Things I have attracted...

Today I was thinking about the perfect item to buy for breakfast this week because I am hosting some friends. I was at the grocery store and I was having difficulty deciding what to get because I didn't want the usual cereal or coffee cake. So I asked the universe to give me the best suggestion. Within 5 minutes the idea of warm baked scones popped into my head! But, my favorite scone mix, Sticky Fingers, is usually sold at specialty gourmet stores. I had zero time to drive to the nearest gourmet store for my favorite scone mix, but my next errand was to go and pick up a bracelet that was made for me at a local jewelry store.

So I parked my car in front of the jewelry store, but the sign in front of the store said it was closed for 5 minutes while the clerk was out walking her dog. So, I decided to walk over to a gift shop right down the street just to kill some time. I walked in and as soon as I turned to my right----I saw the biggest selection of my favorite scone mix that I ever saw in any store.

Of course I bought two of the mixes, thanked the store clerk who rang me up, and then thanked the universe for the great gift!

How cool is that? I get so excited over the littlest things, but it's only because I KNOW that the biggest things that I am receiving many more wishes that I've asked for....

My online vision board...

 A trip to London

 A mediterranean luxury resort vacation

 A vacation at Cap Juluca Resort in Anguilla

 Cap Juluca, Anguilla

 A trip to Ireland

 Yellow Roses

 An Academy Award

A trip to Greece

I want my body to look like this!

Thank you, Universe!

Observations on Harry Potter

After I watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 for the first time, something really hit me when we got to the end (spoiler alert!) and Harry was speaking to Dumbledore at King's Crossing. Dumbledore's character has always been the speaker of truth and wisdom throughout the series of books and movies. I really tried to pay attention while I was watching this part of the movie because I just felt that there would be something there that would be useful in my journey using the secret and the law of attraction. Voila! JK Rowling and the makers of the movie shared two great pieces of advice about the secret (check my previous post).

There are beautiful tidbits of wisdom about the law of attraction throughout our famous fairy tales and fables that guide us to exactly what we need to do in order to truly master the power of our imagination and the power of our positive thoughts.  There are modern stories like, Star Wars and Harry Potter that reveal The Power and The Secret as well! One of the core teachings of the secret and the power is to pay attention because once you are on the frequency of love and what you want, you will be given information and gifts from the universe that are also on that same frequency. I know I will be looking for signs. I always find it hard to "be aware" and "pay attention" because I like being lost in my own thoughts. This is definitely something I am going to work on.

Great quote about the secret in pop culture:

"Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it." Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore
"Of course it's happening inside your head Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?"Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore

What I'm into now

Lately, I've been really getting into jewelry made with natural stones. I have been wearing moonstone faithfully every day and my black tourmaline bracelet to keep me grounded. I've also been really into green amber (which I won a pair of earrings on ebay for $2.99-what a BARGAIN-thank you, universe!). Another stone I really like is carnelian and other colors of moonstone like pink and blue moonstone. I cannot believe how much wonderful stuff I have attracted. I've been so ridiculously happy these past few days. True I've had my slumpy moments but all I do is switch my thoughts to things I'm grateful for and then its like the sun comes out and the universe is beautiful again.

Thank you universe-and thank you to the wonderful laws of the universe!

Things I attracted...

Ok, so I knew I was going to Napa Valley this weekend. This knowledge and expectation made me serious about attracting a free bottle of wine. I said, I want a free bottle of wine. You know what happened? I got TWO!

The key to all of this is expectation. We must expect that the universe will deliver. I knew that the possiblity that I would attract a free bottle was huge since I was going to be in wine country. I must keep applying this to all of my positive wishes and thoughts.

Happy shopping in the catalog of the universe!

Attracting a perfect parking space

Tonight I was trying very hard to find a parking spot in my neighborhood. I left work very late so I thought to myself as I was about to pull onto my street "I'm probably going to have a tough time finding a parking spot at this hour." Just as I let that thought go, I thought "Oh dear." So guess what? That is exactly what the universe gave me!

I drove around a few times and began asking the universe for the perfect spot. I visualized pulling into one of my favorite spots on the street near my house and kept repeating to myself, the universe will grant me the perfect spot.

Sure enough, I turned down the street again, and just as I pulled onto the street, a car pulled out of an even BETTER spot! One side of this street requires cars to leave at 8AM and the spot I got was on the side that has unlimited time for parked cars. What makes it so perfect is that I had totally forgot that I need extra time to get ready for work tomorrow so it was PERFECT! As I pulled into my perfect spot I said thank you so many times over and over! I just love the Laws of the Universe! The law of attraction really works. Every day since I've really committed to this, I receive something that I've thought of and attracted.

Things that I've attracted so far...

Since I started doing more visualization excercises and asking the universe for what I've wanted, these are just a couple of things I've attracted to me so far!

Hello Universe!

Welcome to my blog about the power of the secret (also known as the Law of Attraction). This blog is meant to chronicle my journey mastering the Law of Attraction principles and other Laws of the Universe. I've had a rough go at it and have fallen in and out controlling my thoughts and feelings, so I am hopeful that this blog can help me stay focused on attracting more of what I love. Feel free to stop by and read about my journey!
