Advice to a HS- a Singer- with Bipolar-Disorder
(What means the label of being bi-polar?
How does strong wanting play into it?- How to deal with strong desires?
Is healing possible for her?
How about taking the medicine?)


HS:
The first question I have is:
If I want to heal myself of bipolar disorder, no matter what. Can I do it? Is it possible, if all the doctors say, I cannot? And, years ago when I got off my medicine... let's say, 7 years ago when I was experimenting and didn't want to accept that I had this label. Um, I ended up in in the hospital many times, and it was very painful. So I guess, my my first question is: Do you believe that I can heal my bipolar disorder?

Abe:
Absolutely!
Talk to us about how it manifests!?

HS:
Um, well, I'm on medicine. So it doesn't get to come out very often.

Abe:
Then, is it an issue?

HS:
That's the second part of my question! I'm doing great on the medicine. So, should I just keep taking my medicine, and... and, what the hell, and live like that?

Abe:
Here's what we would do:

We would continue the medicine, feeling appreciation for the balance that it provides for you.
And at the same time, we would identify what our strong desire is!


In other words, your desire is to be what?

HS:
I'm a singer. And when I get up on a stage, it's to be just like my old self, before I got manic.

Abe:
What is that?

HS:
Excited, without getting anxious, or without having balancing desire, and medication.
To go in the bathroom and pray and calm down, or (tearing up) ...put a pill under my tongue...

Abe:
There is not anything inappropriate about continuing with the medicine! In other words, because it is giving you this stable footing for now! And so we would continue that. Do you get a sense of what we mean, when we say that?

Out of your life experience are born powerful desires. And so- when you, through life experience come to conscious awareness of things that you want, there's a vibration that activates within you, that's very powerful. And that's what the vibration of Desire is! So, when -however it happens, you give birth to some powerful desires, that you -for whatever reason, for whatever other influence in your life, aren't believing, then there's this really strong tug of war that's taking place within you. And we think that is the best description of this label that they have given you, of anything else. Every time we have seen it -and we see it every time that it is labeled, in other words- it is not something that you are making up!

Every single time, it is a person who has powerful, off-the-chart wanting, that they have figured out how to receive.

Your emotions tell you everything that you need to know about your relationship with your Source energy. And by that we mean, how much Source energy am I pulling through me, right now? Or another way of saying that is,
-how great is my desire? And as my desire is very powerful in pouring through me,
- how much of that am I allowing to pour through me, or how much of that am I not allowing to pour through me?

If I didn't want very much, my resistance would be a non-issue. In other words, if you're going 2 mph, it doesn't matter how many trees are in the way. You can guide around them. But if you're going 200 mph, the trees start to matter more!

When you have a powerful desire and so you're summoning lots of energy through you, and you have beliefs that contradict your own desire- now there's this clashing going on. And that's what the medicine helps you to soften. In other words, it softens your focus. It softens your angst. Of course, it changes the chemicals in your body, which is what is doing that. But the process through which it is happening is not as important as understanding what is happening! What is happening is:

There is a splitting of energy within you. And so, even while you are taking the medicine as you talk about your desire, and why you want it, it's not possible for you to think about what you want and why you want it, and be in as contradicted a vibration, as when you are thinking about what you want and the fact that you don't have it!

We would far rather see you with strong strong desire, that you're not allowing- than we would with no desire.

And you were born with this powerful inclination toward desire! You are a powerful focuser. Which means, it's not possible for you to reign in your desire! We don't encourage that ever, anyway. And so, what you're wanting to do, is let your desire run as rampant as it wants to run- and it is pretty strong! And then you work, to bring yourself into alignment with your desire, as best you can.

Soothe yourself into alignment!
And you soothe yourself into alignment, with words that feel soothing, when you hear them from others, or from yourself!


HS:
My husband tapped into it. He said, "Candace, just could you be quiet in your spirit?" -we were just at the bar, and before I was going on stage and he's like, "just be quiet in your spirit", and it was just... it was like somebody put a little pill under my tongue. I completely understood. And when I'm writing a song, I've learned how to be completely focused, and very quiet in my spirit. And the composition just comes out! It's amazing. And it just writes itself! And so, that's what I am learning, how to do as far as you know, trying to heal myself, as...

