Good Morning Monday and Good Morning my Creative Friend!

It’s Monday and a chance to do it all again, even better than we did last week!

How did last week go for you? Did you manifest more money into your life? Even just a little bit is a step in the right direction and it is important we recognize it, acknowledge it, and  be gratefulfor it. You missed it?! Well here it is for you, just click here.

Maybe someone bought you a cup of coffee, or even better your lunch? Maybe you won a free ticket in last week’s lottery? Did you get any unexpected gifts? In whatever way it came to you, this is the Universe giving to you. You are opening the doors and beginning to receive!

The more this happens, the more you begin to build your trust in the Universe.

Keep going with the Surrender Meditation (link is below) every day or twice a day if possible. You will see things shifting dramatically in your life when you begin to give up control and open to receive the gifts from the Universe.

Now I know how hard this is! I was afraid if I gave up control to the Universe it would not give mewhat I wanted but what the Universe thought I should have. It took me several years of baby steps to build my trust up. And what I came to realize is that the Universe’s plan for me is even bigger than I could ever imagine. So it really is to my advantage to let the Universe take control.

Now don’t worry, it won’t take you several years to get really good at this, that’s why I’m here! To help you and get you through the short cuts! I am showing you how to get there in a much quicker way than I did!

Surrender does not mean giving in or giving up on your dreams. Surrender is a releasing of resistance to what may be.

To surrender to abundance, love, vibrant health or more time is to be present in the momentinstead of worrying and obsessing over the future or reliving the past.

This week our focus is on love and we bring more love into our life the same way we did for money. We focus on the feeling of love while we do our Surrender Meditation daily. Then we remain open to receiving love in our lives.

So what does love feel like to you?
Warm, comforting, expansive, accepted, fullness, light, bliss, open, trusting….

Are you open to receive love?

I know a special lady in my life who is an amazing caregiver and she nurtures and supports everyone around her. This is her passion! She loves family and loves being of service to her family. This is where her creative energy flows freely!

However, when the time comes for her to need support she gets frustrated, even angry at anyone who tries to help her. She perceives it as a weakness (by the way, this is a block and a perfect time for her to work on releasing this block is when she needs to lean on someone else, check out releasing blocks here)

Does this sound familiar to you?

My block was around trusting others and I had to work on releasing this to open to receiving in my life.This came from my childhood story, but the story doesn’t matter anymore. What does matter is bringing awareness to the moments I am blocking this love from flowing into my life.Recognizing when I tighten up my energy and then consciously releasing to allow.

This week I want you to open up to receive, and gracefully accept in whatever way it arrives. It could be physical help, just some form of support, a good listener, or someone expressing their gratitude for having you in their life.. Think of any help you receive as if you have a team behind you supporting you.

Angels can show up in our lives through our sisters and brothers of this world. So even if you can‘handle it’ on your own, stop, smile and breathe, thank the Universe and say yes to this flow of love coming into your life.

Remember people love to be of service, it helps make them feel a sense of belonging andworthiness. You are probably doing them a great favor by accepting their gift gracefully.

As we open to love, more love flows into our lives. So if you are looking for the love of your life, or just more appreciation from family, respect at work or improvement to your current relationships this is the week for you!

So let’s recap:

•  Do your Surrender Meditation daily (twice a day is better)

• Imagine the feeling of love and consciously open to receive love into your life

• Recognize and accept gracefully

• At the end of each day, thank the Universe, feel the gratitude and appreciation.

And have a beautifully, creative week my friend!
See you next Monday
Love Janice

Good Morning my Creative Friend,

This week I’m going to continue to help you work on the craft of intentionally creating your life and manifesting a life that you can’t wait to get up to every morning.

Last week your focus was to get clear on exactly how you would like to feel in your life and what that may look like. (If you missed last week’s email go here to read it.)

You were to clarify the 5 strongest feelings you would like to manifest more of in your life.

Was abundance on your list? I get it! I’m totally with you my friend. Who doesn’t want more abundance?

I have found that, for most of us, these are the feelings we most desire: money, love, health & time. And really abundance covers all of them. After all abundance means, ‘a very large quantity or amount of something,’ according to the Oxford Dictionary.

But what does abundance feel like to you?

Think of abundance as anything you could ever need – money, safety, comfort, love, time….what does this feel like in your body?

This is what you will focus on this week. ABUNDANCE and more specifically,abundance of money.

