“Cleaning up your vibration on Relationships”
Filed Under Coaching | 2 Comments
Abraham-Hicks recommends we “clean up your vibration on every subject”.
Here is a quote from them on this, with the Subject of Relationships, as an example:
Clean up your vibration on every subject ….
So let’s say when you were in high school someone mistreated you in some way and you never really got over it. You remember the hurt, you remember the wrongdoing, you remember how you felt, you remember the disadvantage that you took away from it.
But then you left there. Eventually you stopped talking about that person. And while you still occasionally have people treat you in that way, it doesn’t come up very often, and you don’t think about it all that often.
And then someone says something to you that triggers that and now it’s active again. And as you begin pondering it you feel that hurt all over again. That means your vibration never moved from that hurt. You haven’t been thinking about it so it hasn’t been a big player in your vibration. But it’s been lying there dormant with the potential of being activated. And now something has happened that activated it.
So OUR encouragement is that sooner or later you take it and you talk it downstream. You do it on purpose. It might take you two or three days, here and there, and here and there, but you leave it in a whole different place. Now you’ve left it in a different place, it doesn’t have the potential of ever being activated again. In other words, you’ve moved yourself to a new place …
So when you deliberately talk about that subject and talk yourself into alignment about it, now that can never creep up again, all of your power is right here, because all of your ability to focus is right here. And before you know it those vibrations become your dominant vibrations which makes you impervious to mistreatment, it makes it not possible for anything other than what you want to flow into your experience.
As long as anything other than that is happening, it means you’ve got those vibrations still active, so there’s still some work to do.
Abraham-Hicks.com San Francisco, 2-24-07A
So, how do we know if we have cleaned up our vibration on Relationships?
We are no longer pulled into other people’s dramas. We are no longer triggered by what other people are choosing to think or feel or what they do or don’t do. We no longer spend time trying to get others to see things differently.
We no longer feel responsible to make other people understand anything.
We have let them off the hook. We “allow” them to be whomever they want to be and do whatever they want to do.
We have also let ourselves off the hook. We “allow” ourselves to be whomever we want to be and do whatever we want to do.
This principle is actually part of “the Art of Allowing”, according to Abraham-Hicks.
The Art of Allowing is an integral part of using the law of attraction and creating consciously instead of by default. In other words, many folks think thing happen “to us” randomly.
Nothing is random. Everything is vibration. This is a vibrationally-based Universe.
Now, what I have learned by my own experience and by working with others is that we can talk ourselves into alignment (as Abraham recommends) and we can exponentially maximize the benefits by talking about it while tapping with EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)!
Here is a LIVE Coaching Call I did with someone recently that demonstrates this beautifully! 
“I was only trying to help and they misunderstood my intentions!”

Hi Everybody,
I had received some feedback asking for more clarity on Video 5 of “Cleaning up your Vibration on Money” - Video Series and the “tapping” process there.
As a result of the questions I received, I have recorded this audio file.
[To download the file, please Right-click on the link and choose Save As.]
Please let me know if that clears things up a bit. Or if it creates new questions. 
Love,
Pat

Why am I promoting and teaching EFT?
Filed Under EFT - Emotional Freedom Technique | Leave a Comment
Abraham-Hicks says:
“Something that’s really interesting is that your cells have cellular memory, too. We have not said this before, but let’s say it here, because we’re right out here on the leading edge: The cells of your body, since they are only vibration, therefore, truly are emotion.”
Abraham-Hicks.com Alaskan Cruise, Weekly Tape Subscription, 7/8/07B
What does this have to do with EFT?
Okay… I’ll tell ya’! 
And first, I need to give you some background that I have never shared anywhere else before.
When I first saw the movie, What the Bleep Do We Know!? (also known as “WHAT THE #$*! DO WE KNOW?!”)…
I was fixated on one particular part of the movie and that was the part whereby they tell us that we are “addicted to our emotions”.
Huh? What were they talking about? Addicted to our emotions? I had never heard of that before.
All of a sudden, I realized I was not just intrigued by this - I was “triggered” by what they were saying!
