Visualization and Focus

Good Day from my Skycastle in Germany. I hope that all of you are doing well and visualizing your desires. I got out of alignment a few weeks back and it took some refocusing to bring myself back into alignment. Somehow we have this tendency to revert to old ways, thinking they are easier. However, its not so much that old ways are easier it's that it's easier to fall back to old ways. Adjusting or changing our way of thinking/believing takes some time to become instilled within us or become our habit. When new and better ways of thinking finally become our habit then old habits are not turned to; as in the past. My trip to the States knocked me out of the routine that I had been practicing, therefore my body responded with becoming ill. Our bodies tell us whats going on with our thoughts. I am well and back into my routine of meditating, doing yoga and taking care of my body. More importantly I am taking care of my thoughts.

One of the things that has occurred over the last month or two is that I got into the habit of chasing several rabbits. An ancient proverb says; If you chase two rabbits you catch none. Meaning if you are trying to focus on to many things at once you get so split that you get out of alignment and you do not manifest anything specific. You are telling the Universe you want this, that, this and that. You put something out there, snatch it back and then put another thing out there and again snatch it back. Focus is an important factor. When I was doing Yoga this morning I was reminded that Yoga tells you that you must focus on a point, in front of you, to remain balanced. It says that if your mind or focus is wandering you become out of balance. To hold a Yoga pose you must focus on a point in order to balance. As soon as your focus leaves the point you fall out of balance.

I realized that my original focus or intention was to teach and practice visualization. To guide other's in learning Visualization to manifest a desired experience. I had gotten off into many other areas of Law of Attraction and was focusing on too many things. Not that what I have done so far, in my work, was pointless or worthless. It has served well. However, the rabbit I desire to chase is Visualization.

Something that came to me on the treadmill this morning was that fear is within us because we believe something or someone else is in control of what happens to us. Therefore we fear the possibility of that something or someone will harm our sense of well-being in some way. When we realize that we are the master of our Universe then we will no longer feel fear. Knowing that you are the one that manifests your experience can be soothing because you know you are the one in control. You are the one making the decisions. With your thoughts/focus you manifest your experience.

In my focusing on so many things I began to feel fearful. There was so much going on and I lost sight that I was in control, I manifest what I desire and all of these projects are attended to by choice. I have decided to come back to my original focus of specializing in visualization.

So, for the most part, I am going to be talking about visualizing what we desire. Seeing in our mind, or third eye, what we desire as our life experience.

To bring a vibrant image into your mind you must think about all the aspects of the experience you desire and bring them together.

Collect the ingredients that make up the experience you desire; such as the colors, the smells, the sounds, the textures, and the feelings. How does your body feel in the condition you desire? How does your heart feel in the relationship you desire? How does your nervous system feel in the abundant condition you desire.

When you read a book and get completely drawn into the story and you feel the character and the surroundings you are visualizing. When you are sure you can smell the meal the character, in a story, lays down on the table you are visualizing. When you feel yourself relating the character so deeply that you almost believe it is you that is having the character's experience. And when someone, in the real world, speaks to you while you are so involved in a story you are reading and you don't hear them it's because you are completely involved in the visualization of the moment the author is describing. This is visualization!

So when you are designing your visualization you are writing the story of the experience you wish to have.

Write your story, with every single detail that you can think of, as if it were already your experience.

I.E. As Michelle stood in the front yard taking in the red, gold and bronze fall leaves on the tree, she turned towards the house in response to the delicious smell of the catfish frying in the kitchen and the wind blew her hair into her face tickling her nose and she sneezed.

In this description, Michelle, at this very moment saw the colors of the fall leaves, smelled the catfish in the air, felt the wind on her skin and the hair on her nose and had a response; the sneeze.

This is how you write your story for your visualization. Write it as present tense, include all the senses and describe responses until you can feel yourself having the experience. It's call Make Believe.

Get your head in the clouds and dream. Dream of all the joyous experiences you wish to have and allow yourself to soar into the dreaminess of the clouds

Spend time every day dreaming. At least 20 minutes a day and then write down what you dreamed about.

Until next time, Happy Dreaming

Be Well

Love Michelle
