New

There are a few new things out or coming out that I thought you might enjoy.

The first is the latest televised nature series called Great Migrations which started this past Sunday on the National Geographic Channel. These are just stunning productions and are great to watch and feel good, you can see some preview clips here.

The second is the latest Abraham Book titled, Getting In the Vortex - A Guided Meditation and User Guide. What sounds great about this is the book includes a CD with 4 guided meditations, musically scored no less. Many people have trouble quieting their minds and meditating and I know from guided meditations that I have done with people that this will be very helpful. The book is out next Tuesday in your local bookstore or on Amazon.

The third is a documentary called the Inside Job, narrated by Matt Damon which takes a look back over the recent financial meltdown. No one comes out of this looking good, democrat, republican, wall street or academia. I feel it's important to understand what happened here as it will happen again and it is possible to step back and see what is going on and avoid a lot of suffering. I don't believe there has ever been a recession or depression that wasn't caused by anything other than war or financial greed/shenanigans and the time period between those events is getting shorter. You can see the trailer and more here.

Quote

If you intend to be of assistance, your eye is not upon the trouble but upon the assistance, and that is quite different. When you are looking for a solution, you are feeling positive emotion— but when you are looking at a problem, you are feeling negative emotion.

You're picky about the car you drive. You're picky about what you wear. You're picky about what you put in your mouth. We want you to be pickier about what you think.

--- Abraham

Quote

Complaining about anything, holds you in the place of refusing to receive the things you've been asking for. Justifying about anything holds you in the place of refusing to let in the very things that you've been asking for. Blaming someone, holds you in the place of refusing to let in the things that you've been asking for. Feeling guilty, feeling angry, it doesn't matter what you call it, it is a refusal, not a conscious one. You're asking; you can't help but ask. The Universe is yielding; it must yield. It's a big question, folks: why aren't you letting it in?

--- Abraham

Gratitude or Appreciation

When you feel gratitude, often you are looking at a difficulty that you have overcome, but there is still some of that "struggle" vibration present. The state of appreciation is seeing whatever you are looking at through the eyes of Source. . . You could walk down a crowded street with all kinds of things that a lot of other people would find reason to criticize or worry about, and you would not have access to them because your vibration of appreciation is picking out for you things of a different vibrational nature.

--- Abraham

Where did that come from?

Part of the new Abraham book is devoted to creating harmony in the household, specifically parents and the children and chores around the house. This brought back memories for me and a recognition of what was going on in our childhood home.

Like a lot of households there was a lot of resistance to chores, even with a weekly pocket money allowance there was resistance. Where could that have come from?

Well I thought back to  things that where there was no resistance, where there was joy and fun cleaning up etc. One thing was obvious, we all enjoyed helping my mother when she was baking and cooking, whether it was mixing things, cleaning up, carrying or fetching it was all fun. Baking and cooking was fun for my mother too, she really loved to do it, she was smiling, good body language etc.

As children we observe things very closely we can tell when someone is happy or sad, annoyed or frustrated and we make those connections very quickly. As happy as my mother was cooking and baking, she was unhappy, doing dishes, polishing shoes and cleaning up around the house.

Observing this and making the connections that there was something unhappy about this task, when it came to being asked to do these chores, I was resistant. At that age, not having done the task before, why would there, be resistance? I had made the connection that this wasn't going to be fun, that had been my experience and observations. I say that not to blame my mother, I was just making connections. Later those chores were associated with punishment which created more resistance.

I know today that this is not uncommon in a lot of households and it does cause a lot of problems for all concerned. What is the answer? I would suggest for parents to be aware of how they are feeling at all times, you are being watched, very closely! As Abraham suggests before you do anything, get in the vortex, alignment or feel good before you do anything. If the task feels too big then break it down into smaller pieces or do a little at a time so you can maintain your feeling of happiness.

Things will change quickly and you will notice that those around you will want to help out. We all wanted to help with baking and cooking, not so much cleaning dishes. It is possible to feel good doing anything, if you are willing to feel good and not stuck in resistance. It is natural for us to want to do things that feel good, so you can have great influence on those around you, if you choose that path.

Interestingly we also have the power to influence those around us in the opposite direction too. We then have a choice of how we wish to influence. What is your choice?   

The Vortex

I have read Abraham's new book the Vortex, I would agree it is their best yet! There are many lessons, a parent, spouse, employer or employee can learn from this book. There is a very generous excerpt of the book here which also has prizes on offer. Or you can down load the excerpt Download Hicks.esther.jerry_print_vortex_ch1_wbuylinks, the book is priced just over $10 on Amazon.

Abraham Book

The new Abraham book is now out in bookstores and online, it is called the Vortex -Where the law of attraction assembles all cooperative relationships.

