WHAT IS THE LAW OF
ATTRACTION
AND
HOW DO I BUST THE BELIEFS THAT BIND ME
AND
EMBRACE MY FINE, DIVINE SELF?
There
is much talk and hype and programs and seminars based upon the Law of
Attraction. But just what is it? There are a lot of versions and
misconceptions and so I bring you *my* perspective.
The
Law of Attraction is ONE of MANY Universal Laws. The Law of
Attraction, as it is most commonly called these days (this name was
made popular by Abraham-Hicks),
is also called The Law of Divine Right, The Law of Good, The Law of
Deliberate Creation, The Law of Creation, The Law of Love and some even
equate it to Karma.
The
Law of Attraction says that like attracts like; that everything
is vibratory in nature and like vibrations attract like
vibrations. The Law of
Attraction says that what you think about, and even more
importantly, what you feel and therefore vibrate, you attract. If you are feeling
bad, you attract more of that feeling to you. If you are feeling
joyful and prosperous, you attract more of that to you.
We are
vibrational beings living in a vibrational Universe. The
Law of Attraction is God/Source's way of giving us our own Divine Power
to create our own lives through our choices about how we feel, and
therefore what we vibrate. We have creative power in our
lives because we have the power of choice about how we feel!
The Law of
Attraction is no Secret, this information has been available all
along, it's just been forgotten or ignored. The
Law of Attraction is more than the simplified explanation of
"Like attracts Like". The Law of Attraction works because it is YOUR DIVINE
PLAN to create what you want and so when your vibration matches the
vibration of that which you desire, it comes to you by Universal Law. It is your BIRTHRIGHT to
live your Divine Plan!
Think
about it. Where do our desires and dreams come from?
Why do we have them? The
Really Great News is that we
desire and dream about the things that are
part of our Divine Path and that are ours by Divine Right! God
is not a tease. God is Good. He wouldn’t have you desire those things
if they couldn’t be yours!
There
is nothing you can imagine that you can’t be, do or have, as long as it is for
the Good of all and on your Divine Path. Your Divine Path is as incredible as you think your life can be,
only better! Your life is
only limited by your own thoughts and limiting
beliefs. Start thinking unlimited
thoughts! Start to feel unlimited! KNOW YOU ARE
WORTHY AND GET WITH THE PLAN. YOUR PLAN!!!
The
Law of Attraction is not about controlling the entire Universe with your
mind or thinking that you are better or more powerful than God. The Law
of Attraction is part of all the Universal Laws and it is
always working whether you believe it or acknowledge it or not. The Law
of Attraction is about knowing that you are a divine spiritual being, a co-Creator
with God, an extension of Source Energy who deserves and can have everything you desire and therefore
can attract it by ALLOWING IT and ALIGNING YOUR VIBRATION AND ENERGY TO
MATCH THAT WHICH YOU WANT.
The Law of Attraction is
not about just visualizing your life away, but acting on the Divinely
Inspired messages and intuition that will come in magical ways when you create
your life in a conscious way and listen to your INNER BEING and
GUIDANCE. And it is about sharing and giving, which
in turn, attracts more Good to you!
You
can certainly attract many material things into your life. But if you
use the Law of Attraction only for material things, or because you
want things that others have, you could actually be holding back your
true Good, your true Divine Path from yourself. Discover what
your True Divine Path is, and the Law of Attraction will be magnified
a thousand times and miracles and magic will start flowing!
The Law of Attraction
also has a scientific side, which is why it is so widely accepted by
so many people. It combines both the spiritual and
scientific! The scientific side of the Law of Attraction states
that everything, people, animals, rocks, trees, everything is
energy. All energy has a vibration and you attract to you the
things that are vibrating at the same wave length as you. In
fact, EVERYTHING HAS A VIBRATION AND IS VIBRATING!
Lately
I have been hearing a lot of people saying that they are giving up on
the Law of Attraction (LOA). They are tired of hearing about it, tired
of the thousands of websites, seminars and self improvement programs
promising the moon and the stars with the LOA because it just does not
seem to work for them.
