			<description><![CDATA[I GIVE UP ON THIS DENIAL OF NEGATIVE EMOTIONS (LIKE "THINK POSITIVE")

please dont give me any nonsense or BS like EFT, hypnosis, therapy, diet, talking, rationalizing, meditating etc etc. 


i just want to cry, release all my stress & buried emotions through tears. im tired of surpessing, its making me literally tired now and half-dead! theres enought proof that tears release the feeling & stress if you allow it to fully be expressed!

im trying to cry, and i cannot even with effort! i do shed tears, but it always stops and go, stops and goes! this is the simplest way to release & heal, it should be, b/c children & babies do it NATURALLY! i want to just stick with healing Nature's way, through FEELING the emotions! 

i want to cry the anger, fear, terror, sadness etc! those all can be cried b/c ive done so in the past (but then cut myself off & stopped the flow of my feelings b/c no one lets you cry anymore!). i just CANNOT anymore. this depression, which only been about 3-4 years, is dulling me up and i cannot fully feel anymore

hurtful memories which are truly hurtful, are not igniting many tears. its like i have to force the tears out (which doesnt work well). just a month ago something REALLY upset me & triggered strong emotions, but stupid of me, i held onto them (also b/c 2 other girls were in the room with me). i literally HAD TO run out and explode, but i held it in like an idiot. it was a good oopportunity for me to feel the strong emotions and pain, but i held it back (SHAME ON ME).

how can i regain the ability to cry, like a child would? i know for sure, im an emotional processor, an emotional person (honestly im not fond of logic or reasoning, never was) but i seemingly took away the ability to release strong emotions from myself. my parents also hate went i cry & told me to stop or else, so even in my room i am restricted from crying fully & making the sounds comfortably, theyre always "tamed" b/c i'd get in trouble
theres too much resistance in me! what can i do do to break the resistance, and ignite all my supressed feelings easily? 

DONT SCOLD ME FOR WANTING TO CRY i know it will be good for me, the right way to release and EXPRESS myself for once, to be HONEST to myself. to be honest, those human-made emotional therapy techniques never seemed "right" for me, they never truly let me feel an emotion 
dont suggest me any "techniques". they are not right for me..i need to cry badly & i cannot. 

ive cried in school angrily, but then unnaturally stopped (i chose to stop). for some reason, i need a strong trigger for emotions, but what about ALL the emotions ive ever supressed?
how do i IGNITE & LET ALL THE FEELINGS FLOW, without resistance? (the painful memories arent triggering them anymore)

i cant find a good safe place to cry fully, even outdoors in the park people walk by & would look at me. WHERE CAN I GO


any sincere help is really appreciated this is an urgent matter]]></description>

			<title>Like music? practice LOA</title>
			<link>http://www.stevepavlina.com/forums/intention-manifestation/39572-like-music-practice-law-attraction.html</link>
			<pubDate>Wed, 18 Nov 2009 18:14:17 GMT</pubDate>
			<description><![CDATA[I came across a different way of practicing LOA. I love music so almost always I am listening to some good music on my SONY walkman.  I have all kinds of genres mixed together and I so not like to listen to just a particular one repeatedly. So, I always play it in shuffle mode. Problem is if I have to listen to a particular song  then I have to go back to normal mode, search for the song and then listen to it. And I used to do it if the urge for that song was great, but it was quite time consuming.

Lately, what has been happening is, I am listening to Santana, it reminds of Eric Clapton and I say to myself, "wouldn't it be nice if that song comes on?" And bingo, few songs later that song comes on. I was doing this quite regularly before I realized what was actually happening. I was requesting songs left and right and they were being delivered. Then I decided to test it. So I consciously made a request for a song. I got it, except when I became desperate for it. In that case, I did not get it even after searching for a long time. Just to give you an idea how mind boggling it is, I have 2Gb of music, podcasts, french lessons, an audio course on classical music and I am playing it on shuffle. (The number of times it happened, forced me to throw the law of probability right out of the window.)

This got weirder. Sometimes, when I get up in the morning, there is a song playing in my head. No idea how it got there, I do not even like it that much so it's not there on my walkman. But it continues to play in my head. Then I switch on the TV and bingo, the same song is playing. Or I am outside, and I hear it on someone'e car radio. 

It is becoming very easy for me to manifest songs. I wondered why that was. The answer is I am in a state of natural high vibration when I am listening to music (just short of dancing. and I do not have any sad, melancholy songs.) I simply requested a song, did not worry how I was going to hear it and I was also enjoying the song that I was listening to at that particular moment. So unknowingly, I was fulfilling all conditions of LOA. When I realized this, that was an 'Aha' moment for me. Now all I have to do is maintain the same feeling place while requesting anything and everything.