I heard Abraham say at a seminar that this is their best book so far, after I get a hold of a copy I will let you know.

Quote

"You cannot worry about someone and love them at the same time. Most people mistake the emotion of worry for the emotion of love. They think that worrying about somebody means that you love them".

Here are 3 quotes from Abraham

You cannot notice what-is and complain about it, and be a vibrational match to the solution. When you were living the problem, you were asking for the solution, and Source said yes immediately. So, there's never a reason for you to be wallowing around in a problem for more than about a second? You can get so good at this that before you're even aware that the problem has gotten started, you've already got the solution under way.

Make a decision and then make the decision right. Line up your Energy with it. In most cases it doesn't really matter what you decide. Just decide. There are endless options that would serve you enormously well, and all or any one of them is better than no decision.

When your heart is singing, you are allowing Well-being. When you are appreciating, you are allowing Well-being. When you are yelling at somebody, you're not. When you're feeling insecure, you're not. When you're frustrated, you're not.

Time To Tell a New Story

This is an excerpt from the Abraham book Money and the Law Of Attraction by Jerry and Esther Hicks. I highly recommend buying this book, $10.17 on Amazon and read   it at least twice. One of the teachings is telling a new story, the excerpt below outlines the familiar components of the old story, that is familiar to everyone and recommendations that should be in your new story.

"My old story is about....
Things that have gone wrong.
Things that aren't the way I want them to be or think they should be.
Others who have let me down.
Others who have not been truthful with me.
Not enough money.
Not enough time.
How things usually are.
How things have been all my life.
How things have been lately.
Injustices that I see in the world.
Others who just don't understand.
Others who don't make an effort.
Others who are capable  but don't apply themselves.
Dissatisfaction with my appearance.
Worry about my body's health.
People who take advantage of others.
People who want to control me.

My new story is about:

The positive aspects of my current subject of attention.
The way I really want thigns to be.
How well things are going.
How the Law of Attraction is the true manager of all things.
Abundance that flows abundantly.
How time is perceptual and endless.
The best things I see.
My favorite memories.
The obvious expansion of my life.
The amazing or interesting or wonderful aspects of my world.
The incredible variety that surrounds me.
The willingness and effectiveness of so many.
The power of my own thoughts.
The positive aspects of my own body.
The stable basis of my physical body.
How we create our own reality.
My absolute freedom and my joyous awareness of it.

Each and every component that makes up your life experience is drawn to yu by the powerful Law of Attraction's response to the thoughts you think and the story you tell about your life. Your money and financial assets; your body's state of wellness, clarity, flexibility, size, and shape; your work environment, how you are treated, work satisfaction, and rewards - indeed the very happiness of your life experience in general-is all happening because of the story you tell. If you will let your dominant intention be to revise and improve the content of the story you tell everyday of your life, it is our absolute promise to you that your life will become that ever-improving story. For by the powerful Law of Attraction, it must be!"

Abraham

Quote

"When you feel mistreated-fairness cannot find you. Your perception of your mistreatment, and the subsequent vibration that you offer because of your perception, prevents anything that you would consider to be fair from coming to you."

Abraham - from the new book Money and the Law of Attraction, due in bookstores everywhere on August 12th 2008.

Abraham Quote

This is a quote from the new Abraham book out on August 12th 2008, Money and the Law Of Attraction. The principle applies not just to the topic of money, it applies to anything you want in your life.

"If you believe that you must work hard in order to deserve the money that comes to you, then money cannot come to you unless you do work hard. Financial success, or any other kind of success, does not require hard work. It does require alignment of thought. You simply cannot offer negative thought about things that you desire and then make up for it with action or hard work. When you learn to direct your own thoughts, you will discover the true leverage of Energy alignment".

Quote

"I must be aware of bad things, and guarded about bad things, and I must watch out for bad things by trying to guide myself toward good things." You can't do both at the same time. You can't watch out for bad things, and allow good things at the same time. It is vibrationally not possible. --- Abraham

Abraham Book Excerpt

This is from the The Book, the Astonishing Power of Emotions - Let your feelings be your guide:

When we (Abraham) speak of vibrational alignment, we are referring to aligning the vibrations within your being only. It has nothing to do with anything that anyone else is doing. This sometimes raises a question in those who hear us say that, because it seems to many people that the only problems they have are due to their interaction with other people: "SO doesn't something need to be done about those individuals?"

It is true, you are interacting with others, and often that interaction is the source of your discomfort or problem, but asking them to be different is not the answer. Most of them are not willing to change for you anyway, and even when they are willing, they cannot consistently be what you need them to be in order for you to feel good. The answer to you feeling good is only in the alignment of the energy within you.
