LOA and Animal Cruelty S998

Animal Cruelty is a hot topic now in NJ, as Governor Christie just vetoed Bill S998, which would have allowed gestating pigs to have some freedom of movement.  Here in NJ, this gestation crate issue is gaining some momentum because Christie is trying to gain favor from the Governor of Iowa, who strongly supports the pork industry.  The bill theoretically would save pigs from an inhumane lifetime locked into a crate, but these crates aren’t actually used here.  So, the bill would just continue to make sure that the crates WON’T EVER be used, or brought back.

This symbolic gesture would help pigs, but at the same time, us animal rights activists also have to balance ourselves, and know that there are other solutions.  Solutions that will be coming shortly, because over 90% of NJ wanted the crates gone.

The reason why I write this article is to bring up important points about all sides of this situation. And, mostly because I want to get some positive momentum going that will allow the animals freedom while they are alive.  Some humans see these pigs as so important that they have rights, and some aren’t moved to help animals in any situation.  My goal is to write about the LOA (law of attraction) and animal cruelty, and give some tips to live a better and happier life, no matter what side of the animal rights issue you are on.

Creative Visualization Gone Wrong

How many times have you told yourself that you want something one specific way, and you visualized all the details, even consciously trying to create the “right” atmosphere in your mind, and then have something completely different manifest?

I know when I completed my MA, I was a special ed teacher and looking to move into a school guidance position.  Yet, when I visualized what I wanted, which was a good paying job that would realize my worth, I “knew” that I was coming in as a new counselor with zero experience, and I let it affect my worth…and I took a paycut to accept the job, which was also subpar. I soon left that job for another, and gaining in confidence, moved $10,000 up the pay scale AND found an amazingly good work environment on all levels, literally the perfect job.

Has that ever happened to you?  Or something similar?  Until I got it right in my mind, I couldn’t have what I wanted physically yet, it couldn’t manifest until I knew I was it. More

Arguing For My Limitations

I had an almost urgent feeling that I HAD to get this post out. I just took up jogging again, after years of not bothering to even try real cardio. There is good news and good news! But I must start at the beginning and brief you, so you fully understand why it matters where I came from…

I was teaching in Newark when I started jogging, urged along by a coworker, who was a former marathon runner. I was maybe 25 or 26, in great health overall, but never tried jogging outside of high school gym class, where I got winded. After a few runs with my students as part of a jogging program during school, I didn’t get winded any longer. It was getting easy. So easy, I started running at home and loving it.

It kept getting easier, actually. So easy, I was running 4 miles in the morning without breaking a sweat. Eight minute miles without breaking a sweat. Then, I thought, maybe I’ll train for something bigger like a marathon or a half marathon. I started doing longer weekend runs, getting up to 8-10 miles no problem.

All the while, I was considering getting pregnant, and with my (ex) husband wanting to get pregnant faster, I took medical advice that I really didn’t like. More

LOA and Divorce or Fixing Your Marriage?

Abraham says that divorce would never happen if the person was in the vortex! So, why does anyone ever really get divorced? Let’s explore the real reasons! I’m going to discuss how to get happy within your marriage so that you can avoid a divorce to begin with, or get happy and get out of your marriage, so that you can really enjoy your life.

Years ago, I created the Real-Divorce.com site about uncontested divorce to show others how to get divorced peacefully, or amicably, if that is at all possible, so, I am not holding back when I say that the reason anyone ever gets divorced is simply a combination of:

  • the person isn’t happy and also thinks it’s up to his/her partner to create the happiness he/she wants,
  • the person doesn’t accept him/herself,
  • the person finds fault with or blames the partner or others for his/her problems.

Comment below if you agree or disagree with this, but I believe that when a person isn’t happy, and thinks the partner has to do things for him/her, (which most people do if you pay attention), it is an extremely manipulative way of thinking and living.  In fact, it is detrimental to relationships!  Examples of this include: More

Book of Positive Aspects about Children

I’m just starting to use a book of positive aspects about children…I’ve been doing LOA very actively, and with more and more focus and clarity, for over a year. And, I’m sorry I didn’t do this sooner!  In the teachings of Abraham, Esther Hicks speaks about using this book to just enjoy positive things about any topic a person likes.  As the person writes, they think of more and more things that are positive, building a positive vibration about the topic.  When you feel like stopping, you stop.  Change the vibration, little by little, until it’s way more positive than negative…or just keep adding more positive to an already positive vibration.

I’ve heard about the BOPA and all, and I’d read Ask and It Is Given, I’ve journaled and done focus wheels, I’ve written what I am grateful for. I have book after book with notes everywhere. Finally, after somehow not realizing it was so useful, I started to write my own first Book of Positive Aspects–because I finally decided it was time to ONLY write about my children in a positive way.  Frankly, I was tired of having little complaints about my family life (even though they had plenty to complain about as well).

I have already seen a tremendous improvement in my relationship with my children. Just by viewing them with a better light, I have managed in a few days to influence a relationship that has been at times difficult, toward much more positive communication, a new cooperation, and just more kindness.  I am actually in awe of this beautiful process that I have carefully set into motion, and am eager to continue to use.

Does the Law of Attraction Work and Some Abraham Processes

Have you been wondering, “Does the law of attraction work?”  I meet many people who say it does, and many that do not.

Life has many flavors, colors, feelings, senses, and we are all exposed to various people and situations that shape us into the beings we become. It is never our circumstance itself, but how we view the “hand we are dealt” that determines how we think about ourselves and life.

The law of attraction is what sets up this process of deciding what we like and don’t like, and then as we focus our attention (even the newborn baby will believe it will be cared for–or not) we map out our “emotional set points” for our future lives, and therefore, our happiness.

Sounds crazy, right?

