The scratch on the car.

The dog poo on your shoe.

The delayed mail you were expecting.

Whenever you stop and ask yourself “how did that happen?”, you may be completely correct in your initial assumptions. Maybe you were getting too attached the car and wanted it to look so nice that you manifested a scratch.

You could be correct. Then again, you might be no where near the truth of it.

By placing your attention on the “how’s” and “why’s” you’re just giving more attention to the unwanted thing. When you give something your focus and attention for long periods of time, you’re going to manifest more of what you’re thinking about.

Instead of getting yourself all worked up by the unwanted circumstance, remove your attention from it and be OK with whatever has happened. If you observe anyone’s life, be it a Zen master, a Law of Attraction guru or just your next door neighbor, you will quickly see that everyone, regardless of who they are, experience unwanted circumstances.

When you truly realize that no one lives a so called ‘perfect’ life, you can more easily let go of the bad things and start to see it as what life deals you. Life will constantly deal you all sorts of hands. Usually when bad things are happening, they happen to help you grow and to become more consciously aware. So in actual fact, you can begin to see all of these negatives as positives in the long run.

Once you’ve gotten yourself to the place where it doesn’t matter whether you attract something unwanted or not, that is when you will begin truly living a life worth living.

Here’s a couple of additional ways in which you can practice letting go of the “why’s” when something unwanted happens to you next time…

Become Present – Live your life in this moment and not the past. It’s easier said than done, but if you take a second to think about it, NOW is all you ever have. Yesterday and tomorrow do not exist. The only thing that exists is… right now. Right now is all that will ever exist.

Take your attention away from the past (what has happened) or the future (what will happen) and place your attention on NOW. When you live in the present, you have no use for thoughts that are in the past. So the question “why did that manifest?” won’t even be of any significance to you since you’re living in the present and not the past.

Observe Something Wanted – As I mentioned earlier in this article, by giving your attention to something UNWANTED, you will begin to attract more of it. One of the best ways to forget about unwanted things and to remove your attention from the unwanted things is to simply look at something you DO want or something you DO enjoy.

So in the example that your car got scratched, instead of focusing on the scratch, go inside the car where you can’t see it and enjoy the inner surroundings of the car. Take it for a drive and enjoy the feelings you get from driving your car. Do whatever it takes to remove your attention from it (usually means separating yourself from the incident) and bring your attention to wanted things that you enjoy.

This will ultimately help you attract more of what you want, and less of what you don’t.

Bored of playing Bridal Bingo? Tired of making wedding dresses out of toilet paper? Fed up with wearisome wedding showers? We’ve got some great ideas that will add some pep to your party!

At first glance, most gift registries look a lot alike. Every couple seems to be in need of the same items. But you can make the average present stand out by adding pizzazz! If the bride and groom have registered for bath towels, why not include bath gel, bath bubbles, a loofah, or even a cool new showerhead (one designed for couples would be a romantic touch)? If Mr. Coffee is on the list, make more out of the ‘maker by adding the couples’ favorite flavor of coffee, a pair of pretty mugs, and perhaps a bit of delicious biscotti. Think a vase is too plain? Fill it with a beautiful bouquet of the bride’s favorite flowers. And if wine glasses seem too simple, purchase a wine of the month membership for the new Mr. and Mrs.

Toss those tired shower games to the curb! Try playing Name That Tune. Each guest must write down a song lyric that reminds them of the bride and an adventure they shared. For example, the maid of honor might recall “searching for my long lost shaker of salt” as a tribute to the many nights she and the bride spent making margaritas. Have fun with Fill-In-The-Blank Vows. Pass around two separate sheets of paper. One sheet should begin with “I (bride’s name) promise to” and the other sheet should start “I (groom’s name) promise to”. Each guest should then add one vow to both the bride and groom’s lists (I, Gary, promise to take two minutes in the shower so that I can conserve more water for my wife’s thirty minute session). How about a game of WWBD- What Would the Bride Do? Give each guest a card with a silly scenario written down, such as “What if the best man begins running through the reception without a shirt?” The guest must then think of an appropriate response. “Make a toga out of a tablecloth and put him at the front of the conga line!”