The
truth is, the Law of Attraction is ALWAYS working, it is Universal
Law, but if you are not vibrating in the energetic vicinity of what
you desire, you are not going to get it. When people are not getting
what they want, they think the Law of Attraction does not work. But
sorry, folks, there is no getting out of Universal Law. It is working;
you are just not allowing it to work in your favor.
Another
reason people don’t want to hear about the Law of Attraction is
because they don’t want to be responsible for their own lives. They
find it easier to blame others for everything that happens to them or
blame some cruel God who punishes us for our sins.
I
also think the recent turn from focus on the Law of Attraction by many
whom have been teaching it for a long time now is that the LOA just
IS. It’s like gravity, and we don’t talk about gravity all day
long trying to figure out how to use it to our advantage in our lives.
We don’t go around trying to “invoke” gravity. We just KNOW it
IS and act accordingly. Why keep talking about it and trying to get it
to work for us? It already is working for us. People don’t have to
know anything about gravity to stay planted on the ground, nor do they
need to know of or believe in the Law of Attraction to attract like
energy. It’s a given.
Before
the term “Law of Attraction” became so popular, I learned it as
the “Law of Love” or the “Law of Divine Orchestration”. It is
only in recent years that Law of Attraction has become the buzz phrase
for this Universal Law.
There
is no doubt that like energy and vibration attracts like energy and
vibration; that is the proven scientific explanation. But spiritually,
the explanation is that Divine Super Intelligence loves us
unconditionally and wants to give us what we want. So to make it easy,
and not overwhelming like Jim Carey in Bruce Almighty, Source let us
be our own self sufficient creators, each of us holding the power that
creates worlds within us. Why would we ever think/feel/vibrate
anything that we don’t want knowing that we are powerful creators
who create our reality with our thoughts/feelings/vibration? Like
duh!!! But there is a reason why we hold ourselves back.
For
me the focus has more shifted from concentrating on the Law of
Attraction to focusing on the beliefs we have acquired during our
lifetime, some of them outdated and limiting, and re-wiring those to
match what we truly want. Our beliefs filter our perception of life,
how we see ourselves and others. Our beliefs are there to protect us
and keep us safe; we created them early on when we observed something
and made a decision about it. Or maybe we heard someone say something
like “You will never amount to anything”, or “Don’t eat that,
you will get fat,” or “You have to work hard to make money,” and
boom, a belief is born. Our forming brains soaked it up like a sponge
and made it true for us. But what we thought we needed to keep us safe
as children is no longer valid as adults, especially as we evolve and
expand. We need to learn to adjust and amend and re-wire until our
beliefs match our desires so that we get what we desire by Divine
Universal Law.
It
doesn't take rocket science to figure out where you are vibrating on
any given subject. Just look at your bank account, your relationships,
your career. What you are getting is what you are vibrating. Every
time. And if you are not getting what you want, you have beliefs that
are keeping you where you are. Bust the limiting beliefs and you are
free!
If
you are saying positive affirmations, created a vision board,
visualize and keep a lucky charm in your pocket but you are still not
manifesting your desires, you have subconscious limiting beliefs that
say “no you can’t, no you aren’t, it’s not going to happen,”
that sabotage your positive actions. All the affirmations in the world
are not going to work if your underlying core belief is that you are
not worthy of your dreams.
Why
do we ever not follow our dreams? Why do we limit ourselves and
justify and settle? Sometimes beliefs are so ingrained and so a part
of who we are, we don’t even realize they are there and that they
are limiting us. But if you not living the life of your dreams, you
definitely have limiting beliefs holding you back from being the
unlimited being that you truly are. Let’s bust em up now!
There
are many ways to bust your limiting beliefs:
It is
helpful to first identify your limiting beliefs. One way to identify
them is to become a conscious thinker. Become observant to your
thoughts. Become present and in the moment to what you are thinking
about. Notice and observe your thoughts instead of just letting them
run on and on. Stop yourself and think about what you are thinking!
The background running thoughts that we think without thinking are the
subconscious mind running our core patterns and beliefs.
Our
conscious mind says, “I am happy, wealthy and healthy, see I even
wrote it one hundred times and cut out pictures about it!” And our
subconscious mind says, “Oh, no, you’re not, remember that time
they told you that you are stupid and would never amount to
anything?” And the subconscious dominate belief wins.