Abe:
Focus on those times, that that happens.
In other words, the more you remember, as you were speaking that to us- right then, you were in perfect alignment with what you were speaking! In other words, as you remembered that time, you were there again. And also it is helpful for you to recall, that you can be there- and you cannot be there, that sometimes you're able to bring yourself back into alignment with thought.

Sometimes you bring yourself back into alignment by putting the pill under your tongue! It doesn't really matter.
You can bring yourself back into alignment and when you remind yourself, that you can come into alignment. -Then it makes you not so fearful that you will get out of alignment! And when you are not so fearful that you will get out of alignment, then you don't get out of alignment so much. -And it just gets better and better and better and better!

You are born with powerful desire! And when you go with the desire, you thrive.
When you fight against it, you don't.


And so, that desire was to stand out!
That desire was to make a difference.
That desire was to be heard.
That desire was to get tuned in, and be an example to others who can be tuned in!

And so, when you think thoughts like "I'm not good enough", or "I'm not ready", or "they won't accept me" or "they don't understand me... why don't I have a record deal yet..." those thoughts are so opposite of your desire, that that's what sets you out of alignment! Where, thoughts like "It's coming. All is well. Everything in its perfect time"...

And if we were standing in your physical shoes, we would focus on the writing of the song! And we would let the Universe take care of the aligning with the contracts. In other words- you get in that creative mode! ...It's always lovely to speak with someone, who understands that creative mode! Because you know when you're there, and you know when you're not. And when you're there, you're in that place of allowing!

So, what we'd like to say to you:
You want to get into that place of allowing, relative to your record contracts, too! Yeah! Write a song about your record contract! In other words, get...

HS:
Yeah, I just finished it. It's called "The jet plane takes off", and it's about what you teach! So perfect!! I got it! Okay, um.... I think, you say genius is focus. Does Focus take practice? Or is it just something you pull out of the sky, when you're letting it in?

Abe:
Focus does take practice.
What focus is, is isolating a vibration from a maze of vibration, and focusing upon it long enough that it becomes a dominant vibration.
And so, sometimes because you are a very energetic person who's eager about a lot of different things, you have a lot of active vibrations in your experience and it's possible for you to have many things that are moving forward, all at the same time. But if there is something that is bothering you, that is getting quite a bit of your attention.

Sometimes it causes the dominance of your vibration to be not in a place of letting in the other things, that you wanting! You've been letting the Universe know, in lots of different ways, what you want. And you do not need to sit down right now, and say "I want this, and I want this, and I want this, and I want this...", because you've done an excellent job- through the contrast that you've been living- of pointing all of that out!

Now your work is to get into a place where you're a match to what you are wanting.
You're a match, when you're feeling good. You're not a match when you're not feeling good! -And so, that worries you. Because you say, "but when I don't feel good I really don't feel good."

And we say: but what that means is, you really really want it!
In other words, that's good news, not bad news, you see! Just relax more. Be more playful about it.

Continue to take your medicine at the same time,
that you continue to acknowledge that you don't need it.
Let it be something that's like a friend that helps you along the way!
Don't push against it. It is a friend, not an enemy!


And and give yourself as much time in the creative phase as you can. Because when you'r in that creative phase, that's when you'r in your place of allowing. And so, do you find that you can achieve that, almost anytime? You sit down to do it... (HS: oh yes!) ...you know how to do it, relative to the creative music. Now get into it relative to anything, that you desire! You could pet your cat. You could never think another thought about any of this- and the Universe will yield you a contract!

And the time it takes, between now and when the contract is yielded, has to do with how many thoughts you have that are worrisome in nature, that keep that from happening. The well-being is on its way to you, unless you do that thing you do. And the good news is: Every time you do that thing you do, you feel negative emotion!

So, negative emotion is not an enemy or not a bad thing. It's your friend!
It's saying: Hey what you want is on its way to you! But you're slowing it down just a little bit by this train of thought!


HS:
So, when somebody says to you "You're 33. You better hurry up! Because if you don't... you know my mother says "well that's just ridiculous, you know! You need to think of maybe going back to college!" or, you know... hey, I just opened for Coolio at the Menton in L.A. "Oh, that's great, honey! Hey... la la la la la" -and she's talking about something else. So and then, um, you know somebody from a record company says "Well you know, you have talent you're an amazing composer and you're this and that. But gez... you're really getting up there in age!" ...you know, because I've listened to you and listened to your tapes and everything, and read your book and I don't necessarily get keyed into that so much... but still, the little devil goes "huh!"

