Posted by: | CommentsThis is a wonderful discussion around how other peoples rules become part of our lives from the get go, and how that conditions us to follow other peoples rules throughout our lives. We then explored different ways to determine if it is time for some new rules in your life, and if so, how do you go about determining what works for you.
10 Tips for Diving Into Your Ever Abundant Flow
Posted by: | Comments1. Embrace the idea that the Universe is conspiring WITH you to have what you want.It always sends you what you ask for, every time. (Remember that you asking with your emotions and feelings not just your thoughts)
2. Once you got this, be a pal and tell the Universe what you want by thinking about it and feeling it. Spend time imagining all the things you want to experience, and really get into the feeling of what it would be like to have it. How would it affect your life? What would be different?
3. Ignore reality and tell the story of how you want it to be. It is easy to get caught up in the idea that you are supposed to tell “it like it is” rather than telling the story of what you desire. When you continue to focus on a “reality” that is undesirable to you, you are actually amplifying the energy of that thing and asking for more of the same.
4. Recognize that in every moment, you can focus on the “Good reality” or the “Bad reality”. They both exist with every possible “in between” outcome at all times for every subject. The outcome that you experience is determined by where you are focusing your attention in this broad spectrum of possibilities.
5. Spend time every day amplifying the energy of what you want more of. It is easy! All you need to do is appreciate the things that you are enjoying in your day and the people around you. It could be an s simple as noticing someone’s earrings, or mentioning something you appreciate about your partner. Allow yourself to feel the good feelings that brings up. That is the energy you want more of.
6. Learn to pivot your thoughts from what you don’t want to what you do want. This simple exercise will immediately shift your energy to a more expansive vibration. When you notice yourself focusing on what you do not want, either in conversation or in your head, say, “I clearly know what I Do NOT wants. What is it that I DO want?”
7. Create some quiet “alone time” everyday to slow down and chill out. Meditate, take a walk outside, listen to some music that sooths you, whatever it is that allows you to slow down and connect yourself. Step outside of your usual swirl and re-connect to your center.
8. Hang out with positive, happy people. Spending time with folks who are bitching and complaining only brings you down. Find a group of people who are focused and talking about living the life you want to create. Stay away from groups that focus on what you are not wanting. For example, do not join a group protesting war, but rather join a group that supports peace.
9. Make it your mission to notice the abundance that already exists in your life. Notice that you have food and cloths and a roof over your head. Be thrilled that you found a penny in your couch. See the abundance of love you have for your pets and that they give you back. Be thankful for the coffee someone bought you, or the lunch you got at your meeting at work. If you start looking for the abundance, I guarantee that you will begin to see it all around you.
10. Have fun! Laugh and Play! Enjoy your friends and family!
Thought for the day: You Never get it done.
Posted by: | CommentsWhen the desire is born, right away you start counting yourselves a failure, because you’ve got this desire that hasn’t been satisfied. Know that you never get it done! And since you never get it done, it’s time to stop being unhappy about what’s undone, because most of it is undone! You are an eternal being. Most of it is undone. Instead of taking score about what’s been achieved — we want you to start feeling anticipation about what is still to arrive…
~From Abraham-Hicks
I like this.
Wanting something, or having a feeling of desire for something often leads you down the path of focusing on what is missing.
I know that I used to get caught up in the feeling of lack around what I wanted. I would have a desire for something different to show up in my life and then I would spend my time noticing how it was not there yet and trying to ‘figure out’ what I needed to do to make it show up.
When I started going deep into working with the Law of Attraction and Manifestation, I realized that by focusing on how things were not showing up yet, I was basically keeping what i wanted from coming into my experience.
It is all about the energy that I am embodying, and when I notice what is not showing up or is missing, and I focus attention there…even if I am tying to ‘make it happen’…. I am really just noticing the lack and that is what I get more of. What you focus on expands into your reality.
This is where faith and trust in the process comes in. Now I operate from the place of knowing that the Universe is conspiring with me to bring me all that I desire. My job is to have the desire for something and feel the energy of it. Then sit back and enjoy the ride.
Thought for the Day: Where is your attention flowing ?
Posted by: | CommentsLaw of Attraction 101: What you focus on expands into your reality.
Simple enough.
Most people are spending their time focusing energy on what they do not want and what is not working for them. They are very busy trying to fix it or are spending a lot of time and energy pushing against what they do not want.
In a way this is CRAZY! You are amplifying the energy of what you do NOT WANT by doing this. Every time you call up your friend and tell the story about how your job sucks, or you don’t have enough money, or how your partner never does the dishes you are essentially telling the Universe that you want more of that. ( joining support groups and online chat forums about what you do not want is amplifying the energy too.)
You want something to be different….focus your energy on how you want it to be.
Re-Write your story so that it has the outcome that you desire.
Call your friends up and tell the story of all the goodness that you see and will have in your life.
Talk about the things you are thankful for.
Join groups that support and talk about what you are wanting to create or wanting more of.
So…where is your attention flowing????
How to Defy the Box: Step 2. Question Everything
Posted by: | CommentsWhen talking about the “Box “, I am referring to all the stories, thoughts and ideas that you hold about how the world works and who you are. Somewhere along the line you “agreed” that these stories, thoughts and ideas were true and you set out to live your life by them.
What makes them true?
You believe them.
Are they really true?
Not necessarily, but your believing that they are true gives them lots of power over you.
This is why a vital step in breaking free from the box is to begin questioning all your beliefs and stories about how the world works and who you are supposed to be. Most of these stories and beliefs that you agreed to are based on assumptions, your taking things personally, or you heard something over and over from someone else and you just took it to be true. You never gave yourself the opportunity to determine if this “agreement” actually worked for you. This is why many people are struggling to live a life that does not feel good to them.
Here is a general guideline that you can follow: If something in your life does not feel good, take some time to consider why you are doing what you are doing.
Ask yourself these questions:
Why do I need to do this?
What is really happening here?
Is it something I am supposed to do?
Am I attempting to be someone I think I am supposed to be?
Who decided that this was the thing for me?
Is it working for me? If not, what would?
What do I want to experience?
What would feel good to me?
This line of self-inquiry will help you get in touch with what it is that YOU want in life and will allow you to be conscious of what your stories are. Once you begin to identify what your stories and beliefs are, you are in a position to re-write them to support the life you want to live.
