Hi all and welcome Golden82,

I was feeling pretty flat a week ago and noticed a few things going wrong so I've trying to raise my vibration. Today I find out if our way office will close for 6 weeks under stage 4 restrictions. Yes, I'm a little anxious but I'm leaving it in the hands of God and The Universe. I can't control it and rying to focus on a positive outcome ,which could present in many ways. I'm grateful for all the extra hours I did pre lockdown as I was able to put some money a aside which will be handy now. Whatever is meant to be will be. I am trusting in The Universe.

Hi CMF,

I've found the idea by Stephen Covey of drawing a circle on paper & writing ALL the things that are WITHIN our influence / control inside that circle and those outside our control on the outside of that circle VERY helpful over the past few decades.

At the break up of our family I did this with the kids and stuck this circle behind the toilet door for all to look at while they're seated lol.

I had to do it again for us during the 'stay at home period' for months. All 8 of us still had to work outside the home alot (being essential services) and there was little structure to our days to begin with, being called in to work for extra shifts to keep services happening. This who were at highest risk were off completely.

Our health was a primary thing we put inside our circle. Our physical AND mental health.
Our daily routine was shot but we formulated individual routines. Ofcourse supporting our elderly neighbours more was added.

I employed ALOT of people during this time and spent all my savings doing so. I imagined a flow of this energy ie money and the conduit of our bank accounts as a far reaching web connecting & supporting others as well as ourselves. My account is nearly up there again surprisingly lol because I took half pay leave to free myself up and provide jobs for others. I'm now 3d per week, so almost same pay level.

Energy comes in many forms. Our recipe thread grew in this time lol! Making wholesome nutritious foods is great for our energy levels.

I Pray The Universe responds beautifully to your new situation CMF. Sending ALL positive energy lovely lady.

Welcome golden!

EM

Thank you Em

You are an inspiration. We'll my office manager called. Our office will be closed unsure whether will have a couple of people on site, but regardless we will all be paid as normal for the next 6 weeks. I'm overwhelmed, actually had a little cry. I love my job and work hard. I never have and never will take for granted the generosity of the company .

OH WOW CMF just wow!

Can we all say a HUGE YIPPEE! well I just did lol.

Pushing it out there, good energy, happiness, smiles, health and abundance.

Are you planning to do anything different while you're at home CMF? We have a fun Recipes thread and Gardening thread here too.

Oh and I forgot to say what happens when you draw your Circle of Influence..... it WIDENS!

It's just like magic lol!

I did this enthusiastically for my career about 25y ago and I was promoted 4 times in the next 2 years.... you have to be careful what you wish for lol.

Congratulations CMF. I'm so freaking happy for you.

Love EM

Dear CMF,

Did you know that your attitudes, thoughts, expectations, and beliefs, like a magnet, attract everyone and everything that enters your life, positively and negatively? That's true. Known by spiritual and philosophical teachers since the beginning of time, the “law of attraction” is incredibly powerful.

Before saying “privacy” to make it work for you, it’s important to determine your current state of mind and how it relates to your life right now. What affects your current emotional state and thought patterns? Secret Is it anxiety, anger, worry, fear, and/or frustration? If so, then these negative thoughts and feelings are the experiences that will bring you into your life.

Fortunately, there is a very effective solution. What is the "secret" of attractive laws working for me? Meditation. To manifest a life full of positive experiences you must change your thinking which should be done from the core: the subconscious level of your mind.

Once meditated, anxiety, worry, frustration and fear will block your thought processes, your new-looking mind-kingdom with crystal clear thinking will open the door to easy expression of what you want, be it love, health or wealth, More friends or success.

Hi Mark rhn, welcome to the forums and what a spectacular opening post!

I love what you reminded us all of.

Do you have any particular guided meditations which are your favourites?

I love the guided meditations by Dr Joe Dispenza, they really take me away quickly.
I found after a using them alot that I was easily able to access the quantum field in my mind even whilst driving lol.

