The Law of Attraction and Me: Know what? I've found that life IS a bowl of cherries after all and pits are really new seeds to sow. Who knew? The only thing to do is determine is what type and quality of fruit you want to harvest. After years of struggling and trying to force my spiritual and personal growth and arrive at awakened consciousness, I discovered I had been taking the hard road for too long. It was when I surrendered the struggle, concluding that it wasn’t worth it (too much pain, not enough gain) that I found the philosophy and tools to get there with ease and flow. I had been taking the reverse route. Like driving my car in reverse and expecting to arrive ahead of where I was currently standing. Discovering that spiritual and personal growth are by-products of a life of joy and not the other way around, intrigued me to say the least. Find joy first….hmmm. what a concept! The idea that there was a way which facilitated ease, flow and joy in my life STARTING RIGHT NOW, thrilled and delighted me though, admittedly, I also had some resistant feelings about it (EFT to the rescue). One part of me resonated deeply with this philosophy but the other part said "Yeah right. It can’t be that easy". This, of course, comes from the idea that to embrace such a thing, I’d have to admit that I had wasted a lot of years doing it the hard way. And we are oh so reluctant to make such admissions…. I got over it! If this philosophy was valid then I’d be able to create my world and my life exactly how I wanted it to be – and have fun in the process. Could it be true? Well, there was only one sure way to find out and that would be to make it my personal experience. So, I decided to suspend all other beliefs I had about how these things work and proceeded on the assumption that this premise is indeed true. I put these things to the test and was amazed at what happened. Now, the philosophy I’m talking about – Law of Attraction – was not something new to me. In fact, I had been working with it for many years. Many hits, many misses….and that’s what I couldn’t understand. Why did it work sometimes and not others? I was befuddled. I had studied and applied the law of attraction from many teachers before and was quite familiar with the meaning of the phrase "You create your own reality" but it wasn’t until I was exposed to the teachings of Abraham-Hicks that I really got the missing pieces for me. Abraham-Hicks introduced me to the Art of Allowing and that was huge. I found out all about resistance and how the resistance I had on certain subjects were keeping me from realizing that which I wanted. In addition, no-one had delivered the message quite so clearly or succinctly before. Though I had previously manifested many things I wanted I cannot tell you what a difference the Abraham teachings were to me and the difference they made in my life. Of course, in order to have successes with LOA you have to apply it and A-H certainly offer many processes to apply it in your everyday life. Abraham is a group of entities in the non-physical channeled through Esther Hicks. They are wise, fun and very enlightening. To find out more about Abraham and LOA, visit www.Abraham-Hicks.com where you will find a plethora of free information. In addition, they offer - as I do - many processes to help you put this law into effect in your everday life. They also offer a free introductory CD; you only have to pay shipping costs. Although I had previous created many wonderful things in my life already with what I knew of Law of Attraction, the process was long and slow leading me to occasionally forget about using it. Consequently, I would fall back into old ways and again leave in the wake of my successful outcomes a road paved with pain, self-flagellation, disappointment and, at times, even discouragement. What a wonder to discover that it doesn’t have to be that way. That it is much easier than we think it is. Joy, abundance, success, awesome relationships, well-being, vibrant health, much greater self-esteem, self-love, more of everything I want……. especially, fun, fun, fun. I get to be like a kid again and create daily joy in my everyday life as well as manifesting more things that I desire. What could be better than that? Is it a magic wand? No! Do I have to put in some practice? Yes! If I’m willing to do that, does it pay off? A resounding YES! Can anyone do it? Yes! What does it take to get started? The choice to do so. That does not mean that if you choose ‘not’ to do so that there is anything wrong with you. We come here into this physical plane with varied reasons for being here and what we want to accomplish. Our individuality is very valuable. We are all loved and we are all precious. We don’t want to be doing something just because others are. We want to be comfortable to make our own choices no matter what that looks like to someone else. That is our heritage. No matter what our choices, we each come from the Source which created us. We are all imbued with the power of that Source regardless of how we choose to use it. If someone is living on the street it does not mean that they are doing that which they do not want to be doing. It does not mean that they do not have the same power at their disposal. It’s just a choice. However, if you are someone who wishes to have a certain type of life and you are in pain or discomfort because you are not living that life, it may because you have not yet found the tools and processes to help you attain it. Generally, this is because we are not yet ready. When we are ready, we make an internal choice and when we do, the method(s) to accomplish it, comes to us. The method may change from person to person but nothing will happen until the choice is made. You may have heard it said many times that ‘no choice’ is still a choice. This is true but it is often implied that something is wrong with making the choice of ‘no choice’. This is a fallacy. You are free to make any choice INCLUDING ‘no choice’ or as Abraham would say ‘default choice’. There is nothing wrong with you even if you choose ‘default choice’ for the rest of your days on this planet. You have free will. Do not allow others to judge what you choose to be ‘wrong’. It is all good. No-one lives in your shoes; has your experiences or desires. They cannot know what is right for you. YOU are the only one who knows what is right for you and when or if to change it. Ignore others' negative judgments of you. More importantly, release your own self-judgments. You ARE perfect as you are....but you can have more fun! I work with people who are aware that they are not living in the way they desire to and have made a decision to do something about it. Not because they ought to but because they are clear on where they want to go or at least, that they do not want to remain in their current paradigm. In other words, the ones who are asking for change and are willing and eager to create that change. The ones who are ready to ‘play’ at life. You can reach your desired ideal state or condition but they are usually temporary. Why? Because even when we reach that place we have long desired to reach, we discover that there is something else that we want. We have long been told that there is something wrong with that. "Always wanting, wanting, wanting." Well, guess what? We’re supposed to be this way. It’s natural. Each desire we have expands the entire Universe. We get what we want and then we reach for the next thing to focus upon. In the words of Martha Stewart "it's a good thing". It generates passion and passion is life! The primary tool I use in conjunction with LOA is Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) which is a method of tapping on the meridian pathways in a particular algorithm to dissipate old belief patterns which may be keeping you ‘stuck’ in your old paradigm. In other words, resistant to change. If you are one of those who are interested in the pain-free and joy-filled method to freedom, call or email me at: Tel: 480-460-7452. Email: genushift@cox.net I give a free half-hour consultation to allow you to determine if this is the next best path for you.
Sessions are one-on-one or in groups via telephone (with some email support), via email or in-person. |
