RE-FRAMING LAW OF ATTRACTION
For those of you who missed our first Quilt (Nov. 3, 2021) on re-framing the Law of Attraction, here is an overview of what we talked about…
Law of Attraction Traditionally centers on the following ideas -
Where attention goes, energy flows.
Our life experiences are determined by what we think about the most.
Positive focus brings positive manifestation.
First re-frame of the day –
What if we are jumping too quickly to manifestation instead of exploring in a soulful way what we really are after?
EXAMPLE – Have you ever gotten something you really wanted and then woken up the next day and it didn’t feel like what you thought it would feel like? Have you ever had something hard/unwanted happen but it ended up being of great benefit?
I want to encourage us to question what you are asking for, question what we are wanting. When a desire arises, to take some time to get into a spiritual space and gently ask what’s underneath – how do imagine having that thing will make you feel?
I think at this point in history (where we are a little broken down and bombarded by messaging through our screens) we need to consider the possibility that – for many reasons – we may not always know what we really want and if we rush into ‘manifesting’ we can get really off-course really fast and or experience a lot of needless frustration.
SOLUTION – Using our receptive mode more. Listening instead of telling (or at least prior to telling) – what your soul wants may be very different than what society tells us we want.
SUGGESTION – using creative visualization to listen first and ask ‘what’s underneath?’ – then dream into being
Second re-frame of the day –
You are not separate from the fabric of all things, you are both the weaver of AND woven into the infinite web of life we all share.
For instance – in traditional ‘manifestation’ processes we often call out for ‘things’ that – if everyone had them wouldn’t be sustainable for the earth herself. Connecting to All That Is upgrades the kinds of things we are calling out for. Maybe when we are hard at work manifesting a certain car or career we are missing the joy or purpose that is what we really want (and that likely the car or career may deliver in the short term, but likely not sustainably over time)… Maybe when we are manifesting wealth so we can feel safer we are missing the truth that when everyone has enough, we are all truly safer…
VISUALIZATION EXPERIMENT –
Bring to mind something you are ‘manifesting’.
Start to see it within the context of the whole world…
Third re-frame of the day –
Trauma is real and potentially holds the seeds of liberation.
To our souls the challenges we face as we go through life are the juice, the point. Think of a movie with no challenges in it? Could you even watch it without becoming bored that ‘nothing is happening’?
Humanity is clearly in a time of expansion and rapid evolution. It is clearly your destiny to be here at this time – because you are. Remembering that we are all connected - is it possible that the thorns in our sides are the keys to humanity’s expansion? Is it possible that as we heal, the world will heal?
Fourth re-frame of the day –
You can’t think your way into a manifestation, but you can live your way into it (and the more consciously connected you are to All that Is the easier it is to live your way into it bit by bit).
EXPERIMENT -
Right after you meditate, take time to figure out small, do-able ways to experience what you want to experience.