In other words, this movie had created a battle in my mind about this Subject matter! And I know that if I am “triggered” by something that strongly and can’t seem to get over it, I needed to look at what that was all about! (Abraham-Hicks calls it “cleaning up your vibration on that Subject).
So, here is a snapshot of the conversations I was having with myself:
“Wow - this addiction stuff they were talking about explains my violent temperament and negative emotion that shows up sometimes around certain subject matters!”
Okey-dokey… now you are looking for an excuse for your pissy attitude, huh?
“Hey! What if it’s true? What if there was something that happened to me, as a child or young adolescent or young adult, that set into place some emotions that are stuck in my body - in the cells of my body - that when other similar situations come up - are inflamed i.e activated? After all, they say your feelings on a particular Subject matter are where you last left them.”
Allrighty then…. you can make excuses or you can make money. Is this your latest excuse?
“Hmmmm… okay, you are probably right. I am just not deserving. I was hoping this would make me feel better about myself.”
Nope. Now get back to reading feel good stuff because if anything is going to help you, that’s the only thing. Got it?
“got it”
Am I the only one that has these 2 characters walking around inside my head, finger-pointing and navel-gazing?
Anyway, I could not get this movie out of my mind! I set about to find out what the heck was going on! So, I read most of the books written by the scientists that assisted in the making of that movie.
And they talked LOTS about the problem. And no one talked about the solution!
What the $@#%&!?
Anyway, all of a sudden, (2 years later) EFT showed up on my radar! (Thanks Retta!)
But, I was skeptical. How could tapping on various parts of my body have any kind of effect? That doesn’t even make sense to me.
(By the way, I was not linking at all what I had been questioning regarding the movie with EFT. It just didn’t ring any bells - which goes to show how often we get our intentions and don’t even notice them, because we are expecting them to show up, looking like something else!)
Anyway, I did my homework from a scientific standpoint. Then, after I was satisfied with those findings, Elon, my husband, and I took a train from our home in Maryland to Connecticut and spent 3 days with Carol Look - one of the best practitioners on the Subject of EFT, in my opinion.
Before investing the thousands of dollars to do this (on all the study materials and the workshop, travel and lodging, meals, etc.) I had some pretty strong intentions to experience some undeniable evidence that EFT works.
And I did! I had a health challenge that I had been plagued with, for 3 years go away - in the course of a couple of “rounds of EFT” on the Subject of “resentment” - not even tapping on the health issue, itself!
In other words, the pinched nerve in my shoulder had nothing to do with pinched nerves, at all! It had to do with something that happened to me that I had been holding resentment about. Once that was gone - so was the “pinched nerve”.
And I saw miracles with the other 300 folks in that workshop, happen right before my eyes!
I immediately came home and worked a bit on some issues that had kept me in a particular (mid) range on the Emotional Guidance Scale on some Subject matters, like Money.
And within a very short time, I started getting surprise checks in the mail! And pretty good sized ones, I might add.
I also started offering this information to others and they started seeing some big changes in their lives also, in all areas - Money, Health and Relationships!
AMAZING stuff!
So, again… there is no right/wrong; positive/negative; good/bad in anything… in this vast buffet of choices we have available to us, in this physical experience!
There are only preferences. In other words, there are only matches to what we “want” and matches to what we “don’t want”.
So, if you are wanting to try this on for size to see if it is a match for you? You are in the right place!
Much love,
Pat

“You could leave the channeling out of it. Call it inspiration; that’s all it is. You don’t call the basketball player a channeler, but he is; he’s an extension of Source Energy. You don’t call the surgeon a channeler, but he is. You don’t call the musician, the magnificent master musician, you don’t call him a channeler, but he is. He’s channeling the broader essence of who he is into the specifics of what he is about.”
Esther herself calls Abraham “infinite intelligence,” and to Jerry they are “the purest form of love I’ve ever experienced.”

What about Bush and the Dalai Lama?
Filed Under Coaching | Leave a Comment
I had promised (or was it threatened?) LOL!
that I would begin a feature of this blog that focuses on the News, in order for us to clean up our vibration around what many folks in our lives are talking about.
As I had said, there are two ways of dealing with things such as this: Avoidance of the Subject or Cleaning up our vibration on the Subject.
