Re: My struggles with binge eating and other subjects
Hello dear co-creators, I have a question about visualization. I am currently reading the book 'Money and the Law of Attraction' and have noticed that Abraham has suggested twice to visualize your dream life for 15 minutes every day. I wanted to ask if you do this and if it is still current in the latest teachings of Abraham. Because whenever I have read more current things from Abraham, they talked more about going into the vortex or simply getting onto a high-flying disc. I wanted to ask if visualizing or this 15-minute visualization is still current or if visualizing no longer plays such a big role in their teachings.
Thank you and i wish you all a wonderful weekend, Winter is coming

Re: My struggles with binge eating and other subjects
I haven't heard the very last WS's, but from listening to them since 2010 I know that they have a rhythm in what they focus upon in their teaching. Sometimes, it is absolutely general, and sometimes very specific. Together, it makes a balance. But people hate that Abe don't get their story straight! But it REALLY is both necessary and right. Imo, their "one sentence" ALWAYS applies: "Get happy, in any way you can." So that means, have an ear to the ground, what YOU, HERE and NOW prefer most. And again, sometimes that is doing things in extremely specific ways, and sometimes it is floating along, being "lazy" and letting go and letting God.FloatingBoat wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 7:51 pm 20241122_204017.jpg20241122_204118.jpg
My new Abraham books have arrived, and I am so excited. I opened this page, and I find it so fitting and beautiful.

What calls YOU? NOW?
As I realized by Simons story, I, too, can't really visualize.
According to Simon this stance is called "Aphantasia" and *I* was never able to follow this Abe-suggestion that you mention! Before I heard of this Aphantasia-condition, I always was somewhat ashamed that I would do things "wrong". But I already had found a substitute for it, that I love incredibly: to pull together wonderfully moody pictures and quotes, or actual photos that describe my desires, and create mood-charts or collages from them, and they serve me so well. Doing the creation of them, and the pulling-together to begin with, makes me feel elation. And sometimes, I don't want to be so specific at all, but I yearn to solely relax into trust and ease, bake cookies and read good novels.
It is ALL good. Do what you like and enjoy most, in the very moment!

It makes total sense: The phrase "Get happy, in any way you can" is equivalent to "Go into the vortex."
I believe every person has different ways and methods to put this phrase into practice. Sometimes I notice that I enjoy visualizing and writing scripts. On other days, I let myself go with the flow and focus more on appreciation. When I’m feeling down, I watch beautiful movies or start a focus block. In everyday life, it always helps me to know: I can choose a thought that feels better than the one I currently have. Lately, I’ve often noticed how I’m guided by signs and impulses from my inner being. I believe this shows that I am currently in a high vibrational state.
What always helps me when I’m outside is the intention to find things I find beautiful and can appreciate – whether it’s houses, certain people, nature, good experiences with others, or a punctual train. Intending something beforehand and then collecting the "gifts" is simply the best.
It’s wonderful that you’ve found a way to experience these uplifting feelings in your life, for example, by assembling images. Whenever I read your expressions of appreciation, I also feel a sense of lightness, trust, and security.
Relaxing, baking cookies, and reading good novels might be just the right thing for this beautiful winter season.

