Favorite Abraham Hicks Processes

These processes are summaries of those recommended in the book Ask and It Is Given by Esther and Jerry Hicks. They continue to be both fun and life changing for me, so I hope that you will have a similar experience.   Although most of these processes can be done in your head, your degree of focus while writing makes them much more powerful and effective in changing your point of attraction.

You Can Tell By The Questions How Much Work Has Been Done

Yesterday I spent a half hour on the phone with a man who called about the mailbox visualization he read at A Creative Visualization to Attract Dollars.  You’re walking out to your mailbox, and you’re excited because you know good things are in the works for you. You’re opening your mailbox, and you see an unexpected big check payable to you. You’re thrilled, you’re excited, and you know there’s more where this came from. Yes! He wanted to know should the check be in an envelope or not?  Continue reading

Staying skilled and open to change in today’s employment market

Florida Today writes in Career centers brace for wave of clients that the end of the space shuttle program could send thousands of aerospace workers into joblessness later this year.  But this isn’t just about one sector’s struggles.  “If we don’t have aerospace workers going to a restaurant, using a dry cleaner or going to the doctor, you see a ripple effect start to happen.”  Career centers offer one-on-one and group help with skills training, career counseling and other support services.  I’m all for getting trained in relevant technology to keep up with the times.  It’s scary when what you’ve always done for a living is no longer viable.  But that means it’s time to move into a new area, time to get trained for the transition.  I wonder what else I would do?

What I Did on Saturday

Yesterday I began the day by gathering some plants together for a galpal to pick up.  She recently bought a home with a big sunny yard and I had lots of cuttings and seedlings for her.  There were loquat seedlings, 2 big aloe plants, 2 pineapple plants, an areca palm, a live oak and a laurel oak, some jatropha almond, lemongrass, ginger and night blooming jasmine.  Yin Yang followed us as we wandered through the yard, but Izzy was nowhere to be seen.  He’s such a fraidy cat, but once he meets this pal in person, he will want to climb in her car and go home with her.  We found out that little oak seedlings have a long tap root and that aloe stays shallow.  The areca palm was remarkably easy to dig up, as were the two pineapple plants.I have a lot of ginger and as we cut a few new ones for her, we could smell the fragrance.  Mmmmm, nice.

Remember an active hurricane season doesn’t mean any will make landfall

The news is at it again. In Consensus Growing for Active Hurricane Season, Paul Yeager writes:  When private forecasting company WSI increased the number of predicted tropical storms and hurricanes in its updated Atlantic hurricane forecast, it added to the growing consensus among forecasters that the 2010 season will be an active one.  Skeptics of the accuracy of seasonal forecasts are numerous, often citing the inability of forecasters to predict the weather for next week as evidence that a seasonal forecast is impossible to make with any accuracy and is therefore useless.  In fact, three private outlets, along with the federal government’s Climate Prediction Center, all correctly predicted that the 2009 season would be less active than the 2008 season. The initial forecast for all of the entities was for a greater number of storms than actually occurred. ### end of article excerpt Continue reading

Neurotheology: How God Changes Your Brain

 One of the emerging academic disciplines that many seekers are honing in on these days is the whole field of “neurotheology.” Basically what is going on here is the application of scientific method to the study of God. We know, for example, what the brain looks like when it is focused on anger. Brain scans also reveal what the brain looks like on forgiveness. The question is then, what does the brain look like on God?  Andrew Newberg, M.D. and Mark Waldman have co-authored a book entitledHow God Changes Your Brain.” In the first chapter they write, “We are currently studying Sikhs, Sufis, yoga practitioners, and advanced meditators to map the neurochemical changes caused by spiritual and religious practices. Our research has led us to the following conclusions: Continue reading

How do you attract a new source of income?

A friend asked me, “Exactly what do you place on your “list” for a new source of income, job/career/whatever? How is it worded?  I am interested in working one. I now know ALL the stuff I DON’T want so I’m a whole lot clearer on what I do want. But not sure how to structure the list. Thanks.”

I responded, “I’m ready to attract a new source right now myself so I can free up some time. My script goes something like I have no idea where this new source of income will come from, nor how it will begin, nor how small of steps I may be making right now that I don’t even know I am making. I will keep my eyes out for clues as I continue doing what I do and do it in a happy and contented way since I know it’s all related.” Continue reading

Doctors Again Dabbling in Psychedelic Drugs

Interesting article and we’ve got some comments at the end.  In Doctors Again Dabbling in Psychedelic Drugs, Katie Drummond writes: (April 12) — Recent studies are offering compelling evidence that modern medicine should reconsider the use of hallucinogenic drugs in the treatment of several psychiatric disorders.  A handful of elite research institutions, including Johns Hopkins Medical Center, Harvard and New York University, are conducting tests on the potential for hallucinogens to offer beneficial, long-term changes to an individual’s brain chemistry.  Most of the current studies are concentrating on psilocybin, a key ingredient in the hallucinogen known as “magic mushrooms.” Continue reading

Personality Conflicts, Competition, It’s Just Souls Searching

I’ve been in business and on the planet long enough to know not to burn bridges.  The same people you are snarky to and unfair with in your youth will come back in positions to help you decades down the road, and they’ll end up halfway around the world to do it, if that’s what it takes.   So you save yourself a lot of personality conflict karma by giving that stuff up early on.  When I use the word karma, I mean karma as in cause and effect.  You do this, it sets that in motion.  It’s like a fanbelt, a boomerang, it’s a cycle going around and around, you know it’s coming back again.  You don’t know in what form it will return, but if you’re smart, you stay tuned for clues so you can nip it in the bud.

Saturday is Saturn’s Day

Saturday is Saturn’s day – a day to direct our attention toward routine chores and personal responsibilities, a good day for furthering our ambitions through perseverance, patience, responsible action, and a sense of purpose.  Ask yourself some questions: How are you doing? Are you consciously heading in the direction you want to be going? Saturday is a good day for rest and relaxation, forming goals, and for giving and receiving recognition.  It’s a day to formulate new beginnings, new projects and ideas.  What’s next for you?
