The Whole Mama

Well Spring is well and truly here and so is that wonderful drive to clear away anything that doesn’t serve me or my family and draw in an abundant life that does.

At home, I installed a fire pit in my garden last week and my kids and I have already had our first barbeque on it and spent almost every night since sitting around it’s warmth enjoying the night and firelit dinners together. I don’t quite remember a British Spring that’s seemed so warm and inviting to be in Nature since I arrived here and I’m enjoying it as much as I can. The fire’s also been the focus of some deep ceremonies that I’ve done to release patterns and beliefs that don’t serve me, as well as a lot of grief, disappointment and sadness that I have experienced recently.

As it’s only a few days away to Christmas and this time of year brings up a lot of issues for a lot of people related to family or finances or other festive stresses, I thought I’d post this great video by Brad Yates to help with magic tapping those stresses away so that you can find it easier to focus on what you do want rather than whatever you are finding stressful in your current situation.

Wishing all my readers a wonderful Christmas filled with abundance and joy and happy memories to look back on as you head towards the end of the year.

The realization that something is not as you want it to be is an important first step, but once you have identified that, the faster you are able to turn your attention in the direction of a solution, the better, because a continuing exploration of the problem will prevent you from finding the solution. The problem is a different vibrational frequency than the solution—and all thoughts (or vibrations) are affected by (or managed by) the Law of Attraction.

This is why I focus so much on identifying what you do want and then living it in your mind and like the monthly manifestation group I meet with to end on that note. In a book I’m reading at the moment, they call it “virtualizing” instead of “visualizing” as you want to experience it in your mind as if you are in the experience and living it completely, all senses plus emotions, not just watching a movie of it like you might do in visualizing.  It’s a technique I’ve used for a long time, but I love their name for it.

When you’re virtualizing, and can keep on daydreaming your end result and ignoring the negative feelings your current situation brings up, you’re on the way to changing your reality for the one you are imagining.

Experiencing in your mind the way you’d like your life to be and feeling those feelings and expecting it to be possible and even likely, creates a channel for it to travel down towards you.  You allow your dream to show you the first little step that you need to take to help make it happen (inspired action) from where you are, as well as orchestrating the people and resources for you to make it almost effortless to achieve your desired outcome.

Manifesting is 80% about getting the thoughts and feelings (and so, the vibration) right and only 20% about DOING to make it happen.

I was watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and my husband said that, clearly Roald Dahl had no idea about the Law of Attraction as there was no way that Charlie would ever have found the ticket as the preceding scenes had shown how very pessimistic he was and how stuck in disappointment and despair he and his family were.

But I explained how it was completely in line with Law of Attraction.

When Charlie experienced his huge desire to find a ticket and go into the chocolate factory, his Inner Being was immediately in alignment with that and expanded and had already created the reality of Charlie finding a golden ticket. However, when Charlie believed that he wouldn’t or felt disappointed that he hadn’t when he opened his birthday chocolate, he was out of alignment with what his Inner Being already knew to be true. Which is why he felt the negative feelings so strongly, the contrast was so huge, as his feelings were telling him that he wasn’t looking in the direction of his desire.

All the Law of Attraction needed, was a very small window of allowing, to be able to manifest for Charlie the reality of his immense desire for what he wanted. When he picked up the coin from the road, he immediately jumped from despair and disappointment to hope and that put him in a complete state of allowing so that he could receive his desire from Source and he found the golden ticket in the chocolate bar he bought with the coin from the pavement.

If you have an immense desire and you have been nurturing that desire and you can feel the strong contrast between where you are and where you wish to be, know that the negative feelings are simply showing you that you’re not focusing on what you want in your thoughts and self talk. You need only to bring yourself into a state of allowing to give Source the possibility of manifesting your desire. You need only to remove the doubt that it’s possible.

How are you feeling right now? What are you thinking about right now?

Wouldn’t it be nice if …. you could be, do or have this thing you’re desiring?

Try listing the details of your dream, preceded by “Wouldn’t it be nice if …”

How does that feel?

Better I hope.

Wouldn’t it be nice if … hmmm … I’m off to do some allowing

An accumulation of clips where Will Smith talks about his mindset, his work ethic, his approach to success. It just echoes everything I’ve been enjoying in The Vortex by Abraham-Hicks, The Science of Getting Rich Program, The Jackrabbit Factor by Leslie Householder and many many others. 10 minutes of happy inspiration by such a passionate, articulate man. Thanks to Will Smith and to Akira for compiling them.
