My Law of Attraction coaching clients sometimes ask me if they’re “making it up” when they begin to receive messages from spirit. “How do I know it’s really spirit and not just my own mind?” they ask.

Here are 2 tests.

Test 1: Spiritual guidance feels good, generally in a calm way. Sure, you may feel inspired or eager or passionate – but take time to feel also for an underlying sense of peaceful knowing or “this is right,” or “this is true for me.”

One of my clients compares it to connecting with Hometree in Avatar. Guidance comforts, enriches and expands you.

Note: if your guidance feels good in an unusually elated way – you feel high or giddy or you have an impulse to take a spontaneous and perhaps thoughtless action – definitely sleep on it and ask again.

Rash action that gives you a kick now often leaves you worse off later – that pattern is more how the ego-mind, with its tendency toward cravings and addictions, might work.

Test 2: true spiritual guidance feels empowering.  It feels like a huge YES in your heart.

If you’re hearing messages of self-criticism, you can know they’re not true spiritual guidance, because they leave you feeling drained and powerless.

Law of Attraction explains that drained experience this way:

Whenever we feel good, it’s an indicator we’re in alignment with our Inner Being, the part of ourselves that’s our spiritual essence. Alignment feels empowering and enlivening.

Whenever we feel bad, it’s an indicator we’re thinking something that our Inner Beings do not agree with. Mis-alignment feels dis-empowering and draining.

It bears repeating: messages of self-criticism are not true spiritual guidance.

Is inner guidance always quiet and gentle?

If you’re in immediate danger, guidance can be very loud. Continue Reading »

When I work with spiritual entrepreneurs as their Law of Attraction coach, they nearly always tell me, ”I guess I just have a core belief that I don’t really deserve success.”

If you resonate with this idea of a core belief that “I don’t deserve ______” (success/love/my ideal weight/money/whatever), pay close attention to the next sentence.

Law of Attraction never has and never will demand that you “deserve” success before you can receive it.

Or, as Abraham-Hicks might say: Continue Reading »

Many people are drawn to study the Law of Attraction because it promises financial freedom.

What they usually discover  is:  freedom from fear has to come first.

Fears of  scarcity and loss affect most of us: we absorb these fears not only through our own families but through most religious and social institutions – and the media that report on them.

(You can stop blaming your parents now.)

Now it’s possible to have a lot of money and be afraid at the same time. The universe says yes to everything!

But when you come to the study of the Law of Attraction with a heartfelt desire to understand how universal principles work  – so that you can consciously cooperate with them – you are likely to undertake a journey through your fears first.

Why? So that you can finally release them.

That’s why many of us turn with great hope to the Law of Attraction, only to find we stir up all of our old patterns around scarcity. Eeeek!

This stirring up  phenomenon isn’t meant to stop us.

It’s meant to help us clear out the fears that no longer serve us. That way we can finally tap into the glorious spiritual radiance and power at our essence.

We can finally live from  faith in spirit.

Possessing that faith and trust is our ultimate desire. When you have experienced for yourself that the universe always supports you and answers your requests, what is there to be afraid of?

Stuck in fear? Try this…

Recently I gave a teleclass to my Inner Circle members called “Freedom from Fear.” The response was phenomenal. I was able to help people see – often for the first time ever – that fear is nothing to be afraid of!

Once you see that fear is vaporous, it no longer has the power to harm you. (I mean truly understand this – not just intellectualize about it.)

Ready to free yourself from fear? Here’s how. Continue Reading »

News flash: Law of Attraction doesn’t promise that things will always go our way.

Disappointed? Keep reading…

Often we have to change a habit of thought (or two) before we become a vibrational match to what we desire.

Fortunately Law of Attraction does always offer us a choice.

It’s the choice to decide Continue Reading »

Giving free introductory Law of Attraction coaching sessions to spiritual entrepreneurs  is one of my very favorite business activities.

In addition to providing a service, I consider free coaching sessions to be great market research – you let me know exactly what you’re looking for in a Law of Attraction coach. Thank you!

All too often these days you’re looking for emergency help for a longstanding financial lack that has now become a crisis.

To any of you who feel on shaky financial ground, I’ve got some advice.

As a reminder, I’m no stranger to hardship or financial jams. In 2001, all of my consulting work disappeared within 30 days thanks to the dot.com bust. I lived in tremendous fear, until I realized what I’m about to share with you.

Ready for the secret?

It couldn’t be easier.

Turn to spirit,  knowing that help is right here right now. Ask for help.

If you’re thinking “oh, that could never work,” then you are exactly the person who would benefit from trying it.

Spirit does not make us wait decades for results. It does not withhold our good because we haven’t proven our worth or worked hard enough. It is not waiting for us to show we are evolved and have learned our “lessons.”

But it does expect us to ask for assistance.

Spirit is all-abundant, all-powerful,  all-loving and all-giving. All the help we could ever want is ready and waiting to be called on.

But most of us are trying to do it all ourselves.

Recently I spoke with a freelance corporate videographer, a man whose business was, frankly, nearly dead.

During our session he explained his plan for financial freedom, and it was a sound one. It also would require time, because it called for retraining and re-marketing two brand new businesses.

Time, however, was a luxury he no longer had. His money was nearly gone, and all he was replacing it with was desperation.

Not the energy that attracts the prosperity and ease.

So I asked him about his connection to spirit (or his soul or inner being or angels – the term doesn’t matter).  And he admitted he felt too busy to connect.

Through his neglect of his connection to source energy for many years this man had dug a himself into a huge vibrational hole.  The good news is he can enter a completely different vibrational reality quickly – if he decides to put spirit first.

Reconnect with spirit any way that works for you. Pray. Read. Meditate. Listen to something inspirational.

Without a relationship to our own spiritual essence, we’re adrift. And struggling.

Ask for help and expect an answer. Now.

It’s highly unlikely a  sack of $100 bills will fall out of the sky at your feet. Though it’s possible…

But you will receive an answer – often in the form of a new thought, an idea, or the heartfelt  sense that you are not alone.

When you feel even the tiniest bit more peaceful or hopeful, you’re turning away from the problem and toward a solution. Then Law of Attraction helps bring more of the solution to you.

“When you ask it is given.”  Do your part. Ask for help.
