How do you buy gifts?:)

[Tara]

Hey

I wanted to ask how do you buy gifts for your loved ones?

Do you do any practice to align with a perfect gift ideas?

I am sometimes inspired, but sometimes I have no ideas but birthdays, occasions are coming and of course I want to get sth meaningful to people. I wonder is there any AH process that you practice for this type of manifestation?;)

I never heard of a specific "gift"-process ... but I guess, being aware and awake, and asking the Universe for Inspiration are Abe-teaching, yes?

I have, in my "notices" on my phone, a list of ideas for certain presents that I get over the year, for the different people.
This ideas come when we talk together, when someone mentions something. I just write it down, and I always have it with me. It is fun to have such a list, and to go through it when a date comes up!

Also, when a birthday etc gets close and I still have no clue yet, I deliberately ask for an inspiration. It normally comes not later than the next day. Or I open Amazon (or any other online store), open to stumble across the perfect thing.

Per example, my son in law helped us mightily the last month. Normally we don't exchange birthday-presents, but they also gave me a whole box of flower-plants for mothers day, and planted them!!

So, I really feel the desire to give him a birthday-present, this time. It was 11PM in the night, when I pondered that, and suddenly it slipped into my mind, that I had seen a pretty big discount in my emails from a shop that prints fotos (as family-pictures) on big size-canvas. We did that for my daughters family 3 years ago and they LOVED it. But in the meantime, another baby got born, and I had heard my SIL mention how he would love if this child would be on the big print as well! I had not even written it down in my phone, it just popped up in my head.

Looking up a new family-picture of them and ordering it was done just before 12PM- where the discount closed! And it will be delivered 3 days before his birthday...

I LOVE when I literally witness how the "angels" (that's how I call my guides) work extra-shifts to make me aware, when things line up perfectly!

11pm an idea was born and by 12am it was done! Elke you work so fast!
I love the synchronous timing of the discount! I have a feeling your SIL will love the canvas!

I find the more time I spend with someone, the easier it is to tune into their vibration, and to pick up on their desires (usually because they will mention them at some point, or will complain about the other end of the stick so it will give you hints to what they DO want, if you spend enough time with them!)

With people I spend less time with, it's a little trickier unless they're very vocal about their desires or on their dislikes (which again can hint at their likes). For such people, perhaps Abraham's advice of "going general" is one way to go (eg flowers, chocolates etc). Or if you want to get more personal and specific, perhaps it will require sitting down with them for a good talk to uncover more of their desires

Thank you for sharing! POE I love the idea of taking the notes throughout the year! It’s amazing idea for me for Xmas

I also normally take mental notes when they are available one time I even dreamt a present for my godson and gave to him and even if I don’t see him daily, it was a perfect gift for him and in-line with this 3 year old interest (actually with him I have connected and have something really exciting 3 times in a row I think my uncle (his passed away grandfather is of help here) and maybe because of his age I don’t bother too much …

But sometimes I don’t have these mental notes, dreams and then I “try” to think of sth special for someone who is really special and I care a lot, I guess I’m trying too hard… so it does not always work out

So I’m thinking how to unstuck when I’m in this mental field and let the ideas come when I want them deliberately to come like focus wheel or stuff

Your ideas feel so considerate and loving! FEELING them out, yes?

Gift-giving is like an adventure, right? I love it so much. IT TAKES ALIGNMENT!! Thank you for making me see this, deliberately!
You inspired me to FEEL how I do it, and the thing works best when I am totally relaxed and expectant of finding the right thing. Duh.

I love how your question sent me so much more into awareness on this topic!

I personally prefer to give gift-cards or vouchers or just straight up money because it gives freedom to the receiver to choose whatever they want!
But I do myself enjoy well-thought gifts as well.

I think if you ask Abe, they would say keep an image of the receiver being happy and then follow inspired action.

Yes, there are several old friends. When you look through the stories of "Tell about yourself"- subforum, you'll find them. Or, you write a post there, yourself!
