So, I’m back from my holidays and ready to upgrade my life and business even more. Do you feel this way too?
My hubby and I were really feeling the desire to upgrade certain things that we use on a daily basis so when we were in Turkey at our Summer House we purchased new towels and cutlery- their specialties! I don’t think anyone makes towels as soft as Turkey!
I also upgraded my handbag, which I still really like but the lack of sections was driving me crazy! Always rummaging around for my keys at the bottom of my bag was no longer acceptable to me.
I purchased two new bags (see below the video) I LOVE them!
Last month I really focused on showing you how to declutter your life and vibration. Well THIS month my focus will be on showing you how to install more JOY, BEAUTY & PLEASURE into your life…in other words, how to upgrade your life!
Have you every desired something SO much but found it almost impossible to “let go and let God” as everyone suggests?
Then this post is for you!
I am going to share 2 ways to practise the art of letting go and letting God. One is a mindset shift and the other is advice that I bet you’ve not heard before. (Psst…it a theme here on The Elegant Life:)
January is a month where everyone is focused on goals, dreams and DOING.
Plans are made, goal are being set, memberships to gyms are being bought, and the focus is on pursuing, trying and desperately wanting their desire to manifest.
I know this pattern well as it was my “go-to” strategy my whole life! Set a goal, make a plan, push, pursue, obsess…you get the picture! The energy I was giving off was one of desperation and lack – not very elegant and definitely not a high frequency for manifesting!
This is completely opposite from what I do now and teach my clients to do.
And…this is exactly what Buddha did before he experienced enlightenment and true happiness.
Many people know the story of how Buddha sat under the Bodhi tree and awakened, however not many people know WHY he ended up sitting under that tree. He was in the same trap I was in and perhaps you find yourself too?
Watch the video above, at minute 2:54, to hear the real reason Buddha sat under the bodhi tree.
2 Steps to “Let Go and Let God”
Step 1: Surrender.
As you can see from Buddha’s story, pushing, trying and pursuing does not serve us. We must understand the Elegant Principle of the Universe:
As soon as you state your intention, Divine Consciousness sets to work to orchestrate everything needed to bring you your desire.”
The problem arises, for most women, when they don’t see any change in their reality and thus start doubting, feeling down, and obsessing even more on trying to figure out “the HOW”.
Spiritual Women who live elegantly, instead, focus on just BEING & await Divine Inspiration.
Do not attach. I’ll repeat that, “Do not attach to the outcome”.
Should we even have desires? Yes! Desires are feelings and feelings come directly from your Soul, which is your connection to the Divine. So yes! You wouldn’t have those desires if you weren’t intended to experience them!
However, instead of obsessing, spend your time & energy visualising your dream. See it vividly, in the greatest detail. FEEL it. Then…
Step 2: Get on With Living Your Life (filling it with JOY & PLEASURE)
I know I know, I harp on this regularly, but trust me, it’s the secret of experiencing The Elegant Life!
If someone would have told me this years ago, when I was in the obsessing mode, I would have thought, “Yeah, easy for you to say!” It was only when I reached mental and physical exhaustion that I finally said,
Screw this! If success means I have to work this hard and be disappointed countless times then I don’t want it. I’m done. I’ll just do this as a hobby out of enjoyment instead of trying to make it a business.”
After I made that conscious decision I felt the weight of the world drop off me.
I began feeling my creativity come out more. I did things I was too scared to do before, out of fear it would “upset” my followers.
I felt the pleasure in what I was doing again- the same pleasure I felt when I first started that business!
And what began happening? Opportunities just flowed into my life like magic. Calls for interviews in top national and international magazines and newspapers, ideal clients coming to me from referrals...the list went on and on. I learned what Buddha did and I invite you to learn it too…
The more you let go and let god (aka surrender) the more you allow Divine energy to do it’s work and flow through you and your life.
All that obsessive energy will be gone as will the manifestation of things and experiences on that same frequency.
Instead, you’ll be resonating at the levels of PEACE & JOY which are just under that of enlightenment – levels that bring in high vibration, exquisite miracles.
Please share your stories of when and how YOU have “let go and let God” – I know it will help so many women.
Do you know there are certain areas of your life where you need to Surrender? Share those too.
Recommendation
If you would like a perfect way of focusing on your dreams the elegant way and feeling joy and inner peace now, then I highly recommend The 6 Phase Visioning Meditation.
How would you like me to show you how to make these remaining moments of 2017 truly meaningful so that you move into 2018 with a whole new frequency, a frequency that allows you to step up and into your most elegant, exquisite life?
You may have had a year that didn’t turn out the way you expected it to.
Your dream may not have manifested.
You may have lost someone. Or you may have had to let someone go from your life.
Or, you may have gotten a new job! Received a promotion! Moved cities or countries! Whatever happened (or didn’t happen) in 2017, let’s make 2018 even better!
Step One – To End the Year Right
Reflect on what has transpired over the past year.
