The Rampage of Appreciation

    I am meeting over the phone once a week with two women about creating what we want, whatever that may be.  The book we are using to set the stage for our conversation is Ester and Jerry Hicks' "Ask and It Is Given; Learning to Manifest Your Desires".  (It is based on the teachings of Abraham, a chaneled entity)  It was my turn to "pick the process" and I chose the first one called "The Rampage of Appreciation".  Basically, if you are in a pretty good emotional state already, you start to focus your attention on the things you appreciate, and then another and another until you train yourself to notice more of what you appreciate than what you don't.  It trains your energy and your soul to be more positive and in the mode of receiving.
    This past week was a challenge for me.  I worked long hours, had people that needed me to help them through emotionally draining events, and had many "surprises" that popped up along the way.  However, I started the week with my rampage on.  One thing that happened is that I noticed how much I actually do this already, and did it even more.  When I started down the road of feeling overwhelmed and/or negative, I tried to catch myself and think about what I appreciated.  I noticed, I took time, I appreciated, and I felt better.  By the end of the week, difficult things were still happening, but I found myself jumping up and down with excitement and appreciation, smiling more, and being energized.  I also found myself sharing "The Rampage" with three other people and I hope  they heard it and tried it to. 
    In the end, I felt more receiving of positive flow and events, felt happy, and appreciated (life, flowers, my children, calm, alone, trees, air, movement, dance, touch, breath, song...) more.  And I liked it.  Try it and you may, too.

I hope you get your rampage on.  If you do, please let me know how it goes.

Namaste,
Andrea
