Eliminating toxic thoughts through alchemical transmutation.
If you have studied alchemy, even very briefly, then you most likely understand that on one level it involves turning base metals (usually Mercury) into Gold.
Maybe you have heard of a famous Nicholas Flammel who spent the majority of his life chasing after the proposed key to this secret: the "philosophers stone".
Although this process of turning base metals into Gold may indeed be possible (who is to say?), it is most widely understood by esoteric initiates as a process of INNER transformation.
A process of
"taking the baser (mercurial) elements of a persons own existence, and transmuting them into the higher (golden) elements of divinity" - credit
This creates a synergy, coition, or synthesis with the Microcosm that is you, and the Macrocosm that is the "Infinite all".
Thus it is understood that alchemy at its most fundamental level is a process of inner transformation.
A process of changing the inner world both to change the outer world, or transmute desire.
It is a way of taking what is unwanted - such as a negative energy - and processing it, taking out of it what is useful and creating something pleasant.
Since higher vibrations consume and transform lower ones, we can use the higher vibrations of the higher planes of existence to attain a higher vibration.
Eliminating toxic thoughts
We can "eliminate", or transform any lower thought into a more high vibrationally resonant one.
We can do this by first being aware that we are thinking "toxic", "bad", or unhelpful thoughts.
Awareness is the key to consciousness.
First we become aware of what we are thinking, by not only becoming aware, but BECOMING AWARENESS.
Once we are awareness, we realize what we are thinking - or rather, what we WERE thinking.
We also realize that we were thinking, and now we are not.
Once we realize this we will simultaneously realize that our thoughts were "toxic" and not in alignment with our highest purpose.
Once we realize this, we can transform these thoughts though the art of acceptance, which is also forgiveness.
We can accept these thoughts for what they are - just thoughts.
They are not real and cannot harm us in any way.
We allow them to exist and use the attainment of a high vibration to transform these thoughts.
Through the act of forgiveness, we can forgive what we were thinking, thus transmuting our thoughts.
We can change the very existence of our thoughts,
Thus transforming base thoughts into Gold.

A pefect quotation!
Alchemy is best known for its belief that lead can be transmuted into gold. However, the
transmutation of non-precious metals into gold is simply a metaphor for the soul being freed from a
"dead, leaden state of mind," to that of realizing its own light nature and that is derived from pure
spirit. - credit