Abe:
You might say something to them, like: "Are you saying that the entry point has to be a certain age? Because there are a lot of people a lot older than I am, that are still at the top of their game. So is the age thing just about the entry point? Or are there some other qualifications, that I'm not aware of?"

Who gets to decide other than you? NO ONE, you see! it's usually someone who feels defensive... in other words, if you're hiring somebody to represent you and they're not finding any inroads, then sometimes they feel like they need to justify why things aren't going better. So they're looking for excuses and trying to lay it back on you. And what you want to do is, if you are not putting them in the position where you are making them feel like you think that they are responsible for what's happening,

they'll offer you less of that, as you begin to accept that you are the creator of your own experience.

And so, you're not laying it on your agent's table... in other words, you're in this together, but you're not making them feel defensive. They won't throw that stuff up at you. That's just their defense mechanism. Just laugh, and say "Oh, there's been a whole lot of a lot older buggers than me, making great success. Now get off of that, and let's move on! (HS: right, right!!)

...Be playful about it. Because age has nothing to do with anything! EVERYTHING is about vibrational alignment.

What we notice as we watch you, as you are moving through time, all of you as a mass consciousness, is that the majority of your desires are happening early on in your life. And if you are in a place where you can allow it, then much of your success comes very early in life. And there are people who will say "if your success does not come early, then it will not come!" -and the reason that they say that, from what they observe, is because mostly they're not really allowing themselves to want! -Only when they are young. And usually, by the time they are older, they've blocked off most of the allowing anyway. And so, they're not wrong in their observation. In other words, that is the usual rule. But that is not who you are!! In other words,

You're going to keep wanting long long long into your 80s and 90s!! And you're going to allow long long long!!

In other words, age is irrelevant. It doesn't have anything to do with it, and so- if somebody says that to you, and you want to be playful to them, just say:
"Oh, I think that what you're getting at, is that young people are usually more eager about things. But you'll never find anybody more eager than I am!"

THE REASON WE'RE DIS-APPOINTED instead of "Living real time"...
(The difference between real physical life on the leading edge vs the perfection of "mere vibration" in the Vortex)

The reason why "falling in love" seems to be better than "living love"



So, we want to talk about every relationship you have.

And we want to say to you, that every relationship that you're currently living falls far, far, far, far short of the one that you've got in your Vortex, every single time!

Every relationship that you're living cannot even come close to measuring up to the one you've got into your Vortex. Stop asking it to, stop needing those relationships to be different than they are- so that you can feel better!

That's not the way this universe is established!
That was the bouncing off place for this.
This is where you want to put your attention, you see!

What we're getting at... so, it's really interesting. You have this dream of a perfect relationship, or a perfect breakfast or a perfect hotel or a perfect drive, or (...) you have this dream. You have this anticipation, tha,t from a distance, felt good to dream it. But now you're living the reality of it. And it's not living up! So, you feel deprived. You feel almost offended. You feel almost assaulted: You say to each other, "you don't bring me flowers anymore!" You say, "you promised to obey me!", or "you promised to hold me dear!" -and we say to you, we really... if you can just hear this!! -If you can just hear that:

NO relationship that is ever manifested, will ever measure up to the one you've got in your Vortex.
And if you will let them off the hook, and focus on your Vortex, you'll keep yourself joyful. And the relationships will improve, too.


But we are not giving you this information, so that the relationships can catch up and start pleasing you- so that you can then start turning around, and observing the relationships that are pleasing you! We SO want you to get it, that that you've always been reaching into who you are. And anything less than that will never feel as good!

Now let's talk about this, in really vivid terms.
So, those of you who have been in love, who now have relationships- you want to say: you're in love. But maybe you don't really feel it so much...? It's been a long time since you felt that "in love" feeling. Here's why:
In the beginning, that relationship was more of a dream than it was a reality.

You were building that relationship long before you ever hooked up with this particular person! It became who-you-really-are. You and that person became this wonderful wonderful wonderful relationship, and it's vivid and real, and it holds all that you are. You're kind to one another! You believe in one another. You're respectful of one another. You're looking for the best in each other. You're evoking more and more, you are the catalyst that keeps pulling more good stuff through each other.

