YOFA jhe Sessions Q&A

The YOFA jhe Sessions are remote Inner Alignment sessions.  Here is a question I received after one of the sessions.

Question:

how did you do it?

I am feeling great right now! but my only problem with this is that i didn’t do it:/ Which means that i need an outside source to make me feel great. Or am i missing the point? Could you direct me to a better understanding of these sessions? I know that i have gotten these feeling without help before but……I don’t know….help?

Here is my audio answer:

Inner Peace Regardless of Circumstances

om

Scroll Down to Listen to this Post

It’s easy to be peaceful when the sun is shining, the butterflies are fluttering, and the birds are singing.

A peaceful day, a peaceful feeling.

But when you can remain inwardly peaceful even as your world is rocked by challenges, you become a true liver of life.

We can all begin to cultivate this unrockable peace in small ways. These incremental contributions to our energetic stability add up and in time we become well established in peace.

[mc id=”460″ type=”audio”]Inner Peace Regardless of Circumstances-Quick Tips for Manifesting Your Heart’s Desire: Bite Sized Applications of Law of Attraction[/mc]

And while it may seem nearly impossible to reach that pure state of peace that has many names in many languages, we don’t have to make that huge leap all at once.   We can take small, deliberate, steps.

And the notion of a small expansion of peace within us seems quite doable.  There are no obstacles to taking a small step.  And these easy, small steps toward inner peace combine to create a state of profound aliveness.

Many people feel turmoil and try to attain inner peace by calming down the inner noise.

We will approach this differently.

Rather than addressing the upset and trying to get it to conform to peace, we will address the peace.

By looking for the peace that inherently lives within you, you set a wave in motion.  You engage Law of Attraction on the subject of inner peace and you eventually find the seed of peace that lives within you.  And then it grows and blossoms.

Here is a contemplative meditation that I recommend to begin this process:

Sit upright with eyes open or closed.  Ask yourself silently, “Where is the peace at the center of me?”

Then sit and let your awareness explore the dimensions of consciousness that you are.  Let yourself discover the seed of peace within you.

This is a profound beginning.

Happy New Year my friends.

I want to talk to you today about all those very powerful desires that you may be formulating right now.

(Scroll down to listen.)

[mc id=”443″ type=”audio”]Quick Tips for Manifesting Your Heart’s Desire: Bite Sized Applications of Law of Attraction – Abraham-Hicks Study Group: The Vortex – Happy New Year![/mc]

Are you creating a list of resolutions, goals or intentions for the New Year?  I love doing that because this shifting of the calendar gives us an amplified feeling of a clean slate.  And a clean slate brings with it a feeling that anything is possible.  So we feel empowered as we look at desires that we may even have become very frustrated about in the past.  And now, with the New Year we have a renewed sense of possibility.  A rising of a feeling of empowerment and freedom to live the life your heart desires.

I was just listening to an Abraham CD and I want to share with you a perspective that dovetails perfectly with this energy of the New Year.

“When we speak of your past present and future, we acknowledge that during your past and even your present you are launching vibrational requests forward into your vibrational reality… What you call your future manifested reality is what we see as your present vibrational reality.”

From the teachings of Abraham www.abraham-hicks.com

And so as we celebrate this landmark in time, and we look at the past year as the past and the new year as the future and we see our desires and goals as incomplete in the now and hopefully fulfilled in the future, we are not taking the Vortex into account.

My suggestion to you as you engage in this fun ritual of prepaving the New Year is to include your awareness of The Vortex. It’s really just a simple flip of a switch.

Instead of seeing the items on your list as things you want to manifest as future realities, acknowledge them as your present vibrational reality.

Then you can resolve all your resolutions into one simple aim:  to be become a vibrational match to the you who lives in your Vortex.

Happy 2010!

With Love,
Rebbie

This is a distilled message.

I’ve boiled down pages of info into just a couple of key ideas.

You see, I’ve got colleagues who are continually producing powerful tools for all of us to find more joy in the journey.  I love sharing these with you and I totally love getting your emails saying how great each new offering is as you partake in both the free and paid versions of all these launches and promotions.

On the other hand, I know that these promotional emails can be overwhelming.

