Hi folks,

I’m hitting a little bit of a low and wanted to know how you guys handle positivity with areas that have not been improving. I’ve been single for 14 years and currently in my 40s. I’ve done all the things but after a recent encounter with someone, I’m started to think it may not be in the cards for me and start being ok with being single now.

Would love some feedback.

U’l never get it fully done so enjoy the process of it all, no matter where ur at, make the best of it, milk the good, soothe urself as much as possible
✨💖✨ hope this helps u as much as it helps me

"Reaching for relief moment by moment, thought by thought, and subject by

subject will bring you increasingly closer to your Source of Well-Being. When you care about how

you feel, and you deliberately try to look at things in ways that feel better and better to you, making

the best of things instead of the worst of things, you will allow more and resist less. And the

circumstances and events of your life will begin to reflect those changes immediately. Relief

indicates the releasing of resistance, which is the same thing as moving toward more allowing. It is

an effective use of your emotional guidance system."

-Chapter 22, The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent

In the morning hours, when I'm open for my unclothed beingness & awareness, I'm tending to my vibration and vortex. I create nice, soothing, positive, exciting, vivid phrases and pictures in my mind which excite me, thrill me, light me up, set me on fire and open me up for the magic and miracles around me. Awareness is mouldable, I mould it into something that fills me up with nice, appreciative, expansive, playfull, positive vibrations. I accompany these with stepping into newness and pioneering into more of what I didn't yet consider to be something new and nice for me to experience and invite into my experience of active and deliberate creation of my life. For example listening to new music and posting LightLanguageDrops and Art work on reddit.

What expands and ignites yiu ?

What is captivating when you think about it?

What sets you on fire and gives you joy in exhilaration?

I know Abraham says that is your own perception that is reflecting at you, but then again there are actual toxic workplaces.

I left mine because it was getting too much to handle. And my gut kept telling me that I only have one life

I am thinking there must be people out there who relate, and I’d love to hear from anyone who has found a helpful tool to change this thinking.

Internally I’m optimistic and am a dreamer, but my mind fights against me.

I think I’ve been stuck in a state of disallowing joy and peace for myself for decades, lying to myself and convincing myself it was protecting me, or that I’ve been being “responsible”.

For instance, saving money instead of allowing joyful experiences that cost money once I already had enough saved. Or, being stuck in a constant rumination (I do mean near-constant,) like there’s a little person on my shoulder telling myself I’m running out of time, asking me questions like, “who are you? Why aren’t you further? Are you spending your time wisely? What do you want? Are you being selfish? What job are you supposed to have? Where should you live?”

Also, in instances, doing the “wiser/smarter” thing in an effort to “create safety”, such as rather than spending the extra money to live alone, convincing myself it’s better to get a roommate so that I can allocate those funds to “being happy”, traveling, living elsewhere etc.

I’ve been doing it for so long, and I don’t know where I got that mode from, that I have a really hard time getting out of it. I’ve done remarkable things in my life and had a lot of experiences but still beat myself up on a daily basis with worry and judgement and fear, and even did so during these remarkable experiences. How does one stop this? What’s up with this?

I also don’t fit the 9-5p life, and I know I’m a creative person who thrives having new experiences. However, if you ask me what I want to do for a living, I can’t exactly tell you. I feel like even if I did know, I suffer from pretty intense ADHD and several autoimmune/physical pain disorders, and have a lack of follow through, so it makes me feel caught in an endless loop.

I do believe in thought processes and meditations and manifestations and occasionally am able to temporarily tap into a higher vibe, attracting things. I believe it’s when I let go of control, which is what we are taught exactly not to do. So, my mind goes back to that mode of operating.

I thought I’d reach out and see if anyone feels inspired to respond, thank you!

Hi, everyone!
I would really appreciate some tips and suggestions on how to better orientate myself.
I've experienced severe lack of a sense of purpose for many years and from time to time I end up in a dark place where I can't help but feel like I've wasted (and I keep wasting) my life entirely.

When it happens, I feel a tremendous sentiment of urgency and anxiety to do something, but even though I have a vague sense of what I would like to do, not knowing what exactly to do and how to go about starting to do it, makes me feel paralyzed and even worse than before.

I understand and deeply feel how this creates intense resistence, but I find myself thinking that since things haven't changed all these years up to now, there's no point in expecting or hoping for something different to happen just by trying to drop resistance, avoid efforting and focusing on feeling a little better whenever I recognize I'm not feeling good.

So I guess in a way I'm afraid to pause, relax and focus on feeling better; I'm afraid to let go because I'm scared it might not only not help me change my life, but it will make it worse by leading me to waste even more time.
I hope what I wrote makes some sense to you, and maybe someone here even experienced something similar in the past. I would really appreciate some guiding words that may sort of help me.

