Attractive Attraction

Do you often find yourself worrying about the things you don’t want in your life? Like “I don’t want to be alone forever”, “I don’t want my partner to leave me”, “I don’t want to get to 60 and wonder what if…”, “I don’t want to be poor and struggling for money all the time?”

Fill in the blank: “I don’t want….” We all have them. Too many of them.

The amazing thing is that we spend an awful lot of time focussing on what we DON’T want rather than what we do want. The consequences? We spend a lot more time feeling terrible about where we are and our lot in life and about what the future may NOT bring. What also happens is that we tend to attract more of the things we DON’T want (life’s way of throwing irony in our face). So we’re busy thinking about all the things we DON’T want to happen, feeling pretty miserable, and then all of a sudden we are stuck in traffic jams, bumped into by a cranky shopper in the supermarket with an evil glare, receiving nasty emails from an irate colleague. This leaves us feeling even worse and we may crash the car, a tree branch goes through the roof, and the dog develops a pussy oozing cyst that requires expensive surgery.

Anyone had a week like that?!

Well there is an alternate way of existing. Let’s take the ‘don’t wants’ from the list above and see what it feels like to change them a little…

“I want a loving partner who cherishes me and honours me.”

“I want to experience all of life’s adventures for years to come with my fabulous adoring partner.”

“I want to get to 60 and feel “wow” that was fabulous! I love my life! I love my friends! I want more!”

Feel good? Want to feel even better? Try it from the present tense:

“I have a loving partner who cherishes me and honours me.”

“I am experiencing all of life’s adventures with my fabulous adoring partner.”

“I am 60 and I feel “wow” that was fabulous! I love my life! I love my friends! I want more!”

Notice how you feel reading this last set. This is a place of power and positive intentions. Use this strategy for everything you want - from a parking space near the entrance to the shops, to a new job, to the perfect partner.

Want to learn more about this? Read Lynn Grabhorn’s “Excuse Me, Your LIFE is Waiting”. I mentioned this book in the last edition. A few of you have gone out and are currently devouring it (I told you it was good!) Get it - now! Then tell me what kind of results you are getting with it - I want to hear all the stories!

As for me, I use this technique and I consistently get parking spots with ease, and my contact database doubled my target numbers for the month in one week! Go on - what are you waiting for!

In this article we’ll look at some basic facts around energy, how it affects you and others, and how to make use of this knowledge to foster good health.

The facts, as we’ve been told
Albert Einstein’s work shows us that all matter is energy. Every single thing is made up of tiny bits of energy - bits of neutrons, protons, and a nucleus - all mostly empty space with all the little bits flying around, or vibrating. These little bits arrange themselves in particular patterns to form your body, a table, your coffee mug, and even your thoughts. All energy travels in waves and has different amplitude and frequencies. (Drew Rozell, The Magnet - Law of Attraction newsletter, May 2006 edition).

The indestructibility of energy
Energy cannot be created or destroyed - just transformed in to a different form of energy. E.g. food in tummy turns to muscle, blood, waste, and heat.

The connection of all things
We are all made out of the same ’stuff’- energy. Every thing - live or inanimate - is connected due to the premise that we are all made of the same stuff.

The vibrations of all things
Nothing is in essence ’solid’ or ’still’ - everything is vibrating at a (usually) undetected frequency.

How vibrations affect other things
Energy travels in waves. Energy waves are attracted to other waves of the same frequency. Vibrations create energy waves. Thus things, people, and thoughts of the same frequency of vibrations are attracted to one another.

How vibrations affect your body
Thoughts are energy impulses created when the cells in your brain fire off messages. These energy impulses go through your body in waves. Sometimes the thought-energy waves are of an intense frequency. We call this ‘emotion’ (’energy in motion’).

Thoughts/emotions leave your body as energy waves.This has been measured and photographed in different experiments. See Dr Emoto’s study of the effect of thought on water crystals at http://www.whatthebleep.com/crystals/.

