ALIGNING WITH YOUR GOALS (Intro)

I have decided to go back to a subject I think is still important to explore more deeply. With all the talk about the Law of Attraction being “The Secret” to ultimate happiness, I have found that people are still confused, finding that there is a huge ‘gap’ in how it all really works. Although the Law of Attraction is one of several viable universal laws, meaning it is in action whether you recognize it or not, there are still two that come into play when considering manifesting your desired goals.

The second crucial law is Deliberate Creation, meaning you choose to focus in a particular way, which works in conjunction with the Law of Attraction, as to achieve a purposeful result.

However, it is the third that is most significant of all. The Law of Allowing is the actualization of the desire into our physical reality. First you know what you want, then you bring it into focus with intent, finally, you must allow it in by being in a receptive state when it comes.

"Oh, that should be easy," you say. "After all, why would I not be ready to receive the thing I truly desire?" It is not that you don’t want to receive it; it’s that you are unaware of how receiving it actually works. You may not know that you not in "alignment" to receive it. So you think this "stuff" doesn't work.

What the Law of Allowing means is that you must bring yourself into vibrational alignment with that which you desire. Being ready means you must resonate with it before it shows up. Just wanting it is not enough. Just seeing it is not enough. Hmmmmm..now it may sound a bit more complicated than it actually is. Once you understand how to align your vibration, it is all really quite simple!

Most often when we want something in our lives; whether it is a job, a relationship, financial status or health, we let ourselves become scattered in our thinking and in our emotions. "I want this or that, but I will never, or I don't have, or I can see affording it, or there is no one yet." We feel sad or lonely or resentful or anxious or doubtful or impatient. Subsequently, because of these thought/emotional roller coasters, we find that we are getting more of what we don’t want rather than what we do want.

Again, understanding how to achieve what it is you are deliberately creating, via the Law of Attraction, is the difference between seeing it realized or not. The key element here is to know your job in the process. You have to learn “how” to be an "allower". And your emotions are the key to lead the way, if you learn how to follow their cues.

Let’s look at this from a straightforward view.

• You are vibration.
• Your thoughts are vibration.
• You receive, discern and transmit vibrational signals.
• Your physical five senses (sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste) are used to decipher our ongoing standpoint at every moment in our life experience
• Your emotions are a sixth sense that is giving you feedback to your point of attraction
• The Law of Attraction is based on 'like vibrations attracting like vibrations'
• Your thoughts attract other thoughts that ultimately manifests into physical representations of the thoughts (both wanted and unwanted)
• Your emotions respond to your thoughts offering a signal as to how close or far you are to your desired thing, state of being, goal, relationship, etc.
• Vibrationally, there are only two directions you can head: one is closer to what you want and the other is further from what you want
• You can segment your thoughts or focus to a desired outcome
• Your emotions are a barometer or compass to point you in the direction to achieve alignment with whatever your desired “goal” is.
  

Tip: You know you are heading in the direction of your goal when you “feel” some kind of relief (or better feeling) based upon the thoughts you are thinking or your focus in any given moment.

For example, let’s look at sight as one of the senses of focus. If you are looking at photographs of an ex-lover who deeply hurt you and you find that you now feel sad or angry, (vibrationally) you are, at that moment, heading away from the kind of relationship you truly desire. Your sad or angry emotions are like a warning. “You are heading in the wrong direction!” Now if you ignore the warning, watch out! The Law of Attraction is still at play and will attract more thoughts that match those feelings and you most likely will snowball in an undesired direction. If you ignore that emotion too long, you will not like what you get in the next relationship, even if you desired something better. By remaining aligned with the old relationship, you may get a different face at a different place, but you get the same thing (a bad relationship).

Now if you look at photographs of happy couples, and you feel hopeful that there is someone out there for you, (vibrationally) you are well on your way to finding that desired partner. If you just kept hanging onto hopeful thoughts, maybe even got excited at the possibilities of your desired new relationship, you will eventually be attracted to someone who matches that new vibration (which is what you truly desire).

Another tip: The more passion or excitement you feel about the receiving of a desire, the quicker it will show up.

It is not just the thought; it is actually the kind of emotion that the thought conjures up in you that matters most. The Law of Attraction does the rest. Your job is to keep the best feeling thought going-- deliberately and mindfully. It is not any particular action that determines your end result, but rather it is ultimately your alignment with the end result that calls you to take action. It is a natural progression when you allow yourself to take the path of least resistance.

