The Secret Is Wags

After devoting countless hours to the labor of love that is this blog, I have decided to redirect my energy away from it.  Over the last few weeks, I have been maintaining this blog (marginally) along with my new site, Up From Splat, and my other hobby blog, The Joyful Springer.  I have come to accept that this is more than I want to do.

Because all of what I write about on Up From Splat is law of attraction based, and much of it focuses on getting easy, the power of the mind, and focus, my efforts there and here are a trifle redundant.  I began to realize a couple weeks ago that my posts here felt more like obligation than inspiration.

Unlike this blog, Up From Splat was designed to become an income producing business over time.  Even so, I’m committed to providing quality content, and anything that I recommend or sell on the site will be offered as a resource for creating the life you desire.

I thank you for your loyal readership here.  I appreciate you!  I’d be delighted if you follow me to Up From Splat and subscribe to receive blog updates.  I will strive to offer information and ideas that support you in your law of attraction-aware fun life journey.

A couple weeks ago, I joined Good Vibe University (GVU).  Some of you I know are already members.  If you aren’t, you’ll want to watch the video below to learn more about this great resource.

Take advantage of the $1 three-week trial membership to Good Vibe University.

My $1 has already gotten me a couple hundred times that in value.

As part of what Jeannette calls The Money Party, GVU member Kim Falconer gave free astrological chart readings focusing on the vibe of money to interested members.  Kim did my chart, and although astrology isn’t my thing, her insights were spot on, and she offered me some powerful ideas to help me shift my alignment on the subject of money.

Another member who is an intuitive offered free half-hour sessions to discuss business goals and vibrations, and I’m scheduled to talk with her next week.  This is a fantastic, valuable support for what I’m doing.

If you’re not already a GVU member, I hope you’ll check it out.  If you do, I’ll see you on the forum.

Yes, I know I keep talking about my dogs.  But when you live with a being who spends all day everyday in the Vortex, if you don’t pay attention to her attitudes and actions, you’re just plain dumb.  Who wouldn’t want to emulate pure joy? (more…)

Since I began studying Abraham-Hicks’ teachings and the law of attraction, my parents and friends have been baffled by much of what I have come to believe.  “It defies logic,” my step-dad insists.

I’ll admit that sometimes I agree.

We were all raised in such a physical world full of facts and reality, that it’s a leap of faith to live in the world of energy, trusting that what we can’t see is determining the way our life unfolds.

Logical Data

As a former attorney, indoctrinated into the world of logic by the esteemed Marshall-Wythe School of Law, I often hear my left brain clamoring for logical explanations about how our thoughts can impact the physical world.

So I’m always happy when I stumble over some bit of “logic,” some “scientific” data that confirms what my right brain and my inner knowing have accepted to be true.  This last week, I came across an article that profoundly impressed my left brain.  The article was about the effect of stress on our genes.  According to the Science Daily article, Dr. Klaus Hansen’s group at BRIC, University of Copenhagen, has just shown that stress-activating factors can control genes by turning on certain genes that were supposed to be silenced.

So what does that have to do with law of attraction?

Trump Card

Think about it.

Law of attraction and vibrational energy doubters like my sometimes persistent left brain, think that unmeasurable, nonphysical, isn’t-seen energy can’t affect the physical world.  This study shows that it can indeed affect the physical world.

If stress can trump our genes, thus affecting our physiology, doesn’t that prove that the physical can be formed and transformed by thought and unseen energy?

I sure think so.

If you hear a whooping sound, that’s my right brain doing a victory dance.  It’s delightful to have what I intuitively know be confirmed in a way that my logical brain can understand.

Sometimes, our own lives don’t give us as much “evidence” as we’d like to support the power of our thought, or rather, feeling and focus energy.  When this happens, we need to be open to receiving confirmation from other sources.  Every bit of evidence we see makes it that much easier to monitor our feelings and thoughts and reach for a better vibration.

Last week, I ran into Susie, a fellow regular beachcomber, on one of my walks with my dog, Ducky.

“I haven’t found an agate in weeks and weeks,” Susie said to me.  “Have you?”

“No,” I said.

“Where have all the agates gone?” she asked.

I said I didn’t know.

We chatted a bit more and went our separate ways.  Not five minutes later, having forgotten all about agates because I was thinking about traveling in a luxury coach with Tim and Ducky and her two Springer sisters, I found an agate.  And I found another five minutes after that.

Two agates … and two important things to remember about the law of attraction. (more…)

The other day, my mom sent me an e-mail filled with funny excerpts from real trial transcripts.  Many of them made me laugh out loud—like this one:

Attorney: Now doctor, “isn’t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn’t know about it until the next morning?”

Witness: Did you actually pass the bar exam?

When Mom and I talked about the excerpts, she zeroed in on this one:

Attorney: This myasthenia gravis, does it affect your memory at all?

Witness: Yes.

Attorney: And in what ways does it affect your memory?

Witness: I forget.

Attorney: You forget? Can you give us an example of something you forgot?

Unfortunately, Mom didn’t want to talk about how funny this was.  She wanted to talk about myasthenia gravis. (more…)

Monday, the rain came back.  Hurray!

I’m a passionate rain lover.  I’m okay with the rest of nature’s weather buffet too, but my favorite part of it is rain.  So I was excited when we got our first all-day, steady rain and wind after having two months of dry weather.

Monday morning, Ducky and I headed to the beach to have an invigorating walk in the elements.  It felt awesome!  What a rush!  The feel of the cold sheets of water on my skin, the musky scent, the relentless and energizing rhythm—walking in the rain on the beach is a 100 times better than coffee for an early morning kick start.

So there I was on the beach in the blustery wetness, and I suddenly felt inspired to invoke the power of the rain. (more…)

About six weeks ago, Tim took two new jobs.  Neither job is ideal—in terms of hours, money, or the work itself—but jobs are jobs, and we need income.

For the first month or so of Tim’s new 7-day a week work schedule, we struggled a little to accept our lifestyle change.  For years, we’ve worked together at home and enjoyed the freedom of setting our own hours.  It was tough to accept having a couple companies dictate our schedule.

Tim dealt with it better than I did.  He’s good at finding what Abraham-Hicks calls positive aspects (the upside of the situation), and he decided to enjoy the challenge of learning his new tasks.  He also focused on enjoying the variety of people he met. Still, even as I felt a profound sense of loss, as if I was grieving the life we’d thought we created and had to let go to deal with our present circumstances, I saw that Tim’s energy was lower than I’d seen in awhile.  He said he was okay, but his body language and manner said different.

I knew we needed to do something to shift our point of attraction.  Our vibrational frequency was lower than it needed to be to match our desires.  What could we do? (more…)

When a whole lot of yucky things are going on in your life and you’ve sunk to the bottom of the emotional scale and you know you’re out of alignment with what you want, what can you do to feel better right this minute?

Abraham-Hicks teaches many processes that can help improve your emotional set point and thus your alignment, but sometimes things can get so overwhelming that it’s tough to summon up the oomph to do any of the processes.  Sometimes, visualizing and journaling and whatever else is just too much trouble.  And remember, if it doesn’t feel good, it’s not helping.

So what can you do when you feel this bad?

In the last post, I told the story of how Tim saw a banner with country singer, Clint Black’s name on it.  Before the day that happened, I hadn’t thought of, seen reference to, or in any way stumbled over Clint Black’s name, songs, or picture for years.

The day after the events I related in the last post, I watched an internet marketing video, and the marketer referred to Clint Black.  Wowza!!
