Things That Block Your Blessings: 8 Surprising Behavior

You’re manifesting wholeheartedly. You’re scripting, vision boarding, saying affirmations, visualizing, and even putting in the right action. Still your blessings are not arriving as if someone has put a curse on you! Relatable? That someone can be you! Here’re 10 things YOU do that block your blessings!

Surprised? Yes, sometimes you block your own blessings. Even if you’re living a righteous life, never hurting a soul, always being mindful of Karma, and keeping your vibe high, there are some spiritual pitfalls you might not know about.

There are things that create energetic blockages and resistance, and by indulging in these activities or behavior, you block your own blessings!

These might seem insignificant or commonplace behavior, something that everyone can be guilty of in this day and age, but if you want to materialize your blessings and live in alignment with your higher self and the Universe, you must stop doing these right now!

So, what are these things that block your blessings ? Let’s get into them now!

8 Spiritual Things That Block Your Blessings

Here are eight surprising things that are blocking God’s blessings meant for you!

1. Taking Pleasure In Others’ Misfortune

Sometimes you block your own blessings by simply gossiping about the misfortunes of others! Yes, what you thought a harmless chat by the water cooler can be blocking your manifestations if your chat was giving you pleasure by talking about a team member who got sacked.

Maybe you were not fond of that person or maybe they were difficult to deal with. But when you get pleasure from the misfortune of others, it eats at your positive vibe.

Instead, talk about others’ victories and small wins. Hype people up! Celebrate their achievements. This will bring your blessings closer to you! 

2. Fixating On What Went Wrong

You had 5 cups of milk. 3 of them toppled over and milk was spilled. Now what will you do? Cry over the spilled milk or thank your good luck that you still have 2 cups of milk! Most people will hyper focus on the 3 cups, that is what went wrong in their life, instead of feeling grateful for all that is going right for them! This kind of behavior is the reason behind blocked blessings!

3. Holding On To Relationships That Devalues You

Sometimes you give and give and give. Pour your last drop into a relationship but receive nothing in return. The other person devalues you and you keep on chasing them. They keep shining in their life and your light goes off.

You think to yourself, why is God punishing you for loving someone truly? My dear, you have committed a sin; you have betrayed yourself by holding on to those who didn’t choose you.

Let go. Now. Stop devaluing God’s honor by letting yourself be used, abused, or taken for granted. You are God’s creation. Prioritize yourself!

4. Disrespecting Yourself By Not Setting Boundaries That Respect You

It’s great to be available for your friends, colleagues, and family. If you have a divine gift of empathy, a healing aura, or a sensitive nature, most likely people will want a piece of you. They would want to share their stories with you, vent to you, complain about their partners to you, ask for your suggestions, and so on. That’s okay, but only up to a certain limit.

After that you need to set a boundary. You need to send a message that you too need your personal space and time; to heal, to recharge, to be with your loved ones, and to connect with the almighty. If they can’t respect that, they don’t respect you, and if you can’t enforce these boundaries, then you don’t respect yourself enough.

If you can’t respect yourself, you are again disrespecting the higher powers and this surely can be a reason behind your blocked blessings. People who knowingly violate your boundaries can block your blessings, if you allow them to!

5. Living In Mess

Decluttering is important not only for your physical hygiene, but also for your spiritual health! An unorganized space blocks the positive energy flow and stops your blessings from manifesting. The simple act of making your bed in the morning can be a transformative thing if you think about it.

So, if you’re living in a mess and not keeping your space tidy, you are blocking your own blessings! A clean space vibrates with good energy, invites more positive energy, channels it into you, and remains aligned with your personal vibe. This expedites manifestations. So, remember to organize, cleanse, and recharge your living space regularly!

6. Negative Self-Talk

It’s healthy to feel bad about something you did wrong. But beating yourself up, constantly berating yourself, and talking to yourself negatively is not. It creates shame, guilt, avoidance, repression, and more negativity. Instead, encourage yourself and gently remind yourself to do better next time.   

7. Engaging With Negative People

Do you spend a lot of time trying to cheer up a friend that’s always complaining about something or the other in their life? Or do you engage a lot with people online, trying to talk some sense into them when they show hate, bigotry, or bias? 

While you might think doing both of those things are good Karma, you block your own blessings by indulging with toxic and negative people. They spread their negativity into you and dim your light. Instead, go for a social media detox, connect with people who are on the right path, and engage more with those who help you shine brighter!

8. Not Breaking Your Old Patterns

We can fall into repetitive behavioral patterns that stem from sadness, emotional wounds, loneliness, pain, or trauma. That’s natural. However, after a certain point, we all need to identify our patterns and break those unhealthy ones that keep us stuck in the past. Our past was not our responsibility but our future is! If you do not make an effort to break your repetitive patterns and develop healthy ones you will never come into the perfect alignment which facilitates manifestations! So, stop blocking your blessings and start making better choices!