If you like music, give this a try. sometimes, it feels like learning to fly from Hitchhiker's Galaxy. The moment you realize you are flying and panic, Boom you crash! But when you get it, it feels wonderful! :D]]></description>

But my Mom always tells me that when people notice your success,happiness,beauty or whatever they 'cast eyes' on you (which is somewhat like, having a jealous thought) and that will jinx whatever you have.

Every time I fall sick or flunk a test or meet with an accident and stuff my Mom tells me "Oh, you were looking very pretty last night at the engagement party, people casted eyes on you so such things are happening to you".

I was brought up with this kinda belief so I always believed it to be true and it kinda turned out to be true too! Now I'm starting to think that it came true because of LoA. I got what, I strongly believed.

But now I want to shed this limiting belief because it only comes in the way and sometimes makes me paranoid (My mom makes me apply black stuff on my face when I look 'too pretty'). Its just getting silly!

I just wanted to know if anyone has come across this kinda belief system and if there is any truth to it.]]></description>

In it, the question "how long is a piece of string" is posed, and when searching for the answer the presenter finds that (according to the TV Guide) "objects appear in many places at once, and reality itself appears to be an illusion". Well who'da thunk! :)]]></description>

			<description>Hello Everyone!

So, im starting my own hubpage that themes are metaphyisics, magick and mainly law of attraction. If you dont know what a hubpage is, its basically a collection of articles. 

To prove to potential readers i know what im talking about, i would like to take the oppurtunity to take requests or grant wishes. Basically, im just trying to prove my power and worth and my knowledge on the subject.

A request can come in the form of any change really, since im just gonna go for anything and everything that comes up. 

If you do request and get a result i would really appreciate if you would post if you got a manifestation, since i would be using this thread as evidence, if im allowed to of course ;)

Love Seth</description>

Sometimes when I get drunk my worse fears seem to come to the surface, particularly regarding relationships.  I then generally vocalise these fears with my boyfriend, typically in a drunk, angry kind of way.  Saying things I would not under normal circumstances, even though the thoughts and fears must always be there somewhere.  

I'm usually a very level headed person, but then alcohol can change all that!

Do you think we create as much when we are drunk as when we are sober?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[To put a new twist on the OP's question...

What if a family of 4 has spent their entire life engrossed in the energy or "vibration" of lack and one day one of them begins to study IM in their spare time and keeping this to themselves so the others won't rain on their parade so to speak. Let's suppose the new aspirant is a teenager who is technically a dependent so they can't leave. So, now the fledgling IMer begins to raise her vibration and desire things which would be in opposition to the vibrations/beliefs of the rest of the family. What happens? Will the others "keep her down"? Will she raise them up? Will it simply be a standoff and the only thing that happens is that she is frustrated?


David Spangler addresses this very issue in his book "Everyday Miracles". His opinion, and I have seen evidence to support this, is that if what you seek will have a large impact on others it may prove difficult to make it happen. If every person in your life is from the "hard work" ethos and just don't believe it's possible to make a living with ease and comfort you would be in opposition to their worldview. At the least they would say you are "just lucky" at worst they may actually take an active role in undermining your success.

			<description><![CDATA[i do not believe in non-meaningful coincidences, but usually the content of my synchronicity experiences makes sense right then. since i'm not finding the sense from these, i figure i can share them here.

these are both cases of me speaking about something just before it was mentioned on television. first i was speaking about the Wizard of Oz, and then it was directly involved in the final question on a popular game show (dunno if i can say the name of the show here). next, i was talking about false positives in mammograms, after the person i was speaking with introduced the topic, and on the news they reported a major change in the screening recommendations because of false positives.

oh, also, when i left my house today, i expressed a quick intention about meeting kindness while i was out. at the store, the man in front of me at the cashier decided to give me his $4 off coupon. and these are just the experiences i can remember.

i'm thinking maybe this just means i'm more connected than before, or i've been especially in the flow today. but as i said, i am used to being able to relate the content of the synchronicity quickly, and i've been drawing a blank for the content about the two things i mentioned first, so i'm guessing this is more about the process? in case anyone here has ideas about what else this could signify, i decided to post.]]></description>

			<title>The Lost Symbol - Dan Brown</title>

			<description>I just finished this book... and it is a great book! The reason why I put it in the IM forum is because this book explains fairly detailed and acceptable for mainstream what IM is... or how it comes that we can do that.

