Do you ever feel absolutely STUCK in your life? Rather than an abundance of money, health, functional relationships, and a job that lights your inner pilot light every morning, all you seem to feel is that the Universe MUST have erased your name and address in ITS iPAD. You feel utterly forgotten and lost. Sound familiar?! If it does, I assure you that you are not alone! In fact, there have been a number of times in my Journey when I felt like The Universe was Santa Clause and I MUST have been put on the naughty list. Aye Dios Mio!?!
However, now when I feel out of alignment and blocked from SOURCE energy, I ‘check in’ with myself to make sure I AM in a state of ALLOWING. Rather than the opposite state which is basically another way of saying you are GETTING IN YOUR OWN WAY. And in the process actually blocking the very abundance you so desire from manifesting into your experience. This can happen for a number of different reasons and life circumstances. Our lives are so filled with stress and TO DO lists that it can cause our thoughts and beliefs to become completely out of alignment with our actions. And what do you think that brings us........ CHAOS with a side of frustration and two helpings of pain and suffering! For what you ALLOW, is what will continue to show up. And this is when your dreams become homeless...........
But what exactly is involved in ‘The Art of Allowing?’ Simply put, it is the practice of aligning what you think, believe, say, and do with congruent energy. For example, how many times have you heard a friend repeatedly tell you how badly they desire to be in a relationship? Yet, in nearly the same breathe they make declarations such as “There are no good men/women left out there!”, or even worse, “I'll never find the right one.” And that is just what they are saying! Can you imagine what their actual thoughts and beliefs about the situation might be. FRIGHTENING!
For the most part, your external circumstances are a direct reflection of your inner reality. How you feel inside and what you think and believe about those feelings attract similar energy into your life experience. Now I said FOR THE MOST PART. I do not believe that when natural disasters strike or for every horrible accident that occurs, it is our FAULT. We don't live in a vacuum. And sometimes things show up on our doorstep that are NOT of our causing. That is also why it is SO very important to be in alignment so that which you DO have control over can be done so with deliberate intent.
An absolutely enlightening book on this very topic is ‘The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent’ by Esther and Jerry Hicks. Within it, they state, “For any desire to be realized by you, or before anything can manifest into your life experience, there must be vibrational compatibility between your desires and beliefs.” For example, if you are sending out resumes to land a new job, all the while BELIEVING that you are never going to get a great job again, you are not in ALLOWANCE of the very thing you desire. In fact, you are actually blocking it from coming into your life.
Another terrific example of NOT being in ALLOWANCE is through the use of social media. Be honest, how often do you peruse the Facebook pages of your ex-boyfriend/girlfriend, gazing at pictures of their new relationship and how they have managed to go on without you in their life. All while cursing the Universe because YOU are still single! Sound familiar?! I bet for many of you it does! Can you see how such behavior is actually BLOCKING what you desire rather than ALLOWING it to flow into your life. If you are still having trouble understanding, remember this: ENERGY FLOWS WHERE YOUR ATTENTION GOES!
I love the term, also from ‘The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent’, your Emotional Guidance System. This philosophy has had a major impact in my life. The book defines it as “Your awareness of the vibrational variance between what you are vibrationally offering in this moment and the vibrational offering of your Inner Being is literally your Emotionally Guidance System.” In plain English, they are describing the importance of balancing your energy. BEING aware that what you think, what you actually believe about your thoughts, and what you speak about them to others need to be in alignment. For when they are, you are in a state of ALLOWING. As the book eloquently states in this passage, “From your state of balanced energy, you experience clarity, vitality, eagerness, physical wellness, abundance in all things you consider good, and an exuberant state of joy. This is the natural state of Who You really Are.” Yes, please!!!
For even more examples of how to incorporate the Art of Allowing into your daily practice, I highly recommend picking up a copy of “The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent.” Once you truly learn how you FEEL when you are in alignment with SOURCE energy, you can maintain that level more often than not. And from my personal experience, in this state, life becomes the magical experience of daily BLISS it was always meant to be!
