I Set Boundaries

I SET BOUNDARIES

… but the boundaries I set are for my benefit, not to condemn someone else’s behaviour. If I’m temporarily unable to find a persons most positive aspects when I think about them, I withdraw my attention from them completely until I can.

YOU SEE I LOVE TO FEEL GOOD more than anything else. I love feeling free, I love finding the best in others, I love to give love, share love, create love and make love because it’s the most enjoyable experience I’ve ever known.

The Pleasure Is All Mine

THE BEST FOREPLAY FOR WOMEN … has little to do with her mate and everything to do with the way she nurtures her body, soothes her mind and enlivens her spirit. Feeling sensual, sexy, soft, pretty, sweet, playful and naughty are useful feminine emotions that will entice the perfect masculine attention we so often crave.

Even as a single woman I would dress up and dance, soak in the tub, burn scented candles and do whatever it took to make myself feel ‘special’ … our energy attracts like bees to pollen … and our men love a reason to be out of their minds!

Don’t you agree?

Boosting The Energy In A Relationship

FOUR SIMPLE (Leading-Edge) ATTITUDES THAT BOOST THE ENERGY IN MY RELATIONSHIP

1. I TAKE CARE OF MY OWN NEEDS FIRST … When I’m full of love for life, the people around me are showered with affection, appreciation and praise. I need nothing from them and can give from a totally unconditional place.

“We only NEED something from others when we haven’t been looking after ourselves.” ~ ER

2. I TREAT MYSELF WELL … After studying “Men Are From Mars Women Are From Venus”, I started practicing BEING OK when a guy takes time out from the relationship (also called “going to his cave”). I make sure I treat my body, mind and soul beautifully all the time, especially while he’s temporarily absent and TRUST he will come back even stronger than before.

3. I OPEN MY HEART BEFORE I OPEN MY MOUTH … After working extensively with the teachings of Abraham Hicks, I now do whatever it takes to get myself into my happy/empowered/centered place BEFORE I start an important conversation, before I make a new decision, before we go out, before making love, before I do almost anything at all.

4. I EXPRESS HOW I’M REALLY FEELING QUICKLY – THEN LET IT GO … After many wonderful relationships I’ve found there’s nothing that moves energy quicker than being honest and open about where I’m at emotionally, BUT always with an intention to clear the air, to help myself feel better and NOT make my mate responsible for any of it … no processing, no fixing, no explaining and definitely no blaming … It helps when I start the conversation with something like, “I feel like crap and I just want to express. You don’t need to do anything, I’ll feel better soon!”

Ahhhh, I’m feeling better already 🙂

With so much love,

P.S. What things do you do that boost you up too?

 

What To Do If Someone Hurts Or Disrespects You

QUESTION: What do you do if someone hurts or disrespects you?

ANSWER: You think about it in a different way!

  • Whenever I decide to feel HONOURED, APPRECIATED and RESPECTED … the evidence that I am, shows itself to me.
  • Whenever I decide to feel LOVED, CHERISHED and ADORED the evidence that I am, shows itself to me.
  • Whenever I decide to feel SUCCESSFUL, PROSPEROUS and FREE the evidence that I am, shows itself to me.
  • Whenever I decide to feel any way I want, life proves me to be right. We have all been given that power … the power to consciously choose how we want to feel and to deliberately focus our attention in that direction!

NOTHING NEEDS TO BE THE WAY YOU CURRENTLY “THINK” IT IS: You can think anything into a different place and attract an entirely different outcome. But make sure you do the majority of your “thinking” while you’re feeling good.

A PERSONAL STORY: For the first 40 or so years of my life I was convinced my father hated me. He was really hard on me, we fought a lot and he seemed to spend more time finding fault that giving praise. But while watching a video of a Tony Robbins Live Seminar one day, my entire outlook shifted in an instant. Tony asked the person, “What if your father did those things because he loved you?” BOOM! This was a concept I’d never considered before and it truly, wonderfully, magically changed my life and my relationship with my father overnight. And the timing was perfect. I was able to spend some much needed quality time with him just before he died. That experience was priceless and well worth the wait.

It was the first time I remember having “real power” in my life. I was convinced it was HIM who needed to change. Now I know for sure that it’s me — even when I think it’s not up to me, it is — it’s always me!

It’s All About ME!

With so much love,

The Best Way To Improve A Relationship

THE BEST THING I EVER DO TO ENHANCE MY RELATIONSHIP … is to believe my mate really is the incredible guy I love being with, to pretend he has every good quality I could possibly want and to treat him as if he is the most wonderful man in the world … and he just keeps proving that I’m right 😉

I love to talk about how much my man means to me, to think about the special things he does, to remember all the fun we’ve had, to imagine an even happier future and to catch him doing things I like and tell him how much I appreciate them. I feel so much better when I give more energy to the positive aspects and let the negative ones melt into extinction.