Keep asking yourself this week, “What does abundance feel like?”

You may find words or experiences come to your mind, such as, freedom, appreciation, fullness, ease, expansiveness, adventures, peace, exhilaration, openness, trust, or worthiness.

To manifest in your life requires that you surrender to the moment. This does not mean giving up or giving in, it means sinking into the moment and feeling youressence deeply in your body.

Surrender is key to manifesting abundance in your life. First we surrender into the moment, then we feel the abundance.

And I have a gift for you! To help you with this I have created my Surrender Meditation just for you. This is a 15 minute meditation that will put you in the space of manifesting beautiful abundance into your life.

Sign up with the link below to get your free SURRENDER audio meditation.

*A little sidennote for you – Usually, a lack of abundance in the finances will have to do with feelings of unworthiness in some area of your life. Don’t worry, you are not alone here. I have been uncovering my blocks layer by layer and have been getting great results by digging into these blocks. So look deeply into this and maybe do some writing in a journal to help reveal your blocks. Once you discover your block you can work on releasing it and then the energy will flow through this area too. I gave you the steps in a previous email but you can go back and read it here.

Good Morning Friends!

It is Monday morning and it is the first Monday of June! This is the month that I refocus on my vision for my life.

Summer Solstice means I revisit or recreate my dream mandala and even if you do not have your own dream mandala (or know what the heck that is) I am going to walk you through the steps of refining your manifesting abilities in your own life.

Through the month of June I will be helping you learn exactly how you can specifically be the co-creator in your own life.

So get ready to take your manifesting to the next level!

If you have read my book, ‘The Creation Guild’ then you know in chapter 8 I explain how our intention and the creative energy of the universe manifest physical things and experiences here on our earth.

**If you haven’t read it then as my gift to you you can go here to get it for a 30% discount for the month of June with free shipping!

(Just so you know the whole book is on the topic of manifesting and walks you through becoming an intentional creator in your life.)

Chapter 8 is titled, ‘Trusting Your Creative Energy Source’ and it is all about the answer I held with great intention in my mind; ‘How do I manifest desires here in this world?” Trusting that you are not the only one involved in your creations here on earth, and that the universe wants you to have a life beyond your wildest dreams are super important when manifesting.

And the answer to my above question was shown to me.

And guess what! It is all about vibration!

Ask any scientist what is at the deepest molecular level of any substance on this earth and they will tell you: vibration.

We perceive this world through our senses and our senses perceive the world through vibration.

Everything vibrates and it is this vibration that allows us to see the colors of flowers, smell the fresh bread baking, hear the truck rumbling down the street and of course taste the sweetness of honey. We feel vibrations too, like love, intuition and inspiration.

The source of all creativity on this earth is a very high vibration and it is infinite.
This energy needs to slow its vibration down to become physical on this earth.

When we slow down and open to receive, like when we do our aligning meditation, we open to the inspiration from source. We set our intentions of how we want to shape our life and thereby begin the manifestation process. We physically slow down to raise our own vibration.

As we create the space to allow this high vibration of energy to move through us, things begin to shift into place for the manifestation to begin.

Aligning to the vibration of what we wish to manifest is very important at this stage.

For example if we wish to find our dream job, we need to begin to feel the vibration of this new job. What would it feel like? What would it look like?

Using all your senses to imagine your dream job will bring your vibration up to meet the universe will align you with the opportunities and inspirational ideas which will bring you to your new dream job.

But if you go into frustration with your current job, or become impatient that it is taking too long, then you begin to interfere with the process and may close the window of manifestation.

Feelings are very important when manifesting and that is why you need to be working on becoming the happiest you have ever been. When you are feeling happy and are full of gratitude you are on your way to creating your life.

(**Note – you can still choose happiness and gratitude even when things are not going the way you would like them to.)

The next step is to have a very clear intention of what you want in your life.

So your task this week is to get clear on exactly how you would like to feel in your life and what that may look like.

Meditate, pray for guidance, journal….do whatever you need to do to find and write down about 5 strong feelings you would like to manifest in your life.

Think about what you want and then describe the feeling it would bring you.

For example if you want a new car what feeling would it give you? Maybe a sense of security? Or feelings of respect from others? If you say proud then why? Keep digging deep to get to the core of the feeling behind the manifestation.