I choose to do a little bit of both and this blog post will allow me to look for areas to clean up my vibration around what is going on in the government here.
So, if you want to play also…
- How does this article make you feel? (Please click on the link below and read the whole thing.)
- If it makes you feel less than Joyful, what is it that is irking you?
- And what thoughts can you think instead?
Feel free to share here.
Bush Defends Honoring Dalai Lama - EarthLink - Top News
WASHINGTON - President Bush on Wednesday staunchly defended his participation in a U.S. ceremony honoring the Dalai Lama, saying “I support religious freedom, he supports religious freedom.”
At a White House news conference just hours before he was to travel to the U.S. Capitol to witness the spiritual head of Tibet’s Buddhists getting the prestigious Congressional Gold Medal, Bush told reporters, “I admire the Dalai Lama a lot” and said that U.S. relations with China would not be damaged by his position on this issue.
Looking forward to reading your responses.

It has been interesting to experience the feedback I have received … of course, it is feedback I have attracted since launching this website on how to use law of attraction and the teachings of the principles touched on in THE SECRET Movie and THE SECRET Book by Rhonda Byrne.
Some of the feedback has been very supportive and folks are getting lots from what I have shared here, so far. Lots of AHA moments are happening. Lots of shifts in people’s thinking and therefore, in their feelings… are taking place. And GREAT things are happening in their lives.
And other folks think I have sort of lost it, because they thought I was a diehard Abraham-Hicks fan and should only talk about the Abraham-Hicks processes as THE ONLY WAY to become a vibrational match to what we want.
It could be very easy for me to start questioning my actions except for the fact that in many of the Hot Seat’s, Abraham is coaching people that are health practitioners and they are wanting to know answers from Abraham, on assisting themselves (and their clients) to move up the scale by way of the path of least resistance. The path of least resistance could be anything from taking a prescribed medication to holistic alternative medicine and modalities, such as EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique).
And it would also be very easy for me to question what I am doing if I had not had the pleasure of using what I am teaching here, in my own life. I have also taught it to many others that have had great success with it!
Well, I guess the time is now, to explain a bit about why I named this site, The Art of Living THE SECRET. First of all, here are the many definitions of the word “art” according to dictionary.com:
- the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance.
- the class of objects subject to aesthetic criteria; works of art collectively, as paintings, sculptures, or drawings: a museum of art; an art collection.
- a field, genre, or category of art: Dance is an art.
- the fine arts collectively, often excluding architecture: art and architecture.
- any field using the skills or techniques of art: advertising art; industrial art.
- (in printed matter) illustrative or decorative material: Is there any art with the copy for this story?
- the principles or methods governing any craft or branch of learning: the art of baking; the art of selling.
- the craft or trade using these principles or methods.
- skill in conducting any human activity: a master at the art of conversation.
- a branch of learning or university study, esp. one of the fine arts or the humanities, as music, philosophy, or literature.
- arts,
a. (used with a singular verb) the humanities: a college of arts and sciences.
b. (used with a plural verb) liberal arts. - skilled workmanship, execution, or agency, as distinguished from nature.
- trickery; cunning: glib and devious art.
- studied action; artificiality in behavior.
- an artifice or artful device: the innumerable arts and wiles of politics.
- Archaic. science, learning, or scholarship.
Whew! Did you ever see so many definitions for one small 3-letter word?
And as I perused the list of options, I could very well have picked any one of them and for different reasons, as they are all so delicious! (Which one do you like?)
Since the launch of THE SECRET Movie DVD, I have observed and/or interacted with the various thousands of people that have come to the forums, where I participate.
And what I have noticed is that most folks are wanting some cookie-cutter, step-by-step process to enable themselves to move from where they are this read hot minute to where they would rather be. And as others offer up different suggestions and possibilities on that person’s circumstances, there are as many opinions, as there are folks doling them out.
And bottom line? Each one of us gets to choose. Each one of use gets to explore, experiment and decide which processes seem to work the best for us!Which processes help us feel a bit better than we did the moment before.
My intention is to share what has worked for me and the folks that I have attracted to myself, as my clients. And then, YOU get to open up your box of paints, your satchel of pencils, your clump of clay, your block of wood, your slab of marble - on and on and on, I could go with the analogies - and YOU get to learn what works for YOU in how to use law of attraction and THE SECRET in Your Life.