You are humorous together! You're tuned in, tapped in, turned on. You move well together: You move through life well together. In other words, in the vortex... what a magnificent relationship that you've built! Because every awkward moment improved it. Everything that went wrong, made it right. Everything that was off made it on! In other words, are you getting the sense of this? YOU created this "now"!

Some of you want to call this an illusion. We want to call it the vibrational reality.

We want to call it the relationship that you have created!
We want to call it the the the world that you created from your non-physical and physical vantage point.

It is a reality, that is real- that you've got to be a vibrational match to or you won't feel good.

So, then- when you look at reality as it is- you can't help but compare.
...You're not as nice as you're supposed to be.
..."You're not as attended to me, as you're supposed to be."
..."Chivalry is dead over there."
...You're still alive over here!

In other words... and so... then you're hard on each other. Because then you want, that... you want them to perform in a way that matches up to this! And we're wanting you to understand: you're you're looking for love in all the wrong places!

It's in your Vortex! And it's not their responsibility.

Are you following this? So, when you get there, when you get there... then what happens is: You begin enjoying the alignment of your vision. Which fills you with the feeling of LIFE. Don't you know from your own experience, that when you're on your way to the relationship, you felt so much better, than when you actually got there? And it's because, when you got there, you started looking at it as it is.

And what it is, in terms of manifestation, is never up to speed with what it has become (in the Vortex)!

-It's already past tense. ...Well, you took that pretty well!
That's hard. It's a hard thing to hear. It's... what we're saying to you is, in terms of physics- it would be like saying to you "as you're driving down the road, you want to look where you're going. Not where you are! And and not where you've been!"

You want to look where you're going.
And while that's simplistic, and really almost silly- it's the same idea. We want you to look toward what will manifest, but we want you to look toward what is! We want you to feel the realness of who you are. So, now speculate just for a little bit... think about, how have you ever... let's find some some simple ideas. Have you ever got an idea, that you'd like to refurbish your house. Or buy new furniture. And, do you remember that, how good it felt? Did you ever look through catalogues, and kind of start forming an image of how you'd like it to look?

And didn't it feel better- than when you got into the throws of trying to gather it all up or pay for it, or find someone who could coordinate it?
In other words, isn't it easier- isn't it easier to feel good in the envisioning-stage? And what we want you to come along... and we can feel you starting to move with us, what we want you... if we could convince you,

that your life is about the way you feel!!

Then it wouldn't matter to you if you're dreaming the new furniture, or if you're placing it.
If we've really convinced you, that how you feel is where it's at!

So, movie-makers, just keep dreaming new movies!
Authors, just keep dreaming new books!
Songwriters, just keep writing new songs!
The creative people never rest on their laurels. They... the happy creative people only stay happy and creative, because they keep writing the next song, you see! What we're getting at... they keep painting the next painting. Do you really think the world needs another painting?? NO!! But painters want to paint! Sculptors want to sculpt. Songwriters want to write songs. Musicians want to make music! In other words... you're getting the hang of it, aren't you? In other words,

you want to flow the energy!
That's how you mold the clay. You want to flow the energy, you want to think the good feeling thoughts! You want to sing the good feeling songs. You want to think the good feeling thoughts!


You want to think the good feeling thoughts. You want to think the good feeling thoughts!!
You don't want to think bad feeling thoughts!
You want to think the good feeling thoughts.

Now, think about it, as we watch people building empires, as we watch relationships coming together, as we watch movements coming into being- do you know that far and away the majority of the movement happens before there is any physical stuff, that even comes into being? In other words, as as you dream your empire, as you dream your dream employees, as you dream your dream product, as you dream the world's response to it, as you dream that it's all pure... because there's no reality that's clashing with it, you got to dream it as you wanted to dream.

But when you start facing reality, and reality clashes with the dream- that's when you lose your connection.

And that's when your dream slows down.
Well you're almost there! You're closer than any audience has been, we'll tell you that you're closer than any audience has been, to us having convinced you of the reality of this Vortex.

And the benefit to you, to reach toward it- because, have you ever been on vacation, and you've been out on the road, and you've been sort of free, and in an attitude of discovery with no time commitments... just sort of free flowing, and you know that fresh feeling of the Universe just yielding to you fun stuff to see, and fun things to feel... it's that fresh feeling that you can have all day every day, once you start living this real time that we're talking about.

