The Attitude of Gratitude Changes Everything!

In honor of the upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday in the USA it is time to explore and tune into the energy of gratitude and giving thanks. Having gratitude for what you have and all that you are is a powerful energy that will change everything in your life!

When was the last time you took a moment to look around you and appreciate, I mean REALLY appreciate all that you have? How about yourself? When was the last time you sat quietly to appreciate and give thanks to your body for all it does for you? Been a while? If so, it’s time to CULTIVATE your GRATITUDE!

Gratitude and giving thanks allows you to have more in your life  by healing what you wish to heal therefore creating a space for more! It takes your attention out of the past or future and into the present which is where all creating takes place.  It sends a message into the universe that you are grateful for what you have NOW.

Think of it this way, if you brought a gift to someone and they didn’t say thank you then you brought another and they tossed it aside with no acknowledgement, do you think you would continue to give them gifts? You are receiving miracles and gifts on a daily basis. Having gratitude for these gifts sends a vibration into the universe.

As an energy vibration gratitude can heal a broken heart, clear communication & stuck energy, bring awareness to the abundance you already have in your life and is naturally steeped in forgiveness.

Gratitude and giving thanks is not mutually exclusive to the positive things in your life. It also means finding gratitude and GOODNESS in difficult times, or for a person who has hurt or invalidated you.

It may not be easy to find gratitude for, let’s just say, someone who broke your heart but give thanks and be grateful for the beautiful moments they brought you. You wouldn’t have had the experience if they hadn’t come into your life! There is a lesson you learned and more often than not, you discovered how strong and capable you really are!

How do you begin changing and shifting your attitude to gratitude? Very simply, begin by writing down the things you are grateful for!  Include gratitude for the lessons you have learned and for those who brought you those lessons. Include gratitude for all that you are and the abundance that already surrounds you! Notice how your mood changes the more you write!

To cultivate your gratitude, keep a gratitude journal for 30 days. Each day write at least 5 things you are grateful for. Be sure to include those things or people  you are having a challenge with. There is always something to appreciate and be grateful for when you look for it!

Creating change is a process and initially change is invisible because it happens on a vibrational level.  That said, these changes ARE affecting your life. At first you will notice subtle changes, then as you continue the process, the changes you see and feel are more profound! You hold in your hands the power to cultivate the ATTITUDE of GRATITUDE! Take time each day to appreciate your loved ones, your body & spirit, ALL you are and ALL you have!

In the spirit of Thanksgiving I want to extend my deepest gratitude and appreciation to each one of you.  You touch my life with your light and inspire me to continue doing my work in this world. 🙂 Finally in the words of a dear friend BOUNTIFUL BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOURS!~Shine Your Light Debbie

Patterns

Have you noticed any recurring patterns in your life?  Patterns are those experiences in life that play out much like an old record album going round & round, over & over again. In other words you find yourself in the same situations responding in a similar way time and time again.

Patterns are different for each person but I’m guessing there are at least one or two that you’ve noticed in your life. It could be in the realm of relationships and love, giving up on something right before complete success, bringing in money only to get hit with an unexpected expense almost immediately,  or it could be that you find extreme moments of happiness only to get slammed moments later.

If you take a moment to think about it, you might find that in each instance you were literally waiting to be invalidated or for something to go wrong. While waiting for some disaster to strike, you didn’t truly get to enjoy what came in for you!

If you have convinced yourself that you choose the wrong relationships, have negative people or drama in your life and/or you will never have what you want…guess what? There’s a good chance your prophecy will come to pass! This is part of a pattern!

Patterns do happen and once you become aware of a particular pattern you can clear it. When I look at the energy clairvoyantly there are often symbols, agreements or energy cords involved. The challenge in clearing patterns is being able to find the underlying ‘picture’, if you will, vs getting caught up in the drama of WHY it’s there and WHY it keeps happening.

Patterns are almost always connected to lessons you want to learn or old energies you want to clear. If you continue to ask WHY or you are waiting for the proverbial shoe to drop, the universe is going to grant your wish  by bringing the lesson to your attention once again so you can find your answer! It is when you look deeper to find the underlying energy and lesson you are learning  that things will begin to change in a major way for you.

Clearing patterns in your life is a matter of getting to the heart of it all. Think of it like peeling an onion. You peel off one layer then there’s another layer than another until finally you get the middle. Life is like that too. 

How about getting to the heart of it first? What if  instead of asking WHY you looked for the ANSWER!? In life many answers are actually found when you ask the right question. Ask the right question to dissolve and dismantle patterns from the past that don’t serve you.

Begin with a new question and thought process to forever change your life! Starting today ask for answers and create a brand new, brighter tomorrow! ~Shine Your Light Debbie