Take out a piece of paper and draw a line down the centre.
On the left side write, “What Things Served Me This Year”
On the right side write, “What Things Didn’t Serve Me This Year”
Complaining about what’s wrong in my life instead of focusing on being thankful for what IS good
These are just some examples that clients have told me. Your Soul will tell YOU what worked and what didn’t.
Step Two – To End the Year Right
Underneath your chart write this question:
“Choices I CHOOSE to make in 2018 are:”
Based on the answers in your chart, decide which items would have the most positive impact on your life in 2018.
I recommend listing 2-5 choices. No more. Just making ONE important choice is powerful enough, but try and go for at least 2.
Step Three – To End the Year Right
Be sure that you are following me on either Instagram or Facebook so you can learn when my New Years Facebook Training will be.
In this training I’ll be sharing my FULL process to end the year right. My hubby and I do this every single year and it is just gorgeous. We look forward to it!
So, be sure to follow on either Facebook or Instagram or…even better… be sure you are on our email list by opting in to any of our free gifts on this site. The most popular is the Ebook “The 5 Things You Need to Remove From Your Life TODAY to Manifest the Life You Want.”
I’ll see you next week with my December Favourites Video! My November Favourites was very popular so I’ve decided to continue with the Favourites Series every month!
Have you ever felt LOVE so strongly that it feels like your body is 100% FULL?
You may look at your child sleeping and feel it, have a beautiful evening with your partner and feel it or meet a new, incredible partner and feel it.
How about Divine love? Have you felt that? Well, that’s what we’re talking about today – from an Elegant Life perspective of course;)
I’m going to show you two ways that you can elegantly connect with the Divine and in turn elevate your life and the collective consciousness of the planet. Ready?
First, let’s review something about energy.
The Frequency of LOVE
The vibration of Divine Energy is called zero point energy. A famous physicist named Richard Feynman describes it as this:
Zero point energy holds an order of magnitude with greater power than nuclear energy.
One teacup of empty space (zero point energy) contains enough energy to boil all the world’s oceans.
The Frequency of Love is very, very close to this zero point energy, so that is why we feel blissful and full and like nothing else exists when we are in the state of it.
And because we are in that high energy state, we raise the vibration of everything around us due to The Law of Entrainment.
This law states that anything with a low frequency that is in the presence of high energy must rise to match that high energy.
So, I can hear you asking me this now, “Erin, how do I get into that high frequency state of LOVE more often than just every once in a while?”
Two Ways to Get into the Frequency of Love
1) BE LOVE
One of the biggest gifts I received while being a Buddhist student back in the mid 90’s was to meditate on BEING an attribute of an enlightened being.
Every single day I do a specific meditation that I learned back in 1997. I’ll be teaching the full version to all the ladies who choose to join me at a retreat I’m hosting in May, but here’s the short version.
Part of it includes me saying,
Bless me with the love and compassion of an enlightened being.
Then I visualise the colour red filling my body…so much so that it overflows from me…through every pore and out into the universe.
Another way I BE Love is:
During the day, when I experience frustration, during Dubai traffic for example, I ask myself,
How would Consciousness BE in this situation?
You can substitute any word for Consciousness here: Jesus, Buddha, God…
The point is to consciously make the choice to BE LOVE. It’s one of the fastest ways of coming out of low energy and putting yourself into a higher frequency.
2) DO LOVE
Do what you love. Every day I wake up totally excited and energised to do my work in the world – my Calling. Do you feel this way?
Have you chosen to be a stay-at-home mom and really LOVE it?
Do you own a business that feeds your heart & soul?
Do you go to a place of work and really LOVE what you do?
If not, it is going to take a lot of energy for you to get into and stay in the state of LOVE and connection with the Divine.
(If you desire to know what your Calling is, start by viewing these two videos.)
When you are DOING something that uses every natural talent, ability or personality trait that you were given from the Divine you ooze LOVE Energy!
It’s easy to stay in Elegant Flow and feel fulfilled, peaceful and full of bliss in this state.
This week’s Focus:
Spend time contemplating whether or not you are BEING LOVE & DOING LOVE.
Notice the times, situations and people that bring you out of love energy and then make a CHOICE to get back into alignment.
You may need to rearrange things in your life in order to serve you better. What might those things be? Changing companies? Letting people go from your life? Setting clearer boundaries with people? Starting a business?
If you need any personal support in finding your Calling or dealing with dissatisfaction in your life please reach out to me.
You can have a Mentoring Session with me by clicking HERE. My work is very powerful as I am guided by the Divine during our session, and by now you know that any time you directly connect with the Divine, change and enlightenment occurs quickly and elegantly.
Until next week!
P.S. If you know of any woman who is Spiritual and adores beauty and beautiful things, please forward this post to them or Share on your Social Media channels. I desire to serve and support over 20,000 women this year and with your support that goal can become a reality. Thank you.
