A big key to manifesting is making sure that you are a vibrational match for what you are trying to manifest. That is actually the reason why some who teach the law of attraction tell you that you must be able to feel what you are attempting to manifest. What I mean is that if you are trying to manifest love into your life you must actually be able to feel as though you already have that and are currently living it. If you are living a live of love and joy where no matter what is going on in your environment you feel much love and joy and you spend the majority of time living from your heart and not your head then you will find that you will manifest the love you want because you are a vibrational match to it. Of course if you are living in anger, frustration and resentment you can understand that your vibrations will be a match for those things. So obviously you will not manifest love if you are instead a vibrational match to hate, anger and resentment.

Sometimes it can be or feel hard to get to a place where you feel like you are “Mary Sunshine.” If you are deep in some negative vibrations either because of emotional issues of your own or emotional issues of others affecting you, then it can seem like an impossible task but you have to believe in yourself and that you can be that happy-go-lucky person you envision. You may need to practice detachment. Be detached from those things in your environment that are really not your problem but the problems of others. Practicing detachment goes hand in hand with practicing acceptance. Acceptance of all things. Acceptance of those things which you can not change, a belief and understanding that everything that is and is happening is suppose to be happening. An understanding and belief that at this time and any given time everything is exactly as it should be. Stop living from your head! Stop trying to figure out before making a move whether you should or shouldn’t based on probabilities. Stop trying to figure out the future before hand because you will spend more time thinking than actually taking action.

Besides refusing to play the usual negative games with family, friends and strangers there are other things you can do. Practice acceptance, gratitude, and forgiveness. If you aren’t familiar with these…I will call them universal laws…you can search channeling’s on lightworkers.org as well as my blog. Even better, get the book by Dan Millman called The Laws of Spirit which is a small pocketbook written like a fictitious parable. Watch your thoughts closely and anytime you find yourself beginning to think negatively about a person or situation stop yourself immediately and instead think of something good and positive about that person or situation. In the beginning it may feel like you are faking it but soon you will find it begins to come more naturally to you and feels good to you as well. Do things that put you in a good and happy mood such as listening to your favorite upbeat music, doing something that will leave you feeling pleased with yourself like cleaning and organizing your closet or rearranging your kitchen cabinets. We usually put off doing those things but yet tackling a project like that will leave you feeling very good and positive about yourself that it will increase your vibrations. Fast for a day or two. Not many people mention this as a way to increase your vibrations but fasting will give your body a break from all that work it has to do with digestion and instead allow it to do some housecleaning (within the body) of it’s own and will leave you feel refreshed and lighter. SING! Yes, sing. Sing in the shower or hum a favorite tune to yourself. Not only will it increase your vibrations but it will also do wonders for your throat chakra. Be the creator God you are. Do something creative like arts and crafts or even a puzzle. Connect with your friends and neighbors. Visit a couple of your neighbors just to chat or if you don’t know your neighbors well enough for that then maybe it is time to attempt to get to know them better. Connect with friends and loved ones you haven’t talked to in a while. The surprise contact will bring joy and happiness to both of you.

There are many things you can do that will help to increase your vibrations and what I have listed above are but a few. I am sure you can think of many more things and activities that will help increase your vibrations including prayers and chanting mantras.

I was thinking this morning and before I started smelling burning rubber something came to me. Ego is always thought of as something bad that should be always controlled. That maybe be true but when someone responds or speaks with ego is that a sign of something that we should be paying attention to?

If you hear me boasting one day that I helped out a friend and gave them a considerable amount of money to help them out of a jam and I seemed to really go on and on about myself and how I was able to do that you might be thinking “Oh, well she shouldn’t be bragging about it because that is her letting her ego come out to the forefront.” But there is another way to think about it. Could my ego stepping out like that be a sign that I am in need of something? Some kind words maybe? A simple thank you from someone?

It is true that we shouldn’t give and need something in return for it. However, everyone needs reassurance at times and to feel they are appreciated. Gratitude and appreciation are very important to express. But often it is expressed silently and not direct. I mean not directly to the person or people.

The Law of Attraction teaches that before you can expect good things to come that you need to express gratitude for the things you have and those things you are waiting to come to you as though you already have them. Gratitude is very powerful as anyone who practices the law of attraction knows.

Could the ego people show be a sign and give you an opportunity to express gratitude and appreciation to someone? Could the ego be expressing what the person is in need of. And if the person was getting all their ego needs fulfilled then there would be less reason and less moments when their ego feels the need to come out and show itself in a negative way.

And related to empath’s…wow! Imagine that an empath would have the ability to always know when someone was in need of something that would help the other person keep their ego in check. What am I saying then? I am saying that as an empath when you feel certain emotions from people that is an excellent opportunity for you to put your empathy to work in a great way. Feeling someones jealousy? Take the time to tell them how nice you think they are and other compliments specific to them. Feeling that someone thinks they are better than everyone? Give them a compliment that you are impressed with them and what they do. Use that empathy to not only feel what people need but to give them that boost that will help them put their ego back and check and make the world and even nicer place.