You are the artist of your own life. Create it the way you want.
And I, for one, can’t wait to see how your canvas looks, as you mold it to what you want it to be.
So, if you resonate with the things that have worked for me… GREAT! Feel free to try them on for size. If it is not your cup of tea… that’s okay, also.
And guess what? Now, you know… right?
Now. you know what you don’t like… which moves you one step further than you were before you knew that. So, the information here still made a difference.
Coming up: Stay tuned for the rest of the story, which will explain why the subtitle of “It’s all about letting Yourself and Everyone Else ‘ off the hook’!” in this series on how to use law of attraction and the principles of the teachings touched on in THE SECRET Movie…
[Special Note: The explanation for the subtitle is now listed below.]

Abraham-Hicks Affirmations
Filed Under Abraham-Hicks | 3 Comments
These Abraham Hicks Affirmations are soothing and will, over time, over-write any limiting beliefs you have. [They are also really good to use after “tapping” EFT (the Emotional Freedom Technique). Just tap for the negative emotions you are having on a subject matter, and then, finish with some “tapping in” of some feel good stuff.]
” Guest: Well Abraham, instead of telling you, you know, anything negative - getting whipped - I’ll just… I’ll just ask. (laughter)
Abraham: Oh, we’ve made our point. (laughter)
Guest: That’s right.
Abraham: We don’t whip you, Law of Attraction whips you. (laughter) In other words, we’re just amplifying how it works.
Guest: Right, okay. So if you could help me with some, a few phrases that I can use throughout the day that would help me get where I want to go. Now specifically…
Abraham (suggested we say):
I’m good at what I do.
Anything I want comes into place.
The Universe yields to me when I ask.
Well Being abounds.
Well Being is my birthright.
I am worthy.
I’m figuring it out as I go, I’m good at that.
I don’t have to know everything that’s gonna happen, I know enough.
I like it where I stand.
This is fun.
This is being fun.
This is getting funner.
I’m more and more in control of my own vibration.
My vibration is my point of attraction.
The laws of the Universe are responding to me.
I can easily set my tone.
I’m getting better at it everyday.
There is no risk involved.
I can wade through contrast and give birth to desires without
yielding my Well Being.
I never get far from Well Being.
I’ve already discovered how to hold myself within range.
Now I’m in the process of fine turning.
I’m a really good fine tuner.
All of this is for fun anyway.
I can’t get it wrong.
I never get it done.
It’s all about enjoying the powerful NOW.
I really love what I do.
I love that there are others interacting with me.
It’s so much fun to interact together.
I like it that we all get to choose differently.
I like it that we are not the same.
I like it that in many ways we are all the same.
It is so exhilarating to realize that this is all here for our
expansion and for our pleasure.
The expansion is inevitable.
The pleasure is our choice.
Guest: Okay, that’s
Abraham: I’m a worthy being.
Guest: Okay, thank you. (applause)”

It’s tricky because most of you have trained yourself completely to just sloppily look around and have kneejerk emotional responses to What Is.
So if you see something really cute on television you say, Oh that’s so cute! And if you see something really horrible you say, Oh that’s so horrible!
But you act like you don’t have control of the remote!
Abraham-Hicks.com Boca Raton, FL, 10-30-06
So, what could cause someone to FEEL that they do not have control over their own remote? Well, throughout my many years of studying human behavior (my own and others) and through the vast studying I have done via books and courses I have taken - it can be summed up in a few words.
You have been sold a bill of goods.
We were taught at an early age that we were not capable / not worthy / not good enough / not smart enough (fill in the blank for your particular situation)!
And therefore, no amount of just plain old wishful thinking and positive thinking can erase those “truths” that you have picked up along the way. And by the way, I am using the word “truths” sort of tongue-in-cheek because those “truths” are actually limiting beliefs that someone else laid on us and they have been passed down from generation to generation, usually with NO questioning by the ones passing it down.
Here is the best example of how this could have happened (quite innocently, I might add as you will see from this cute story):
Once upon a time a mother and daughter who were working together preparing the Easter dinner. At one point, the mother took from the refrigerator, the ham that had been defrosting. Before putting it in the oven, she cut about an inch off of both ends of the ham.