On top of that, these launches seem to come in waves.  So you may notice you don’t get many of these emails from me for a while, then you get a whole bunch.

So, in an effort to give you the most value with the least words, here is my distilled message for today:



Law of Attraction and Affirmations (Start Manifesting with More Ease)

Reach Into the Bag of Your Life Experience and Pull Out Money

You have money that you don’t know you have. 

It is hiding in your life experience.  I want you to learn how to extract the money that is woven into your past journey and not only bring it forward in your life, but help others in the process.

I want you to prosper.  And I have a feeling I know a way that you can make money that you have not thought about.  Or if you did think about it, you didn’t know how to get started. 

Here is what I recommend:

Find something you know about and love, maybe a hobby,  a talent, a passion.  And then what?  Teach others.  Knowledge that you take for granted is like gold to those who are seeking it.  And they will pay you to stay home, and teach them over the phone.  How do you do it?  Find out here

Abraham-Hicks Study Group: The Vortex – Rampage of Appreciation

 

I Can Always Enter My Vibrational Vortex of Creation… The key to getting inside your Vibrational Vortex of Creation; of experiencing the absolute absence of resistance; of achieving complete alignment with all that you have become and all that you desire, and of bringing to your physical experience everything that you desire – is being in the state of appreciation – and there is no more important object of attention to which you must flow your appreciation than that of self. — Abraham Excerpted from Abraham’s newest book, The Vortex, Where the Law of Attraction Assembles All Cooperative Relationships

Even the slightest shift toward appreciation creates a big wave.  I’m always amazed at how a little time spent shifting my vibration on a subject that’s bothering me can completely and instantly alter my experience.  It brings harmony and even fun to stressed relationships.  It eases even the toughest challenges.  It melts problems.

And the fastest way there is by finding things to appreciate.   

What do you appreciate today?

Abraham-Hicks Study Group: The Vortex – Appreciating the Contrast – Part 2

Appreciating the contrast – That’s where we left off.

Let’s pick it up right there. 

I invite you to take a look at The Vortex, page 4, paragraphs 3 & 4.

Abraham is telling us that contrast is really variety.  So there we are.  We look around and we see things that are wanted and things that are unwanted.  Usually, the next thing we do is get focused on eliminating the unwanted thing.  Do you see that that comes form a place of disempowerment?  Now, we can start to see that same unwanted thing as merely a choice that we don’t take. And then we can get going on the joyful focus on (and creation of) what is wanted.

When we see the contrast as variety, and when we understand that we choose with our attention, we start to step more fully into freedom.

"…all choices are made by giving attention to something." Page 4 The Vortex

That means that every time we pay attention to something unwanted, we are choosing it.

Well, if you didn’t understand about Law of Attraction, that might seem like an outrageous statement.  But when you know that your thoughts are always attracting more thoughts that are like it, and when you understand that thoughts come together to form lived realities, it all starts to make sense.

So let’s put this together with the last focus.

  • We came in with the intention to enjoy every moment.
  • When we lose touch with that enjoyment, it is a sign that we have forgotten who we are.  (And some of you have acknowledged that by simply observing that, you are able to tap back into an awareness of your innate empowerment and freedom – Thank you for your comments).

Now we are going one step further.  Now we see that your power is in your ability to deliberately place your attention.  This is how you make your choices.  It is elegantly simple. And not only that, but:

  • You are the only one who can do it (deliberately place your attention). 
  • It costs nothing to do it (to choose your focus). 
  • It can completely transform your life (deliberately placing your attention).

Negative Emotion

So, picking up from last time, when you find yourself upset about something, resistant, negatively focused, call it whatever you like, basically, when you are experiencing negative emotion in reaction to a person, a situation, a condition, now you realize that you are feeling powerless.  That’s what feels so bad. Feeling powerless feels bad because it is not who you are.  You feel as though this troublesome person or thing or situation has more power in the unfolding of your life than you do.

Positive Emotion

Now, with this clear revelation, we’re getting a big clue about where your power actually resides.  It is in the simple ability to choose your focus.  To deliberately place your attention. And when your (human) attention is in harmony with the attention of your Inner Being, the result is a feeling of positive emotion. (That is your emotional guidance system.)