Bridal showers don’t have to be all about punch, cake, and cards. Add some flair by creating a theme. Are the bride and groom a “green” couple? Make the festivities environmentally friendly. Surround the guests with nature by hosting the party at a botanical garden or local park. Shower the couple with gifts that give back to the earth like cotton linens, wooden utensils, and energy-saving electric bulbs. Print shower invitations on recycled paper. Will the bride and groom be honeymooning in a special location? Try a travel theme. Invite guests to bring gifts that the couple will use while on their trip. For example, if they plan to tan in the tropics, guests should give items like beach towels, bathing suits, set up a spa day at a local salon, or purchase gift certificates to area restaurants. If the bride and groom would prefer a couples’ shower where they can both attend, consider a bar theme. Suggest that guests bring a bottle of wine, a cool microbrew, or a set of funky martini glasses to help the bride and groom stock their personal saloon. And for the couple who already has everything and would rather not register, make it a charity shower. Ask guests to bring an item that the bride and groom can donate to their favorite charity. Food, clothing, and cash all make for generous gifts that the couple will appreciate and the community will benefit from.

You might have heard your people saying to you “Why not do something more productive?” when you play these memory games. These people definitely do not understand the entire purpose of memory games.

Mind puzzles games are excellent for your mind. You will be able to improve your concentration and focus level, just by meddling around with these mind puzzles. At the same time, some memory games will require you to retrieve information from the past and recall them. These kinds of games are definitely handy for kids who are suffering from Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). These puzzles will allow them to concentrate for a longer period of time and hence making them learn how to overcome the disorder.

Puzzle games are more ideal for adults. These puzzles usually come in different stages whereby it just gets increasingly harder as you reach the peak. It is definitely something fun to do and at the same time, it would allow you to develop analyzing skills and a bit of strategizing skills, depending on the puzzle’s level of difficulty of course. You might not have the obvious effect of a larger brain when you continuously play puzzles and mind games. But you can definitely feel the difference when you are able to solve the puzzle in 1 minute flat.

Some of the popular mind games and puzzles will be – Boggle, Pick-up-sticks, and how can we forget the popular games like Medal of Honor whereby a lot of thinking and strategizing is needed.

Of course, do remember that this does not mean that you have to sit down the entire day playing endless mind games and puzzles. Remember to include a good dose of rest and some exercises too. When the mind gets too tired, it will just slow down the entire process of thinking and remembering. As such, what you are advised to do is to include several different kinds of activities, along with these mind-boggling puzzles. Take a break, do yoga or jog around the park. These exercises will help to rejuvenate the mind and hence allowing a better circulation in the body. Although this might sound ridiculous to you, doing so will ensure that you keep your mind fresh and healthy for use at all times.

The Law of Attraction will yield to you more of what you give your attention.

So, if you visualize in order to manifest more money, you will be giving two things your attention. You will be giving more money your attention (which is what you want), but you will also be giving your attention to where you currently are, since you don’t already have the manifestation.

Can you see the madness in this?

Visualizing for the attainment of something is in contradiction of the Law of Attraction.

That isn’t to say that visualizing your desires isn’t powerful and does not work. It can work very well, yet you just need to make a gentle shift in order to see better results.

Instead of visualizing to attain a desire, visualize for the fun of visualizing. Visualize your desires because they make you feel good! Not because you will receive something if you do the visualization.

This is one of the most common mistakes new Law of Attraction practitioners have when they start out. They see movies like “The Secret” and feel that if you place their attention on more money that they will get it. By doing that, you’re giving your attention to not having the money you want, and you’re also giving your attention to having more money.

How could the Law of Attraction possibly decide what to yield you, if you do that? Instead, the Law of Attraction will yield to you what you expect and believe the most, which tends to be the lack of money.

Try manifesting more money when you don’t need it as much. Release your “wanting” of it so that can actually just experience the delights of imaginging what its like with more money. Enjoy the visualization and allow it to make you feel good. This is when the fun starts happening.

My first ever deliberate money manifestation happened just like this. I wasn’t attached to the outcome as I wasn’t desperate for more money. I also didn’t have any resistance to whether the Law of Attraction worked or not. I simply practiced what I had been taught and let it be at that.