“Mom why did you cut the ends off the ham?”, the daughter asked.
The mother thought for a moment, and then replied, “That’s the way my mother always did it.”
Overcome with curiosity, as often children are, the little girl asked if she could call Grandma and ask her.
“Grandma, Mommy cuts the end off the ham before she cooks it and says that’s what you always did. Is that true?”
“Yes, dear, that true. I always did it that way.”
“But why Grandma?”
Grandmother thought for a moment and replied, “Because that is the way my mother always did it.”
At this point, nothing would do other than to call Great Grandma.
“Great Grandma, Mommy cuts the ends off the ham before she cooks it. She says she does it becomes Grandma did it. Grandma says she did it because you did. Is it true that you cut the ends off the ham?”
“Yes, indeed, my dear. I always did it that way.”
“But why, Great Grandma?”
Holding her hands about 10 inches apart, the great grandmother replied, “Because my pan was only that long.”
Now, I called it cute because this story on the surface is about cooking ham. And it is NOT so cute when it comes to beliefs about ourselves and our abilities and how the world works.
So, what have you picked up along the way and/or been taught that just flat out is not true!?
Here is some examples that I have heard over and over from folks:
“You are too young (or too old) for that.”
“You don’t have enough education.”
“You are a woman and are limited by the glass ceiling.”
“You are a minority.”
“People who take risks end up broke.”
“Getting ahead depends on who you know.”
“Rich people are dishonest.”
“It takes money to make money.”
“You have to work hard to make money.”
“Money does not grow on trees.”
“It’s better to give than receive.”
Did you see that last one? That one teaching has closed the door to more abundance than anything else I have run across in my 30-some years of coaching people!
In other words, if you BELIEVE (and a belief is just a thought that you keep pondering) that “It’s better to give than receive.”… is it any wonder that you give, give, give and Then, when someone tries to give YOU something, like treat you to lunch or run an errand for you, your knee-jerk reaction is: “Oh… you don’t have to do that!”
Hello-o-o-o-o-o-o???!!!!
That is the Universe (God, whomever or whatever you believe in) dropping off your stuff and you are politely and graciously saying, “NO THANKS!”
Anyway, through this series of Blog posts, videos and podcasts, we are going to be addressing some more of these things that are happening both consciously and unconsciously so that YOU CAN BE DRIVING YOUR OWN REMOTE!
And no longer allowing somebody’s Grandmother to drive it, with a short pan!
Much love,
Pat

Hi Everyone,
Welcome to this new FREE Online Course on “Cleaning up your Vibration on Money”.
I am pleased to offer this, as this process has changed not only my life and also the lives of many people I have worked with over the past year or so!
And what is really funny is: When I started reading Abraham-Hicks’ new book, they are modeling using a process very similar to what I have been using (except I have added the EFT tapping, of course).
Here is a sample chapter from their latest book, as of this writing:
I Have So Little Money, with No Improvement in Sight.
Please go read that chapter from Abraham-Hicks and then, come right back!
* * * I’m waiting for you. Take your time. * * *
Great! You’re back! Wasn’t that fantastic?!
Now, what I am about to demonstrate is how to do the Abe process and add EFT to it.
In order to get the most from this, you will want to be familiar with the meridian points shown here. (Carol Look does the best job, in my opinion of showing what this all means.) And you will want to print out the Emotional Guidance Scale provided by Abraham-Hicks.
The rest will be explained in the videos here:
Cleaning up your Vibration on Money - Video 1
Cleaning up your Vibration on Money - Video 2
Cleaning up your Vibration on Money - Video 3
Cleaning up your Vibration on Money - Video 4
Cleaning up your Vibration on Money - Video 5
Then, pop on over to the new Art of Living THE SECRET Forum and share what AHA’s you have gotten! Or the information may just be a confirmation of what you already knew and you can share that! And obviously, feel free to ask questions about it!
There will be more videos provided along with a vibration exercise, and I wanted to get some feedback on the first few to see if I needed to make something more clear before I went any further!
So, please give me feedback and questions on what you see now!
Thanks!
Pat
