I recently watched “The Secret” On Tubi which is a self-help documentary on the Law of Attraction. I had learned of this law in my 20's by listening to Abraham Hicks but Something really hit differently for me this time around. At the young and yet not so young age of 31, I found myself in tears by the end of the Documentary. I skipped doing the mundane Uber work that only brings in pennies on the dollar and allowed myself to be present…to discover that the only thing holding me back from living to my highest potential, was me.
I might be like you…wanting to blame the system, my mother and my fear-based upbringing, I wanted to blame everything instead of focusing on what good came from the misfortune…Instead of focusing on what I wanted in life, I was focused on what life did to me in the past and how it was sure to repeat itself.
I find that naturally, I embody the Law of attraction when Im traveling. On the road I let go of my worries, let go of my fear, and allow faith to take the wheel. I allow new experiences and am open to all that life has to offer. Maybe this is why I love travel so much , because when I travel, I am truly in alignment with the universe, I do not allow worry to swallow me up as I do when Im stuck in thought at home. So my question is, how can I channel this law of attraction even when Im still and at home? How can I channel feeling good when every fiber in me feels depressed, exhausted, overwhelmed, and my mind is thinking rapidly.
What has been helping me to ground, especially with so many tasks to juggle, is finding present moment awareness. Just for today ,I allow myself to lay in bed an extra few minutes to ease my way into the waking world. Just for today, I allow myself space to use my tools (breathe work )before I use a crutch (instantly gratifying substance/ behavior) to center myself. I feel more grounded than I ever have before by focusing on being more grounded than I ever have before. We are magical beings and our words are spells. This is why thoughts become things, our thoughts are words that have yet to leave the mouth, yet we channel the spell by believing the thoughts from within. This is why prayer and mantra are so powerful. You ask..you believe with your whole heart….and you receive….
Just for today, I apologize to myself, as I have been overthinking this whole process of being a wellness leader the last few years and have put way too much pressure on myself. Now that the pressure is gone, I look forward to being in community presently with you all. I am not perfect, but honoring my imperfections is perfection in itself. I understand that my past has heavily influenced where I am today, However I am moving forward and focusing now on what I want out of life. Which is more peace, more love, and more happiness. I am wishing you all the same!
