Law of Attraction: Always Turned On
Posted on March 16, 2013 by Beth Koehler, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
You've learned how to use the Universal Law of Gravity. Now, how about the Law of Attraction.
Have you said or heard – “Can’t you try to lighten-up?” or “Just think a happy thought and you’ll feel better.” or “You are what you think.” These are well intentioned words but are hard to hear when you are in the middle of a difficult time. Understanding the principles of Law of Attraction may help.Law of Attraction says “Like attracts like.” or “What you focus on you get more of.” Nice words but what do they actually mean? Let me start at the beginning.
Have you ever had a day when everything went just right? You got that check in the mail you were waiting for; you were running late and you got all green lights; you finally lost those last 5 pounds. When you are feeling joyful, you put out the vibration of joy. Your spirits are high and you feel free and expanded. Every emotion, everybody, everything has vibration too and when your joyful vibes lines up with other vibrations of the same resonance, there is an attraction. Like attracts like. Your happy thoughts attract other people who are also happy. Emotions are the key. Your feeling of gratitude for your good fortune attracts more good moments in your life. Your feeling of love and pride for yourself attracts other opportunities for you to shine. What you focus on, you get more of. Take time to review your day at bedtime and focus on the wonderful moments, thoughts and emotions you have experienced. This will set you up for another great day tomorrow.
Conversely, have you ever had bad day that just kept getting worse? You say you try hard to turn your day around, but nothing works. Your mood is low and you don’t see how things could ever get better. Looking at your day from the principles of Law of Attraction, it all makes sense. Unhappy, stressed, angry emotions give off vibes too. They attract other unhappy, stressed, angry thoughts, events and people. Remember, like attracts like. The more you focus on your bad day/week/month/life, the more of it you get. If you focus on the repeated feeling of failure or lack of joy, guess what will follow you. Feeling lighter or happier seems so foreign and far away. So, what do you do?
Remember, emotions are the key. If you could bring a thought into your mind that feels just a bit better than the one you just had, you’ve raised your inner vibration a little. I’m not saying try to go from despair to joy in an instant, that sets you up for failure. Try to find a general feeling of satisfaction or contentment. For example, bring forth the memory of how you felt when your child did something nice for you, or when you buried your toes in the warm sand at the beach, or when you got an A on a paper. Keep these happy memories in your back pocket and pull one out when you need to raise your vibration. Law of Attraction will go to work and bring you more better-feeling thoughts. You might keep something tangible nearby, something that reminds you of a happy memory. You might keep it in your pocket or possibly hanging from the rear-view mirror. Every time you see it or feel it, you are transported to the moment from your past that felt good, opening the door for more moments in the present that feel good.
Your bad times are not your fault. They are times of negative emotions offering a lower vibration within you. You probably came these feelings quite understandably from your past. Now, do you want to stay there?Law of Attraction is always turned on. You attract negative thoughts and situations as easily as you attract positive thoughts and situations. Now that you understand this, being more aware of your thoughts and emotions allows you to be more of a deliberate creator of your life.
Your awareness and willingness to reach for a better-feeling thought will pave the way to a better-feeling life. Use Law of Attraction, it’s always turned on.
You have the power, use it well.