Okay…I don’t smell burning rubber any more so I think that is all I have to say. lol. Please feel free to post a comment and give your opinions…especially those of you with more expertise with the subject of ego.

Thought is very powerful. The things you think throughout the day don’t just sit in your brain. The thoughts are carried out into the universe fueled by your positive or negative energy. For example, a person who often says “I have such bad luck” probably does because that is what he is putting out into the universe and the universe says back to him “Ahhhh I see…this person wants bad luck and I know that cause he keeps put this thought about bad luck out here to me…cool…POOF!”

My son I beleive has railroaded me with his thought about school which is getting ready to start. I had every confidence that in two weeks he would be starting school again. His last year before it’s time to start kindergarden. There is a form the school needs which I needed to get filled out by someone else. Well, I hadn’t gotten it as of this past week. I was asked about it and explained that the school said blah blah blah there might not be an open space if you wait to long. Then in talking to my son about school shopping for supplies and his going back he repeatedly told me “I am not going back to school!” And then he stomps off of course quite confident in what he has stated.

Well as of this morning the school says there is no space left blah blah blah. lol. I did actually laugh when I heard this cause I was thinking about the power of thought and that my little 4 year old out power thoughted me. lol.

What will I do? Simple…I got one thing at least on my 4 year old…the power of Reiki and the law of attraction. Well…I will let you know if it turned out that I have enough brain power to compete against the likes of a 4 year old. lol.

If you have ever had to deal with a difficult person you know it is not something you ever look forward to. Actually you find yourself dreading being face to face with them because in your mind you can already see a bad outcome to the situation. You probably even see them getting the best of you and causing you to start having negative feelings and thoughts which is something you don’t want to do.

The Law of Attraction teaches us that our negative emotions and thoughts flow outward on energy within the universe and then at some time in the future flows back to us. Negative out gives us negative back in. As you are practicing the Laws of Attraction and feeling that you are getting really good at manifesting good things for yourself it seems that negative things will sometimes try to slip into the mix. A negative co-worker, family member, or cashier at the grocery store. Some think of these negativities that try to sneak in as resistance. Think of the Law of Attraction like a Mario Bros. game. You have levels that you are trying to conquer in order to reach the next level. The final level may be the goal you are working towards. That ultimate manifestation may be wealth or your dream husband. Before completing every level a monster forms out of the blue that you must get around to reach the end of the path to move up to the next level. Notice that I didn’t say you had to fight the monster. No, you must peacefully get around the monster leaving the monster in tact to go about his business. You are of course not going to pop your co-worker in the eye and then jump up and down thinking you are moving to the next level unless your aim is unemployment. No, you have to move around your co-workers so that you can continue successfully manifesting your desires without any hindrance.

When it comes to dealing with a difficult person do not fall into the trap of thinking negatively about them. Think of things to appreciate them for. If it is a family member you can appreciate them because they love you, they always invite you to family functions, they have taught you many important things in the past, and they treat your children well are some examples. If it is a co-worker you can appreciate them because they are always on time for work, they don’t talk a lot at work and cause a disturbance, they are good at their job, and you don’t have to share an office with them.

The next step is visualizing them dealing with you in the manner you would like. The family member greets you warmly and is very interested in you and your life. She or he always has positive things to say to you. She or he makes you feel very good and loved. The co-worker greets you in the morning in passing but says no more than that. She or he only communicates with you if they have something positive to say. She or he positively compliments you and asks like your best friend when dealing with you.

Now, start smiling and thinking of something that makes you feel a strong emotion such as love or gratitude. I usually think of the birth of my son. Feel yourself feeling more and more ecstatically happy. As you are doing this and visualizing, really feeling the situation above, state you intents and wants. Continue until you really feel and believe what you are saying. Remember that even after you have finished this throughout the day you do need to keep some focus on the intentions.

With more and more practice you will find this easier and quicker to do with better results each time.

Dealing with a difficult situation isn’t that much different from dealing with a difficult person. The process is mainly the same except that you are not dealing with a person. You may be dealing with getting in and out of an always crowded grocery store quickly and easily. Or you may be dealing with the issue of heavy traffic. This method works very well on traffic situations if you make sure to practice the Law of Attraction every day and make it a part of your life from now on. I use a statement for myself that is “I always get to work (or whether you are traveling to) quickly, easily and safely.” When I first started using that statement while driving I would say it pretty much the whole time I was driving, but now I can just think it periodically and it works just as well.

Practice and make sure you come back and leave a comment letting me and everyone else know about your experiences.
