OPENING THE DOOR TO YOUR BEST YEAR EVER

The meeting opened with introductions and EDDIE CONNER (EDDIECONNER.COM) provided a guided visualization to connect members with their highest heart’s desire.

RAMONA showed a video clip of her experience with INA AND THE ALCHEMISTS.  The highlight of her session was when the Alchemists suggested to Ramona that she avoid resistance by envisioning herself as a greased pig, so slippery that she is unable to hold on to the resistant thought.

INA will be at SpiritWorks next Tuesday, January 19, from 7 to 9:30 PM for a special session with Burbank Law of Attraction Group members.  The cost is $45.  INA is a trans-channeller similar to Esther Hicks, and THE ALCHEMISTS are similar to ABRAHAM. The size of the audience is limited so your chance of getting into the “hot seat” is much better. The session will be recorded and we expect to offer DVDs and downloads for sale soon thereafter.

We viewed a segment (Why does he deny himself the practices that work?) from Abraham’s DVD “Laying New Pipes – Cancun 2013”.  Since this is a DVD there is no link available.

RAMONA asked members to share the good parts of their 2015 and why it is important to focus on the good parts. Responses included keeping positive momentum flowing into 2016.  Abraham’s message is about believing you can have what you want; you can create the best life you desire by having fun, flowing energy, laughing, being joyous and being of service to others.  Volunteering is a great way to generate more beautiful energy especially because it feels good to your heart.  Some members use breathing techniques to raise their vibration and their heart’s desire.  Our perceptions are important.  By changing our perception about difficult subjects can open us up to greater ease with those subjects.  Being in a space of allowing can take us into new directions for the joy of it.

MASTERMIND SESSION.  

HOW TO MAINTAIN POSITIVE THOUGHTS.

The first discussion was about maintaining positive thoughts in their purest form.  It’s about what we feel when we think a thought.  When resistance pops up acknowledge it, admit it, speak it out loud.  This can free up the negative frequency and bring clarity.  Look for the good in all situations.  Fear is on the emotional guidance scale – look it up and move to feelings that are higher on the scale.  Upon awakening start your day in an appreciative vortex, a happy, feel-good place, so you stay relaxed throughout the day.  Some say “I am grateful I am alive” when they awake, and “I am grateful for my day” when they go to sleep. Others use the “yes, yes, yes” mantra. 

HOW TO FEEL GOOD WHEN YOU JUST DON’T KNOW THE ISSUE.

Sometimes we don’t know what the problem is, we just don’t feel good.  Trying to find out what our resistance is can create even more resistance so be careful.  Focus on the solution, not the problem because focusing on the negative brings more negative.  Instead, focus on the things that work for us or provide lightness.  FEAR is an acronym for false evidence appearing real.  When we are fearful, acknowledge that it is not real.  Learn to love yourself in an unconditional manner.  Tell yourself the truths you know – “I am a good person”; “I am kind”; “people like me”.  Asking yourself what you love about yourself will help us grow into our power in natural ways.

ABRAHAM TRICKS TO FEEL BETTER FAST.

Go general

Remember you created it so say “Thank Me”.

Say “Everything is always working out for me”.

Take a nap.

Do a rampage of appreciation.

Pivot away from the negative.

Do the placemat process.

Summon life force energy.

Have a sense of humor.

Do Abraham’s 30-day challenge.

Focus on how you want your reality to be.

Live on your high-flying disc.

Watch Abraham videos.

Listen to beautiful music.

Stay in a vacation frequency.

Stay light, fun and adventurous.

Remind yourself how powerful you are.

All of these are great ways to have a sweet ’16.

Our closing video was Abraham-HicksThe Hilarious Cat Story – Cancun 2014. 

Our next meeting is a special one on January 19 with Ina and the Alchemists.  Our next regular meeting will be February 9.    

ARE YOU READY TO STOP BEING SO HARD ON YOURSELF? (The New Step 5)

Ramona welcomed the group and introduced EDDIE CONNER who provided another outstanding guided meditation “Be Kind to Yourself”, otherwise known as “Treehouse”.  And a big thank you to Eddie for taking notes, especially since the recorder did not work this time.  Be sure to check out Eddie’s website for information on his Spiritual Peru Trip.  Deadlines are fast approaching.

