NOTES
A. Desire
Imagine:
a) Driving a car — you want to go somewhere. You put your foot on the accelerator, and take your other foot off the brake. And off you go, and reach your destination.
b) you say you want to go somewhere, but your foot is on the brake. You are activating energy that is keeping you stuck where you are. Even though you say you want to go somewhere, your actions (or thoughts or feelings) are opposing that.
c) You say you want to go somewhere, and you put your foot on the accelerator but keep your other foot on the brake at the same time, Or stop and start, stop and start. You don’t get to your destination.
When you say you want something you need to have your foot on the accelerator and take your foot off the brake. This equates to a high level of desire and the least amount of resistance.
Why is it that sometimes it takes ages for the thing you say you want to come? Because the purity of your desiring energy is being tarnished with resistant energy of some kind. Eg you want more time, but you keep saying and feeling that you have no time to do your book-keeping, that’s why you don’t do it. Or you want more money, but like a client of mine the other day who said she wanted more but was frightened of getting it because she thought she would give it away. That’ll keep it from coming to you for sure! Check out the Vibration Meter and Resistance Chart in your handbook.
Use the Whole Goal ex to help you identify resistant energy around something that is not currently happening as quickly as you want. The speed with which your desire happens is down to the amount of desire MINUS the amount of resistance.
What is happening now is a result of how you HAVE been thinking and feeling; hence the importance of changing your thoughts/feelings now, taking care of your future.
Abraham-Hicks: “negative emotion means you have expanded to something you are disallowing with your current negative thought”.
“When you really really want something and you are thinking about your desire and feeling pleasure from the thought, your thought vibration is now in alignment with your desire – and the current from your Source is flowing through you towards your intended desire with no restriction or resistance. We call that allowing. But when you really really want something and are feeling anger, or fear or disappointment, that means you are focused upon the opposite of your desire, and in doing so, you are introducing another non-matching vibration to the mix – and the degree of negative emotion that you are now experiencing indicates the degree of your resistance to the receiving of your desire.” Abraham-Hicks

B. What do you do if you realise you are feeling bad, and you notice the thoughts you’ve been thinking and are thinking are compounding the bad feeling?
Options are:
a) You don’t even notice and experience events as happening to you (easy to be a victim then)
b) you notice, but criticise yourself for being down the other end of the scale and do nothing about it = feel worse
c) you notice, feel bad, realise you need to change it, but somehow can’t manage to do that; choice to feel bad or good about that
d) you notice, identify the feeling, feel good you’ve noticed the negative emotion as a warning bell, and choose to let go of it
e) you notice, identify the feeling, choose to let go , feel better
d) and e) allow you to move forward. With c) best to do something completely different and come back to it all later on.
How do you do d) and e)? Use Emotional Guidance Scale, choose an exercise to do that is appropriate to your current emotional level and do it!
(See handbook for further discussion of this tool and copy of EGS)
C). Process of deliberate creation
1. Ask,
2. Get answered,
3. Receive.
Preparation for Step 1:
a) Remember to plug in: be willing to recognise Divine Energy. Higher Self, God, something greater than you.
b) Switch on: sacred holding. Putting yourself into a place of feeling good and then a space of sacred holding before you ask.
Need to be in an energetically high place first. Create a sacred space inside yourself and around you to help you feel good, connected, stronger, more open. How do you create a sacred holding space?
- Do something that helps you to feel good (walking in nature, listening to some music, reading an uplifting book, listening to an inspiring call), meditate,
- Use candles, meditation, prayers, imagework, visualisation, Place of Peace. Do Book of Positive Aspects.
- Use sentences/thoughts/words to support you (affirmations)
- Use 100 things I want to be, do, have
‘Doing anything from a sacred place elevates the experience”
Step 1 ASK:
Tuning in (to the frequency you want)
Method for asking:
1) Open yourself to another way (“I am willing to see this another way; I see this situation with eyes of love”)
2) Allow light to shine on your situation
3) Trust that your request will be answered
4) Be open to receive and pay attention to signs etc
5) Specify what you want
6) Use useful sentences coming from a place of intention rather than yearning eg
Know when you are asking you are doing it all the time, the real question is how conscious are you of what and when you are asking, and where are you (ie what energetic state are you in) when you are doing the asking?
‘I have been able to see and visualise God’s abundance in my life. I see it even before it arrives, but the knowing that I can make it arrive stems from my inner conviction that I am already connected to what only seems to be missing. This feeling of connectedness propels me to act in such a way as if what I want, wants me. Thus, when I pray, I never attempt to influence God, or ask for favours, or beg God to do something for me while I wait around and do nothing. Instead I use prayer to open the gates of my soul to this divine presence. I’ve used prayer as a way of residing in that one power and not asking God to do something, but rather to be in God consciousness where thoughts of scarcity simply dissolve ad I feel directed to attract the missing pieces of my life like iron filings to a magnet.”
From Wayne Dyer, There is a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem
Step 2: Answer
Trust you will be answered. This is the letting go bit. If you have issues of trust they will show up in your thoughts, feelings and actions getting in the way of what you say you want. Embrace these by allowing the feelings to be there and then work with tools that allow you to let them go.
Step 3: Receive
Listen/create Listen for guidance about a particular situation; watch out for signs that guide you; allow words or sentences to flow instead of ‘trying’ to make it happen. Let yourself be led. Often happens in a quiet space, but not always. Out walking, or when in connection with God in some way or another. In shower; driving; when you’re doing something else.
Inspired Actions for this week:
1. Do the Book of Positive Aspects
Ex: The Book of Positive Aspects
a) choose a book/journal that you love to write in (Adriana’s)
b) favourite pen (all this for feeling good)
c) start with something you always feel good about (what do I like/love/appreciate? Why? Let it flow
d) Read over and enjoy your own words
e) Repeat until 20 minutes has passed
You are activating a much more positive vibration, that’s the point of this exercise.
Following day, do it again. Even if not for 20 minutes, select one topic at least to find the positive aspects in. The more you find, the more you will find; and the more you will look for more. Circular process. Ultimately your relationship with each subject will become richer and more attractive.
2. Practice using the Emotional Guidance Scale
3. Introduce creating a sacred holding into all your business activities
I have used the principles I write about here in RichThinkers to bring about all kinds of things in my life, including running a successful counselling practice and health clinic business. Coming from a place of inspiration has enabled me to bring meaning and magic into all that I do, and my background in psychotherapy and counselling, combined with practical business skills, means I am uniquely positioned to help you in both the inner and the outer levels of success.
