Noticing Abundance

It's nearing the final months of the wonderful monthly Quantum Attraction Cafe http://tinyurl.com/kuqje. The participants are really receiving so many gifts from knowing more about the Universal Laws and how to implement the principles into their daily life. There's been exciting breakthroughs for them as well as my self. A heightened awareness of abundance in my life took place for me this week.

Here's how it went:
Sunday: Time seemed to bend and the day had a slow measured pace that gave the perception of a long lovely day. I sent out a draft of a presentation that a colleague and I worked on to committee members.

Monday: Out of the office contract where the day seemed to flow and any challenges seemed to disappear. Received lots of positive feedback on the draft presentation.

Tuesday: Had the yard cleaned up and it was a job well done. The Landscaper listened to what I wanted and gave some excellent advice on improving the care of my plants.

-Attended a Coaches meeting where the presenters clarified some murky points for me.

-Had a awesome client coaching session with big Ahas.

-Hired a person to transcribe some audios for me that fit my budget. Yippee!

Wednesday: Had a contract postpone services then it turned around
and I was able to assist another contract in the morning.

-I made huge headway on organizing and pulling together an e-product that I was sitting on the fence about.

Thursday : Time slots opened up for me to complete the e-product and its ready for a graphic artist to create a digital graphic for me.

-Had a transformative lunch with my BFF where I received 10% off the bill. Plus she shared a fabulous transformative book with a horse theme. The subject of horses and horse symbols have been popping up all week.

-Found a pair of cross trainers that work for my feet and I received an additional $25 off the sale price. Was pampered and taken care by lovely Jane at the shoe store. first time ever.

- Attended a closing of a loan consolidation with my husband and had the best processor. We had a lot of laughs.

Friday: Received a nice size amount of money.

Saturday: Received a wonderful Myofascial Release Treatment and was given a 2 for 1 special on the fee.

-Went shopping with my husband for trip supplies and we found everything we needed on sale.

As you can see, I had an abundant week. Yes there were speed bumps and "sucky" situations but I found as I focused on Abundance I attracted more abundance and was able to navigate the rocks of the week with the knowledge that there were solutions, that there was a silver lining. I just needed to open up my eyes and see it.

Here's to living with eyes wide open.

Saying Yes

My husband and I returned from our trip to Wyoming. We needed to take care of some business and bring some personal items back to our house in Tucson as well as take out some time for R&R. Because the items we needed to bring back were more than my husband's truck could accommodate, we drove two cars. Those of you who know me are aware that driving is not on my list of fun things to do especially in large cities and triple+lane interstates. It actually was my suggestion to take both cars. I declared a deliberate yes to driving and activated my "this is easy and fun" mindset. So after attending a very exciting and informative workshop on Purpose coaching, we headed up to the Northern latitude. All through Phoenix I called on all my reserves and angels to calm the almost continuous panic attacks that I was having. It was exhausting but I made it through and my husband said it looked like I was in total control of the situation from his lead position. After that it was a piece of cake. Two more "just say yes to what 's important" situations presented themselves to me.
Here's one of them:
We took a day to visit Yellowstone since our lodging was close to the entrance.

foregoing some of our favorites stops-Lewis Falls, the Lake Hotel area and Hayden Valley, we decided to pick out something that we hadn't done before.

My husband had read about the Grand Geyser located in the Lower Geyser Basin near Old Faithful. This geyser is the tallest most predictable geyser in the world reaching upwards to 180 feet in the air while two smaller geysers accompany and herald its eruption. Other tall geysers erupt maybe once a year on a who- actually- knows- when- they're- going- to- erupt basis. We walked to the viewing seats(while also keeping an eye out for Old Faithful) and noted that the geyser could erupt 2 hours on either side of 3pm. It was 12:30 so we decided to wait. We were the only two on the viewing for awhile and then a whole family clan joined us. This family has a tradition of coming together yearly to watch the Grand Geyser erupt. It was great being with them as they gave us tidbits of what to watch for to know when the Grand would make its appearance. Oh I forgot, it was threatening rain and mostly cloudy and very windy. Turbin geyser heralds the eruption of the Grand and goes off every 20 minutes or so. So we patiently waited and waited. We were thinking that sitting and waiting for this geyser to go off was not in our best interests. By 2:30, we were ready to discontinue our zen geyser watch and go back to our room. Our new found friends of the Hyatt family encouraged us to stay. So we said YES and at 3:15 we were treated to the majesty of the Grand Geyser with Turbin geyser starting it off and a smaller geyser vent blowing as well. (See video below.) We were also witness to the marriage proposal of one of the members of the family as the geyser went off. Surrendering to the situation resulted in a lively encounter with new acquaintances and a deep spiritual experience of the Divine. Afterward the geyser pool was empty with the Grand Geyser taking a much needed self- care rest break. After all, when you play BIG, self-care is critical.

Everyday there are opportunities to say yes and play in a big way in creating what matters most and we were very glad we did.