After group sharing of our “new stories” the opening video was shown – “The Essence of Step 5”.  

Ramona reviewed Abraham’s first 4 steps and the new step 5, as follows:

ABRAHAM’s 5 STEPS

1.  ASK – Contrast causes asking.

          Do you ever experience contrast?  Source provides us contrast to cause us to send rockets of desire so we can create bigger, better and brighter physical manifestations. 

2.  ALLOW – Source answers by vibrationally assembling everything necessary.

          First, manifest by “going general”. It makes us feel more pure positive energy and provides the Universe with all that is necessary to prepare your manifestation to materialize.

3.  BE AWARE OF EMOTIONS - You find yourself in a vibrational match to what the Vortex has waiting for you.  Always in the direction of alignment.

          When we feel bliss we are in the flow of the Universe’s abundance.  Desperation puts up roadblocks; worrying creates blocks and activates more contrast.  When we vibrate lack we attract lack; when we vibrate joy we attract joy.  Becoming aware of what you say to yourself about yourself, and changing it into positive words can shift us to a higher vibration.  The same words said in different ways can carry different vibrations.

4.  MAINTAIN A RECEPTIVE MODE – More consistently acknowledging the condition hasn’t changed but your alignment has.   It is a matter of having practiced it until you’re consistently there. 

          Align yourself with Source for the sake of aligning, not to make something happen.  Do not become ruffled by what others are living – do an Abe process to soothe yourself about that issue.  Be happy where you are – use an Abe process if needed.  Just be satisfied with what is.  If not familiar with Abe’s processes, a good book to explain them is “Ask and it is Given” by Esther and Jerry Hicks.

5.  ACCEPT CONTRAST - This is the most fun.  Step 5 is WELCOMING CONTRAST. You no longer need to beat yourself up for feeling contrast.  You are sure of where you are and you’re in love with this world of variety.  When a contrasting thing happens, you are able to acknowledge its value.   We are inspired by Source. 

As humans we can choose “from spirit” to enjoy contrast and use it to get back into the vortex.  Condition your core essence to BELIEVE you can have what your heart desires.  Make clear, pure decisions that feel peaceful in your solar plexus to get back into the receiving mode.  Make sure your intention does not carry any attachment – that will make you feel better and put you back in the flow.

The closing video was “PetHorse Becomes Racing Champion”.  

Our next meeting will be December 8, 2015 and will be our annual Holiday Pot Luck.

THE ART OF BUT-FREE LIVING

Thank you Eddie Conner for hosting this month's meetup.  And thank you Linda Boggs for taking these notes.

Be aware. Whatever you are aware of you are in control of.  Whatever you are not aware of is in control of you.

Love, light, empathy and joy vibrate freedom.

Here is the B-U-T.

B - Be aware when you are contradicting your energy.  Take a nap to raise your pure, positive energy.  What's inside of you creates your reality.

U - Undo the BUT belief.

T - Transcend and go into the light.

Whatever precedes the BUT gets erased.

Live from the gut first (feelings), then the heart, then the head.

AND - Another New Desire.

YES - Your Electromagnetic Soul.

Every time you think a thought or feel a feeling, you are praying.

Remember - whenever you are aware of something, you are in control.

ISN’T IT TIME TO START TELLING A NEW STORY?

After Ramona welcomed members and guests, Eddie Conner (Click Here for Eddie's Website) provided an inspiring meditation to meet our higher self and begin to live a new story.  And a big thank you to Eddie for always taking such great notes for our blog.

The opening video was “You Have to Tell a New Story – Abraham” 

Ramona asked the group “How’s your life going? Are your relationships fulfilling? How is that bank account looking? Do you love your work and feel good about your level of success? If you had a magic wand, what areas of your life would you change?”

What blocks us are outside forces. These outside forces are magnetized to us based on our internal vibrations. There’s always someone who seems to have an opinion about how you should behave. Abraham tells us to remember no matter where you are, right at the very moment, feel happy. You can’t stay on track between where you are and where you want to be if you are using those outside influences to guide you. The only guidance you need comes from Source.

Are there areas of your life that could use some tweaking? Great!  Just tell a new story about each of those areas. Starting right now tell the story of your life the way you want it to be. You want to tell an empowering story that works for you rather than against you.