“So thanks for the basic science lesson,” you say, “but what does this mean in practical terms and why should I care?”

Intense emotion with its intense energy wave can affect the body’s cells in a positive or negative way, depending on the frequency. Negative thoughts and emotion tend to have a destructive vibration, while positive thoughts and vibrations invigorate and stimulate the cells. Positive emotions tend to boost your immune system. The saying “laughter is the best medicine” is founded on the science of positive vibrations.

Tune in your antenna
There are waves of energy flowing around and through us all the time. Like a radio antenna, we can tune in to the frequencies we want to ‘listen’ to, and tune out the ones we do not. This is good news because it means we can consciously choose to receive only waves that are good for us, make us feel good, and create a positive experience. We can thus avoid a lot of the nasty vibrations. With awareness comes the opportunity to harness our thoughts and emotions, and therefore our health and ultimately our destiny. It is an exciting place to be in, a fun place to play in!

So how do tune in our antenna to ward off the negative vibes and groove with the good ones?
We need to set our antenna to vibrate at the right frequency. We do this by ensuring we are feeling good vibrations (yes, the Beach Boys were on to something!).

1. Start noticing your body. Do an internal body check when you wake up and when you go to sleep- mentally scan your body for how it feels, any areas of pain, stiffness, soreness, or discomfort. These are clues to disturbances in your thoughts/energy patterns. Focus on the most intense part of the discomfort and just observe. This will help release some of the built up tension there and change the frequency of your mental/emotional vibrations.

2. Start noticing the beauty and abundance around you in small and fleeting things. When driving, set out to see and enjoy beauty - look for it, find it in the sky, the birds, and the colour of the gum leaves. Observing the beauty of nature is a powerful way of ‘tuning in’ to the strength and goodness of the life force. I always feel very connected when I go to my garden and witness the miracle of life surging out of the dirt in the multiple shapes of trees, flowers, vegetables, fruit trees. How do these things do this??? How does a brilliant rose come from the dirt??? This is when I bow to the greater power of the universe and feel completely blessed to be a part of it, to be connected to it.

3. Find joy in small moments, in the very present ‘now’. One of my favourite ways of finding peace is to observe the neighbour’s cat. She saunters in to our garden every day - completely immersed in the moment, looks around, stretches out or curls up in the sun. She has no concern of the past or worry for the future - she simply is. When I pat her and she meows back at me and purrs - the simple delight of sharing a moment of tenderness with another living thing fills me with happiness - in this moment there is no pain, no worry, no fear - it simply ‘is’ - and this feels good. From that place I can then go on to my various responsibilities with greater clarity and calm - something inside me know that the universe is working on a higher plane - from a place that triggers tiny seeds to develop magnificent flowers - and it is in the wonder of this moment I find comfort, connection, safety, and peace.

Take Action Now:
Here are some ways to tune your antenna to “groove”:

1. Here is a 6-minute video on the “Evolution of Dance” that I can guarantee get you giggling and groovin’. You need a computer with sound to fully appreciate this one!

2. Click on this link: www.mayyoubeblessedmovie.com - and sit back and enjoy the reminders of what really matters in life. This is a wonderful video initiative that runs for around two minutes and is a positive and uplifting motivational piece. I liked it; it touched and moved me. Enjoy.

3. Go out in to the wilderness. Nothing inspires like nature. Climb a hill, sit under a tree, walk by a creek. Feel part of this world in all its majesty, brilliance, and beauty.

Laser Thoughts
“When you cannot make up your mind which of two evenly balanced courses of action you should take - choose the bolder.” - W.J. Slim

“Go my sons, burn your books. Buy yourselves stout shoes. Get away to the mountains, the deserts and the deepest recesses of the earth. In this way and no other will you gain a true knowledge of things and of their properties.” - Peter Severinus, 1571 AD

Seven Simple Steps to Attract Abundance and Prosperity Now!

