I am going to lean toward "Yes" being your answer. What if you shifted your consciousness toward counting your blessings? How would our day unfold differently? What you think about, you bring about.
When you are focused upon what you dislike and what frustrates you, you draw more of the same into your experience.
Today, for every self-deprecating thought you notice, find two thoughts of gratitude for yourself. You are your greatest source of positive change.
What steps can you take to tune out "shoulds" and tune into your authenticity? Do the autumn leaves turn color because they "should?" Who would you be if you could shed your shoulds? How can you mimic nature, just for today?
Key In, allow, be authentic.
When you "try" to do something, you leave a gap that is vulnerable to allowing in what you don't want to experience. Trying leaves room for failing. It creates an excuse for your action not to manifest into your desired outcome.
Today, choose to intend. Couple your intention with a visualization of your desired outcome. Ask yourself, "How will I feel when I have what I want?" Step into intention and action from this feeling place.
Want to join me in my "thank you" practice? I awake each morning and say, "Thank you" several times.
Sometimes I am saying thank you to my body, for arising. I say thank you to morning, thank you to life.
I write correspondence to others to say, "thank you."
Thank you carries with it a powerful energetic vibration. Saying, "thank you" will make you feel great, will elevate your awareness to the vibration of gratitude, and will enhance the energy of the recipient of your gratitude.
My son will often ask when writing correspondence, "Mom, is thankyou one word?" Good question. They surely pair up together well.
What you see is what you get. So why not visualize something that you desire? There is so much power in seeing something unfold in your mind's eye. It paves the way for the existence of that something. We all anticipate the worst case scenario. Today, see the best possibilities!
I've said it before and it is a mantra worth re-visiting. Do you ever get hung up on something that went wrong and simply continue to play back the tape of that scene in your mind? I did this morning. When I was done ranting and desired to let it go, I still had a difficult time doing so. Then I relied on a trusty visualization that generally works very well for me.
I imagine the problem or challenge wrapped inside a helium balloon and then allow it to drift away. Today, the balloon that came to me was black in color and so weighty that it could barely take off. I stuck with my visualization and was finally able to release my feelings around the challenge. Later today, I even laughed about it.
I love the messages even more than the tea!!