So, someone says: "Did you get your new car?" -you could say and mean, and smile and feel good as you say:
-"no I'm still dreaming about it."
And then they'll go (disappointed) "ohh! :( ohhh." But you don't mean Oh. :( ...you mean: I'm still dreaming about it!

-"Did you meet that perfect... did you find your lover yet?" -"No. I'm still dreaming about him!" -"Oh! :( " -"No, you don't understand! He doesn't have to be here this red hot minute! The idea of him has breathed life into me, the likes of which I cannot even begin to explain."

-"Did you write your best-selling novel yet?" -"No. I'm just dreaming about it." -"Oh. :( haven't really gotten around to yet? Oh. :( " -"No no! The life is just showing me bits and pieces of it. I'm gathering it up, I can feel it formulating. I can feel the inspiration that's flowing through me! I've never felt so vivid or so alive!"

-"You moved into your new house yet?" -"No. I'm just still dreaming about it!" -"Oh! :( " -"No, no! That dreaming about it is good. I'm in the vortex! I'm tuned in with the vibrational reality of it! It's breathing life into me. Oh sure, it will manifest. But I found you can say to your friends, that the more that manifests, the more I have to insure it, the more I have to move it from place to place, the more I have to clean it!"

In other words, you watch people! The more they gather, the less good they feel. The less they've got- the better they feel. We're not trying to talk you out of manifestations, friends! We're not. Manifestations are so wonderful!

And there is nothing more spiritual than the manifestation of this spirit, that you are.
Nothing is more delicious than manifestation!


But manifestation that comes from alignment, is delicious.
Manifestation that is dragging you around by the hair is not!


And we think that, in general, our human friends are hung up on the what-isness of manifestations, and depriving themselves of the freedom, of the natural joy that comes from roving with the energy that is truly you. Now that's easy for us to explain to you, because we don't have a physical body that we're dragging around. We don't have to bathe it or clothe it or feed it. We don't live in a house that we have to pay rent on, or own or ensure. In other words, we live in a state of beingness. But here's the big picture for you!

So, does the larger part of you... you are Spirit!
You are not a thing. You are a being, not a doing. You are a being, not a having. You are a physical being, who has the potential of aligning with the clarity and the adventure and the love and the sureness and and the worthiness that is really you! And you can tell moment by moment, whether you've caught caught a glimpse of it. And when you do milk it milk it milk it milk it milk it milk it milk it until you say incessantly to those around you, who say "well, what do you need?" -you say:

"I really don't need anything! There's nothing that I need. But I'm always on the Quest for alignment!" -"What does that mean?" -"Well it's sort of a long story, but what it basically means is: I'm more than I see. Or that you see here, in this physical body! And I can feel the wholeness of who I am, through my emotions. And I'm always on the trail of that."

Now, most people won't get it. But you do! You get it.
And, in fact, you've gotten it so good, that you can't go back from it. We should have explained that at the beginning, that you now know too much. You now know too much- you can't go back. You know too much, you can't go back! You are Source energy, and physical bodies, and the way you feel is everything.

A woman said, "My lover left, and now I'm sad." And said, no you're not! -She said: "Abraham. My lover left, and now I'm sad!" We said, no you're not. She said: "Abraham!!" -she thought things she didn't say. Something about a ridiculous ghost... "Abraham, you ridiculous ghost! My lover left, and now I am sad!" and we said: No, you're not! She said, "Let me be very clear with you. I wasn't sad, and then my lover left, and now I'm sad. I'm sad because my lover left!" -and we said:

While you were interacting with that lover, you created a lover in your Vortex, that that lover was not a match to.
And when that lover left, you're using that as an excuse not to match up with the one that's in your Vortex. You're not sad because that lover left! You're sad because, right now in this red hot minute, you are not a vibrational match to the lover you have created. THAT'S why you're sad.

You're sad because you are not up to speed with who you are!
That's the only reason that you're ever sad.
It's the only reason that you're ever sick.
It's the only reason that you ever feel negative emotion:
You're not up to speed you're not up to speed you're not up to speed you're not up to speed.


Well, how do you get up to speed?
You care about how you feel and you practice reaching for the thoughts that feel better and until you find yourself in the vortex.