The next three weeks will be showing you the specific steps to manifesting a life that gives you these feelings. Can’t wait to chat next Monday!

Find those deep desired feelings this week!
Love Janice

Untethered Freedom

I remember, many years ago, driving home after a hard day’s work in a oppressive office setting. I was driving down a country road as we lived in a small town at that time and there were horses in the field next to me. As my car passed them they started to run along the fence line with my car. I felt an immediate release within me, letting go of all the stress of the day that was weighing me down. They brought me back to the moment and I laughed out loud as I watched them playfully kick up their heels and swing their necks. It lasted only a few seconds but the feeling is still with me today.

In Alberta, many of us are missing that feeling of freedom right now. It has been very dry here, in many ways. We have pulled so much from the earth through the oilfield work, there has not been enough rain this summer in many areas and the farmers are feeling it. Our economy has been dry for so long now and as school is starting up families are feeling the pressures of buying clothes and school supplies, shoes and fees for a new year. We can feel tethered down by all the ‘stuff’ in our lives….car payments, mortgage payments. Negativity begins to weigh on us especially when we go to make those monthly payments. We feel quite the opposite of freedom.

When really these are gifts we have brought into our lives. This is a lifestyle we have manifested and it easy to lighten the load and get rid of those things if that is what we choose to do (not your kids please). But it only takes a shift in your perspective to begin to make changes in your life and bring in the light again. If we can shift back to feeling the gratitude for the lifestyle, we will begin to feel the tethers loosening and the feeling of freedom coming back. We have choices, always choices and how we look at our lives is a choice. Freedom feels lightweight, like ease and flow, expansive and full of adventures and that feeling is always free and always available to us. When we can capture that feeling…then things in life begin to shift and bring more of that into our lives.

Here in this beautiful country we have horses all around us, reminding us of the beauty and freedom we have in our lives with free will. We even still have wild horses and there are not many places in the world that can say that. Drive through our beautiful back country, watch the horses and connect to your feeling of freedom. In Alberta, we love our horses, our land, our big skies and our freedom. When we feel this again, everything else will shift and the abundance will flow again. This dry time is temporary.

I hope you enjoy ‘Untethered Freedom’ and your day today.

We all strive for a life of financial ease but do you know how to intentionally manifest it into your life? Money seems to come easily to others but maybe not so much for you?
Here is what you need to know:

1. Money is energy. It flows and moves just like any other energy. Think of energy flowing like water or air. It just naturally moves and flows and when it doesn’t it becomes stagnant or polluted.

2. You can not manifest money into your life from a place of tension and stress. The first thing you need to do is take small steps to help guide yourself to a place of feeling better and better when you think of money; sort of like climbing the emotional ladder to reach the height of effortless manifestation. When you get to the top of the ladder you will be amazed at how easy it is to bring money into your life.

When you think of your financial situation instead of your emotions and body tightening up, what is one thought that will help you feel slightly better, relieving just a bit of that tension. Here are some examples that may work for you:
• Today, in this moment, I have everything I need.
• This is a temporary situation, it is not forever.
• I am doing pretty good considering the situation.
• I know there is plenty of abundance out in this world and there is plenty available for me.
• Miracles happen every day and miracles can happen for me too.
• I know I am not being punished for anything, this is just the result of the law of attraction.
• The law of attraction does not judge, it simply is a law.
• If this is the result of the law of attraction then I can turn things around for me.
• The world is full of abundance and there is more than enough for everyone.
As you move through these words feel the tightness begin to release and breathe deeply into this feeling. Keep walking yourself through these thoughts step by step moving closer to thoughts of appreciation in your life.
• I had a warm place to sleep last night.
• I have clothes to wear today.
• I have a bit of food and water to help me get through this day.
Add to this list, from your life, all the things that you have around you to be grateful for.
To manifest abundance in your life you need to have feelings of ease around the thoughts of money. This may need to be practiced a few times a day but each time you feel yourself think of money and tighten up, walk yourself through the steps so you move up that ladder.
Money is energy that flows. Money in; money out is what keeps our economical world growing and expanding. Allowing this energy to move in easily and flow out will build trust that it can effortlessly move back into your life at any moment. Grasping and tension will block the flow in. But opening, expanding and allowing will attract money into your life and it will fill the voids as it is needed.
Each time you think of money, breathe deeply and think:

Financial Ease and Flow!
Happy Creating!
