What am I doing at the moment?
I place Abraham cards, I listen to the vortex meditations and read the guide, I do Abraham exercises, and above all, find the better-feeling thought, wouldn't it be nice if?, focus block, appreciation
Maybe you have helpful ideas on how I can change the vibration of mirtazapine so that it only supports me when I sleep. I don't know how to formulate my wishes about this topic without going into denial. I'm a little frustrated at the moment, I have to admit, and maybe you have other great ideas too.
Don't hit it all so head on! It is common that people try to use Abe's wisdom as a tool with which they try to bang their life into shape. But the true clue is TO BE NICER TO YOURSELF, first and foremost. Abe often say
"We only have 1 answer: GET HAPPY. In any way you can."
And with our upbringing, this is easier said than done!
"Getting happy" means, to stop judging and bashing yourself for doing things "wrong".
"Getting happy" means, to care for what lifts your emotions, every step along the way, and not think thoughts that feel terrible.
We think if we would make us do stuff the "right" way, everything would be fine. But do we even notice how we feel, now, now, now? ...We have not learned to listen to our inner voice about what we like, or don't like! Instead, we are brave and socialized and jump through the hoops that society holds up for us, and call that "doing it right"! And most of that is fine. We came to be part of a functioning society!
But we have so MUCH MORE freedom to think- and do what would feel better, than we allow ourselves! We can smile about things, instead being p..* about them. We can wish those who seem to be "rascals" the very best and see them heal, instead of condemning them. We could relax, instead of tense. But most of all, we could control WHAT WE CAN CONTROL (which is only only only our
own response to things, and our own thoughts and our focus). What would be HUGE!
And, we could drop everything that is NOT IN OUR CONTROL- which includes what others think and do, how the weather, the political situation etc etc, is.
So: caring for you OWN PIE, and letting go of anyone elses pie!
All of this comes down to a FOCUS, that feels good to you (or at least as relief). You can choose where you look. You have full freedom about what you think. And this both are enough to make or break your joy! ...Stop looking into the used toilette, so to speak. INSTEAD, look at the beautiful flower, the sky, the leaves in the wind... or at ANYTHING that feels light, happy, easy to you, here and now. And discipline yourself to drop all topics that feel hard, bad or even devastating!
Find things to appreciate- because THAT FEELS GOOD. Not for the ulterior motive to get your stuff. ...That can be small things, as your cozy bed or the beautiful view from your window, or a funny movie or a good song. Find something to appreciate about yourself!! Enjoy your favourite shoes. WHATEVER! This alone, when you practice it regularly in each day, would be enough to bring you good sleep, confidence and joy about your body, and release all pressure.
One resistance that I have already recognized is that I put a lot of pressure on myself, which works against me.
Exactly!
RELAX. Practice relaxing! Release your tense shoulders, breathe deeply, breathe out, consciously. Do things just a bit slower, but more aware. Do this for 2 or 3 minutes, each time you catch yourself being tense.
Do this, together with going general, much more gentle and friendly, on all "your hot topics" that might give you fear, anxiety or guilt! (if you don't know about going general, google Abraham-youtube clips with that search-words. LOTS of material out there!)
Maybe you have helpful ideas on how I can change the vibration of mirtazapine so that it only supports me when I sleep.
That lies solely in your own hands, and in the story you choose to tell about it:
-When you expect it to have side-effects, it will.
-When you expect it to soothe you into nice happy sleep- it will do that.
It's ALL about your expectation, your focus and vibration! And when you manage to "get happy", or at least feel just a bit better and find some relief, you are doing it right. And then, again. And again.
It is a journey!