And then you practice being in the vortex, until you're chronically in the vortex. And then you're living real time! Then your Source energy is flowing through you. Now, as you're interacting with others, all of you is in that moment. Now you're offering one signal, not split energy!

Now you are living life as you've intended. That's what you came for.

Working hard to control your body...?
Dis-Ease is the reason for EVERY illness or physical dis-balance

(Being Upstream or Downstream around losing weight and your body)


HS:
Um, so, as I'm listening to you, I'm thinking okay... I've got the relationship. I've got the money flow. You know, life is good in so many arenas! Now I want to learn how to turn downstream with my body. So, what I've noticed first of all, it feels like all my life, I've done everything I could possibly do- and it just keeps getting worse! So, I've done every diet. I've taken every pill. I've read every book. I've...

Abe:
But, but... when we... let's talk about this, just for a moment: Because, "I've done every diet", now just in in the context of Upstream/Downstream, "I've done every diet"- which way should we point?
(HS: Up.) -Up! "I've take taken pills"... did you take diet pills...?"

HS (laughing):
Oh I took every...

Abe (tuning into the fun, moving Esthers hand either left or right to show "upstream" or "downstream"):
Which way are they?

HS: Up.

Abe: "Read every book..."

HS: Up. Worked out... you know, not just worked out but... but, I've bought every piece of workout equipment! (Esther swinging her hand into "up", audience hilarious).

Abe:
So, now... you say... but here's the really good news! In all of that (pointing "up"), there is the realization of what I'm wanting! So you must understand- whether you can feel it or get a sense of it, of what's percolating over here for you, in vibrational Escrow! In other words, with all of that focus and all of that energy and all of that desire, that... in other words, when you really really really want something, and someone said to us one day, "oh Abraham I don't want that. I've already got that." -and it was laughable to us, because people associate wanting with that feeling of not having! And the reason that they do is, because

when you want something that you're not letting yourself have, and you really want it, you can really feel it, you see.

So what we want you to realize is, that there is a really positive side to that feeling. Which means, there's something really... in other words, your river is really flowing strong in this way! Otherwise you wouldn't be feeling that. Which means, when you do find the way to turn and go with it, the results will come readily for you! You have to know, that different people have different results from food. Because you see people eating much more than you eat, who are slender, and in the body condition that they want. So you have to know... and you say, well, it's metabolism. We say blah blah blah blah blah!

Whatever you want to call it- it is the energy-balance in your body!
And so, it does not matter how much you do, if you're vibrationally pointed upstream.


-You'r Doing isn't going to get you the results.
-That's why your metabolism is slow,
-that's why your body holds on to what you do not not want: You're pointed upstream in it, you see!

So, once you start playing the game... so you're downstream, downstream, downstream, downstream, downstream... then not only will the inspiration about what to do be easier and easier, but you're going to discover that you don't have that many things you have to do differently. Because the things you are doing differently have got you in a different vibrational stance. And that different vibrational stance is causing your response to food to be different, than it has been before!

Your metabolism will kick up when you're pointed downstream, we're not kidding you.

Resistance bogs everything down that's why all heart disease, that's why strokes, that's why every disease, that's why every sickness that every single person has ever lived, no matter how severe or slight it might be, is always about vibration, that's pointed upstream. It's always about that vibrational tug of war! Doctors only recently are beginning to understand the stress effect, relative to diseases! And it is EVERYTHING.

Disease: Dis- ease! Disease, dis- ease. Dis- ease, you see!

But it's all right. It feels like if you really really want something, so the energy is really really moving fast.

HS:
Yeah. And I the harder I try, the worse it gets.

Abe:
And that's the feeling that we're... that's the feeling that we want you to identify here! "The fact that I'm trying so hard means, I'm really pointed upstream. So,

It isn't that there are certain foods that you must eat, and therefore you will get results.
It is that you can't eat something that you believe will make you fat, and be slender!


In other words, it's about your vibrational energy balance. So as you start doing those things that you believe that you need to do, and you do them with ease, your resistance begins to resolve. And so, then what happens is:
-more ideas flow to you.
-people send you recipes.
-you find new products.
-you begin to get results!
-you begin to notice that the weight is coming off.
-you begin to get into the flow of it.
-you begin to feel better, your energy increases.
-you want to move more,
-and then you get on the scale which you haven't done for 30 days...