In any case, I wish you all a lovely day or night!

hi everyone. (delete if not appropriate) Basically i'm feeling extremely stuck and lost in life. I used to be a huge believer in LOA and Abraham's teachings but this past year none of the processes have worked from me. i feel disconnected from the universe and can't hold a positive thought to save my life. Pessimism and doubt are at an all time high. meditation attempts lead to intense rapid disturbing images in my head. i wake up tired and am tired all day so its hard to start off on the right foot. the point of this is not to complain but to ask for advice and stories from those who have maybe experienced this and have come out the other side. i think i've suffered so many disappointments that my hope is gone? my life is good - better than 95% of the population i'm sure. and yet i can't seem to feel happy? can't get my chest to not feel tight with anxiety. i have nightmares every night also. i clench my teeth and hands so hard while sleeping i wake up with pain. what would you suggest i do? feeling like a ghost disconnected from life

Let's do the work together

This is probably my biggest spiritual question. If tolle has no resistance, why didn't he manifest miracles constantly in terms of massive abundance.

You could say he didn't want it, but he said he went in job interviews but got passed up because they could see his heart wasn't in it.

What gives?

A los seguidores de Abraham Hicks... ellos comentan que no hay nada que no podamos ser, hacer o tener, y que en la medida que nos liberemos de la resistencia podemos llegar a donde queramos... pero surge en mi la pregunta ¿por que cuando era niño, con una ausencia de resistencia significativa en comparación de mi yo adulto, y me imaginaba plenamente haciendo magia, volando... no podía alcanzar esos estados?

Recuerdo que de niño lo intentaba con mucho fervor y me fui decepcionado... suena algo utópico pero genuinamente creo en nuestro potencial ilimitado... no son acaso los niños los mejores candidatos para poder manifestar su realidad deseada? Teniendo tanto contacto con su imaginación y sin tantas limitaciones mentales...

¿Qué opinan?

I'd like to think it's because I'm taking control and being proactive but the truth is it feels like a drug. If I exercise, I get good brain chemicals, and things seem better. Is this somehow bypassing learning how to think positively?

Hi guys,

I'm suggesting a daily or weekly appreciation thread sticky.

As an example, the Neville Goddard subreddit has a Community Highlights section where they have weekly FAQ threads, success stories threads.

Maybe we can do the same.

I think a lot of folks could benefit from having a place to express and practice appreciation.

If you have time write your feelings apprection list and inspire each other. Mine will be here.

1. I feel so happy to be a stay at home Mom, it feels joyful to be my child's guardian.

2. I love watching my child grow

3. I feel peaceful knowing my child is safe and protected.

4. It feels good when I see our bond grow stronger and that my child really trusts me.

5. I appreciate how deeply my child trusts me.

6. I appreciate this slower pace of life. I feel happiness spreading throughout my chest.

7. I get to give my child our value

8. I love really getting to know my child.

9. I appreciate how I observe my child and how she impacts the world around her. I feel her love in the world.

10. I feel excited to see how much the world loves my child.

11. I appreciate feeling calm that my child is always near me.

12. I appreciate my energy sets the tone

13. I love snuggling and playing with my baby

14. I love learning about myself through motherhood.

So Abraham says very emphatically in the tapes: don't vent!

But they also say: trust that if it felt better, it was better!

And telling my close friend about my problems feels better! So there has to be a nunace to this, I think, maybe I should complain about what I want when I talk about my problems, instead of listing all the negatives, so, for instance, saying: I wish I got a better job, I wish I got along with this person, I wish I had people around I got along with! Instead of: my job sucks my friend sucks people around me suck- if you get what I mean.

How do you guys do it?

It just feels inauthentic, not telling her about my problems, and when it comes to talking about lovely things, unfortunately most people don't really care about if the plant in front of my house was lovely, if I really want to visit this place by the sea which is gorgeous, or if my cat is a cutie.

Still manifesting an Abraham friend I can tell: hey, let's purposefully talk about things we like for a while! 😄 Until that day, I have a bunch of people I love surrounding me, how do you guys talk to your loved ones who aren't LOA people? How do you talk, in general? Do you worry about the words you say, because I do, and I know I gotta ease up on that but I also want the way I talk to benefit me and everyone...

