Appreciating the money programs!!!!!!!!!

info@goodenergyforlife.info — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 02:07:00 GMT

Right now, I sure am appreciating the money programs which have been inspired by the parent concept of AA....Through Debtors Anonymous, I have gone from living on my credit cards to a solvent way of life....Through Business Debtors Anonymous, I have received support for making my business a separate entity from me and letting it grow and prosper with greater detachment and success....Through Underearners Anonymous, I am allowing greater abundance of persistence in living my dreams and allowing more money.

Through all these things, I've gone from feeling closed up and scared about money, to feeling good about myself and my life in general, including the money part of it. I have (in conjunction with HP and the fellowship; was not able to do it alone) allowed more integrated wealth, more continuously, and expanded my ability to feel pleasure in my physical life.

Now I heard about another money program -- Workaholics Anonymous! I am going to my first meeting tomorrow, and loving how I feel about it already....Transforming the addictive energy in my life always creates more joy for me, and I love it.

These money programs for me are answering the puzzling question -- From the time I entered AA, I could see that AAs are gifted, intelligent in a wide variety of ways, sensitive, intuitive people, hard workers, committed -- all of the things one would expect to result in successful careers of great abundance....Yet most people in AA continue to work in the jobs or the types of jobs they had when they first got sober! This has never made sense to me -- and I asked my HP again and again to show me the way out of this puzzle -- to show me the way to the self-realization and abundant life that is obviously possible for me in my recovery.

Over and over, my HP has answered my prayer....guiding me to a new career doing things that I love, jobs more suitable for me, solvency and increasing abundance -- especially the good feelings and deeper joy that was always missing in my life previously. When I was drinking, no matter what good thing happened to me, I knew that I could not really feel it because I was so cut off from myself.

Being connected to myself and my feelings is my greatest joy.....That and knowing that my HP always has even more in store for me, and wants me to take my most fulfilling and joy-filled place in this world.

Thank you for being here.

Letting go of old ways of action

info@goodenergyforlife.info — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 14:08:00 GMT

I've been realizing that there is a part of me that thinks that action is the way to recover from addictive and compulsive ways of being and thinking....This part of me beats me hard to do the right thing, and to do more, more always more....

I've been understanding more recently that action is not the way! Even a supposedly "good" action can hurt me if I am seeking something in it that is not there for me...For me, it's through the blending of myself with my loving HP that I feel my way to a different orientation towards action, one which reinforces my recovery.

Right now, my loving HP is guiding me to do many things in the area of self-care....well, it feels like "many" to me, who is not used to putting a lot of emphasis on this area...My loving HP through my intuition is guided me to do more of the things I love -- walk in the woods once or twice a week, go swimming, garden and find joy in my plants, take a day off every week and take an enjoyable excursion just for the pleasure of it! (what a concept!), do more fun things...

Today I am going kayaking for the final time this season (I live in the NE)....It is only through listening to my loving HP and being open to good things that this is happening. I've been kayaking twice a month through much of this season -- and that is such a nice expansion for me.

Listening to and trusting my loving HP opens me to new live, the life that I love to live, where I feel good about myself and things which were so difficult in the past come more and more easily to me.

Thanks for being here.

recognizing and healing frustration

info@goodenergyforlife.info — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 19:04:00 GMT

I've noticed in myself that I can often mistake simple frustration for anger....but if I go off into being angry, I can actually bring myself down to an old childhood cycle which I do not want.....

So when I start thinking I am angry (key word here is "thinking" starts to take over from feeling!), I check in right away with myself and consider, Am I really more frustrated...? or maybe pessimistic....? or even bored....?

These mid-range emotions can be the most challenging for me, because they require me to expand my emotional maturity by relaxing into them, being with a challenging situation, detaching from it, and just being me....

Thanks for being here!

appreciation of my day in recovery

info@goodenergyforlife.info — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 20:49:00 GMT

What I appreciate about my recovery today:

It feels open

I feel more open to good things

Events in my day have a more open, abundant feeling

I had lots of opportunities to share love and fellowship with others

I had lots of opportunities to clarify for myself what I want, and to pray for it

I prayed for good things

I spent most of the day on the phone with program people....people I have come to know and enjoy in the past year, mostly through phone meetings....and one ongoing friend of more than 20 years.

Some of the time I really enjoyed it....Some of the time, I kind of felt like I didn't need to be doing that -- no matter how "good" it seemingly was -- and that I would feel better spending more time alone....

Dear HP (whom I call "U" for Universe),

Pls clarify for me my desires about how to spend my time, so that I can be more in synch with what I want and allow it. Pls guide me to those things which feel good and are for the greatest good of all (a good feeling thing!). Pls let it be easy and relaxed, healthy and harmonious, good-feeling for the greatest good of all...

I've noticed that sometimes in the transitional seasons, like fall, I get a bit anxious and do more socializing than is perhaps quite good for my serenity. I am willing today to let it go....

Thank you for being here.

Blessings,

Nancy