Then ofcourse life got "busy" and all too often this important practice gets put to one side.

Today I really "felt it" ie the lack of a centered mind.

I know I need to meditate.

Although I had a nap and just before that I thought of what I wanted to happen and lo and behold a text was there when I woke up offering something that would remediate a specific stressor in our lives. Pretty miraculous really.

The night from then on flowed more freely.

More of Dr Joe before bedtime now lol.

Welcome again Mark rhn.

I would love to hear more of your stories around the Law of Attraction.

EM

Wow, just stumbled back onto this thread, and as usual, it's amazing to read everyone's stories and progress. Visualisation is something I really need to get better at for example, and that takes practice and...getting over yourself and not taking yourself or your doubts about to seriously, I think. Just enjoy the enjoyable thoughts, so to speak. Cheers everyone!

Hi Tay100!

Absolutely Visualisation is SUCH a powerful thing to be able to do. For me it's been essential in achieving my goals or more than.

I bought Shakti Gawain's book "Visualisation" about 30y ago and it was an easy read about her journey up till then with Visualisation... probably spelt with a z but there you are lol.

A few ways you can really boost your ability to visualise is to:
* create a Vision Board. Print out pics of all the things you want... and / or draw them / paint them... whatever you like. I actually put lists in my notes section and one list was of my next partner (lol!), he came into my life and was SO MUCH FAR MORE BRILLIANT than I could have ever imagined. We're engaged now which is so sweet.
* Put together a Dream Folder like a Vision Board but in a folder that you can flick through and concentrate on each page. You can add or take out any pages whenever you want.
It's also more private. 😉

EM

Hi Mark. Tay and EM,

I really needed to read all your words tonight. My vibration is low.

Thank you all so much

Cmf x

Hey CMF!

What's hapnin?

Are you okay?

I felt really low one night this week and had a freaking nap lol.
When I woke up my mindset changed.

Had a horrible set of discoveries last weekend and after thinking I'd dealt with it.... kinda - well I thought I had lol... I triggered 3 x today ugh!

Tonight I'm "wobbly" - too much happening all at once.

Do you know the strangest thing that really makes my mindset change???
No laughing lol...
putting on some of the latest music my kids like (only pleasant memories with those) and cleaning my windows!
And mirrors!

For some reason I really pick up after cleaning the windows.... go figure.
No way could I clean them all in one go.
Just the ones I look through all the time.

My eldest D has begun getting into meditation again.
She found a really strange one that seems to lift her well.
I'll text her for the name.

I was happy she asked for a Dr Joe Dispenza book... she took the first one tonight.
"Evolving your brain".

That man is a miracle.

Sending lots of love and a billion blessings your way CMF!!!

Love EM

Dear Em,

Do you have any particular guided meditations which are your favorites?

is it your question .. am I right?

yeah, I have some favorites meditations guided. These are given below for you.

• MEDIATOR ROLES
  
  Role of the Mediator:
  The Mediator aims to facilitate open communication between you and your ex-partner so that you can:
• identify issues of the dispute;
• generate options to address these issues; and
• agree upon ways to resolve the issues (i.e. ‘settlement’).

The Mediator’s role is essentially a neutral one. The Mediator will:

• not take sides;
• work with both you and your ex-partner to help you negotiate your own decisions together; and
• not represent either of you in Court either before or after the Mediation;
• not provide legal advice.
  
  
  
  Characteristics of Mediation
• All decisions in mediation will be made by you and your ex-partner, not the Court or anyone else.
• Mediation will help you to identify important issues that relate to your assets and finances and/or care arrangements for your children.
• Mediation is readily accessible, making it fast and efficient.
• Mediation is a popular form of alternative dispute resolution.

Hope you will be benifited.

Thanks,

Mark rhn

I have just found this thread and have been reading.
I may be a bit slow but this law of attraction and ask and it is given
whem something g bad happens how does that work as we dont ask for bushfires.

i have asked for many things this year and received nothing what dies mean. I am not asking the right questions or maybe not everyone can have what they ask for.
Very interesting CMF. I will reflect and read more.

