Choosing Prosperity

Prosperity Experiment: Days 23 & 24

If you have a bit of time this weekend, muse on these powerful wisdom statements:

"Feeling Your Desire: Feel it by appreciating and allowing instead of wanting and yearning. Now, when we use the word "want" most of you, just the word "want" puts you in instant yearning. Most often, when we are talking to a group of people about what they want, they're talking about what they don't have yet. In other words, wanting identifies what is wanted, but what else does it identify? Where you stand relative to it. So every time you say, "I want something" you have an immediate awareness of where you stand relative to it. So if the "where I am" is dominant in the wanting, then the wanting is yearnful. If the appreciation is dominant, then there's no lack. So most of you who want are vibrating in a way you can't get it because your awareness is, "I don't have it, I've never had it, I don't know anybody who's got it. The odds are that I won't get it." You see what we're getting at?" - Abraham-Hicks

and

"The abundance flows in many more avenues than dollars. And so, if you could focus upon the gifts that the Universe gives you: When you say "abundance", think about it in the abundance of health, the abundance of vitality, the abundance of clarity, the abundance of enthusiasm, the abundance of delicious people in your life, the abundance of loving letters in your life. The abundance of free-flowing traffic in your life. The abundance of wonderful experiences in your life...As you start thinking in terms of this abundance that doesn't have anything to do with dollars -- the abundance relative to the dollars starts flowing too." - Abraham-Hicks

Prosperity Experiment: Day 22

Topic: Weekend Visioning

The weekend is almost here. Will your weekend be extraordinary?

Are you ready to decide that it should be?

Let's follow all of this week's philosophical talk about "choosing prosperity" with an inspired action step to put us directly in position to "choose prosperity".

Deliberately Creating:

Follow Up Butterfly Post

Dear Ones,

Some people have expressed sadness over the fact that the butterfly is unable to fly.

I, myself, was very troubled at first.

Remember, I did not ask for this situation - but I am choosing to open fully to the experience.

There is perfection in the Universe beyond what we think we see.

I did ask for an reading from an gifted animal intuitive to better understand the circumstances - and this is what I received:

Dear Elyse,

The delicate treasure you have been gifted with is a shift in consciousness. Not all transformations require flight.

Not all changes come in 'pretty packages'. The Butterfly Maiden has gifted you with one of her sisters to show you the delicate beauty of appreciating transformation in action, in stillness, in tranquility, in delicate balance of beauty. Your butterfly sister is accepting of what is, as well as allowing herself to 'be'. Her action steps are internal, quiet, and about allowing... allowing your help, allowing her process... allowing nature, in her bountiful abundance, to cater to her every need. "

"a contented spirit soars without wings"... "Watch her and learn to soar in spirit. Follow her internal flight pattern. Watch her morph into oblivion... again and again. See yourself in her mirror. See the diamond sparkle of her wings, her antennae, her delicate center of balance. See who YOU are."

- and, "p.s. just enjoy the hell out of it because she's a lot of fun and is really enjoying the princess treatment!!! "

mary & kirin (You will be able to connect to ask your own questions of Mary and Kirin in July the new "pet wing" of the virtual spa at: http://www.SerenityPathways.com)

So In short, my feeling is, "Who am I to know what 'should' have happened to this butterfly"?

If I argue with the way things have unfolded, I am not being an "allower."

As I am able to feed her and she seems to be doing fine (she actually prefers to be on my hand then to be in the terrarium my son built for her) then I will look for the gifts here.

I welcome you all to muse on this and post once again on the forum.

Warmest,

Elyse

Prosperity Experiment: Day 21

Topic: What Do Wayne Dyer and I Have in Common?

Did you catch Dr. Wayne Dyer in his "Inspiration: Your Ultimate Calling" presentation last year? I saw him live at the Hay House Conference but more of you had a chance to see him in his PBS special.

