let's begin......
So here you sit. Last week we talked of meditation and the power of quieting your mind each day. This week we focused on the power of setting an intention for what you want. For those who are all about psychology, you should begin to appreciate the work being done here. The retraining of the mind to focus in a more directed manner. We have gotten lazy about being deliberate creators. Even when our life is at a critical point of needing to do something different we still aren't quite willing to wrestle back the use of our minds. Could it be that our minds have been in control for so long that it isn't ready to give up its control of how things should be done? Do we listen to our minds convince us that doing things differently will end disasterously. Our minds only regurgitate what they know and if you have been living a life of fear and powerlessness, that is exactly what you will hear in response to any thoughts that are unknown. What is it that you want? Right now.

For me, this was such a turning point. To understand that feelings were the way that Source/my Inner Being was communicating with me was something I had never heard before. I come from a family that was all about not showing emotion. Emotions were a sign of weakness and so on and so on. Somehow it made sense though. Why else would God have given us something that we wouldn't have a use for.
Emotions=Communication. It is how Spirit gets our attention. Makes complete sense. Once I started playing with this concept, my life changed. How the heck did I miss that one? Sometimes it gets tricky when I have a knee jerk response to something that I am not really wanting. But with some practice I have found that my feelings don't let me down. The more sensitive I get to how I feel, the better I feel in general. The better I feel the more I find my life experience bringing to me all the things I could ever hope for. Sure I still have some resistant or limiting thoughts that I want to turn around but cleaning up my emotional vibration has made all the difference