Final tip: The practice of meditation brings you in a state of least resistance. Meaning, in a meditative state you are not attaching yourself to any particular thoughts or feelings. Therefore, you are in perfect state of Allowing.

Closing Note: I will explore more about how to use your emotions to guide you to achieve your goals in my upcoming MagsJOY Blogs. All comments are welcome. Even those like one I got a few weeks ago that said "what you are doing is fake, either you are fooling yourself or deliberately fooling others...shame." What I realize is that I cannot please every reader. That is the great diversity of this life experience. Especially when it comes to Blogging on the Internet.

My perspective, as I consider life from a window of light, is not to impart my beliefs onto anyone, but rather to evoke in the reader contemplative thought on finding their own personal truth. That is what every spiritual teacher has offered me. And I am thankful for it.

Keeping it light,

Stress and Brain Tumors

“If I am the creator of my own reality, then why do I have a brain tumor?”

As someone who believes that we do create our own experience, this question might be asked of me by my mother and my sister, both of whom have found themselves with brain tumors. At the age of fifty, my mother’s life was taken after about ten years of debilitating seizures from an inoperable benign brain tumor. It was as devastating blow to our entire family, but it was especially traumatic for my younger, triplet sisters, who were only nineteen at that time. Even more shocking was that just a few years later one of the triplets also developed an inoperable brain tumor, however, hers was malignant. No explanation, no cause, no clue from doctors as to why a healthy 23 year old girl would have a brain tumor. It’s been over fifteen years since of testing, radiation, chemotherapy, a variety of drugs and the constant interruption in the quality of her life with seizures.

Science has not yet figured out what causes Brain Tumors or the origin of many other diseases for that matter. Nevertheless, people find themselves with illnesses like brain tumors, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis and even the common Canker Sore. Theoretically, however, most doctors do concluded that STRESS is a key factor to a long list of medical ailments, especially in woman.

From a medical perspective, Wikipedia encyclopedia defines stress as the disruption of homeostasis through physical or psychological stimuli. In other words, outside world forces impinge on each and every one of us. Stress is a normal part of life that can help us learn and grow. Conversely, stress can cause us significant problems when we don’t take appropriate action. When outside stimuli causes us to feel stress, we release powerful neurochemicals and hormones that prepare us to take action (the fight or flight response). If ignored, prolonged, uninterrupted, unexpected and unmanaged, stress can cause damaging health issues.

Metaphysically speaking, the law of attraction, along with other universal laws, demonstrates ways in which cause and effect are related, as well as guidelines for behaviors that will enhance our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual growth. Its core premise is that our thoughts, feelings, words, and actions produce a certain energy or vibration that attracts like energies or vibrations. In other words, with all of that, we create our own reality.

Considering the lead question, one might conclude that impacting stresses my mother experienced early in life could have resulted in certain thoughts and feelings, like fear or low self-esteem, which held a certain vibration that over time attracted a physical result in a brain tumor. And then one might further conclude that if my sister’s focus was so intently on the fear of getting a brain tumor or, even worse, dieing from one, could have been the ultimate reason she has one. Of course, fear based thoughts and feelings are not conscious ones, but are hidden in the shadows of our subconscious mind. If asked, I am sure both would agree that they would have never deliberately asked for this condition. However, the significant conclusion here is not that they didn’t choose a brain tumor but that they did not deliberately choose health. The illness was, therefore, by default.

Perhaps if more people knew this it would inspire them to pay attention to their thoughts and feelings, especially when under stress. Knowing how important thinking and feeling good meant, they would take appropriate action to relieve stress, like exercising regularly, eating more healthfully, doing meditation or other relaxation techniques, taking structured time outs, and learning new coping strategies. In the end, creating a fulfilling and healthy lifestyle depends totally on the willingness of a person to make good choices with clear intent, to make any changes as needed, including managing stress, and most importantly, to trust in the process.

The chain of pain can be broken. My mother’s death, and even my sister’s current condition, is not in vain. It is the catalyst for my spiritual awakening and my journey into understanding life and death. It has fired a passion in me to learn and grow and to teach and help others to be empowered. My mom may be gone, but I have hope for my sister.

In my workshops, the main question I ask is, “What’s your attractor factor–stress or success?”