I carried a check around with me detailing the exact amount of money I wanted to manifest. I made time to visualize my desire every single day and really enjoyed it. It made me feel more alive than I often do in “reality”. I wasn’t worried about not having the money, or whether I had it. I was simply enjoying the experience of visualizing myself with all of that abundance.

Within 30-40 days, I had received the plans from no where to make the exact figure I desired. Within 2 months, I had successfully done it and from that moment on, I was hooked to the Law of Attraction and this new way of living.

Make time for yourself and visualize to feel good, not to manifest stuff.

Jealousy is something that can completely destroy your relationships. Where does it come from and what can you do about it? In relationships, there are four possibilities: neither of you are jealous, you are jealous of your partner but your partner is not jealous, your partner is jealous but you are not, or both of you are jealous. The first scenario poses no stress for the relationship, while the last three do.

You are Jealous and Your Partner Isn’t:

If you are jealous of your partner and he or she is not plagued by jealousy, then you feel you can’t trust the one you love. You are suspicious of his or her activities and you make accusations—either out loud or in your own mind. You have no trust and afford your partner very little, if any, privacy.

Your partner trusts you. He or she does not grill you with 10,000 questions about whom you were with and where you’ve been. You most likely interpret this as evidence of how little he or she cares about you when in actuality, the opposite is true.

Your Partner is Jealous but You Aren’t

Your partner is driving you crazy! He or she is smothering you. You love your partner but you can’t seem to be able to breathe. He or she wants to be with you all the time, is constantly asking you questions about who you are with and what you do, may want to check your cell phone and email to learn who you are communicating with, and generally doesn’t trust you out of his or her sight.

The first thing you must realize is that your partner may never change. I have seen couples who thought if they only got married, then the jealous partner could let go of his or her insecurity. This insecurity follows a person regardless of his or her marital status. If a person has a burning desire to change his or her jealous demeanor, then he or she must set about completing the necessary work to accomplish that but a marriage license is not the cure to jealousy.

So ask yourself, if your partner never changes and continues these jealous behaviors forever, is he or she still the person you want to be with? If the answer is yes, then you need to discover coping methods of being able to handle the constant suspicion and intrusions into your life. If the answer is no, then you need to devise a plan for ending, or at least diminishing the time you invest in the relationship.

Both of You are Jealous

In this situation, I would assess that both of you are functioning from either the need for power or the need for survival. You are either scared of being alone or you want to control the behavior of your loved one—neither of which is particularly healthy.

Your relationship could potentially last a long time. Since both of you are operating from the same place, you would not likely recognize the dysfunction. However, if you want more from your relationship, then you need to be able to visualize what life would be like if you were in a relationship with your partner or someone else and trust existed between you. You would need to recognize that there is something better and consciously set out to engage in behavior that will attract that kind of trust into your life.

When There’s been Cheating in the Past

If part of the problem is that one or both of you have already been unfaithful in the past, then some legitimate trust issues exist. If you were the one who cheated, attempt to understand your partner’s insecurity and suspicions at least initially. I have recommended that the person who has cheated allow his or her life to be an open book to his or her partner. Allow him or her access to your comings and goings to help him or her develop that security in your relationship again.

If you were the one whose partner cheated, then you are not off the hook. If your partner affords you the opportunity to really know what he or she is doing at all times in an attempt to reestablish trust between you, then you need to equally cooperate in your attempt to regain trust. You must be open to the idea that your partner is making amends and is truly sorry for his or her indiscretion. You need to give up your desire to punish or make him or her pay, and really get down to the business of rebuilding your relationship. Let go of your resentment and move forward.

Real love does not operate on the scarcity principle. In order to receive love, you must willingly give it. If you love someone and you want peace of mind, trust is the only way to go. If you later learn that your partner was unfaithful to you, then you have a decision to make but the surest way to ensure your partner cheats is to continue to accuse him or her of it.

Jealousy is like a cancer invading your relationship. It has the potential of being lethal. Do not allow jealousy to erode the trust, love and respect of your relationship.

Extending your faith and trust is a gift you give the person you love. If he or she is a person of honor, the gift will be protected and well cared for. If he or she is not, it will not be long and you will discover your partner’s true character. And when you do, you will have a decision to make. In the meantime, live in trust.