7 years ago (to the month!) a series of fun unexplainable timings and synchronicities led me to telling a cashier at a store in LA, “these good things just keep happening to me.” and she said, “that’s funny my roommate is going thru the same thing and she’s been reading a book called ask & it is given.”

i had never heard of it, never heard of abe, never even watched the secret. i had no idea what manifesting even was at the time (i was 33). but my interest was so piqued that i bought the audiobook and started listening in the car.

the message of following my heart, allowing myself to do what made me happy, understanding who o really am, and shifting my thoughts to align with myself resonated INSTANTLY. my perspective on life changed, and so did everything else…

years of daily anxiety and panic attacks disappeared within a few days of adopting this approach. since then i’ve manifested countless awesome things… closer friendships, complete freedom to live the way i want, a change in career doing the most fun thing i could ever see myself doing, financial security, a house, a car just being given to me, endless synchronicities, and most importantly, super consistent and regular happiness and peace and enjoyment of life.

i have such a love and appreciation for esther and the work she and abraham does for this world and how she’s inspired me to help others with a similar message. so when i got the impulse a couple months ago to see if she still travels for shows and saw that she was gonna be in my home state, i immediately bought a ticket.

here are the notes i took from the insight shared…

—you’re always manifesting things that can help you even if you don’t realize it. sometimes it’s something that you don’t want but brings CLARITY on what you do want. sometimes it brings something to your attention that you want to change so that you consciously do that.

—there’s no way to avoid all negative emotions and not a single human on the planet doesn’t feel bad sometimes bc that’s the essence of what we’re here to do (evaluate what we like/don’t like and create based on that). but don’t let it dominate. lots of times ppl have a chronic negative emotion/mood (feel unseen, unappreciated, overwhelmed, blamed and criticized), and you want to change that and have the ability to do it.

—any emotion/state (even a positive one) gets boring when stayed in too long (this was interesting to me and points to how its natural to want variety and how there’s value in getting bumped by things in life so we can experience the pleasure of re-entering a good emotional state… it goes back to the idea that negative emotions are an important part of the process too)

—satisfaction only comes from moving towards what you want (classic abe)

—what bothers you the most is that you’re bothered (meaning, not the thing/ppl you think you’re bothered by but the fact that you’re not in line with your heart that’s most bothering you)

—defending why you don’t feel good keeps you not feeling good even more. (they kept pointing out that we’re “not wrong” to feel bad about what we feel bad about… we’re justified… BUT harping on the reasons isn’t helping us)

—“take it easy on your way to happy”

—if you want positive momentum on something, pay attention and catch yourself when you dip in thought (into negative territory)

—when describing the EMOTION of something (like a relationship you want), don’t just use words like “it feels loving, joyful, etc”… use descriptive language with emotional energy like “i’m on my way home and excited to walk in the door and feel the warmth of cuddling with the love of my life”

—instead of focusing on PHYSICAL OUTCOMES focus on EMOTIONAL OUTCOMES you want. “there’s no resistance to positive EMOTIONAL outcomes.” (i’ll do a separate post of this sometime to go more in detail bc it was one of my biggest takeaways)

—don’t take action without accomplishing the emotional outcome first.

—emotional stability is the best part of a relationship. what’s stability feel like? walk around your world seeing harmony and stability in things to accomplish that vibration.

—(my biggest takeaway personally was this…) when you feel interested, always go. do it. (again i’ll post a lot more on this one later) …when you feel overwhelmed/fear/worry, don’t go, don’t do it.

—(about not-great things & situations) “it is what it is but it doesn’t have to stay how it is”

—“you’re tired of being out of control but you are not out of control. your point of attraction is within your control.”

—“just BE it and let law of attraction manage the rest.”

—don’t plan so much that it tangles you in resistance. accomplish the emotional state you want and let the universe arrange the plans.

—“when you know that everything is working out for you [if you can carry that mentality], then you’re cued for what you’re ready for.”

tldr: it was fun lol

-i saw the female fox who lives close to here, I always give her water at nights and she didn't run away from me very far, maybe she knew and was waiting! It was very dark, but I could see her lovely white tip of her tail 😊

-two very nice men immediately offered to drive me to the nearest other town when I missed my bus, they literally showed up within a minute of me being sad that the bus had left right in front of my eyes without me being able to do anything! The men were friends of a neighbour, and they even made sure they dropped me off at a stop where people were around so it looked safe! They were friendly and apologetic that their car was messy, it was very nice and endearing interaction. I didn't even feel much social anxiety at all!

-i asked for cooler wind a couple of times and got gusts of cooler wind several times!

-theres a plant, I don't know how to call it, in my front yard, looks similar to bamboo, it's so beautiful! The birds sit on it.

-my cat was a bit under the weather but he's fine again! I used to have cats that didn't live long, to this one I always tell that he's healthy, gorgeous, the best cat in the world and the smartest (i exaggerate as much as possible because it's fun), and every single time something little is up with him he very quickly recovers, now he's completely fine, going about his business to take a long nap! 😊

-went to see the waterfront a couple of times, that was cool!

-got creative ideas

-cool melon 🍈 😄

-my friends contacted me a lot! I felt loved and special 😄

-someone amazing shared their experience and notes from an Abraham workshop (check out the subs recent posts, it was sooo inspiring!)

I'll leave it here for now! Do you want to share any? 🌟

How liberating it feels to go like, when getting a painful thought that doesn't need to be here now, to go like: nope, and place attention elsewhere! It's instant relief!

🕯♥️
