Lesson 311: There is Always Another Desire...

There is always something.. another desire, another distraction, another thing to manifest. What would happen if we detached from having to control situations or attract things into our lives. What if we just surrendered to what the Divine gives us without having to ask for it at all? This creates space and allows us to be open. This essentially creates freedom. Today we are to forget what we are trying to create. We are to ask ourselves “what would you enjoy the most?” in the next hour and next few hours or even later today.

My Wednesday consisted of working a half day and having lunch with a friend, picking up mail, buying some earrings for myself and a friend, buying a spray to curb my cat’s anxiety, having a nap and then going to a movie with another friend. This all occurred before reading the lesson of the day. I wasn’t in a mood for creating. I definitely just let the day go on.  What it actually manifested was me walking past a place called “the music gym” which offers guitar, piano and singing lessons. I’ve been wanting to take singing lessons for some time and this place is right near my home. I felt like everything I did, whilst surrendering, led me to walk past this shop. I was just wanting to have a relaxed day with no pressure and something appeared on my path that I didn’t expect.

I think sometimes when you aren’t really thinking about something, but it’s been lingering in the back of your mind, the Universe just somehow manifests it for you. There’s a unique beauty in that.

What did you create without actually manifesting it?

Lesson 311: Forgiving is Clearing

Every lesson in this course has been building your heart muscle. Slow drip practices in letting go and self-care is a form of forgiveness.
Every time you courageously face your fears, allow yourself to be vulnerable, or feel whatever you are feeling without judging it as good or bad, you are forgiving.

This is powerful stuff.
— Stephanie Bennett Vogt

Today we are to think about forgiving a situation or a person. We all have this power to forgive yes. But definitely in our own time.

I am going to forgive the situation in regards to my redundancy at work. There is all this anger around it and morale is low. I know I had to ride the waves of emotion that I was going through but there is no point holding onto it. I am going to accept that it’s part of the business, that it was outside of my control and that in order to move forward, I just need to keep a positive attitude and do everything in my power to land myself another role. I closed my eyes and just meditated for a moment. What I visualised was myself being bright and that a light is being shone on me, so that I’m noticeable when it comes to interviews. I forgive the situation and accept that it is what it is. I truly have no control over it and can only place myself in a good space moving forward. There is no point being angry anymore – it really doesn’t help in any way. It’s time to be my best for myself and to shine a path for others. It’s time to keep shining my light.