Become a conscious thinker and notice when your mind chatter is saying
“I’m not good enough, I can never do that, I’ll never have a lot
of money.” When you notice those thoughts, don’t get upset with
yourself. Just gently bring your thoughts to positive statements such
as, “I am worthy, The Universe is loving and supports me, I am
abundant in all ways.” With time and repetition, you will start to
believe them.
The
key here is focus and repetition. Repetition rewires. You can
literally rewire the neurons in your brain to create a new path that
connects to new core beliefs. Dr. Joe Dispenza of What the Bleep? fame
says it takes seventeen days to rewire the neurons in your brain to
create to new core beliefs and habits.
I
love to use RAPs (Repetitive Audio Programs - such as the guided
visualization found in my
store) for fast and efficient
rewiring. RAPs are selected affirmations repeated over and over while
you meditate or sleep. When you are in a theta brain wave state, your
subconscious is open to receive new information without resistance,
making for fast and easy reprogramming. I put on the mp3 before I go
to sleep, and then all night the recorded statements are seeping into
my subconscious, rewiring my beliefs while I dream. This is my kind of
rewiring
The
only problem with repetitive programs is that some people don’t
stick with them. They do it for a few days or a week, declare it
doesn’t work and then go looking for the next speaker or seminar or
book to give them the answer. The problem is, wherever you go, there
your beliefs are.
People
will also find that resistance can come up after a short while of
using a repetitive program. As we are reprogramming our core beliefs,
events or emotions come up that need to be released and it can become
a bit uncomfortable, so we stop using them.
Be patient, give yourself a break, you have been running these
patterns and beliefs for most of your life and the prize you get for
releasing them and replacing them is well worth the effort. After all,
it’s your life!
Another
very effective method for releasing limiting beliefs and old emotional
baggage is the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). EFT uses the energy
meridian points on your body, the same ones used for acupuncture. You
simply tap on these points in order while going through a sequence of
statements that relate to your issue. I have seen miraculous results
using EFT and have added it to my coaching practice because it is so
quick and easy. EFT is becoming more and more popular as people
discover its powerful and rapid belief release abilities.
While
I have not yet explored it myself, I have heard great things from
people I highly respect about using the Sedona Method for releasing
limiting beliefs, so I mention it here.
Hypnotherapy
is also great for easily getting to your core beliefs and replacing
them with new ones. You can visit a qualified hypnotherapist or even
find a self hypnosis program that will guide you into a relaxed theta
state and then feed you some new beliefs to hang onto.
Do
some research and follow your inner guidance and intuition to find
which method will work best for you. It might be one or a combination
of them. YOU will know what is best for you. Trust your guidance and
what calls to you.
All
these methods are great for helping you to release limiting beliefs
that no longer serve you, however they are in addition to, and do not
take the place of, becoming, right NOW, the person you want to be.
Step right into who you really are, your true authentic self.
Limitless. Free. Joyful. Abundant. Loving. Be happy now, appreciate
what you have now, start to live out your dreams now!
How
would you feel if you were living your dreams right now? What would
you do? How would you walk, talk, be? Stop seeking and start BEING. Be
it NOW, and be it consistently, and watch your limiting beliefs fall
away fast! Talk about instant vibrational alignment!
Surround
yourself with people who support you in your new beliefs. Read my
ebook!! Get a life
coach who will
guide you into your dreams and be your cheerleader. Join or form a
master mind group where you all support and hold each other in the
vision of who you really are. Join positive groups that are aligned
with your vision. There is big power in numbers. Take constant
inspired action steps towards your dreams. Let go of blame, anger, old
emotions and baggage that no longer serve you. Follow your heart and
intuition. Take time each and every day for your enlightenment and
expansion and health. Overcome the limiting beliefs that bind you and
set yourself free!
When
you align your core beliefs with your desires, there will be no
stopping you. Like gravity, you will not have to think about the Law
of Attraction working ever again. You will be too busy living your
dreams!
Whether you believe
in The Law of Attraction or not, you can still visualize your
dreams, think and feel positive thoughts, take inspired action, and do unto others
as you'd have them do unto you! That is all good stuff!
