The Law Of Attraction Is Always In Effect

I continue to see my own thoughts, behavior and beliefs mirrored in those around me. I am simply astounded at how perfect it all comes together. The synchronicity in life – when you are aware of it – is profound. When you start paying attention to everything and everyone around you, life takes on an almost surreal tone and you realize how much you really are creating things with your thoughts.

I will give some examples in my own life! Yesterday I participated in a one-on-one healing session with a psychic healer via phone. It was an intense 2 1/2 hours! We were releasing old karmic pains, aches, shame, guilt, anger, etc from many lifetimes past. Truly it was an amazing, cleansing experience that I have only begun to see the benefits of! However, one of the things I had asked for healing on was some of my unhealthy eating patterns, which had (for some reason) crept back up in recent days. I found out I had starved to death in at least one past life, which has stopped me from losing weight at a reasonable rate in this life. (That is why I have to fight for every pound and often will feel a strange fear when I start losing weight in earnest!) So, after the session, I felt light, blissful and whole in many ways. However, my cravings for salty fattening food started back up with a vengeance about an hour later! I immediately became despondent and upset and focused my attention on the fact that it hadn’t been healed during the session. And focusing on that made me forget all the miraculous other healings that had taken place during the call.

At the same time I was also thinking about a past life where I had participated in some rather unsavory and downright cruel activities. I continued to turn the events over in my head, wondering how I could have done those things in that lifetime. (I have forgiven myself for the activities in that lifetime, but I was still stuck thinking about how I could have lived that way in the first place).

An hour or so later, I got on the phone with my sister, who was out trick-or-treating with her daughter. She began complaining nonstop about this and that. I began to get irritated with the call – she was out having fun with her daughter and why couldn’t just enjoy herself?!, but suddenly it hit me: I was doing the SAME thing! I was sitting around whining to myself about food cravings and a depraved past life. I was looking for the bad in the situations, when there was overwhelming GOOD to see everywhere!

So, after that phone call I immediately set myself back into the positive, loving and grateful state of mind I tend to stay in more and more often these days. I laughed at myself for focusing on the unpleasant. And it later reflected when I got another call from a friend who was just overflowing with positivity and joy.

It all just reminds me of how wonderful and blessed we are to have people in our lives who reflect stuff back to us. The Law Of Attraction is always in effect – ALWAYS – and when we tune into it, we can start to see how our own vibrations are attracting people and things of a like vibration. People use the Law of Attraction as a means to bring them everything they want in life, but they don’t realize it’s a Universal Law that is always in effect, all the time. The story above provides a great example, and here is another one:

I met up with a good friend Saturday night. We sat and talked for nearly 3 hours at a coffee shop! This person is also highly spiritual and recognizes that ‘thought is cause’. We often trade incredible stories of how we see miracles happening in our lives. So anyway, this friend and I had had a mild falling out a few months ago. She would go through periods where she would ignore texts and calls. And me – I have had abandonment issues since early childhood. So sometimes when a good friend or teacher, etc will suddenly start ignoring me, I tend to get really upset – ending the friendship or becoming rather childish about it all. (I’ve done some significant work on this issue recently, by the way!)

Anyway, we talked about things Saturday night and I told her that every time she goes days without responding, it triggers my abandonment issues. She told me that she knew that, and that she knew somehow if she didn’t respond that I would feel that way. She said that this has happened with many other people too and she often felt guilty and would feel somehow forced into replying to them. Suddenly it hit me… she has had an underlying guilt of abandoning people (for a reason that I won’t get into here, as it is a private issue) and I have had an underlying ‘knowing’ that people abandon me all the time. So, how poetic that we would play out this very scenario over and over! (This has happened about 3 times now in our friendship).

Now, someone could look at this issue and say, ‘gosh, these women have serious issues!’ Perhaps they are correct. But we all have lots and lots of issues! And going through something like this and being aware that it is our own thoughts and beliefs giving us the experience provides the perfect opportunity for healing on both ends. I was – through my beliefs and memories of being abandoned in the past – causing her to ‘abandon’ me. And she – through her own belief of a past issue was sure that she would abandon me at some point. And it happened!

Now that we have become aware of this pattern, we can both heal it within ourselves.

Isn’t it amazing how people in our lives reflect things back to us that can be healed within? I am now seeing it over and over, both in myself and everyone else around me. The sad thing is that we waste so much time blaming the other person, when all they are doing is reflecting our own thoughts and beliefs back to us in order that they can heal.

I am going to follow up this post with another post that describes how you can figure out what your innermost thoughts are and how they are affecting your life! Stay tuned…