Hi Quirky...."Ask and It Is Given" by Esther and Jerry Hicks is a good one to start with....also have a look at The Secret, both book and DVD. You may be pleasantly surprised....I was.

Or Google up "Law of Attraction" quotes...they're good to browse through....I love the old quote from..(can't quite remember.)...either Henry Ford or one of the old US Presidents...

"Whether you think you can, or think you can't..you are right!!"

Moon

thanks for your suggestions. I may look for the book at my op shop, I am open to new ideas.

Hi Mark rhn... not sure about the "Mediator" information lol! Been there done that, went to Court lol. Got the kids 100% awesome! (Maybe your brilliant post was meant for another thread?)

My all time FAVOURITE Meditations are those by Dr Joe Dispenza. All guided to be in the quantum field of endless possibilities. I LOVE THESE to bits.

Decades ago I bought Shakti Gawain's "Creative Visualisation" and it was amazing to read and use.

Plus ofcourse Meditation classes esp those led by Buddhist Monks and Yoga teachers.

EM

quirky, you are AMAZING. 😍

As you may remember we lost our home to fire when I was young. Lived in a shed with no running water & a pit toilet up the hill for 10y plus the rest - donated clothing, food vouchers.

I worked so hard to make sure that kind of thing would never happen again to me and my family.

It's happened twice since. Homeless, bare bones, Church food.

No one would EVER say to me that I deserved that (even though some horrible people HAVE lol). No one would EVER say to you that you "attracted" bushfires. If they do, they need their head read. Flick 'em.

Not ignoring the trauma because that's real in itself; I've had a Counsellor for years now & sought specialist trauma therapy this year too. The severe triggers are minimised now.

We have NOW. The precious present. We have a path of our own making & SO many forks in our paths to make decisions about. Do we turn left or right or go straight ahead?

Where do we even START from "ground zero"? whatever that is for us.

We begin with our MIND.

Training your mind takes enormous discipline & steely pointed precise focus.

We cannot afford to have anyone sway us off of the path we KNOW is for us.

I just came out of around 6y of back to back and concurrent Court cases. 5 Courts. Same demon.
I FOCUSSED.
When EVERY single person, including all the costly Lawyers & Barristers, were telling me I couldn't keep going & I couldn't win.
I Prayed "Dear God PLEASE show me the path! I think I know I should keep going but everyone on earth is telling me not to! I am alone in this battle. IF I should stop, put a block on my path, if I should forge ahead please put the next BEST person in my path to help me. In Your name, it will be so. Amen." That type of thing for years.

The best person was always put in my path.
I won magnificently. 😎
Legal eagles were shocked. 😂

Start with a dream folder. Put EVERY SINGLE THING in there you want!
This helps keep your focus.

Watching "The Secret" over & over again helps alot.
Strategies to get out of a funk & lift you up are so important.

Keep those vibrations HIGH.

When I had nothing. When I had lost everything. I looked down at my legs that worked & out at my arms that worked. Then looked up and said Thank You GOD. I am so grateful!
I still do this now when I'm overwhelmed.

Being grateful for what we DO have is the point to start.

Where there is breath, there is Hope and Hope Anchors the Soul.

