A New Way To Look At Food via Abraham-Hicks

So many of us struggle with food, specifically what we should eat.

Females especially struggle with body image, so much so that talking about what diets we are on, how many calories are in what and how to get the most nutrition to fill up are major topics of conversation among almost every gathering of women.

What is good for us and what is bad, superfoods, what causes cancer, etc.

We don’t want our children to go through what we did/do, so we are pushing our school aged children to watch their weight if they have the least little bit of pudge or baby fat on them.

If you read our blog Our Loonyverse, you know I am a big proponent of law of attraction, and had a huge aha moment – what we focus on is what we attract. DUH! Talk about a derp moment.

I invite you to look at food in a new, life transforming way- a look at food that puts things into perspective, for me at least. It’s not about what I eat, but about how I feel about my body and what I put into it.

This is a rampage of appreciation on food from my favorite spiritual teachers, Abraham (as channeled by Esther Hicks)- when we KNOW this, food and our weight will no longer be an issue for us. Before you dismiss it out of hand, really read it, and see if you don’t feel that it makes a lot more sense than the fad diets, the expert opinions that turn out to be false a few years down the line, the torture and torment we put ourselves through trying to live up to some glamorized ideal.

I love to eat.
Food is my friend.
I always choose well.
I know what to do.
There is a lot of variety in my life.
My body knows what to do with it.
I’m coming more and more into alignment.
It feels good to eat.
It feels good to feel my body.
Food is for family.
Food is for entertainment.
Food is for refreshment.
Entertainment is a big part of food.
Food is for frolicking.
Food is for celebration.
Food is for love.
Food is about love.
Food is about maintaining this magnificent vessel.
Food is my friend.
I adore my body.
My body is so good to me.
My body knows what to do.
I’m so in alignment.
I am so connected to Source.
My Source adores what I am eating.
My Source has inspired this eating.
My Inner Being is eating through me.
My Inner Being is adoring what I am eating.
My Inner Being is maintaining the energy of my body.
My metabolism is carefully attended to.
My machine is functioning perfectly.
I’m fueling it just right.
It’s performing just right.
My moments are powerful moments.
Life is so good to me.
Food is my friend.
Food is fuel.
Food is fun.
Food is so good.
My body is so stable.
My body is so sure.
It is made of up so much intelligence.
It knows what to do.
I am in alignment with all of this.
Life is so good.
When do we eat!?

What do you think? I am going to read this a couple of times a day, remind myself what my inner being already knows, and give up the constant struggle and just let it go and enjoy my life, my body and my food!

Help, my affirmations aren’t working!

What can you do if your affirmations aren’t working?

Here it comes even if you are saying it with positive sounding words with a smile on your face. The words don’t matter. You’ve practiced your words into meaningless jabbering.
But the Universe/LOA is responding to your vibrational output. Abraham-Hicks

Day after day, several times a day, you are saying or writing your affirmations but you aren’t seeing any results. You might think you are doing them wrong, or that they just don’t work and it’s just more of that positive thinking crap that is a load of BS, but don’t give up just yet.

What if I told you that ANY affirmation will work, and it will work for YOU if you can do one thing differently?

What’s that one thing- you ask?

I’ll tell you- instead of mindlessly repeating words, even positive words, you have to believe them. You have to get yourself to that place where you can feel what it would be like if what you are affirming was true.

You can say or write your affirmations a million times but if you counteract your words with thoughts that contradict them there is no possible way that they can come true.

An example would be… I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams. That is a great affirmation, but if your mind is saying things like everyone has it rough in this economy, I can barely pay the bills on time, I wonder if I’m going to be laid off next… what do you think the Universe responds to?

The energy (or vibration) you are sending out is a perfect match to what you are getting back, so it is no wonder things are rough for you and you have a hard time paying your bills and there’s just enough to get by. The Universe always responds to how you FEEL about something, not what you say.

You can change your affirmation to something you do believe, such as I trust that I will create abundance or I am relaxing into greater abundance or if even that is too unbelievable for you at this moment, you can try something like I love being debt free. Do you see how that feels? Your thoughts are not battling that statement because hello, of course it feels great not to have to worry about how you will pay your bills. You can say with complete confidence- I LOVE BEING DEBT FREE. That feels good. That feels like relief. Stick with that affirmation until it is ingrained and you are ready to move on to another.

Another option would be to change the way you feel about your chosen affirmation.

You can ease your way into better feeling thoughts until you do line up your energy with that which you want to create. One way to do this that I have found helpful is to write out your affirmation, then write the negative thoughts that come, then write out your affirmation and again write what comes trying each time to come a little bit closer into alignment. If writing it out doesn’t feel good to you, then by all means have an inner dialogue or type it or whatever does feel right.

Here’s an example: (This is a condensed version- take as long as you need to move from the negative thoughts to the positive ones that will make your affirmations your reality.)

Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts: I barely scrape by, nobody I know is prospering in this economy.
Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts: Just because I personally don’t know them doesn’t mean the economy is hurting everyone- some people and businesses are doing better than ever.
Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts: I should stop listening to all the glum-gusses and negative nellies and start to listen to my own inner voice that tells me I live in an abundant Universe.
Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts: If other people can prosper in these times so can I.
Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts: I will keep my eyes on the prize and every time my thoughts start to echo those of the barely-enoughs I will remind myself that I am just as deserving as anyone else and I too can be wealthy in all good things.
Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts: You know, I am really starting to feel like this could be my reality.
Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts. I’m just going to go about my business and let the Universe decide how and when to shower me with the riches I have stored up in my Vibrational Escrow.
Affirmation: I am wealthy beyond my wildest dreams.
Thoughts. I am loving this. Bring it on.

Do you see how this could work? Do it as often as you need to, remember there is no timetable. As Abe says, you can’t get it wrong and you’ll never get it done so have fun with all of this.

Affirmations: Peace

Affirmations work when we can FEEL the feelings we want to attract. Vibrate the feeling of peace as you say or write your chosen affirmations and you HAVE to experience them in your reality.

I accept the blessed, peaceful, and joyous flow of abundant divine, living love.

I allow all that I desire without the drama.

I know there is no reason to stress- it’s all good.

I relax into well-being.

I calmly accept all the good life has to offer me.

My mind and heart are at peace with where I am.

I radiate love, joy and peace.

I am able to shut the inner demons off at will and immediately feel peaceful.

It is safe for me to manifest my dreams Here and Now!

I already have everything I need.

I can remain calm regardless of what is going on around me.

It’s easy for me to step away from negativity.

What is going on outside of me can’t affect me unless I allow it.

I alone create my reality and that feels GREAT! Ahh, blessed relief.

Affirmations: Joy and happiness

Affirmations: Health and well being.