I really think that this very basic and general advice "get happy in any way you can" is THE answer -as we all are so very different and in different circumstances with very different desires and Vortexes.
Having said this, I lately was thrilled by (and transcribed) this segment:
Don't get limp! Don't get overboard with "chilling out"!
Instead, explore the delightful path of specifically and deliberately CREATING what you desire. And only soothe yourself in overwhelmed, tense times with the much less passionate "letting go and letting God"
HS:
I know that I've got huge amounts of great things stacked up around the door (Abe: yes!) and I've been working with the tapes for about 10 years and so I know that I'm not allowing all that I could, so I'm...
Abe:
Well, it helps to know that you never get it done. In other words, there'll always be more and more and more!
But we can feel- and it is... we're playing with you in the way, (...) what we've been talking here today: We talk about this all the time! About how your life experience causes you to ask. And that the Universe hears it, and lines it up for you. And sometimes our physical friends have this confusion- in fact, it came up a few times today, about
"Well, which is it? Abraham, am I the deliberate creator of my experience?
Or shall I just let go and let God?
Am I the creator of my experience or do I just pet my cat, and relax and allow?"
...And you heard us say to our friend just now, that everything is lined up. And that you're really wanting to work on letting it in! And while we want you, all of you, to focus more on reducing resistance- because, as you said so clearly, you have got enough lined up for 20 or 30 lifetimes, and so the work really is in finding the... finding more ways to be less resistant. Or more allowing, in order to let in what you are wanting. There is nothing more delicious than to be specifically focused upon specific things, that you are wanting, while you are letting it in! And we think that this is most what you're wanting to hear from us. And we'll be very clear about this, it will benefit all of you!
So for example. To say "I saw a new car, and I love the idea of it. And it costs a lot of money, but it feels good just to think about being in it. And whatever will be will be. And so, the universe knows I want the car, and I've wanted it for a long time. And now I'm just not going to think about it anymore! Because the universe has got that handled."
-That's one way of approaching it.
And if you were really feeling negative about the car, that's the way we would encourage you to approach it.
But we think that it is ever so much more Hands-On, and delicious deliberate creating, to think about the car, to pretend you're in the car, to talk about the color of the car, to smell the leather of the car, to pretend you're in the car, to imagine being in the car, to go test drive the car, to look at the car, to think about driving the car, to imagine having the car in your garage, even to making a place for the car! To telling other people about the car... in other words, we think that
...the more specifically involved you get energetically with the car, the more satisfying the unfolding of the car can can be!
Unless you have convinced yourself that you don't get what you want. And we can sort of feel that from you!
We can feel that from a lot of you! -Where you have sort of shied away from getting too specific, for very long, about the things that you want, because you get tired of wanting things that don't come. And so, you don't let yourself focus upon them very much. And the result of that is, you sort of feel limp.
Where what we really want you to do, is to get into this sort of cocky, arrogant attitude where you begin to believe that the universe will give you anything, and everything that you want, and see yourself as the Maestro that is directing the energy toward the specifics of things!
And you want to start with things that you already believe. That you can achieve, because, lining up that energy light will give you instant manifestations on some things. And then, every day, just add more to your list, and add more to your list, and add more to your list! we can feel that you understand very clearly the principles that we have been expressing, for a very long period of time. And we do not feel a big disconnect within you, about worthiness! In other words, we don't feel that you're deliberately holding yourself apart from things.
But we can feel not just with you, but with a lot of, a LOT of our physical friends, that you've stopped being very deliberate about things! Because you are feeling the discomfort. You're tired of feeling the discord of wanting things, that don't come easily. And so you decided, that you would sort of just take another tact in it. And you got really heavy on allowing, now. This is really a great deal of fun for us, because as we begin to interact with our physical friends, and we talk about the science of deliberate creation- many of you get very clear:
-You start thinking about what you want.
-You start setting goals, and you start sucking in the thoughts that don't match to what you're wanting.
-You worry about talking negatively!
-You're afraid that the universe will take off with you, on something that you don't want.
-And so, you get very... sort of, worried about directing your thoughts at all times.
And then, we notice that in your attempt to be deliberate creators, that you are not relaxed and allowing as much.
So, then we began emphasizing the "Art" of Allowing. We begin saying to you that- yes of course, it's important that you want things! And it's nice to set those goals. And it's nice to write it down what you are wanting.
But the universe already knows what you want!
The universe heard you the first 100,000 times, that you said that you wanted it!!
And it's already lined up for you now!
Your work is to relax and let in.
What you've been saying- you want... you've gone overboard, on relaxing and letting in!
In other words, in the same way that we began expressing the "Art" of Allowing, in order to calm people who were very analytic, who were focused very specifically on what they'r wanting- now we' sort of like to get you focused more upon your goals. And we think that now, this time when you do it, we think it will go very well for you!
-Because you've done enough relaxing.
-You've come into alignment with who you are!
-You're beginning to expect good things to come for you, you have evidence of that.
-You have knowledge of the law of attraction!
-You don't misunderstand the correlation between what you're thinking, and what you're feeling, and what you're getting.
-You're beginning to understand, that the Universe is always consistent.
And we think, that even though you have launched desires and the Universe knows what they are, that a little bit of attention to what you are wanting, would net you some big results right away.

It is truly very inspiring. I am experiencing exactly the same thing at the moment. When I am at a low energy level, it simply feels good to calm down, let go, trust the universe, and make sure I find the easiest ways to feel good. And when I am at a high energy level again, I have the urge to visualize, write stories, imagine my wishes, embark on an exhilarating high, and dive into the details. This interplay that Abraham suggests is simply wonderful and inspiring. It makes everything so much clearer regarding what I have been thinking about lately in terms of manifestations. Thank you so much, you wonderful being.