Sugared almonds are no longer such a sweet treat and personalized matchbooks long ago lost their flare. Today’s couples are opting for more inventive, one-of-a-kind items to place near guests’ place cards. If you’re looking for fun and alternative favor options, look no further- we’ve compiled a list of the top twenty!

1. Edible menus: with a dark chocolate background and white chocolate lettering, this delicious bill of fare is sure to delight.

2. A “candy bar”: another tasty option is to set up a candy bar at the reception. Fill glasses with jelly beans, chocolates, caramels, and lollipops and let guests load their goody bags.

3. Potted plants: who needs a floral centerpiece when the favors serve as setting enough? Herbs like basil and thyme are terrific, as are flowers like African violets or miniature roses.

4. Christmas ornaments: if you plan to wed this winter, add to your guests’ tree adornment with this adorable token.

5. Bottles of bubbly: many websites, like favorlabel.com and myownlabels.com, now give couples the opportunity to personalize bottles of beer, wine, and champagne. Sparkling cider and root beer make great gift alternatives for guests under 21.

6. Homemade treats: cookies, cupcakes, jams, and jellies are all excellent endowments. Attach your family’s recipe for added enjoyment.

7. Photo coasters: guests can preserve their wedding memories, or other fun photos, in clear glass coasters.

8. Water bottles: wet your guests’ whistles with personalized or monogrammed water bottles.

9. Honey pots: straight from the hive, party goers will delight in these bee-utiful bottles of sugary goodness.

10. Olive oil: add a little spice by pairing a small bottle of oil with a tasty jarred herb.

11. Music from the heart: compile a CD of romantic songs (particularly ones that you’ve requested be played at the reception) for your guests’ listening pleasure.

12. Miniature frames: small picture frames can double as escort card holders, and they can hold party goers’ memories long after the party is over.

13. Fortune cookies: these neat treats can be dipped in chocolate or fruity flavors and hold any clever message you’d like.

14. Scented candles: light the night with fragrance and romance.

15. Playing cards: odds are, guests will have tons of fun with these personalized party favors.

16. Program fans: keep your guests cool during the ceremony and afterward by attaching your wedding program to a pretty fabric or wicker fan.

17. Tea time: treat guests to your favorite type of tea by presenting them with small bags to enjoy.

18. Cookie cutters: carved into cute shapes like hearts or lips, these favors will be a real party pleaser.

19. Special scrapbooks: bestow these blank books to guests, but add a personalized thank-you note on the last page.

20. A delightful donation: if you’re opting to donate to a charity in lieu of wedding favors, why not give your guests a small token to remind them of how they can contribute as well? If your donation has gone to the ASPCA, PETA, or another animal organization, attach a dog biscuit (real or in cookie shape). Or if breast cancer awareness is your cause, tie a pink ribbon to a card with your charity’s website information.

Look at these three questions to see if you would be considered a pleasure junky:

* Do you find yourself making long-term goals and then sabotaging them by not taking the required action to accomplish them? An example would be deciding you want to pay off your credit cards on an accelerated plan but you keep buying things you don’t need and make payments substantially less than you had planned. Another example might be you have a diet plan that includes only eating when you are hungry. However, you find yourself often making plans with friends to go out to eat and you find yourself snacking when you are bored, lonely or anxious or as a reward to yourself.

* Do you find yourself frequently needing to reward yourself in order to feel good about yourself? Do you often do things you have told yourself you wouldn’t do? For example, do you reward yourself with a new outfit for weight loss when you promised yourself you would wait until you went down two sizes instead of one? Do you reward yourself with a hot fudge sundae when you have lost a certain amount of weight?

* Do you find yourself often seeking pleasure in things outside yourself? Do you look toward people, places, things and accomplishments to make you truly happy? Are you waiting for the right relationship, your children to be grown, your advance degree, your house to be paid off or your retirement to be happy? Do you drag yourself through the week waiting for the pleasures of the weekend?

People who are looking to be truly happy have to complete the job from the inside out. Authentic happiness does not come from people, things and accomplishments. Happiness comes from how you are in the world. Happiness is generated from your core when you live in the moment by being fully present, are grateful for what you have and have the desire and ability to find the gift or the lesson in all things. That is the key to being authentically happy.

You will never achieve true happiness by being a pleasure junky. Let’s look at each behavior individually.