Ramona provided an example of how she deals with sciatica. When the pain hits, her first instinct is to be upset and concentrate on the pain and discomfort.  Then she remembers what we all know – find something to feel good about, get out of the way and allow the cells to receive what they are asking for. That is the key to healing. Then she recites Abe’s words “My body knows what to do. Well-Being is natural to me. My Inner-Being is intricately aware of my physical body. My cells are asking for what they need in order to thrive, and Source Energy is answering those requests.”

We need to accept that there is a vibrational version of our story that is different from the version we practice most. They are not the same, and it is probably good they don’t coincide if we are not practicing clear thoughts. If your life isn’t going the way you want, it’s time to start hanging out with your future rather than your past.

We must learn to love ourselves. This will change our lives for the better. It will help us tweak our stories little by little which will result in gradual but meaningful shifts in our lives. Then start telling yourself your new story – the way you want your life to be. Let the old stories be a thing of the past and create a new story. The more you tell your new story, the more you will believe it.

We have billions of beings of intelligence within us. Cells that know what is best for themselves. As they find what’s best for themselves, it’s ultimately what’s best for you unless you are focused upon something unwanted and using that as your excuse to block the flow.

Realize that if we walk around verbalizing someone else’s old story we have made it our own. Thinking about how the Law of Attraction works brings us to the realization that everything you or anyone else is living, everything that is being lived by anyone, is in response to the story they are telling. Period!

Eddie has said that people who come to a Law of Attraction meetup are wanting to break away from their old story and create a new one. Now is the time to do just that.

How do we get rid of those old stories that no longer serve us?  Just stop telling them. Thank them for whatever purpose they served in the past. Then get rid of them, never to be thought of again. Sometimes visualizations help. Place them in a trunk, chain it closed like Houdini, and drop it in the ocean. Or write out the old story on paper, place it crumpled up in a dish, and burn it. Whatever your course of action, you must let go of the old story.

Here are some points of Abraham wisdom to help you create your new story.

You've got to stop talking about how things are if you don't like them and you've got to start talking about how you'd like things to be.

As you imagine and visualize and verbalize your new story, in time you will believe the new story, and when that happens, the evidence will flow swiftly into your experience.

Start telling a better-feeling story about the things that are important to you. Do not write your story like a factual documentary, weighing all the pros and cons of your experience, but instead tell the uplifting, fanciful, magical story of the wonder of your own life and watch what happens. It will feel like magic as your life begins to transform right before your eyes, but it is not by magic.

You can say things like: Only good things come to me... I'll figure it out as I go along... Every time you tell your BETTER_FEELING story, you will feel better, and the details of your life will improve. The better it gets, the better it gets.

There is no right or wrong way to tell your improved story. It can be about your past, present, or future experiences.

Start a notebook or Journal and call it "MY LIFE STORY" and you begin writing Chapter 1: My life story relative to Abundance, and you just fabricate a fabulous fairy tale that is pleasing to you. This is the new virtual me.  Abraham promises you, if you tell that story for just a little while, instead of the story you've been telling. As you begin telling the story differently, it is Abraham’s promise to you that the Universe will back your story up with evidence.

Begin telling the story of your desire. And then add to it the details of the positive aspects that you can find that match those desires. And then embellish your positive expectation by speculating with your good feeling. Wouldn't it be nice if...?

Telling many good-feeling short stories throughout your day will change your point of attraction. Just remember that the story you tell is the basis of your life. So tell it the way you want it to be. Try to hear the story the Source within you sees.

REMEMBER that you came forth to Live Happily Ever After.

Our closing video was Israel Kamakawiwo’ole singing Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World.   

Abraham has this meditative paragraph to assist us in changing our frame of mind to the positive. “Everything I desire flows to me easily and joyfully. I make feeling good the most important thing and I am getting really good at keeping my vibration high by choosing thoughts that feel good. I am filled with appreciation, always looking for more to appreciate and enjoy. I love my life. I love myself. I love my family and friends. I’m a magnet for amazing prosperity, vibrant good health and loving relationships. I am a successful, confident, prosperous, loving, generous, happy person.”

Our next meeting will be September 1.
