Sigh of relief

So January is off to a flying start, but it has not been without its worries & stresses of everyday life. What with the doom & gloom of the current economic climate and the cold weather, my week began with a slump. The effects of Blue Monday certainly seemed to rub off on me. So I set about lifting my spirits with some inspiration from The Secret.

Watching philosophers, writers & speakers talk about how to move on in your life through the power of your mind & your thoughts was very inspirational. The very basic premise is that what we think about becomes our reality. In the words of the great Mike Dooley:

THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS!

Most importantly, it is how we feel that triggers our thoughts. So if you can imagine what it feels like to have what you want, you're halfway there. Sometimes this is easier said than done. Especially when we feel tense & stressed, trying to imagine something that makes us feel good feels like the hardest thing on Earth. I know too well how hard it is to pull myself away from worries when things look bleak.

Last Thursday I found inspiration at the Kitsch Kabaret, whilst watching the fabulous Cate Mackenzie & her love fairies. Cate is a life & love coach, full of magnetism & positive energy. She encouraged the audience to think about what they want through the power of dance & music. We were told to breathe in deeply and exhale with a sigh of relief, with the thought of our wishes coming true.

The idea behind it being that whenever we get the thing we really want, be it a new job, more money, a new relationship, there is often a moment of relief. If we can feel it now, reality will soon follow.

So my suggestion for the weekend... 

Breathe in, breathe out... aahhhh PHEW!  

Imagine the relief you feel when you finally get what you want.