* Live in the Moment: Much is said about living in the moment but how do you actually do it? You need to become conscious, guarding against thoughts of the past or future and constantly bring yourself back to the current moment, which is all there really is of reality anyway. Most of us waste our “now” moments regretting or reminiscing about the past or worrying or planning for the future. When you engage in those activities, you miss the only real moment you have—right now.

* Live in Gratitude: No matter what is happening in your life, living in gratitude is possible. As my friend says, “Any day above ground is a good day.” As long as you are still here, you can find things to be grateful for. Start with being grateful for the air you breathe, the sunshine on your face, the rain that nourishes growth, your shelter that protects you from the elements. Once you start with the little things, you can easily generate to the bigger things. Instead of being upset about the money you owe, be grateful you have a credit line to have it available to you. Instead of being angry with a friend, be thankful to have friends in your life. Instead of wishing for a better job, be grateful to have the one you’ve got.

* Find the Lesson or Gift: No matter what happens to you in your life, if you have the mind to look for it, you can find a lesson or a gift. Growth comes from pain. What terrible thing has happened to you in your life and what was the positive gain you received from it? My husband died at 37 years-old but I had the gift of being able to say goodbye and my children had the gift of his time after he stopped working. You can find the positive in all situations if you have the mind to seek it.

In order to find authentic happiness from the inside-out, you must be willing to avoid some moments of pleasure. You need to monitor yourself to isure you are living in the moment, living in gratitude and find the lesson or the gift. Recognize that happiness is not elusive at all. It lives inside of you and you can have access to it whenever you want. You just need to accept that it is there. The process of Inside Out Empowerment can show you how.

Getting Back Together Soon!

When you are considering how to get back together, don’t let the fires cool down all the way! One of the things that you will find is that the longer it takes to get back together, the less likely that it will happen. While some time to cool off and think about things is very important, keep in mind that you shouldn’t let it go for too long. Keep in mind the fact that you don’t want you or your significant other to get too comfortable being alone!

Repair relationship angst

Seriously think about what went wrong and how to fix it. If you get back together at all, you need to think about the breakup as being something that was something of a warning sign. Don’t let the warning go unheeded and make sure that your relationship can stand up to the problems that it was experiencing; this is the true sign that you are going to stay together.

Call In Your Friends.

Chances are, when you are looking to get back together, your friends will end up being your best allies or your worst enemies, You’ll find that there are a number of different things that you should keep in mind when you are considering getting back together, so think about what your friends have to say. You’ll find that they might have some great advice, and if they are mutual friends, they can keep you on top of what is going on with your significant other.

Talk It Out

When you are getting back together, one thing that you cannot avoid is communication. Find a way to sit down and have a chat with the person you broke up with, and take the time to really explain yourself and your needs. You’ll find that the more you talk about the things that went wrong, the more time you can spend talking about how to make things right; don’t let this opportunity slide by.

Change and Stick With It.

If you are looking to repair relationship problems, remember that the main point is to change and then to make sure that that change is something that you can stick with. It doesn’t do anyone any good if you change and then can’t commit, you’ll just be back where you started. Make sure that the changes you make are permanent and that you can stick with them.

For many people, the idea of repairing a relationship is a lot of work, but keep in mind that it is good work to do! Don’t let the person who’s perfect for you slip away just because you couldn’t make some changes!

Have you made a decision on how to repair relationship conflicts yet? We can get you on the path to getting back together and start moving you in the right direction. Visit us today to see how we can help.

It’s never too early, or late, to create a wedding registry. Whether you’ve just gotten engaged or will tie the knot in a few weeks, now is the time to get your list together. Family and friends may want to mail you a gift before the wedding, or they may personally present you with a package at your engagement party, shower, or reception. Crafting a registry may seem a bit overwhelming, but not to worry- we’ve got five essential tips that will take you through the process from start to finish.

1. What do you need, what do you want?

Some items on your list may be things you’ve never owned before but would love to have; an espresso machine, an outdoor grill, or a plasma TV. Some items may be essential to stocking your new home; towels and linens, a bake ware set, or a microwave oven. And some items that you currently have may be in need of replacing; that mismatched set of dishes, those worn out pots and pans, or that pair of champagne glasses that seems to have become a single.

