And thank you for the good news that is coming to me today!
Today’s “Act of Kindness”: I sent a “thank you” email to Kristina Bowen at Montgomery Elementary School in Montgomery, Vermont.
Today’s “Main Blessing”: I’m getting “into the groove” on how to do my meditations with the “air conditioner” video!
I went for a quick workout at Planet Fitness this morning, then to Panera Bread for a cup of coffee (see photo to the right) courtesy of the “Sip Club” that I joined yesterday. I see that I have a free bagel reward, but I’m going to wait to use this till I have earned it in terms of weight loss… 🙂
Now that I have finished “The Magic”, I’m going to solidify my daily routine and determine which aspects of this Kindle book ring true to me. I would love to keep everything, but that would be impossible, so I’m going to marry the concepts with this book from the Abraham Hicks YouTube videos I have been watching, to come up with a path forward. This does not mean that I won’t change it, as this will probably be a malleable routine moving forward, but you have to start somewhere.
It’s 1:15 pm and I just finished my daily meditation routine utilizing my “air conditioner” YouTube video. Here are some thoughts that might be helpful. After I listen to the intro in this video I ask, “The Source” what I want to achieve during this session, like “What is my next step” or “Show me how I am blessed”, then I try my best to calm my mind. I find that putting a smile on my face, curling in a ball (as I usually do this meditation while lying down on my bed), and thinking of myself talking to my best friend (my inner self), and truly enjoying the process. I focus on my breathing and then let “The Source” tell me gentle thoughts on what to do next, as I know that “The Source” knows what I truly want and need.
This afternoon I went back to Panera for my second visit for the day. This time I got a “Blood Orange” drink (also free via the “Sip Club). You can see it in the photo to the right.
I asked Bard the following question: “How do I create a list of things I want to manifest into my life according to Abraham Hicks”.
Here was the response:
Abraham Hicks is a spiritual teacher who teaches about the Law of Attraction, which is the belief that your thoughts and feelings create your reality. According to Hicks, you can manifest anything you want into your life by focusing on it and feeling good about it.
Here are some steps you can follow to create a list of things you want to manifest into your life according to Abraham Hicks:
- Take some time to think about what you really want in your life. What would make you happy and fulfilled? What are your goals and dreams? Once you have a good understanding of what you want, write down a list of specific things.
- Be as specific as possible in your list. For example, instead of writing “I want a lot of money,” write “I want to make $10,000 per month.” The more specific you are, the easier it will be to manifest your desires.
- Feel good about your list. When you’re thinking about the things you want to manifest, focus on the positive feelings associated with them. Imagine how you’ll feel when you have them in your life. The more positive you feel, the more likely you are to manifest your desires.
- Put your list in a place where you’ll see it often. This will help you to stay focused on your goals and dreams. You can put your list in a journal, on your fridge, or even on your phone.
- Revise your list regularly. As you achieve your goals and dreams, add new things to your list. You can also remove things from your list if you no longer want them.
