Greetings!

Welcome to today's edition of your A-to-Z Guide to a Richly Abundant Life!

As you read this, I'm packing up and moving to the new place I found last Thursday.

This process has been a real journey, as I discovered how much space and proximity to the ocean my budget can handle right now.

I had no idea I carried so many judgments about people and neighborhoods in Los Angeles ... which made me feel like I didn't like anything I could afford, or afford anything I liked. That's a painful state of mind!

In letting go of my attachment to the judgments (including condemning myself for judging!), and blessing each place and person for being exactly as they are, I began to find peace of mind again.

Seeing what I didn't want gave me more clarity about what I did want.

So when the right place came along, it was easy to recognize.

Things have been going smoothly since then, with many friends - including my new landlord (!) - offering to help with the move.

I feel so very loved and blessed. How does it get better than this?

I don't know, but I'll find out - and so will you, in the pages of this newsletter. In the meantime, enjoy!

With today's edition of our A-to-Z guide comes my heartfelt prayers for your infinite abundance and boundless prosperity, ! 

With love and appreciation,

Moira

 

 

D is for "Deserving"

You're already worthy! 

 

Abundance Victory Dance!Why is a fine person like you still struggling financially, when mean moguls who plunder pension funds live large?


Is it because the Universe is unfair?
Or is it possible those mean moguls believe they deserve abundance - and you believe you do not?


In each case, the Universe does unto us as we believe. What could be fairer than that?


What keeps you from believing you deserve abundant money, love, freedom and all that other great stuff?

 

As long as you operate from the premise that deserving (and therefore abundance) must be earned, you will never be abundant because your mind will always move the "Deserving" goalpost farther down the playing field, so whatever you do - it's never enough.


You can never win because the object of this mind game is not to win. It's to stay in the game.


When you realize your deservingness is the field itself, the basis upon which you play ... you start winning.


What do you need to realize or release for you to be your own cheerleader ... your own champion ... your own victory dancer?

D is for "Detachment" 
Stop the suffering

 Who's really the Boss? 

If, as the Buddha suggests, attachment is the root of all suffering, it follows that suffering can be relieved by cultivating detachment.


Detachment means letting go of your attachment to people behaving in a certain way, situations turning out in a certain way, or your day going in a certain way. 

 

In short, you resign your post as General Director of the Universe.


How much more peaceful will you feel when you let go of the fantasy that you can control anything or anyone outside yourself?


Many empathic, sensitive people - perhaps even you? - resist detachment because they believe it means they have to stop caring about other people, animals, the rain forest - whatever.


Nothing could be further from the truth. 

Detachment gives you and others the dignity of living life on our own terms.

 

This is where and how Abundance begins. 

How much more abundant will you feel when you realize the Universe wants even more for you than you do?

 

D is for "Dignity"

You are as God made you


Give Dog and Man their Dignity

When you look at a dog, do you ever think, "You ought to be a frog"?

 

Never, right? It's virtually automatic for you to give the dog the dignity of its dog-ness, 

making it absurd to think it should be anything other than a dog. 

 

Why, then, can it be so difficult to give yourself and others the dignity of being who they are? How does it serve you to wish you or your mother, for instance, were a lot less "X" or a lot more "Y," when you are each a beloved Child of God?

 

What would happen if you gave yourself and others the dignity you give a dog?


How much more abundant will you feel if you stop focusing on what's lacking in yourself or others, and start focusing on the good qualities already present in yourself and those around you? 

Try this at home for "Detachment" 

To create more abundance today

 

Click here to listen to me walk you through this exercise

 
Breathe. Center. Ground.

Here's a way to start detaching those tendrils of attachment, while still being the loving and caring person you are, and attracting more abundance along the way. How cool is that? 

Find a private place to sit
Close your eyes and breathe in and out three times, as deeply and comfortably as you can. Call to mind a person whose behavior distresses you, or a situation that's got you tied up in knots. Notice how your body feels when you think about what's distressing you.

  1. Ask yourself, "Am I willing to accept the person/situation?" Whether the answer is yes or no, it's okay.
  2. Ask yourself, "Am I willing to forgive the person/situation?" Whether the answer is yes or no, it's okay.
  3. Say, "I now ask my Higher Power to bless the person/situation" and imagine your Higher Power showering blessings over the person or situation.

Call again to mind the person or situation you've been focusing on in this exercise. Notice how your body feels when you think about them now. 

If you still feel distress, repeat the exercise until you feel neutral or peaceful about the person or situation. 

If you feel okay about the matter now, repeat this exercise as needed with anything else bothering you. 

This helps you effortlessly bless your way to Abundance.  

Good job! Well done! Thank you!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read or listen to these thoughts I've been inspired to share with you, . I hope you find them useful or entertaining or otherwise valuable.

As we've seen in today's "D" listings in our A-to-Z Guide to a Richly Abundant Life, according Dignity and Deservingness to yourself and others opens the door for Abundance to flow to you because you're broadcasting the frequency of "Yes" rather than "No."

Whatever you desire for yourself, I say "Yes!" to it. Will you say "Yes" to it, too?

Whichever you choose, I'm sure it's for the best.

Wishing you all the best, today and every day,

 

Moira Shepard
