“Act As If”- A Writer’s Weekend Revisited…

Posted in Energywork, manifestation, tagged "act as if", "Adventures in Palmistry", "The Lands That Lie Between", "The Psychic Power of Your Dreams", Catherine, Foresight, Foresight Publications, manifestation, Manifesting Something Better, The Practical Empath- Surviving and Thriving as a Psychic Empath on August 7, 2014| Leave a Comment »

If you know me, you know that one of the things I am fascinated by is manifestation work, and one of the stronger types of manifestation is a technique known as “act as if”. In this method, you chose a goal, think about how things would be if you had already achieved this goal, and then take on as many of the beliefs, behaviors and activities that go with that new reality as you can.

For instance, if you want to be good at a game or sport, you think about what life would be like if you already were. How would you dress? How would you act? What would you give more time to and what less? What would you think about?

And then, to the best of your ability, you do just that

Not only will this give you practice in the skills you need, it also energetically attracts that new reality to you.

Well…

About a month ago, our schedules had eased off and Starwolf was going to be away for most of the weekend. I had a lot of work to do on this year’s book, and so I resolved to have an “act as if” professional writer’s weekend. I decided to, while I got caught up on my editing, act as if I was already a fabulously successful and famous author.

Like so

I got myself special treats, like sushi and pasta, that felt like what I’d eat as a successful author. I prepared writing courses in books and on recording to do in between editing sessions. I planned meditation to support clear and creative mind and good health. I chose dramatic clothes to wear, to further the act as if process

and…

well let’s say the weekend didn’t turn out like I expected…

The first thing that happened was that a writing clock that I had designed arrived, and that was very cool indeed. But things went down hill from there.

The phone kept ringing with interruptions that had to be dealt with. People in some of my online writing groups were passing out bad information, or bullying other members, and I had to step in repeatedly. My shoulder and my foot started aching again, and had to be dealt with. The weather was hot with bad air quality, which made me dopey and a bit sick; and the associated nausea didn’t match with many of the foods that I had set up. The nap fairy kept knocking me out

I had planned on something kinda suave and elegant and calm and productive. What I ended up with was more like a scene from some kind of sitcom.

But I still got a lot of work done….

And that’s ok.

I planned an “act as if” professional writer’s weekend, and sometimes that’s something full of elegance and grace- but sometimes its full of interruptions loss of dignity and crankiness and grilled cheese sandwiches.

and the “act as if” professional writer will take whatever comes and still get the writing done

Still writing, even if my hair is a mess 😉

Putting Manifestation on Autopilot?…

Posted in manifestation, tagged "Adventures in Palmistry", "The Lands That Lie Between", "The Psychic Power of Your Dreams", Catherine, focus, Foresight, Foresight Publications, manifestation, Manifesting Something Better, Putting Manifestation on Autopilot, The Practical Empath- Surviving and Thriving as a Psychic Empath on June 19, 2014| Leave a Comment »

The other day, I got a message in my inbox titled “Putting Manifestation on Autopilot.”

Really?

Truth be told, your manifestation is already always on auto pilot. The Law of Attraction says that we tend to manifest or attract into our lives more of whatever we give the majority of our attention and energy to (or other things that vibrate at a similar level).

Thus, if we focus more on abundance, we attract more abundance. If we focus more on our fear of not being able to pay all our bills, we attract more shortages

And, if I focus more on warm chocolate chip cookies, I not only tend to attract more warm chocolate chip cookies, I may also attract more chocolate milkshakes.

If we focus on what’s right with our lives, we tend to attract more of that. If we focus on what’s wrong, more of that pops up.

So the real issue is not putting your manifestation on autopilot. That’s already been done for us.

The real issue is on putting your focus and keeping your focus on the kind of things you want so that you attract more of that, rather than the other random stuff.

So, what are you focusing on today?

What You Believe Shapes Your Reality – Life is Hard

Posted in Energywork, manifestation, tagged "Adventures in Palmistry", "Nothing Worth Having Comes Easy", "The Lands That Lie Between", Catherine, Foresight, Foresight Publications, manifestation, Manifesting Something Better, serendipity, The Practical Empath- Surviving and Thriving as a Psychic Empath, What You Believe Shapes Your Reality on August 8, 2013| 1 Comment »

Saw a post on Facebook the other day that said “Nothing Worth Having Comes Easy”.

Let’s think about that for a moment.

Now it’s true that good things are worth working for. It’s not a bad thing to remember that you may want to put in some effort if there’s something you really want at the end of the road.

But that doesn’t mean that nothing worth having comes easy. Sometimes great things just drop into your arms. This happens in life often enough that we even have a word for it – “Serendipity”; and if there’s a word for it, you know that it’s something that exists.

And the belief that nothing worth having comes easily can be a real trap for you. Energetically, it’ll tend to attract more hard work into your life than is needed to attract your goals and repel simpler methods that might be just as good at getting you where you want to go. And psychologically, it can cause you to assume anything you have to work hard for must have value (which is not always the case) and anything that comes easily must be worthless (which is also untrue)

So what if, instead of “Nothing worth having comes easy.” , you chose instead to believe “Good things come easily and joyously into my life.”, “It’s worth working for the things I want.” or “Sometimes I need to work to make things happen- and sometimes they just come to me.”

Later in this series of posts, I’ll be talking about how to change beliefs that don’t serve you for those that do. For now, just give this some thought and get clear on what you’d like to believe.

What if good things were easy for you?

It’s Time to Give Thanks

Posted in Energywork, Living in a Magickal Universe, manifestation, Philosophy, tagged "Adventures in Palmistry", "The Lands That Lie Between", Catherine, Foresight, Foresight Publications, gratitude work, manifestation, Manifesting Something Better, Thanksgiving, The Practical Empath- Surviving and Thriving as a Psychic Empath on November 20, 2012| Leave a Comment »

The year has just flown by!

And now we’re in the week of Thanksgiving, when most people are thinking about turkey with all the trimmings, and time off from work, and football, and those big sales on Friday

but it’s also good to use this day, and indeed this week as a chance to be aware of all that is positive, beautiful and blessed in your life. Everything from the obvious (your job, your health, the people you love) to the not so obvious (modern medicine, indoor plumbing, the fact that you live in a country where you are free to have different opinions from the people around you.)

Studies have found that positive thinking and focusing most of your attention on what is working in your life and good builds a stronger immune system and a more resiliant mindset, making you healthier and better able to adjust to and handle whatever comes into your life.

Metaphysical studies have found that when you focus a majority of your time and energy on gratitude for your blessings, you tend to attract more of them and other things that make you feel blessed into your life.

Surveys agree. Counting your blessings and giving thanks for them is a win- win situation. And lucky you! You have a holiday coming up that’s specially designed for that.

So, as you’re waiting in line to buy the cranberry sauce, or going through the circulars to get ready to start your holiday shopping, I’d advise you to give a moment to thinking about the blessings that are yours in your life.

and then, before you dig into that turkey on Thursday, give thanks…..

I’ve finished and released “The Lands That Lie Between” and now I’m back to work on my next book, writing and editing.

Writing – the enduring obsession

…The new book is about simple methods of manifestation work. Manifestation work is a term that covers a variety of ways to effect physical reality by using non-physical means. This include things like intent, wishing, prayer, spells and other methods of working with energy.To make this book the best I can make it, I’d appreciate your feedback. What would you like to see in a book like this? Please give me input by posting on this blog or sending me messages at we_are_foresight@yahoo.com .

Thanks in advance for any input you can give me. Your feedback can help me see the topic from different angles and I can then write to better meet the needs of folks who’ll read the book.

Looking forwards to hearing from you.
