the Power of 10

I've been tweeting about abundance this week and thought I'd blog about one of the fun games I came across (from Catherine Ponder) for working to change your perspective so that you are an attractive force fully open to all that you desire to experience, to all that this magnificent Universe has already lined up for you. Ready yourself to receive the gifts of life by re-wiring your own thinking, expectations, and ideas of just how abundantly things can flow in to your experience.

You can call it the Power of 10, 100, 1000 OR WHATEVER other number you so choose. The object of this little exercise/game is to train yourself into expecting an increase in the good you want to experience. Generally, conditioning has human minds expecting lack, scarcity, and every other insecure expectation you can think of. Well, this little game re-wires that learned tendency if you do it consistently, if you practice it until it becomes your natural go-to thought pattern.

Let's say you want to experience an increased flow of $$ in your experience. You begin to play this game any time money moves in your experience. Whether money is coming in (payday, gift, sale, gig etc.) or going out (gift, bills, purchases etc.) of your experience you engage yourself in a thought-stream that says:

"This [dollar amount i.e. $100] is only a symbol of the infinite wealth available to me. I am so thankful that 10 times this amount or [dollar amount x 10 i.e. $1,000] is right now coming to me quickly and in the most perfect way. I am abundantly blessed."

The trick is to practice this train of thought so that you're not flowing and reinforcing the old thought-habits of insecurity that say "oh but I don't have enough" or "oh but this might not last me until...". You are literally forming new networks of positive and abundant expectation in your brain that simultaneously change the energy you radiate out into your Universe - it will change the very make-up of your being. To experience abundance, you must Be Abundant - meaning you must vibrate your whole being in the resonance/frequency of abundance. Think about it for a second...what do you think someone who already has plenty of what you want to experience is thinking right now? What are their thought-streams or expectations on the subject like? That's the energy realm you want to resonate in.

You can do this exercise on anything you enjoy experiencing in your life. It will train your mind that whatever it is that you enjoy, whatever it is that you're wanting to experience, there's always more of it coming. Always. Abundantly. Endlessly. The Universe is quiet capable of flooring you with just how loved and adored you are in this experience, just how provided for and taken care of you are in this wilderness of magic and make-belief moments. You just have to turn on your thought-valves to receive what's in store.

There are 10 times more gifts coming to you for every gift you've already received or are giving. There are 10 times more gigs coming your way for every gig you have right now. For every sale you make, there are ten times more sales coming. There are 10 times the amount of clients you have right now coming. For every door of opportunity you see open right now, there are 10 times more doors opening quickly and immediately in the most perfect way. For every thing that makes you laugh now, there is so much more coming to make you laugh even more.

Can you feel the power of 10? Have fun with it. You'll end up with stuff like enough scarves to drape every room in a castle.

Abundance of any kind is not imposed upon us from something outside - it is our own state of being made manifest.

Be Abundant to the power of your choosing and experience the effect of your own chosen and practiced state of being. You can!

in Abundance,

Being Open

I've developed an openness I didn't know was possible, one that has me knowing what's at the heart of every face, whether that face is known or unfamiliar. My heart extends in every direction - there is no one person who is more my soul-mate than another. There is no one person who is less my soul-sister or soul-brother than another.

We've trained ourselves to specialize our connections based on the stories we collect. "You mean something to me because I know you" or "well I don't know you so I'm going to close myself off to you" is trained self-preservation at its best. It's a well practiced pattern in the human mind. We're so much more in how connected we are. Every discovery of an-other is a discovery of mySelf. How do you separate Life into "special" and "not special" - how do you hold one face to mean more than another when it is all the face of One Life, the face of Love?

In preserving your separation from everything...from everyone...in your closing yourself off from that person or this person, in your being selective on who you let into your heart, you miss out on experiencing yourSelf from the beauty of another one of Your own angles. It's all You. Every angle, every perspective is your own. Every pair of eyes that look at you and that look for you, are your own. You are Eternity looking at yourself through numberless points of view. There's nothing else.

"From each, Love demands a mystic silence.
What do all seek so earnestly? Tis Love.

Love is the subject of their inmost thoughts,
In Love no longer "Thou" and "I" exist,
For self has passed away in the Beloved.

Now will I draw aside the veil from Love,
And in the temple of mine inmost soul
Behold the Friend, Incomparable Love.
He who would know the secret of both worlds
Will find that the secret of them both is Love."

Be Love. Be All. Be Open.

12/12 and the Magic of Moving On

Over a month ago, I had a dream-vision of coming out of a cushioned house, following a big bear-dog like man on a bicycle (yes, clearly that's logical), climbing up the steps of experience and jumping in to try something new, to do something I've never done before. Upon coming into waking consciousness, I heard the me that I was in that dream say "that was the best three months of my experience." It was a distinct thought I brought into waking consciousness with me, and I felt the real and full enjoyment I felt for having taken on something completely different.