...and you say, "wow, 15 lbs! And I wasn't doing any of that hard stuff! I was doing only the stuff that felt good, and looking at the results I'm getting!" ...and we say: the results that you will get are because of your energy alignment.

But... so let's talk about the components of this process. What really is it? What is the getting-out-of-debt-process about? It's about using action to improve vibration. And we think it is a good human technique, because what you usually hear from us is: clean up your vibration, and don't act, and then follow through with inspired action.

But this these things that have you by the throat, these things like your body... you know your body is a hard thing to control when it gets out of balance! So, how your body looks and how your body feels is a big part of your vibration. And the same thing with money: Money affects you all day every day, and so when you apply these actions that make you feel a little better, what happens is: The action then drives the improvement in the energy. And the Improvement in the energy then inspires more action, and the action drives the improvement in the energy, and more improvement in the energy,

and then you start feeling motivated from the inside, and motivation from the inside.

It's what we call inspiration. And the big thing is, and we say this relative to every subject you have: to leave everybody else out of the equation! Because it doesn't matter how somebody else looks, or how much they eat, or how much results they get from what they do- none of that is relative to you. (...) Esther remembers going out to dinner with some dear friends, years ago. They went to a wonderful Indian restaurant in San Francisco, and Esther's beautiful friend... she looked like a model, from head to toe, ordered two complete meals and ate them herself. And then ate dessert, and then everybody else's dessert that didn't finish it.

And Esther said to her: "I hope you understand, that we can no longer be friends!" and Gloria said to Esther: "Food is my friend!" and Esther said: "Well, it hates me, it just hates me!" And that's really the point that we're wanting to make:

In other words- you have to come into alignment! You have to!
You must be your friend.
You've got to start doing things that make you feel better!


And that's where this "keeping my promise to myself" comes in. And the promise to myself is:
When when you're not happy in your body with the way it feels, or the way it moves ,or the way it looks- you're launching further and further rockets. So the worse you feel in your body, the more you ask for, and the higher your standards become. and so you've got a fabulous thing going on over here (in the Vortex) that you've got to get up to speed with! Because you're creating your own tug of war, and this process will cause you to ease that tension between the two, we promise you! It will shift your vibration. And when your vibration shifts, your body will become the way you want it to!

And here, here's the part we really want you to understand.
So, being slender and fit the way you want to be, is over here (in the Vortex). aAd where you feel like you are is over here, we want you to realize that turning like this (downstream)- because you did something on that, is enough!!

In fact, it's not only enough- it's all you can do! And it's not only all you can do- it's enough. But it's not only only enough... IT'S ALL YOU CAN DO! But it's not only all you can do, it's enough. But it's not only enough it's all you can do! (Laughter). In other words... you've got to make peace with all that you can do.

And when you make make peace with all that you can do, by keeping those commitments... ah, you just start floating along! You feel better and better. You're getting the results, and then it becomes a non-issue, and then one day, not very long from now, you'll sit in this chair and you'll say: "I've got the relationship. I got my body under control! And, Abraham, this week I won the lottery!"

On the word "Desire" or "Want"

Someone said to us one day many years ago - we were trying to prime their pump a little bit - and we asked them what they wanted.

And they couldn't identify anything.

So we said, 'Well do you want such and such?'

And she said, "Oh I don't want that. I've already got that."

And what she was speaking - which represented what a lot of people are feeling is that a desire is something that you keep in place for the unfulfilled things.

That if it's already happened then it isn't a desire.

And we want you to understand that what pure desire is.
This is the definition of pure desire:

Complete alignment with the furthest-most expansion that you have accomplished.

So pure desire is you being in full sync with who you are.

And we promise you you'll never not want that.
You were born to be it and everything that surrounds you is all about that.

On the Buddhist teaching that you should have No Desires

When you're in Receiving Mode, and then suddenly there are bumps in the road...

Oh don't you love it when you get on a roll like that?
Can't you just feel it when you're tuned in tapped in turned on and it seems that everything in the universe is just opening and yielding to you?
And you're going along and going along and going along and going along and you're just sure that you're on your way to everything you want.
You're going going going .

And then all of a sudden it sort of stops.

And you say
"What happened? I thought I was going to go all the way over the edge with this one!"

