In order to have ‘more’ of anything (or everything)
we need to stretch our boundaries and our imagination. I
invite you to adopt Abundance rather than Prosperity as
an idea, as this aligns you with the possibility of having
so much more.
When you embrace and understand Abundance as inclusive
of prosperity, having ‘more’ means having more
financial freedom, greater wellbeing, relationships that
enhance your life, and abundant opportunities for expanding
your joyful expression. So begin by honouring the Abundance
that is always readily available to you – your breath.
It’s free, and life-giving. The breath infuses us
with Life and creates an abundant flow as a life-giving
stream. With awareness, we are able to draw more from the
breath and, therefore, more from our lives. So I suggest
you now take a few slow breaths as this will assist you
to assimilate this bigger idea and anchor it deeply in your
Being.
Infusing new information more deeply into your consciousness
via the breath allows you to hold it more deeply. As you
inhale, you enliven all your cells which expands your capacity
to think. So – breathe, infuse, allow, use.
Then take a ‘wide-angle lens’ view of Abundance.
This means speaking to your inner-knowing to support you
to arrive at your understanding of Abundance which then
paves the way for you to enjoy increasingly greater Abundance
in every area of your life.
Abundance is the stage of integral wholeness where we are
satiated with our own delight. It is the stage in our evolution
as human beings where life ceases to be about external creation,
and is about internal rapture – existing in an increasingly
spacious container where we create worlds, within and without,
that deeply nourish our spirit and make our hearts sing;
where we live gloriously with ourselves and others. We are
Abundant.
Abundance is not so much about what we have, but what we
are and how we feel. When we live in ‘what is right
with me and my world’ and not ‘what is wrong
with me and my world’, we are beginning to awaken
to this possibility. Appreciation for, rather than berating
against, is an essential state of being we need to arrive
at. Even the times that are challenging are gifts that we
are able to harvest as great learning in order to gift ourselves
with ‘more’ Abundance. Being awake to this core
knowing is the essence of Abundance.
So, what does all this mean? When we recognise –
or are willing to approach the possibility – that
we are infinite, not as an oft-repeated hypothetical or
‘spiritual’ idea that has lost its meaning,
but in a very practical and demonstrable way, we know ‘I
am the source of my experience’. Translated, this
means that as I access my joy and inspiration continuously
in the present, I create my Abundant Now and my Abundant
Future.
Taking full responsibility for where you place your attention
is a skill that is easy to develop. Being willing to notice
the effect of your thoughts, is the key here. You may like
to experiment with this for 5 minutes each a day. Just take
the time to notice where you are placing your attention
– what you are thinking about – and you will
become aware of how you’re feeling: whether you are
feeling increasingly vibrant, or whether you’re feeling
depleted. You will then realise how much you may be keeping
yourself restrained, tied to struggle of your own making.
This is where the magic happens: you now have the opportunity
to play the game of increasing your Abundance, simply by
changing where you place your attention.
Remember: You are your greatest asset. Really know that.
Cultivating a wondrous and deeply appreciative relationship
with yourself is the vehicle that carries you forward towards
your Abundance. When you are filled with the joy of exploring
‘you’ in ever-deeper ways, you create ripples
that turn to waves of glorious delight, Cultivating a relationship
with yourself that is founded on ‘inner seeing’
and reflection, holding yourself with gentleness as you
plant seeds of new possibilities, and being excited by the
burgeoning possibilities and the joy that unfolds, creates
the flow of Abundance.
Abundance is a flow of new inspiration. New inspiration
nourishes our imagination, and sets our boundaries free.
The more boundaries we dissolve, the more restrictions we
let go of, the more we begin to stand in our self-determined
freedom. In this way we ignite our increasing passion, which
creates wonder and this feeds our genius. Living in our
genius, rather than our ‘average’ and ‘good
enough’, is the launching pad from which we establish
Abundance as a living reality. It is only when we feel BIG,
brimming over with our self-generated joy, deeply nourished
from the inside, and standing in our now and offering this
as our gift to ourselves, our world, our families and our
friends, that – finally – Abundance will flow
outward and inward in ever-increasing possibilities.
The wondrous state of Abundance is an internally generated
state of celebration that flows as a river in its fullness
(from you) towards Life. This imprint of fullness, inspiration
and joy is inscribed and described within your being, and
imprinted externally. The action completes itself –
Life completes this action – and you receive Abundance
as a realised state of living where you are amply rewarded.
Abundance is now the flow of giving and receiving, from
within and without, that we continuously exchange. Abundance
is experienced as a state of deep nourishment. There is
a rising heart-swell that embraces all in its vastness and
you are ‘more’ and ‘more’ is yours.
Share this ‘more’ and feel the swell of Abundance.
Puree the flesh of 2 mangoes (about 2 cups), stir 1 teaspoon
of baking powder into 225g (2 cups) almond meal, and gently
beat five eggs in a bowl. Combine all ingredients, pour
into a greased cake tin and bake for about 1 hour at 180o
C.
Cool 10 minutes before turning out.
It is my experience that the more I joyously share, the
more flows back to me. So, I offer you this divine recipe
that a friend offered me. Enjoy the gifts of Abundance,
and feel the increasing swell of giving and receiving delight.
Enjoy.