And now, as I sit here staring at the picture in front of me, of a man, a dog and a bear, having just decided to move on from the weekly radio show I've been doing for three months, I smile at yet another envisioned preview and the feeling that it brought along with it to reveal to me of this exact moment a month in advance. What comes through it all is a feeling of appreciating the steps that effortlessly assemble themselves before me and dissolve to make place for something new. I don't like to do anything that doesn't give me a full serving of joy, because when I'm in joy, when I'm coming from a place of joy then that's the space I'm taking and inviting those listening and reading into. For me, it's about energy, it's always about energy.

One of the guests we had said something to the effect that in life, in your moments, you are either under the trampoline banging your head every time you try to leap, or you are on top of the trampoline leaping without bounds on how high you can go. I agree, if something feels like it's too tight of a box, whatever it is, then your being is saying, is telling you that you are ready to spread your wings.

I shift into change when it begins to turtle into my experience. I take steps without hesitation. Openly. Rejoicing. I trust those inner impulses, the petals of my own being pushing themselves out to unfold. I've come to trust the process so much, and I've come to recognize that all these temporary appearances in this magical field we call Life are designed to show us exactly what we're capable of. What are you capable of? Have you ever asked yourself? When I feel that internal shift, I know the steps in front of me are about to re-arrange themselves. And they effortlessly do.

Living is such a beautiful dance of trust and movement.

in so much Love,
♥k.

Coming Clean

Things reveal themselves to me.

At times days in advance, at other times years in advance. I meet people years before I "really" meet them. I notice them before they even begin to appear to play their part in my movie. I can't explain it the way I'm living it or describe how this happens. Images, previews, visions, dreams. It gets so weird sometimes that I look for the real live curtains and cameras that are constructing the play that is my life.

I'm grateful for the Yogi's that showed up, that said things begin to get weird (I'm paraphrasing) when consciousness wakes up from the illusion of this game-world.

Stories upon stories are told of Seers, and as my spontaneous meditative states get deeper and I discover even more that time, space, and every other condition we believe exists in this "physical" reality really isn't there at all, I start holding the handles on my chair a little firmer.

I woke up from sleep tasting a dish my mom makes for me in my mouth. Like really tasting it. I told my mom about it on the phone that day, only to have her tell me that she just made that very dish. With the time difference, I was literally tasting the dish just as my mom was finished making it.

Time and space are such persistent illusions that you can pierce through. If you let yourself. I answer a question before it's even asked and only realize I've done so when the "other" says "how did you know that's what I was going to ask?" The only gap that exists between you and an-"other" is the one you create when you believe that space is real.

There's more and I think I'll make a point to write about them, since I'm not the only one experiencing the malleability of this reality and the magic of what we are...or are not, as the case may be.

Now seems like the right time to let my crazy really hang out all over the place.

in Dreams,
k.

Mom and Dad

Something kept me up last night before I finally dozed off to sleep. I felt a powerful surge of love and appreciation for my mom, my one and only remaining parent, that then turned itself into awe and adoration for both my parents.

Physical distance is an amazing thing. All the ways my mom was pure love to me now shine boldly and brightly. I can feel every ounce of love she has ever extended toward me. I can't say "she's all I have" for life has taught me that I actually have the whole entire Universe. What I can say is that I see more clearer than ever today of how she, in her own perfect and beautiful way, is a shining example of how love expresses itself in and as every human being. A mother's love but mirrors the greatest love of all! And my mother is beautiful and stunning in the way she loves. Her generosity alone, with everyone, floors me to no end. She is endless giving, a gift that keeps on giving, parading around as a playful human being. And she's been an amazing teacher to me of what strength, love, and generosity can look like.

I was blessed with an equally amazing father. He totally walked on water to my eyes. I worshiped him in ways that to this day I have no words for. To my child eyes he was something extraordinary. I spent my evenings tucked under his arm refusing to go to bed, sneaking into my mom and dad's room so I can sleep on the floor on his side of the bed, and waking up early so I could see him before work and have his breakfast with him, just the two of us. And he spoiled me to the core. Sneaking me money even though my mom had said not to, or getting me whatever toy I wanted, when I wanted it, in so many ways, in love, in gifts, in attention, he gave me all of it. He taught me early on the same lesson that I now continue to learn on a Cosmic level...whatever it is that I want, all I have to do is ask, and it's mine!  And I never have to settle in love or anything else for I deserve all of what I ask for and more. Powerful.

My dad died when I was 12. Everyone expected me to fall apart and walked on eggshells around me because of that expectation, but that didn't happen. Instead, a bigger love revealed itself and walked me into all sorts of miracles and continues to do so to this day. I don't know anything about why I'm here or why I came through these amazing beings into this world. What I do know is that each step in my human experience has been a revelation in love. And that revelation began with my parents. My parents and everything that they are is a revealing of love. So today I send out the thanks I can muster up with all of my being and radiate it out to them - my mom in Ottawa, and my dad on the other side of the veil. Thank you for who you are in this moment, and thank you for being who and what you are to me. I love you. Immensely!

in love,
Kid.