And we say: What happened is
you were able to feel how much allowance you had already practiced,
and how far your allowance would take you,
and then you came up against some not-so-much-allowance which now you can begin to work on
which means
withdraw your attention from it
which in [some teachings that teach you to have no desires] said "don't want it anymore"
and we say those aren't the right words because you can't not want it.
You do want it.
You're not ever going to stop wanting it.
Just don't try to keep it active in your mind when what's active in your mind is [on the opposite end of the stick, focused on the absence of what you want,] working against you instead of for you .

In the moment that you say "I prefer" or "I like" or "I appreciate" or "I want", the heavens part for you and the Non-physical energies in that instant begin orchestrating the manifestation of your desire. In that instant! Faster than you can speak it, the Energy begins to flow, and circumstances and events, in an orchestration that we cannot begin to describe, begin to fall into place in order to give you exactly what you want.

And if it were not for your resistance, things would happen really fast.

"Will I ever stop reaching for something better?"
No.
And when you take the limitations of time or dollars out of the equation,
and you trust that the Universe will conspire to satisfy every idea you can conjure up,
then you let your ideas rip!

But as long as you feel limitations, then you keep trying to rein them in and rein them in...

NEVER again say "I have enough!"


HS:
If I'm honest with myself, the truth is is, that in my life, I've always had enough: Enough!
And when I talk...

Abe:
you know, you- whether you use honest words or not, doesn't matter, because you can't be dishonest with your vibration. Your vibration is what it is and law of attraction is responding to what it is! So, you don't have to you don't have to say whether it's truthful or not. Because what it is, is what it is! And law of attraction is bearing out what it is. So if what it is is enough- then don't change anything. And if what is is is not enough, then change some things!

HS:
Well, here's the dilemma... it's that in one sense, I've had enough. I've had enough money is... I've had enough money but...

Abe:
You see, that statement is not even accurate on any level. And let us tell you, let us tell you why! Anyone who says "I have enough" is... now, now stay with us a little bit! You're going to bock at this a little bit, because it's going to sound different than you want source energy to sound.

But anyone who says "I have enough" is not, in that moment, in alignment with the expanding being that is them -who understands there will never be enough!!

Because there will will never be a cessation of expanding.
When someone says "I have enough", what they are doing... they're focused upon limitation. They're focused on finite resources! And they are concluding: "Given the others that may be watching me at this time, that I have more than my fair share." And we want you to understand, that even at its best, that is very limited thinking!

Because there is no ending to what the universe has the ability to yield to you.

And you did not say, as you made the decision to come forth into physical experience: "I've had enough. I've had I've had enough exposure for life!" because that that would defy your being here. "I've had enough contrasts, that will lead me to more desires" -because that would defy the fact that you are here, giving birth to new desires! In other words, "I've had enough" defies everything. Because Source energy is becoming the new you, constantly!

So, what we think you've had enough of, is feeling the gap between the expanded you and the you you're letting yourself be.

We think that's what you've had enough of, right? (HS, chuckling: Right. I hear you.) And... and so, you say: "I don't want to put myself in that position anymore!" Have you ever been feeling pretty good, and then you saw something that you wanted that you couldn't afford, and then you said "oh man, I wish I didn't know I wanted that! Because now... now I feel tension about it. I didn't care before I drove it. But now I rode in it... now... (unhappy sighs)
I didn't care before I saw her! Before I smelled her, before I touched her, but now I want her!" -In other words, there are so many things that your life experience causes you to become.

And you have no choice if you are to be joyful than to stay up to speed with it!
So, never again say "I have enough!"

But say instead: "I have a way of keeping myself in perfect alignment on my way to eternal expansion!"

And that feeling of not enough, that feeling of discord is the feeling of the stream going this way, and me going this way. That's what you're trying to describe with those words, you see.

Soothe Desperate Desires by Getting to a place of "It's ok if it doesn't come this red hot minute; it'll come in its perfect timing"

If the desire feels good to you, everything is going great.

If the desire is uncomfortable, it means that you have a desire that is raging out there ahead of your [limiting] belief.

But then you can soothe that by saying,
"We don't have to do it right this red hot minute.
We'll just hold this as a future idea.
We're not going to shut the idea down because we know it's a good one.
It's not a perfect match for where we are right now,
but someday that will be a part of it.
For now, this is quite satisfying."