2. Choose multiple stores.

Give your guests options by registering at several different places. Create lists at two or three stores of varying price and product. For example, you may register at a department store (such as Bloomingdale’s or Macy’s) for fine china and other high ticket items, at a discount store (such as Target or Wal-Mart) for more frugal alternatives, and at a specialty store (such as Bed, Bath, and Beyond or Crate and Barrel) for specific items like linens, bath accessories, and storage containers.

3. Ask about rules and returns.

Of the several stores you choose, be aware of each of the stores’ perks and policies. How long will your registry remain active after the wedding? Can guests shop online as well as in the store? Do you need a gift receipt in order to return the item? Once the item is returned, will you receive cash or a store credit? Once your wedding day has come and gone, will you receive a discount on items not purchased from your registry? These are all valid questions to present to your preferred registry locations.

4. It’s a couples’ thing.

Now is not the time for parental participation. Though mom may be able to suggest how many place settings to register for, the particular pattern of your plates should be picked out by you and your partner. After all, the two of you will be the ones living with it! Creating your registry is a fun bonding activity. You’ll have the opportunity to talk about the future and shop without spending a dime!

5. Easy etiquette.

There are some essential rules to remember when registering. To begin, never include your registry information on your wedding invitations- it’s bad form. Registry information can, however, be incorporated in a shower invitation as this event will be thrown for you by a friend or family member. Otherwise, word of mouth is the best way to inform guests about your gift giving preferences. Also, keep an eye on the number of items that have been purchased from your registry. If only a handful of gifts remain before the final weeks of the wedding, consider adding a few more to the list. This will give guests more options and give you a chance to include that cool new clock you’ve had your eye on! Finally, remember to give thanks. Write a note within 48-hours for any gifts received before the wedding. Once you’ve returned from the honeymoon, make sure your remaining thank-you cards are mailed no more than one month afterward.

There actually has been a significant amount of hype around the “stop smoking pill” in recent times. Promoters of the product contend that the pill represents an “easy way” for a person to stop smoking. The contention is raised that smoking cessation, kicking the habit, can be a breeze.

Of course, as with so many products associated with stopping smoking that have entered the market with great fanfare, when it comes to the stop smoking pill, a closer examination of the reality of the product reveals something different. The bottom line when it comes to quiting smoking, consideration must be given not only to stopping in the first instance but to staying away from cigarettes into the future. It is one thing to quit and something entirely different all together to stay away from smokes in the future.

When all is said and done, the pill that has been heralded as the easy way to stop smoking really only attacks part of the smoking problem in the first instance. While it is true that nicotine and what many experts term nicotine addiction plays a significant role in what compels an individual to smoke in the first instance, it is not the only factor at play. The reality is that nicotine reliance or even addiction is one of the compulsions that draws an individual to smoking.

Beyond a physiological attraction to or reliance upon nicotine, people smoke for additional reasons that include everything from it being an ingrained habit to the fact that for many individuals smoking serves as a psychological crutch for one reason or another. Simply, the typical person smokes for a combination of reasons.

In the end, the so-called stop smoking pill really only deals with the matter of a person’s reliance or perhaps dependence upon nicotine. The pill simply does not address any other issues that tie people up in a smoking habit. In order to stop smoking successfully in the first instance, and in order to “stay stopped,” it is crucial that all of the factors that caused a person to pick up a pack of cigarettes be addressed through a comprehensive cessation process.

Of course, there have been instances in which the smoking cessation pill has resulted in an individual giving up smoking, there is an ever growing list of men and women who used the pill to “stop smoking” only to take up the habit again with a literal vengeance not long after initially “giving up” cigarettes.

Underlying the reality that the stop smoking pill is not a magical cure to smoking is the fact that people who have such a belief simply do not do all they need to do to end their smoking habit permanently. The unshakable reality is that stopping smoking, breaking the cigarette habit, requires work and effort on your part. You must be willing and able to deal with all of the elements that drew you to cigarettes in the first instance and that caused you to continue smoking even in the face of the facts that it was harmful to your health.

Millions of people all over the world are so addicted to nicotine that they simply think there is no hope to ever stop smoking. But there is more than hope and thousands of people have already experienced the life change of really quitting with our system.
