I may really rock your world now. Stay with me. Stay open. And, remember…this is your WooWoo dose for the day.
Many years ago, my mom told me about this woman, Esther Hicks, she was paying to go see talk in Chicago. Now, this woman, when on stage calls herself Abraham. Abraham, in fact (my mother told me), is a group of spirit entities or infinite intelligence (whatever that is), who come through Esther. She is the medium through which this group (Abraham) tells their teachings. After she/he/they, do her/his/their opening statements, “they” (she/he), takes questions from the audience for the duration of the 7+ hours.
Somewhat flabbergasted at my mother’s lack of reasoning, I said, “So, you’re going to pay how much money to watch a woman “channel” some group of people that call themselves Abraham?” Pause…”Are you out of your mind? Mom, this has to be fake.”
I did think she was crazy. Honestly thought she had lost it. But off they went to Chicago to listen to this crazy lady. The whole time, my mom kept saying, “You know, I really don’t care how these teachings are getting here…the teachings are amazing. They speak the truth…they make sense. And, when I listen to their messages, I feel better about my life and how I can impact change within it.”
I will admit…curiosity took over. After hearing about my mom’s experiences, I actually paid to go see the “crazy lady.” The first time I went I was hoping Esther would make a mistake. I was hoping that instead of saying “We (being Abraham) think…” she would slip and say, “I think…” I just wanted her to not be the medium or channeler because it just seemed too WooWoo. I chuckle now at how un-WooWoo I actually was…and, note, Esther did not slip up. Shocker.
Anyhoots, slowly but surely I started listening to the CDs. I picked up one of their books “Ask and It Is Given” and started applying some of their teachings. My mom was right about the concepts (often she is). Regardless of how they are coming out of this woman’s mouth, the messages were spot on. They made sense. And I saw my life start changing before my eyes. I started manifesting more and more frequently. I began catching myself with negative self-talk that didn’t feel right. I followed my emotions more than my brain when making decisions and that made for better decisions. I talked differently about a subject and I could feel how I changed. I focused more on the solution and less on the problem.
For example, “I will find my sunglasses. My sunglasses are here in this house. I know I will find them soon. Heck, in the future, I’m wearing my glasses.”
Guess what…it feels better to think and talk in the positive. Hanging out in the negative doesn’t feel good to me anymore.
You may have realized that all of this is based in the Law of Attraction. The Yes’s of our world attract the Yes’s. The No’s attract more No’s. Simple. The more you focus on the negative, the more you attract it. So why not focus on the positives? Simple.
To simplify it even more, this is not a new or even WooWoo concept for that matter. I started looking back in history and found these quotes:
“We become what we think about, all day long.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
“We are shaped by our thoughts, we become what we think.” Buddha
“We will not build a peaceful world by following a negative path.” Martin Luther King Jr.
I mentioned earlier that Abraham takes questions from the audience. Over 12 years ago, this was my biggest “ah-ha” that it was all a hoax. Those questions had to be planted. There was no way Esther randomly picked people out of a room of 400+ people and spontaneously, without pause, gave them this brilliant information. And, often this brilliant information was extremely personal and spot on to the question-asker. This couldn’t be real…all of those questions were planted.
Wrong again…I went to a session in 2014 and, you guessed it, I was called up front to ask a question. I was in the HOT-SEAT!
