So much has happened....

So it is the start of the year 2012....much has happened to me since August, the month of my last post.  I want to lay out some of my experiences so I can remember them.  To lay the foundation, I've been continuing my practice of reflection in the morning.  I still wake up before my family and leave the house and dedicate 30-90 minutes to re-orient my self.  I start the time reading something inspirational, something that gets my vibration in a high place.  Then I spend time meditating, or more often, in a "creative workshop" where I see things in detail unfolding in my life the way I would like them to.  Sometimes I'll spend quiet time exercising after this time, and I enjoy turning my thoughts to things that help to churn up the feeling of joyful expectation.  This took some practice, to be able to easily generate feelings of joyful expectation.  I had to practice this vibration for months before it could come relatively easily.  I feel that my emotional "set-point" has been altered for the better.

Well anyway...that was a bit of back ground.  Some of the specific that have been happening....

For the last year, I have been asking the universe on and off for a mini-van for my growing family.  Sometimes it would feel good to think these thoughts and sometimes it would feel frustrating (my indicator that I was resisting this change.)  As I practiced a vibration of allowing (feeling joy pour through me as I envisioned that which I decided I would like to embrace) I could feel the resistance lessen and lessen.  I got to a point where I genuinely stood in a point of positive expectation of the van.  I looked forward to getting the van without feeling frustrated while not having it, and genuinely so.  One morning during the week leading up to Thanksgiving, during my morning quiet time I wrote in my journal about my jeep.  The entry is entitled "Positive Aspects of my Jeep."  I just felt like flowing positive feelings toward that which I had.  It was a time I was feeling thankful and feeling so much appreciation for what I had.  I did this journal entry and several days later, we purchase our van.  I feel I in doing this exercise helped to release the last bit of resistance I was harboring.  During the exercise I felt it...I felt joy and deep sense of "all is well."  It felt exhilarating to feel how if feels to flow life energy into a direction of my choosing.  So interesting.  I have some other things to talk about...I shall write about these shortly