Love & billions of Blessings
EM

Hi all,

Love this thread, and hope this is okay to write even though at the surface it may look to be the opposite of attracting. BUT last night I watched a Youtube on the power of walking away, and omg am I glad I watched it. I think I knew all this stuff in my head, gut etc but for whatever reasons I have not acted on it. In a nutshell it is about if someone is disrespecting you/not valuing you - then value yourself enough to walk away. You get one life and too much time is spent investing into people who are not invested in you. Gosh, this has been me my whole 38yrs. And I still don't learn the lesson. I have 'friends' who arrange for coffee and then just ghost for a few weeks or months - so do not set a definite for the coffee and disappear, only to send a msg months later and rinse and repeat. Occasionally we will catch up, but this pattern continues. And other 'friends' who expect me to change plans for them, but I am always an afterthought. I have known for many years - to 'clean out my closet' of these types - but when you have no-one it makes it tricky. But this Covid has highlighted for me I do in fact have no-one AND no-one is much better than disrespect. I think because the disrespect that I have allowed shows me what I think of myself. No respect for myself - sort of oh, well you should be grateful to have them as 'friends' etc. But NO. And by not accepting this anymore and walking away - although alone completely - allows me to fake it to make it (because unfortunately I am not at a point of valuing myself yet) - and also frees up space and energy for new, similar souls out there to come into my circle. I hope this waffle makes sense. You all seem much more together than me - I just have to stay committed to this walking away... and starting a clean slate - true to myself and honouring, respecting and valuing myself. I would truly recommend watching one of those walking away videos if you haven't already. Kind wishes to all.

Hi golden82

I'm glad you found this thread and your YouTube adventure about 'walking away' sounds really good!

Oh yeah I've got plenty of friends that do that but I am probably the same. So we catch up over the phone or via text.

Not having FB or any social media by choice means my contact is IRL or via phone or text.
We're good with that. Since most of my friends are ones I've had for over 40y, "life" gets in the way of keeping high contact. Most of us have kids and grandchildren now plus most by far are still working.

But I completely agree about walking away when you feel disrespected. I did that last year to one of those friends. She had become very abusive, so I went NC. Plus I found out she'd been lying alot and I can't do a relationship with one of those types of people.

Have you also seen the "Quotes I like" thread - I LOVE that one too!

You know the funny thing I just realised about myself is that I have repeatedly said how I love nature, the environment and wildlife.... you have to be careful what you say on repeat lol... I have SO many trees to manage now and I watched a male Brush Turkey destroy my piles of branches AGAIN this week, all week. I 'attracted' this lol.

Have you got any ideas about how you'll meet new people? (Beyond here because we're all pretty awesome lol).
I'm a little too comfortable with my own company... as my children are becoming more independent, I have been thinking alot about making new IRL connections. All my research for community groups came to a dead end, some due to covid, others simply not suitable or closed completely.

I'll get there. What are your ideas golden82?
EM

Great thread. I’m not saying positivity will cure everything but seeing the world in a more positive manner for me does help. If I’m feeling positive I’ll lift those around me. If I’m feeling negative and let it show, others will be more negative towards me. Life is undoubtedly tough and we all face a myriad of challenges. By learning to view challenges as opportunities and obstacles rather than just giving up I have certainly improved.

Hi EM,

Thanks for responding to my post. Yes, I also like the quotes thread, and have seen you active on there too. I am not into tech and this is my first foray into online. Like you, I don't have any fb or social media accounts. My only social interactions are the occasional (very occasional) coffees as I mentioned. But through this 2020 year I have come to realize to keep those people in my life is no longer serving me. They have full lives with their families. I do not - they are aware of my narc abusive family of origin and that I am alone and struggling. Still they do not reach out. It is a very unbalanced 'friendship' whereby it means something to me but clearly not so much to them. But really I think sometimes I just keep hanging on so as not completely alone. However, I would rather be alone than with people that do not value me/enough. When you are alone you can focus on yourself and grow.

I don't plan to seek groups/friends. I think I will just keep on my path of trying to self-help/learn more about what I have gone through to help me process why I have 'coped' the way I have. Only the last couple of years have I been able to understand this connection, rather than continuing to blame myself for an eating disorder. I have a long way to go still. But also learning about and finding myself - the true me. Not what has been expected/projected onto me. I am interested in all this thread kind of stuff. Always have been, but suppressed..I think by cutting loose those old ties, investing in myself and my interests that there will be a better energy around me and free space and in this way I will 'attract' the right people into my circle. I think some people say I will find my tribe lol. But I would rather stand alone than remain stuck in the same patterns with the same people that just do not value my presence enough. I have thought this a long time, but always second guess myself. Comfort in familiarity, like a security blanket. And also zero self-worth, not believing I should be worth more or be valued or have a better life. However, the more time passes and I remain depressed like this, it keeps pushing me towards my true path I think.

