Hey Y'all,
So, I this is an update for days 10 thru 14 of my 30 day meditation challenge. Well... I am pleased to say I have been doing quite well, even with being smack dab in the middle of PMS (note to self: get dark chocolate and more tea!!). Anyways, yeah... I am still noticing I can get into a meditative state quickly, sometimes even when I am not meaning to meditate like when we went crabbing or cooking or whatever.

 I think that maybe I will be putting more emphasis on the positive thinking part because meditating is all well and good but I don't want to meditate, be good until something pisses me off and then be irritated for damn near the rest of the day. Just some food for thought:)

 I'm also noticing that I'm sleeping a lot better, which is a really nice bonus that I didn't expect. My husband told me the other day that my eyes, meaning like underneath eye area, looked really good. I thanked him, but also wondered how bad my eye bags normally be lookin... only kidding;)

 Also, I started working out again, which I normally do during the beginning of the month. I like the combination of working out and meditating, even though it takes some time but I think it's worth it. I woke up at 5:30 today to get this accomplished before the dogs needed to go out --which is normally the first thing after I wake up. 

 I am doing pretty good. Going to continue... I think that the more consistently you do this meditation thing, the more it helps you stay grounded and gain perspective into what's really important.

The Truth About Letting Go

 I recently had an experience that shed some light on the whole let go/don't let go debate in the manifestation community. Me and my husband took off last Friday to go to the casino for his birthday weekend. It was spur of the moment, so he didn't even tell me he wanted to go until the day before. Since I already had the day off I said fine, let's go.  Normally when we go to a casino or Vegas or whatever, I hella hype myself up for the gambling portion of the trip. I say things like 'I'm the lucky winner of $X' 'I'm going to win the jackpot' and 'Every time I play, I win'. And while this method works to some degree (I see a small amount of wins with it, and don't lose all my money or anything-might break even), it never seems to yield the results I'm really looking for.  Well fast forward to this particular casino trip and my husband turns to me in the car as we drive up to the casino parking lot, and says, "Are you gonna win&quo

Affirmations + Angel Numbers- Progress Right Now

So the first thing that comes to mind is 111. Basically I've been seeing this number consistently since I started my manifestation journey using the Law of Assumption. On the microwave. On the clock. The number of likes someone got on a Facebook post. I see it on the amount of calories on juice at Costco. On my receipt for groceries--literally anywhere and EVERYwhere.  It's something silly that I'm proud to have manifested because I know I did it deliberately. Sometimes, when I microwave a snack, I DELIBERATELY put it to 1:11 just for funsies. Needless to say, 111 is really easy to notice on accident but also especially on purpose.  That's what I felt like I was missing with manifesting physical things or situations. The ability to notice representations of my desires on purpose. During the week, I am typically really busy with work and it doesn't occur to me to think about my desires for two reasons. The first reason is that my work day is so starkly separate from

Your Greatest Distraction from Manifestation

-
 Have you ever complained that there's not enough time in the day to get everything you want to get done accomplished? Between work and chores and getting your obligatory 8 hours of rest in every night (in theory), there's not enough time to manifest your heart's desire? Well, I'm here to tell you that, for 90% of everyone you know, that not having enough time thing is totally bogus. Where is all the time going, you ask. What could possibly be sucking the life out of our schedule so drastically? Hint: It's not your work or school routine. Big shocker, it's technology.  Here's a great exercise to try out: go on your phone and go to Settings. Scroll down until you see 'screen time' or 'digital wellbeing' (for android users). It will show you a bar graph of your cell phone usage and what apps you use and how long you use them. I was quite frankly shocked at how many hours a day I use my phone. My average is still over 4 hours total to this day.