The cool thing is the the law says that if we focus our attention and generally believe that good things will happen, then they will (like an expectation), and that if we believe negative things will happen, then they will.  This article will explain the camps of thought about LOA, and how to use it should you like to test it out for yourself…that is the easy part, so relax into it!

Gaining or Losing Confidence after Divorce

I have to share a really personal story, because I believe it has real relevance for anyone out there. Although losing confidence after divorce is so typical, I believe there is a benefit to notice that gaining confidence IS possible after a life changing event, even if the event appears to be “negative.” It is my experience, that although most divorcing people attempt to get friends and family to understand their side of the arguments they put forth, it is never one-sided!  People in the midst of divorce feel stifled and suffocated by their spouse at times, and sometimes the divorce is seen as the answer to “free” the person of the ball and chain.  Through the divorce, a person can feel free enough to now pursue the ideas, ideals, dreams, or goals that they did not feel they could arrange within the marriage. Truth be told, it theoretically could be possible to be free within the marriage as well, but that would take a path to allow freedom for both partners. Very hard to accept blame when a spouse believes he/she has been wronged, and it’s far easier to blame the other…

If one’s confidence is tied to another’s opinion of you, you will be a sitting duck during a divorce. More

Peaceful and Positive Parenting using LOA and Affirmations

holisticjen's avatarBeyond Positive Affirmations

How do you know if you are the peaceful, positive parent you wish to be?  Do you actively use the law of attraction or affirmations for yourself, your relationships, and your parenting? It’s easy to say that, “I’m a good parent,” but without real introspection, a really terrific parent might feel like he’s is terrible or a really horrible abusive parent might think he/she is getting by alright.

Unfortunately, many people don’t realize how parenting is undervalued in society, so people don’t take the time to look at what life is really like for parents of small children, instead focusing on how hard it is when they are teens, and complaining about kids being disconnected from adults or being too entitled.  What parents need is a consistent stream of praise for themselves!  But guess what? No one can really give it to them, unless they cultivate it within.  Know that…

Law of Attraction and Acne

I would bet many people use the law of attraction to clear up acne, and I’d like to offer my unique perspective on this topic.  I had acne for 32 years, and have finally found the way to have clear skin (notice I didn’t say “acne” there!) on a regular basis.

It took a full year for me to manifest completely clear skin, because it took time to get my thoughts fully positive (and REALLY start practicing self-love) without often thinking that my skin looked bad, that it hurt, that I didn’t like it, let alone the feelings of itchiness or soreness that goes along with having acne.  One of the MAIN tricks was to get my mind on other topics that are fun and that I liked, stuff that makes me happy.  It is a process to get the clear skin, usually not an overnight event.

Doing these two things, offering little/no resistance about acne, AND just being generally positive about myself (any aspect of myself) and about life, was the right combination to bring me the clear and easy skin I was wanting.  It was okay that I’d lived with acne for so many years.  I forgave myself because I didn’t know that I had the control I have now.  I looked forward to running my fingers over my face when I washed it and feeling smooth skin.  I felt eager to take a shower to feel smooth skin, and I knew I could find clear patches of skin more on my body more than my face.

I looked forward to any opportunity to praise the good in my skin:  the softness, the color, the warmth, the smoothness, how my children want to snuggle with me, and how my husband gives me big hugs and happily feels my skin.  I love the feeling of getting into my bed and feeling the coolness of the satiny sheets, and putting on lovely clothes that fit me well and compliment me.  I love the feeling of looking great, thinking that my smile was so much more telling of who I was.  I loved knowing that since this is all temporary, I will be manifesting clear and beautiful skin soon, and keeping it that way.

As time and changes came, I’ve milked the compliments also, relishing how much better I started looking, because INSIDE, I was feeling better and more confident.

I had to take care of the resistance, or the negative thoughts I had about acne, by remembering that my body knows how to heal itself, and that this acne is only temporary.  What is lasting is my beautiful opinion of myself.  My self-worth is something that should never change, and like faith, it should be unwaivering.  My opinion IS always changing, but, into more and more good about myself.  I don’t have time for any thoughts on fear or doubt, but instead I pre-pave my day by remembering the good in myself, the support I am given, the nice things I do for others, and how all these things make me feel—amazingly powerful, loved and loving, and passionate about all I am doing.  Peace has been another key component here–the more peace I felt, the easier my life became, and the more ease I felt, the more peaceful I became.

The law of attraction just says that what you think about is what you become.  So, thinking the positive things (substituting the positive for the looking at what is type negative thoughts) allowed me to become more positive.  Good things, love, peace, appreciation, ease, fun, clarity, were the ways I got there.  Just thinking about wanting to have more of those feelings often helped me to manifest clear skin consistently, and especially every time I had a stressful moment.  True, it’s great to have clear skin, but what about when I am hit with a new bout of acne?  I already know that by focusing my mind in such a way that I only think about what I want, the acne goes away VERY quickly, and all symptoms were less than what they’d been for the decades before I practiced LOA.

And, like the Silva Method teaches, I would also affirm that “Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better” often.  See my positive affirmations and acne article as well for more easy tips on clearing up acne.

With the law of attraction, remember that “out of sight, out of mind” works especially well for acne, as you can easily cover up skin that has a blemish until it is gone, and it’s less likely to irritate you in the process.  Getting rid of the mirrors also works well, because you may be less likely to check the progress so often.  I always found that when I went on vacation (because I was camping there was little time in a bathroom with a mirror!), my skin healed well.  I was feeling great AND offering little resistance, so again, that combination is the key to your best skin, regardless of how “bad” you think your acne is now—follow these simple and easy law of attraction tips and you will be amazed at your results.

Share now so that others can also learn this easy technique!

Much love and blessings!
