How to Allow the Universe to Deliver Your Desires
Author: Shauna | Category: Law of Attraction, Living ConsciouslyHave you been applying the Law of Attraction to achieve your desires, and are still left wondering when things are coming? Perhaps the missing key for you is knowing how to ALLOW your dreams to come true…
Here is a story full of illustrations about the power of having a clear, open mind when it comes to attracting – and allowing – that which you desire. This power involves your focus on abundance and gratitude, and it applies to all things good, as you will see.
Today I was wishing I had a 2011 calendar, and just yesterday I was thinking how nice it would be to have more fresh flowers in my house…I mused about it as I languished in a beautiful, warm bath and felt overwhelmed with gratitude for my wonderful life. I remember looking around my bathroom and appreciating my pictures, my warm fuzzy bathmat, and the lights that illuminated the room with perfect warm light I love.
I had the thought that if I truly am ‘God, God-ing,’ as Neale Donald Walsch tells us in his books, then I shouold be enjoying every moment, every sensation, since that is what I have been put here to do; to experience all things physical as the manifestations of the spiritual that they are. Running my hands slowly through the water felt luxurious and brought me into acute awareness of the present moment.
This morning I woke up to a glorious sunny day. My sweetie-pie surprised me with a gift certificate for a spa day, which is a welcome treat in the middle of our cold Toronto winter. An early Valentine’s present, he said, although he doesn’t believe in Valentine’s Day! I noticed I felt a little guilty, having not gotten him a present, and did some intentional work on being willing to receive when the Universe is delivering, with gratitude and no other feelings to complicate things.
As I was sitting this afternoon in my beautiful home office, working at sharing some of my articles on social bookmark sites, I felt extremely happy and excited to be sharing things I’ve discovered. I was full of joy and the time was passing by without me even noticing it – a true sign of happiness. I glanced up to see a gentleman parking at an odd angle on my corner, and with a small curiosity wondered why…until a few minutes later he rang my doorbell and delivered to me a totally unexpected, beautiful orchid flower arrangement! What a lovely surprise, I thought, and thanked the gentleman profusely. Upon opening it, you will not be at all surprised to hear that I discovered a nice 2011 calendar rolled up inside, with pictures of more gorgeous flowers. Perfect!
Wow! I just remembered something else…while writing some articles today I was looking for a picture in my files of someone who was happy about money, and had a smile at a shot I love of a woman throwing money into the air. This afternoon, my honey brought me $300 in $20 bills and I playfully threw them up in the air, explaining to him that I wasn’t disrespecting them: I was respecting them! I had totally forgotten about the picture I had just looked at not two hours beforehand…but here I was fulfilling it. Fun!
(Here she is…I think I looked even happier!):

Hi Shuna, nice share about allowing.
Maybe the hardest part of “attract”is allowing. Personally I have problem with allowing, but now is better for me. I can allow my desire to fulfill by itself gradually.

Thanks, Toko, and thanks for visiting! I agree; allowing sounds simple but it really isn’t…until you ‘get it!’
I hold for you a vision of your desires being allowed as soon as possible into your life!

Such well expressed clear thinking on the subject of Allowing. One key is repetition. Mind Movies 2.1 enables effortless repetition.

Thanks a lot Shauna for sharing this article. I also have issues with “letting go” and “allowing” during the attraction and manifestation processes, because sometimes when the results are not showing yet (even when we’ve already done whatever we can to achieve our goals), it can be quite difficult to stay positive and have the motivation to keep going. Anyway, thanks again for sharing, Felix

Damien, I agree. Not everyone needs repetition but for me a vision movie has worked wonders…I think because it immerses you in the feelings of what you want, thus you are more open to just allowing the flow of all good in! For anyone interested, Damien’s link is a review of mind movies. You can also make great vision movies (they come true pretty powerfully in my experience, especially if you put them to music you love and use present tense) with simple programs like Windows Movie Maker.

Thank YOU, Felix, for visiting and for saying that. It’s a common theme…how do we focus on the future when all around us seems to be what we don’t want? It helps to shift perspective and see what is ‘around us’ as evidence of the PAST…our past thoughts materialized. Living into what we want brings joy if it’s done right…it requires that we feel happy and excited, so that helps with motivation. It’s a great equation: feel good = more feeling good = attracting wonderful people and things we love!
