Words don't teach, Experiences do!!!

Abraham Hicks says, "Words don't teach, experiences do, so pay attention to all the times that the Law of Attraction shows itself to you."  So here it is, some of the ways the Law of Attraction has proven itself for me in the past few weeks. 

For one, my husband custom ordered a car from the universe.  He had his eye on a certain model and had focus upon this wanting for about 9 months.  He was very happy with his current car, but had his on on this better version of it.  One day he said to me, "I just know that that exact car is out there and for the amount I want to pay (which was well under Blue Book Price)." Sure enough about a week later he drove by a lot and there it was.  The previous owner had only had it for a short time and was ready to trade up.  The entire purchase process went as it should have and he of course has his dream car in the garage!  

Just last weekend I was attending a Reiki Workshop near Santa Cruz and after getting a late start on my drive, I decided to turn my attention to what I wanted. I wanted to arrive with time to settle in and I wanted to get the "perfect seat".  I let go of the details of this and trusted the universe to  provide this for me. I thoroughly trusted that it would work out perfectly. It seemed as if traffic parted for me, I made record time without accelerated speed.  I arrived with 7 mins to spare and found an available seat next to a women who had been with me on y Reiki Journey.  After I had settled in between her and a taken seat with just a purse on it, the workshop began and my wonderful Reiki Teacher sat next to me.  Not only was she joining us as a student which I was unaware she be doing, but she was sitting next to me!!  I truly had gotten the perfect seat.  

I continued to trust in this as I began my morning commute on Monday to take my kids to school in a town 15 miles away.  Once in the car, I covered up the clock and focused on how great it would feel when we arrived on time. I am already doing my best to arrive on time, no point in stressing about what the clock says, when eternal time is the only controller. All the stress does is help me to have negative thoughts which in-turn attract more negative thoughts and experiences.  All week, regardless of when we leave our home (5 minutes late on Tuesday), we arrived on time or a few minute early, depending on what we focused on.  Not only are my ride less stressful due to the clock, but the undying trust I have in arriving on time is again causing traffic to part for me. I hit every green light and get there almost exactly at the time we focused on. 

This lovely proof of the law of attraction works in the other way as well. Tuesday, after having having a negative thought and grasping it too tightly (I am a great focuser, hehe) and for too long (Abraham says catching it in under 17 seconds is the key) it sent me down a road of frustration and bad luck for the next couple of hours.  Every slow car in front of me, one woman going straight actually sat through an entire green light, yeilding to the oncoming traffic turning left (wtf?), kids were acting out, I knocked over my water, dropped my phone, missed an important phone call, forgot an appointment, do you see the theme?! That silly little negative thought, held and focused upon brought me more of just that, NEGATIVITY!  I was very aware of what was happening, but could not stop the momentum, it was moving so fast. Abraham says if you are that focused, you need to go general and if you can't get general because of too much focus, just quiet your mind. Thank you Reiki, I know how to do that. So I did, I took about 15 minutes to meditate in the reiki space and that helped a ton, for that 15 minutes all thoughts stopped!  Then I was able to have a happy thought, "yes, I am calm and peaceful, life it good!"  That was enough, I looked at my phone and there was a message from my amazing business partner and friend, after deciding that we each wanted positive we had a fantastic chat and both left the conversation uplifted and full of joy and gratitude. The rest of the evening went very smoothly!  The Law of Attraction is so amazing!

OMG, one of the most amazing things I have created in my reality is my ability to sleep. After almost 2 years of getting approx 4 hours of sleep a night, I am getting 6 to 7 consistently.  What caused this, simply the act of saying that I sleep really well and wake when I am rested.  Every day since the insomnia started I had complained of not sleeping.  I would complain to anyone I could, everyone knew that I woke up between 2a and 4a everyday, I wanted sympathy. What I got was less sleep. Well, a few weeks ago I changed my attitude on it.  I now say to anyone who asks how my sleeping is doing (and everyone asks cause I talked about it so much) that I am sleeping great. That I get the perfect amount of sleep every night and wake when I am rested. Then at night instead of worrying about what time I will probably wake up between 2a-4a (like in the past), I say "I will wake up when I am rested, but before my alarm so that I can have enough time to meditate and get my day started with the best possible momentum and good feelings.  This mental shift has lead to  me consistently waking up within half hour to an hour and a half before my alarm. The time has conveniently corresponded to how much prep work I was needing for that day.  Another part of it was all the time I was spending awake, alone in the middle of the night was quite peaceful and I honestly did not want to let go of it. Now I am making the best of the time and it feels so much more valuable. Not to mention I need it less, because I am not blaming my family and surroundings for my negative feelings.

I have found the key to being in the vortex most of time, is getting out in front of it first thing in the morning.  Every morning I do Mind Valley's Envisioning Process meditation, followed by Abraham Hicks Well Being Meditation. After that, depending on time, I sit in quiet meditation for 5 to 20 minutes and listen to something from Abraham Hicks to get me going. All this followed by a gentle stretch and a delicious cup of coffee, and finally the gratitude for each of the things I have done to honor me.  That is how I start in the my day IN THE VORTEX!!