I Laugh At Problems Now

I REALLY DO LAUGH AT PROBLEMS NOW … Years ago we were taught that we should work on our issues, that we had to get to the bottom of it all before we could really let something go.

Ha ha ha ha ha aha ha ha ha … oh wow, that was hard work and oh how guilty I felt for most of my life.

But underneath, I always knew life was meant to be easier than that! So these days I quietly acknowledge the issue then just give it all to God/The Universe to handle for me. When I’m in that trusting state I can relax again, I can laugh at it all, and the solutions just come, it all happens easily, and most often when I’m focused on something completely different.

Elizabeth xox

P.S. I used to call them MY problems as if I owned them. You might notice people refer to things such as MY cancer, MY disabilities, MY worries etc. Lately I’ve found it really empowering to soften the effect and lessen the vibrational impact on my psyche, by just calling them simply “problems”. This is working extremely well and I’m so pleased I made the change.

Sit Back And Enjoy The Ride

CONFESSION #102 … I KNOW HOW TO GET WHAT I WANT

Some people take action, some use visualization,
some people pray, some just don’t know any way.
But for me, I relax and I flow with the stream,
and have faith that what’s happening will show me my dream.

But my dream isn’t a bigger house,
or to have more success,
it isn’t money or love or even to do my best.
It’s simply to comprehend fully, how MUCH I’ve already been blessed.

(I’ve set the wheels in motion, now it’s time to sit back and enjoy the ride.)

One Day I Just Decided To Give Up

ONE DAY I JUST DECIDED TO GIVE UP …

… and I gave up all struggle,
I gave up all resistance,
I gave up all complaining,
I gave up all contradictory thoughts,
I gave up all limiting beliefs,
I gave up all disempowering attitudes,
I gave up all need to control,
I gave up wanting other peoples approval, permission or understanding &
I gave up my incessant need to explain or justify who I am, what I’m doing & where I am at.

I NOW ALLOW … for things to be easy, to go with the flow of life, to think well of myself and others, to only repeat beliefs that give each of us freedom to be who we choose to be, to hold attitudes that serve my expansion, to relax more, to trust my feelings to guide me, to be true to myself, to have faith that everything that occurs is leading me home to an even grander version of love.

CONFESSION # 70 ~ 500 Confessions BOOK 1

I Found It All Inside Me

I FOUND SATISFACTION INSIDE ME … when I stopped comparing myself to others.

I FOUND FREEDOM INSIDE ME … when I stopped worrying what someone else might think.

I FOUND EASE INSIDE ME… when I stopped trying so hard to be perfect, and right, and good.

I FOUND BETTER HEALTH INSIDE ME … When I stopped looking outside to find a cure for illness and started remembering my natural inner wellness.

I FOUND MORE JOY INSIDE ME … when I stopped doing things out of obligation and started doing them because it made ME feel good.

I FOUND SOLUTIONS INSIDE ME … when I stopped reinforcing the problem and just “allowed” the solution.

I FOUND FULFILLMENT INSIDE ME … When I started to fill myself up first and found out I had so much more to give to others.

I FOUND PEACE INSIDE ME … when I stopped making other peoples choices wrong, when I let them walk their own path and when I just concentrated on enjoying mine.

I FOUND BETTER RESULTS BEGAN INSIDE ME … when I started to imagine everything going really, really well.

I FOUND THAT LOVE CAME SO EASILY TO ME … when I stopped looking at what others were giving and OPENED MYSELF UP to truly receiving.

I FOUND THAT MONEY CAME SO EASILY TO ME … when I stopped trying to find ways to “make it” and just looked for more ways to “have fun”.

I FOUND THAT SUCCESS CAME SO EASILY TO ME … when I stopped working for a living and started playing with my life.

What I wanted was here all the time, waiting patiently for me to become aware of it. ~ (NEW Confessions #705)

I’m Making Myself Feel Better

I’m telling a different story to make myself feel better.

This experience is a good thing.
Yes, it feels uncomfortable, but it makes me focus.
I know that when I ask for something, it’s given!
IT’S DONE! It really is!
All I need to do is align with what I want,
get into closer harmony with my desire,
do whatever it takes to feel better,
stop trying so hard to be so darned perfect,
and don’t criticise myself – ever!

Everything’s working out just fine,
the universe is on my side.
Pretty soon this will be a distant memory
and I’ll be focused on something else.
I reckon that help is on the way,
I can distract myself if I need some extra relief,
It’s getting a bit easier.
It’s happening.
I trust that I’m guided,
I’m happy to wait for the inspiration to act,
and I know it’s time to relax,
and let the solution
come to me.

I Found Satisfaction

CONFESSION # 84

I STOPPED COMPARING MYSELF TO OTHER PEOPLE

Instead I decided to love my life just the way it is, to love my mate just the way he is and especially to love myself just the way I am … there’s a tremendous feeling of satisfaction in deciding that.
