Ventures Into Love : Day 17

You know that awesome tingly 'I have so got this! Things are going to rock from here on!' feeling that blossoms in your gut when you take up something new, start out on a new journey and the likes?

For example, the first day of a new exercise routine, or the beginning of a new hobby… the beginning of a new job, the first great conversation with a nice person we really like, the start of a new self – help book…
Any beginning by choice and passion is a cause for joy and I think I speak for everyone when I say that.
Have you also noticed how that this feeling is confined to the beginning only, in many scenarios in life?
I'll go with an example from my own life..
Whenever I read an awesome saucy 'self help' book, I feel psyched out and buzz – filled! I write down my dreams and I take the steps happily, genuinely excited about the changes I am helping bring about…
Then comes the second stage… that stage where the previously lovely ideas and wishes and hopes start feeling like desperate needs and wants. The present situation I live in starts to appear gloomy and black. I then start to push and prod; I run around trying this and that, despairing the possibility of staying where I am; I try to fix this, I try that out… finally, I burn out and crash and stop.

And I feel this incredible peace with the present. The dreams look like sour grapes and I give up on them happily.
Until the next cycle begins.

Too often, when we start out on life transformations, we get hooked on to this idea that where we are is less and where we want to go is more. What we are now is not enough and where we want to go will complete us, filling the gaps, blah blah blah…
And when we are told that here and now is where we should be in every moment, we think that we have to settle for less, contain our desires and let go of our dreams.
It’s always black and white with us. We either push and pull, making it happen, doing it now

Or
We stop and hibernate. We go into a slumber, letting the anthill build up around and over us.

….
And I think I speak for everyone when I say that neither feels good. Which is why most of us oscillate between these two polar states again and again.

…..
What if I say a few things that might sound outrageous but you believe me anyway?
What if where you are right now is exactly where you should be to go where you most want to be? (One of my all time favourite Mike Dooley words..)

What if everything is happening so perfectly for you, that you will inevitably take the right steps, go in the right direction and shimmy at the right time?
What if success was inevitable?
What if every battle lost is a prep step for winning the war?
What if your subconscious never really forgot that there is only one Force and that is of Love?
What if your mind's numerous suggestions are exactly in line with the greatness that is You?
What if the very fact that you are dreaming about what you are dreaming is proof enough that you will receive in the most exciting endlessly abundant ways?
What if the chaos you feel in your life right now is a sign that great awesome perfectly extraordinary change is right around the corner? ( This is very intuitive if you ask me. Think about the last time you cleaned house and you will get what I am talking about)
What if, right now, a million beings in the unseen surround you with love and respect and admiration ?
What if you are already what you dream of being and your challenges and journeys are meant to show you who you already are – perfect, magnificent and a wonder?
….
Don’t look at your past failures for the answer. Your endless analysis of your failures are never going to give you the real answers that you seek.
Look within, look at your successes, look at all that you have already done…
This is what today’s activity is all about.
Acknowledge all your past achievements and successes. Be grateful for what you have already accomplished.
And within that list of things, sprinkle in a few of your present dreams as if they already exist.
It’s all a grand game, after all.
And when you allow yourself to acknowledge your true power, in the flesh,with proof of all that you have already manifested in your life, your confidence will soar.
You will start seeing your own self in a different light and the transformation you seek will step itself up into an all new level..

So lets play, shall we?

Magic Money

Hiya!!!! MAGIC MONEY DAY, BABY!WOOHOO!!! Today is MONEY DAY! And no, I am not giving out free money( heehee...free money...😂😂😂..get it?).It means, I get to travel down memory lane, thanking all the instances that money came to me. Kind of hard to do this without help ( that is a huge load of memories...) but luckily, Rhonda gives you triggers to visit all those dusty nooks and crannies in your head. This practice is kind of cool because most of our lives revolve around money. But we tend to focus on the ' not having enough money ' part and Rhonda tries to show you the 'Whoa! I seem to have received loads of money in the past" parts of life. Even though this practice is about money’s role in my childhood , it always felt like a chance to pleasantly tread down memory lane. How many times do we visit only the pleasant memories of our childhood, just for the feel of it and not for comparing now vs. then? It is pretty amazing to think that each meal we rec

Day 3!!! Woahhh.....Vanmathi is feeling buoyant today! I guess its the magic keeping me in high spirits. And I haven't even got to today's practices yet! Here we go... Day 3: Gratitude List: 1.I am grateful for the complete lack of mirrors in this house because I can pretend that I look like Gigi Hadid one day and Deepika Padukone, the next day and there is absolutely nothing present to contradict me! 2.I am so so grateful that I have to live in a hostel because it is a party, every time I come home and my sis treats me like a person rather than a fluffy cushion she can sit on. 3.Thank you so much, dear people who travel and take pictures of food ,culture and art and print it in magazines because it is a real treat to eyes like mine that only got to see cadavers in various states of damage. 4.I am grateful for the new pen stand idea that saves me space and also looks quite cool. 5.I am grateful for the clock that is not working because it means I have all t

Magical Health!

I AM FEELING AWESOME! Today's practice was that great! I got to think about so many parts of my body that help me rock the living daylights out of every moment. I cannot believe why we are not doing this more often. Saying thank you, I mean. For instance, my mom was really really tired all day yesterday. I felt so sorry for her because she was draping herself across any plain surface she could find. She kicked tiredness in the derriere today and did a gratitude practice. And so, I woke up to a face filled with glee. She has been like a caffeinated chipmunk all day; it's tiring just to watch her bounce around. I did some gratitude too and though I don't feel like it brought out my inner chipmunk, I am definitely feeling calmer, peaceful and beautiful. One of the organs I thanked was my brain; After all, it is my brain that is perceiving and experiencing and making me think and  feel the way I think and feel about life. Which reminded me of this quote I recently