If you had a chance to see him in action (which is always a treat) you would have heard the amazing story behind the cover of his latest book. In fact, you can see a picture of Dr. Dyer with
"Jack" the butterfly on his finger at:

As of Monday, Dr. Dyer and I have a matching set of pictures.

Prosperity Experiment: Day 20

Topic: How's Your Intuition?

Are you having fun with the experiment?

We don't want to leave "fun" out of the equation.

After all, we promised that this would be an experiment to help you become clear that you can indeed "play" your way to prosperity.

And so, in addition to the online Prosperity Game, today we want to recommend two additional sets of online games.

Prosperity Experiment: Day 19

Topic: Ask!

'My promise to you is to always give you what you ask. Your promise is to ask.' -- The Voice of God in Conversations with God, Book 1

For those of you who have been faithfully (pun intended) playing the 'Prosperity Game', I expect that you have been getting adequate exercise of your 'asking' muscle.

This is a very good thing because few of us have been encouraged in childhood to develop the ability to 'ask' as if 'asking' were an art.

Prosperity Experiment: Day 18

Topic: Celebrate my birthday with me!

A Birthday Gift from Me to You
A new experiential audio. Listen now: http://tinyurl.com/ynq2m8

A few years ago I began a tradition of giving gifts on my birthday. This practice makes perfect sense to me.

When a birthday rolls around, many of us stop to take stock of the year that has just passed. When I pause to take a fuller measure of the gifts that have been provided to me throughout the year, I am filled with a sense of gratitude and awe that threatens to spill over.

This might seem like a paradox -- when we feel the most full we are most wanting to share -- but the corollary is also true -- when we feel the greatest desire to share we are also most magnetic to more good coming back to us. In fact this truth (also known as the "Law of Giving and Receiving" or the "Law of the Circle") is a central tenet of the "Prosperity from the Inside-Out" philosophy.

As Deepak Chopra reminds us:

Prosperity Experiment: Day 16 & 17

Weekend Post: Day 16 & 17

If you have a bit of time this weekend, muse on these powerful wisdom statements:

" In the morning when you wake up, none of you stand out on your porch frantically breathing in because you are afraid that later in the day there will be a scarcity of air. You breathe in and you breathe out and think nothing of it. What we want to get you to understand is that it is the same thing with dollars (or anything else), there is no need to go out and hold your breath in an attempt to hold on to the air in case there is a later lack. You are all MUCH closer to a financial fortune right now than you are even willing to dream about for fear that you will be disappointed if it does not come." -- Abraham-Hicks

and

Prosperity Experiment - Day 15

Topic: Pausing to Take Stock

Well, here we are on Day 15 - halfway through the June 'Play Your Way to Prosperity Experiment' so it seems like the perfect time to check in and see how we are doing.

How is the "experiment" going for you?

Are you collecting signs of the prosperity that has dropped on your doorstep?

Are you staying true to your commitment to "be the chooser" or have you lost touch with your initial intention?

Have you kept up with your daily prosperity habit - either keeping a gratitude journal, reading inspirational literature or playing the 'Prosperity Game'?

I know that many of you have experienced internal shifts and have received miracles in delightful ways as I've read the posts on the Blog.

Here are a handful of the miracles that have been posted:

Prosperity Experiment - Day 14

"We must be the change we wish to see in the world." -- Mahatma Gandhi

Gandhi’s statement is certainly in alignment with our focus this month on ‘creating prosperity from the inside-out.’

We must generate from within ourselves that which we wish to see in the world.

So, now that you have gotten clear about what you wish to see in your world (as described in your personal definition of prosperity) and you are clear that you are, indeed, the 'chooser,’ the next step is to bring your energy into alignment with your choices so that you become a match to what you’ve chosen to manifest.

‘I choose prosperity.’

Can you say that and mean it?

‘I choose prosperity.’

Are you in 100% vibrational agreement with that statement - or do you feel contradictory energy becoming activated within you when you say the statement, ‘I choose prosperity?’

Today we are offering a powerful tool that will support you in moving into vibrational alignment with your decision to ‘choose prosperity.’