Rooted in the Infinite by Rebbie StraubingIn an earlier post I told you that I would occasionally point out where all this talk about The Vortex dovetails with The Yoga of Alignment (YOFA). If you are working with Rooted in the Infinite, you’ll easily see that this deliberate placing of attention is a function of the Z-axis.  You may find places in Rooted… where I talk about ping-pong balls, movie projectors, and a cascade of neutralization.  These are all ways of picturing what’s going on invisibly as you deliberately select your focus.

Try This

Let’s take our last experiment a little further.  When you’ve got something going on that you do not want, first watch your reaction.  Remember that it’s telling you very clearly whether you are looking at the situation from a perspective that is in harmony with your Inner Being or not.

If there is upset with someone, or something, or some group of people, or some condition, look at how you can, right in that moment, change your focus.

This is the beginning of one of the most powerful realizations. Here, our eyes become open to the knowing that can completely transform our lives. This is the shocking realization that it is not the person or the situation that is the real cause of our upset.  And this is good news because if they were really the cause of our problems, we would really be powerless (because we cannot control them).

And  now we find out that it is our own choice of where we put our attention that is the cause of our emotional state. And now we are free because that is the only thing we can control. When you get this, angels sing, flowers bloom, rainbows fill the sky.  It’s quite a moment.

Until the next…

With Love,
Rebbie

In the last focus, I asked you to consider Page 3 para. 3. of The Vortex by Esther and Jerry Hicks (The Teachings of Abraham)

I think I already mentioned we’d be going through this slowly, right?

Good, because now we move on to paragraph 4.

In respect for the copyright of this book, I will be using page and paragraph references most of the time, rather than direct quotes. I know this is less convenient, but while you have the book open, you can also get more context, read the surrounding ideas, and scribble in the margins to your heart’s content.

Enjoyment

Ok, so last time we pondered the notion of going from enjoyment to enjoyment. We considered the idea of having set a pre-birth intention to enjoy every moment.

Now let’s go a little further.

Please read the paragraph that begins with, "Before your birth into your physical body…" P3 p4

Contrast

Now, let’s talk a little bit about contrast.  Abraham often asks you if you have "come to appreciate the contrast of your time and place."  Here, on page 3 of The Vortex, we’re finding out that our relationships with each other are the primary source of the contrast we live.  Interesting!  And yet we welcome it (from our non-physical perspective). We love it.  We can’t get enough of it! 

So please consider this:

When you:

·    are harmonized with your broader knowing
·    feel empowered
·    don’t feel like a victim of the contrast you are living

. . . you welcome the contrast.  You perceive the contrast as the birthplace of your expansion and your potential for joy.

Then, all these relationships that run hot and cold, with their highs and lows, and all the contrast we find with the people in our lives, it all becomes the raw material of joy. 

So, now it is apparent that the idea of setting a pre-birth intention of enjoying every moment has infinite potential.  But maybe not the way we thought at first.

Where we might have originally read that statement of an intention for continuous enjoyment and interpreted it to mean that life would be a series of enjoyable, pleasurable moments, we now see a completely different picture emerging. 

And what a relief! 

Because, if the fulfillment of our intention for enjoyment were dependent on conditions, we’d be in big trouble, fast.

Empowerment

But what a breath of fresh air it is to know that the contrast is welcome – that our enjoyment of the moment is not conditional – that we are in charge of our state, regardless of conditions.  Whew!  This is good news.

Well, maybe it’s not news to you.  Maybe you’ve gone to seminars and read books and you’ve held this conscious idea for many years.  (Me too.) Good.  Now we can all deepen our living of this knowing, no matter what our relationship to this truth is at this moment – whether it’s old news or new news.

Try This

So here is a little game you can play.  When you’ve got something going on that you do not want, watch your reaction.  It will tell you very clearly whether you are looking at the situation from a perspective that is in harmony with your Inner Being or not.

If there is upset with someone or something or some group of people, or some condition, all that means is that the feeling is one of disempowerment.  In that moment there is a feeling of being a victim.   At this point, so early in our journey together, let’s feel the empowerment of simply noticing these moments as they happen. 