1. Pay attention to what you say - your words indicate what you think and feel.
This is where it all begins and where change can occur. When your thoughts
tell you there isn’t enough, that something is missing, you are in lack
consciousness. Know it’s okay for those thoughts to surface for we all find
ourselves in this place at times, but don’t remain there!

2. As the thoughts of ‘can’t have it’ or ‘not enough’ surface into your consciousness,
visualize a mental garbage pail and toss those thoughts in it. Tell yourself
you know this is not a truth and you no longer need that thought, so you’re
trashing it. Then immediately focus your thoughts on something good.

3. Surrender your dis-empowering thoughts about lack. You’ve recognized their
existence and have begun to toss out those unwanted thoughts, but now ask for
Divine assistance to help you change your thinking. Here’s where your real
power is!

4. Remind yourself that you deserve all the good things you desire. Most
individuals fall down with their manifestation at this point because they genuinely
don’t believe they deserve the good. People who say “What else would you expect?
Things like this always happen to me” are simply saying they don’t deserve the
good so don’t expect it. Duh! So why do you complain when abundance passes you
by since you set yourself up for more lack?

5. Look around at all you presently have and are. Make a physical list of the
things and people who are blessing your life right now and read it daily - your home,
family, health, job, friends, etc. - and everyday things from the easy drive home
from work that day to the neighbor who surprised you by cutting your grass, even
though it was shorter than you like it! Be grateful for everything in your life, including
the extra bill facing you that you’re not sure how you’re going to pay. As you do this
you will see changes in the way you perceive life and the way life responds to you.
Remember, it must be genuine because your spirit knows what your truth is.

6. Now do nothing! That’s right - do nothing. The universe will begin immediately to
bring your desires, but you must get out of the way. This is so hard for most people
because we are used to being in control, thinking we must make things happen. Don’t
do it or you’ll block the flow of abundance that’s on its way to you. When abundance
and you are in alignment it will simply flow effortlessly to you in amazing ways.

7. Say “thank you.” Even though your desires haven’t manifested yet, become grateful
for them before they are seen. By this you are saying you know they will arrive and
you’re acknowledging this as a sign of your belief; this is called faith.

These simple steps will take you to the realm of abundance and prosperity. I know because I’m living proof that it works. Although I say they are simple steps, it is often not an easy task to shift your entire way of thinking and believing. Know that in the beginning it might even be difficult and you may be tempted to give up when doubts creep in. Don’t give up! It’s not something that happens overnight. Success in everything requires taking baby steps to achieve the desired end result. Follow these guidelines listed above and watch the miracles unfold in your life! And as the abundance and prosperity flows to you effortlessly, then move forward through the doors that open to you.

Here are some examples of how to change your thoughts and words from lack to abundance.

Lack: I wish I had the money to buy a new car, or at least one that’s newer with less problems.
Abundance: Thank you for sending the resources to buy the perfect car for me, one that runs beautifully.

Lack: We can’t ever seem to get ahead with our finances.
Abundance: I choose freedom from debt by making wiser choices with my finances.

Lack: There just isn’t enough money; we’re always having so many things break down.
Abundance: I am grateful for the money I have to pay the bills I can and know the rest will come
in Divine timing.

Lack: I hate my job. It is boring but pays the bills so I guess I’m stuck in it.
Abundance: I am grateful for my job but place the intention for a job that allows me creativity and
enjoyment, and gives me my present income or more.

Lack: I’ve been waiting a long time for Mr./Ms. Right. All my friends have someone so why can’t I?
Abundance: I place the intention for my soulmate to show up in the right and perfect timing.

Do not try to figure anything out - no details, no plan, no manipulation. Simply say the words and let it go, then watch all the pieces come together. State exactly what you want. It is really that simple! When it doesn’t work, it is because you got in the way of the Divine flow and blocked it.

Sometimes the easiest things in life seem to be the hardest. Is it because we expect something of value to be hard, that we must work hard to obtain it? Or is it the old thought that it must be too good to be true. I can promise you that the best things in life are free and come without strings attached, and they all come from LOVE!