I love nature too - haha yes 'be careful what you wish for'. Your life sounds very full. Almost like you have twice as many hours or more than the rest of us. Perhaps just by staying true to yourself and your path you will find your IRL tribe too? Without needing to actively seek it out. Warm regards :)

Hi all,

Great to see so many contributing and enjoying this thread. I will try and catch up at some stage. Been working from home, home schooling,and unwell this week so having some down time. EM is a gem here, thanks for keeping it all going.

Talk soon

Hi SapereAude

It really happens doesn't it, when we are feeling positive we can lift others around us.

I have a Song Playlist with some of my favourite 40 songs lol... I'm about to cull again.

I love UPBEAT songs and listen to these when I'm gardening or whenever.

On the way to work each morning I love listening to my Christian Radio station, the modern songs are AWESOME and make my soul feel replenished. It puts me in a great state or higher vibration than I am if I don't listen to it.

Is there anything you do to make you feel more positive?
Especially if you're feeling down?

Many Blessings!
EM

Hi golden82

I love how you've recognised how the people in your life aren't right for you and it's time to walk away.

It's also a great thing to get to know the "true you"... probably our most important pursuit and achievement I would say. "Know Thyself" lol... I love the work of Brene Brown on shame, vulnerability, courage and guilt.

I love how she teaches us that we must be vulnerable to be courageous. Seems counter-intuitive but it all makes sense when you listen to how she explains it.

Also about walking through our shame. Knowing it and being OK with it all.

But the thing I love the most is her message of imperfection.

So many people want to be "perfect" and it's such a useless pursuit. Have things around them perfect etc etc. This can be so debilitating to people.

And yes lol my life is overflowing and this too shall pass (maybe)... I reckon I do have twice as many hours as others because I'm positive that I'm hyperactive! I thought I had ADD or ADHD but psychs are divided on this.
I have alot of energy, don't need much sleep thank goodness lol but have high executive functioning ie multi step organising and planning capability.

I have so many projects on the go. The weather dictates alot of them.

But my main aim is to rebuild my relationships with my children. These were heavily damaged in the past by others.

I'm keeping my focus.
Love and many Blessings!
EM

Hi CMF

Wow not doing things by halves there I bet!

I hope your health improves very soon!

It's a definite achievement home schooling and working from home.

I danced alot to jivey music during that time here - either do that or go crazy lol.
And ofcourse my garden got some royal treatment just to get out of the house.

Sending you lots of healing energy
Love EM

Hi everyone,

I am so glad that I found this thread! I have so many things to share with everyone here! For me, meditation, gratitude, and the law of attraction has set me free from all my mental illnesses. I am living a free life!

Well, throughout my childhood and adolescence, I have been a great sufferer of anxiety (social, generalised, phobias), depression, self-esteem issues, body image disturbance, eating disorder (binge eating disorder) - basically, I did not know myself. I even had problems understanding my school work and other aspects of life - I guess I was very slow in grasping things. So my schooling was terrible. Later my uni studies deteriorated.

But one day it really hit me, when I realized that my uni grades are low and I won't be able to apply for my psych honors program. On that day I made a lifestyle change!

I went completely whole foods plant-based, ventured myself to a fat loss transformation, and every day I started meditating!

Though, I did not get into my honors year but got into GDPA. After a lifestyle change, I started loving myself. I started having gratitude towards myself and others. I became compassionate towards myself and every single thing in the universe! All my mental illnesses reversed completely.

Now every day I look forward to it. I have gratitude for every day and everything in life. Well, I guess these things DO WORK!! It worked for me. Someone like me who used to get literarily heart attacks when I would socialize with someone who had body image disturbance with distorted self-esteem, had severe depression which made my adolescence miserable and my studies deteriorated, would easily get scared from the presence of others and would always ruminate about the future!

