Focus on the good stuff

This Friday I had a pleasant experience. Since the knittee is here to visit, he wanted to practice a bit of table tennis. Usually I accompany him to give him a ride, watch some games, knit, and so forth. This time I wanted to use the precious minutes to send my mother Reiki to support her on her journey into perfect health and well-being.

Instead of doing the obvious, which would have been to go outside and sit in the nice patio, I sat in the gym amidst the pinging and ponging of the table tennis balls, the shouting of the players, and the humidity of their sweat. I realized this when I had already started, so I didn't want to stop at that moment. I simply focussed on my mom and blurred out everything else. Maybe it was due to the macros we took right before we drove to the gym, but I had this insight, that our mind is not so much different from a macro lense. If we want to focus on something we can blurr out all the rest. And then a environment of unpleasant debris can function as a very becoming backdrop.

Letting go of resistance

In the teachings of Abraham they describe the priciples of the Law Of Attraction as follows: Step One: We experience contrast which makes us know what we want instead. Step Two: The Universe answers and puts the desired object, feeling, person, experience, or what have you in our "Vibrational Escrow". Step Three: If we let go of resistance thus exercise allowance, the things we want will manifest in our experience.

Lately I felt challenged with a lot of things and thus my level of resistance might have risen a bit. Although I kept doing all my mental exercises, I felt I could do with some relief. Two wonderful friends have told me about taking yoga-massages. I had never heard of it before and got curious. I found a non-medical practitioner on the internet who offers this service in my home town. So I made an appointment.

When I got there yesterday I immediately felt that this was the perfect decision. I trusted this woman spontaneously and felt very much at home and safe. The practice was friendly and painted in a warm orange that even matched my shoes. LOL So I guess one could say it was a vibrational match.

While I was lying there with my feet beeing wiggled, my legs being stretched, my muscles being kneaded, it occurred to me that this was the perfect physical exercise in letting go of resistance. It was so comforting to pass on the control of my limbs to someone who would take good care of them. I felt my resistance melting like ice.

I didn't expect to reap any manifestations, my sole intention was to feel better. In the Abraham teachings they also tell us not to take score of the manifestation, but rather concentrate on the improved vibration. And I felt like a newborn baby. You can imagine my surprise when I switched my phone out of silent mode after the session and dicovered a text that informed me about an article, which I had ordered about a year ago, which had been delivered but not the way I wanted it, and then sent back with the prospect of waiting indefinitely. Now it is waiting for me to pick it up.

But that wasn't the only thing that happened. This morning I rediscovered some money, I had put in a box before I went on my journey to "Merryland". I didn't want to travel with all that cash on me and when I placed it in that little box I caught myself thinking "Will I ever remember this?" So naturally I forgot - until this morning. So in a way I myself had put it into my vibrational escrow. ;-))

There's not question about it: I will make an appointment for another yoga massage!

A Surprising Side Effect

This weekend I visited my mom in the hospital and gave her the necklace. She liked it a lot and was touched by the fact that it was handcrafted especially for her. This was very likely to happen but there was also a miraculous side effect, that I hadn't intended at all and that might not have come to pass if I had tried to force it.

When my mom held the necklace she started imagining, which of her clothes would be suitable to wear it with. She travelled out of the hospital room into a future in which she would be healthy again. In the Abraham teachings they always say, we should tell the story not as it is but as we want it to be and thus shift our vibration enough that it would match the desired outcome. Only then we can receive what we have asked for. In that moment, my mother's focus wasn't set on pains and itches but on her well being.

I had made this accessory on an impulse, believing that it would shift my vibration to one of hope and confidence. Whether my vibration was transferred to hers, or she was positive enough to focus on the good outcome all by herself doesn't matter. The necklace represented a perfect excuse to focus on well being. It might be a good reminder to readjust the focus whenever it goes astray. I hope she will be able to keep blurring the hospital reality in favor of the flowers and the beauty of life that are always present.