It is something that I think will open up the minds of at least a few readers to continue looking into this. Which is a good thing in my opinion.

It is of course a Dan Brown book, so there is plenty of action, symbols etc but it is well written (after the first chapter).

Anybody else read this already? Any ideas?</description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hows it going everyone?  I was first introduced to LoA via the dvd "The Secret".  I was in Afghanistan on a military deployment looking for dvds online to order.  Dont remember exactly how but I came across The Secret and the description was really vague but I ordered it anyways, lol.  When I watched it I literally felt like I was reborn or something.  I was never depressed or anything but it just put me in an amazing mood.  Well anyways Ive been working at mastering LoA but its been a tough journey.  Ive been able to attract stuff here and there but just got really "hardcore" with LoA in the last couple months.

My big thing is theres always something in the back of my head, maybe my sub conscience, that doesnt 100% believe or Ill just have a random thought of doubt throughout the day.  For example I was trying to attract a house to buy, but then figured out I needed to attract a pre-approved loan.  My credit isnt the greatest but I paid everything off and am going to use the VA to get a loan.  Well even getting a VA loan is getting tougher and after months of waiting and not hearing anything I started using LoA and got an answer, but it wasnt exactly the answer I was looking for.  I got approved as long as I can pay the VA funding fee, which is normally just added to the loan.  So rather then rush into that Ive decided to take a break from the home buying for now and focus more on mastering the LoA.  

Basically Im looking for some advice, help, guidance on how to better attract things.  Please ask any questions if you need more info or whatever else.  Thank you guys for the help!!!]]></description>

			<title>Me and My Abilities!</title>

			<description><![CDATA[Hello Everyone, I'm new here so please be nice to me :p

I come here with great expectations and hope not to be disappointed. I see that wise and intelligent folks roam these boards and hopefully a solution to my problem can be discovered with their generous help. 

So without boring everyone to death with my background and life story, I would just come right to the point.

I've got certain abilities that are paranormal in nature. How I came in possession of these is a whole different story and not the objective of this post. I've used these abilities to help out my family and friends with great success and have also documented the experiments in my journal to keep records. I've yet to find an incident where I made use of my abilities and the result was not achieved as desired. The target was hit every time right on the spot.

However, here's my problem.

My mom has always advised me to guard these with my life and never let anyone find out or I'll invite in trouble. Its only recently that I've understood the wisdom in her words.

Back in 2008 my aunt discovered my little talent and ever since then has managed to turn my ordinary life into a living hell. Every few weeks she turns up with a different demand for me to fulfill. She's turned me into her little slave genie to fulfill her desires. I've tried to reason with her but to no avail. If it were just her unreasonable demands I might have figured a way out but she's playing a whole different ballgame now. She's started to blackmail and threaten me. She had sworn to secrecy but threatens to expose me now. 

According to her nobody in their sane mind would come for treatment to a doctor who plays genie and hangs out in la la land in their head. I'm not yet a doctor but hopefully will be in a few years. Reputation plays a great role in that profession and according to my aunt when they find out I believe my eyes can cure cancer I would lose my patients' trust and my license. I think she's right here cause who would want to be treated by a loony doctor. I know I wouldn't.     

Anyway, that's not it. A few weeks ago, to my horror, I discovered that she has been taking money from people on my behalf. And not just a few hundred dollars but in the amount of thousands. I found this out from the daughter of the woman I had helped out recently. This outraged me and I confronted her but again she shut me up by threatening to expose me. 

To be honest I don't even know how this exposing thing would work out:confused:. She says people like me carry a very bad reputation and are considered scam artists. There's a big reward for those who expose them and the FBI is out looking for them. Ok this was totally new to me. I don't get enough time to watch the news so I don't know when the FBI started going after people like me.   

I honestly don't know what to do anymore. This is a nightmare. I barely get enough time to eat or sleep due to studies and the only little time I do get is spent fulfilling her wishes. If I wanted I could have gotten rid of her but then I think about the grief my mother would suffer because this woman is her sister. This is why I can't do anything to her and she knows this very well, hence making me dance on her tune. 

I hope someone could advice me on this matter. I had no idea people like me carried such bad reputation in the outside world. By outside I mean the world outside the college environment. I know inside the college they got a very bad rep. One of our professors is always reminding us "Those who believe in the power of thoughts please raise my hand" 

Anyway, that's about it. If anyone of you have gone through similar experiences please share and let me know how you dealt with them. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.]]></description>