Now, I have freedom! I am excelling in my studies (in my GDPA) and I have gratitude towards the meditational practices that I have in place. Basically, eating clean and exercising are not enough. I mean rest of the day our mind can be ideal so it is best to explore oneself! Think about it how exciting would it be to explore the universe that already exists within you! I don't need to find it outside!

So that was my side of the story. Thanks for listening to me.

OMG what a wonderful story Jasjit! So beautiful to read and I bet even more wonderful to experience.

I agree about the whole lot ofcourse lol and especially love your mention of the unexplored space of our minds!

I mean we live with our mind and during stages of mental illness it can really feel like "our mind is working against us". The hateful thoughts and constant self doubting can do so much damage to ourselves and others around us. It can become habit.

So in thinking about it lol, if one way of thinking can become habit then an ENTIRELY NEW way of thinking can too! And this is really exciting.

I am so glad you posted Jasjit and please post MORE!

I really needed to read this. My psych friend came over last night because of a crisis with my youngest daughter. When she settled, amongst other things, psych friend reminded me of the quantum field, the whole "we are energy" and "constant vibration". I was feeling SO exhausted and discombobulated with YDs feelings. But hearing those words shone a shining light of endless possibility in this situation and ANY situation.

Having pure intention and bringing our vibrations UP can make a whole universe of difference to how we think, feel and step forward in our lives.

Thankyou Jasjit, you were my shining light today and I know so many others will benefit greatly from your post and your presence.

Best wishes for your Uni Course!

EM

Thank you Jasjit,

What beautiful story that will bring hope to many, including me.
I look back on life and realise I have manifested things. My bank balance had grown to a figure I had in my mind. The job I have well I told myself it's the job I'd get when applying for many. I'm thinking of the car I want, when it's time it will happen. I've painted my house the colour I want which seemed an impossible task. It's all possible but takes time. Put it out there, focus and let the Universe do its magic. I'm getting better at it, visioning, letting it go. I try and meditate to go to sleep. Haven't been doing it as much as some I'm just not connecting with - the voices etc. I'll find one, it will come to me.

Cmf x

Hi CMF wonderful birth mother of this wonderful thread lol.

How are you doing?

Hi everyone, I'd love to hear about what people are dreaming of manifesting in their lives.

These are some things I just thought of but haven't put them in my Dream Folder yet! Go figure lol.

* BEAUTIFUL Family times. As my children are growing up, some are getting gfs / bfs. They are talking about their varied ideas of careers, Uni Courses, PT work etc .... it's a pretty fertile time for them.
* A beautiful garden. Hard work lol. I'd like lots of different foods growing.
* An Organised house. Chipping away at this. I decided to give lots of things away to a family who's both parents have lost their jobs now. They sell stuff online. They can have my stuff to sell for themselves with love.
* Efficient workspace at work.
* Peace of mind - don't know how to draw that lol. Maybe the words will do there.

Probably lots of others.

What are you wanting in your life?

Love EM

Hi everyone!

It's me again. I came across this beautiful documentary, "Inner Worlds Outer Worlds".

Basically, this documentary is about how our inner world and the outer world are the SAME. There is no comparison, discrimination, difference!

Personally, it is a great documentary and I encourage everyone to watch this documentary. From what I learned from this documentary was the emotions that we seek outside already exists within ourselves. But also, when we understand that we are from the same energy, it does not matter what others think about us, who we like or dislike etc. From here we can enjoy every second of our life. I know it is hard to do this 24/7 but keeping it in mind daily will definetly help us have gratitude towards the whole universe and then, the MAGIC will begin in our lives. That MAGIC is law of attraction. If we love ourselves, meaning that we love the universe that exists within us and then we ask something, then the WHOLE universe will work towards to get that something special to you. Basically, these are energies which have the potential to flourish one's life.

Awesome Jasjit, I'll look it up! 😁
