Guided Retreats: Are Your Thoughts Creating Your Reality?
What does your reality look like? Are you content with your job? Your relationships? And how is your health? When we look outside of our life, we will see what kind of thoughts we have inside our heads. I always say, if you are in your mind, watch out! You’re in enemy territory.
How many times have you heard, either through books or movies, that your thoughts create your reality? The movie, The Secret, was a big hit by explaining the Law of Attraction, which states simply that first you ask, then you believe, and you will receive. The Law of Attraction experts stress being very clear about what you are asking for. Then, as you focus on your goals, you will start to believe and to receive. You just have to be open to new possibilities.
REALLY? That’s it?
If that were truly the case in many situations, for myself as well as my clients, things would have played out totally differently.
I remember 10 years ago when the real estate market was ridiculously high and my house was worth almost double what it is now. I thought it would be a great time to sell. Many people in my community had told me how great my house was and that if it was ever on the market, they would want to purchase it. I was ready to make a change, and there was never a doubt in my mind that my house would sell if priced right. So I proceeded to fix things that needed repair and hired one of the best realtors in our area. The agent priced it right and as my excitement grew, I could see myself in another home and someone else loving this home. I had no doubt that my home would sell within 30 days. Well, guess what? I still own it. It was on the market for 2 years and never sold.
Why didn’t my home sell? I asked very clearly for what I wanted. I certainly believed it was going to sell, and I was ready to receive the funds and move to another home. What happened was I ended up getting a loan modification that lowered my payment 4 times lower than what it was. I sold my lot that used to be attached and had it designated as a Bed and Breakfast. So, the universe had another plan for me altogether and ignored what I had asked for because it wasn’t in my best interest.
In my guided retreats:
I will teach you how to know yourself in such a way that you will be able to hear what your heart is telling you. You will be able to hear what the universe is saying and what is in your best interest so that you can flow with your life, not push up against it.
I just saw a great movie called The Power of The Heart where it talked about asking your heart what to do because it always knows long before our minds know. If you check in with your mind, you might get snagged on an old belief, and that advice might be from your ego/little girl.
Through my guided retreats whether it be my intensive, rejuvenating or my couple retreats, you will learn how to live from your heart and listen to your inner guidance. If we are not in our hearts, we are in our fears with all our old beliefs, and creating the life we desire and deserve will be impossible.