More to come…

With Love,
Rebbie

The comments (your comments) on this blog are the heart of this discussion.  I’ve been enjoying sensing the high level of involvement in the book and the authenticity of the offerings of all of you who are part of this study group.

And so, of course I want to encourage the flow of your sharing as part of the joyful journey into, and back into, and back into The Vortex.

Here is a technical tuning I want to highlight today.

I received this email which told me that some clarification would be useful:

Hi Rebbie,
Thanks for starting the Votex group -love it!  Just some quick feedback – when i came to post my comment, I could only find one area to comment.  In a previous email, I thought you had created a section where we could share under different topics such as AHA, process etc, but i could only find a place to comment under the daily blog.  Maybe it’s hard to set up, but that would make it easier to keep all comments about the same topics in one place.
 
Thank you again for creating this gigantic flow of positive transformative energy xxx

It’s true, there is only one place to comment.  I was suggesting that you could make the first line of your comment a category if you like. That way readers can organize their reading of the comments in a way that suits their mood. Here were the suggested categories:

  • Question – This will be helpful to me so that I can scan through and get to questions as quickly as possible.
  • Aha – Good for sudden realizations.
  • Sharing – How it is working in your life.
  • Pondering – Think out "loud" as you process

Feel free to create your own category or to not use any.

With Love,
Rebbie

PS – I just left a comment on this post as an example.

How different would your life look if you went from enjoyment to enjoyment?

Listen to today’s focus here:

[mc src=”http://blogaudio.s3.amazonaws.com/vortex/yofa-vortex-sg-p3.mp3″/]

 Today’s focus may surprise you with its simplicity.  And yet it is at the basis of everything we are about to do. (Can you see how this is a hint about your Inner Guidance System?)

And have you been reading the comments? They are uplifting and filled with light and wisdom. Your "word snapshots" of your process carry us all forward. Thank you for such beautiful participation.

Here is a suggestion from Cathy that I want to highlight for those who might not be aware of this: 

I haven’t received my book yet… it’s on backorder from Hay House, but I thought I’d pass this on.  You can subscribe to Abraham-Hicks’ Daily LOA Quote at the link below. The quotes are all from ‘The Vortex,’ I believe. So, in a way I’ve gotten started with my reading.

http://www.abraham-hicks.com/lawofattractionsource/index.php

Yes, right now they are from "The Vortex" and what a great idea, especially for those who are eagerly waiting for the book!

Part One of The Vortex by Esther and Jerry Hicks and Abraham is so concentrated that we could probably devote ourselves to that one section and never run out of juice.

I’d like to go through these mini-chapters with a fine tooth comb. So, I recommend that you read the book at your own pace, and let’s use this first segment of the book as a hub.

Feel free to refer to other parts of the book in your comments if you’ve read ahead.  Think of our study as multidimensional and multi rhythmic.

Here’s what I mean by that:

Your individual reading, focus, and application of the book may run faster and include more specifics, while our study here is slow and deep.  With time, you will see many connections between your own private exploration of this teaching and the conversations we are about to have.

So, let these two run side by side.  Something wonderful is happening here.


Notes:

Abraham-Hicks
I’d like to take a moment here to thank Jerry and Esther and Abraham for their profound influence on my life.  And since you are interested in "The Vortex," I want to encourage you to sign up for their tape programs, read their books, and go to their live workshops.  (You probably already do all that!)

YOFA (The Yoga of Alignment)
I’d also like to take a moment to acknowledge that, since I’ll be leading this group, our focus will no doubt take on a YOFA flavor.  I know some of you are deeply involved in the YOFA process of Inner Alignment while others may never have heard of it before.  As we move through "The Vortex" I’ll be pointing out some of the beautiful dovetailing that occurs. 


Q & A

A couple of people asked if this is a good book to start with if they’re new to the Abraham Teachings .

I answered one of these questions as follows:

I think it’s just fine to jump right in with this book.

If you really want to get one other book as a foundation, I’d get "Ask and it is Given." But really, Abraham is always full and complete in each now so I think you’ll be just fine.

Also, have you heard their intro recordings? You can listen or download for free here:

I invite your input to help the newcomers feel their way through this rich material. How would you answer that question?
