Last week, I shared David Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness and an activity for you to rate your own vibrational levels in four key areas of your life.  Hopefully, you spent the week noticing your thoughts, especially in the areas where you were below 200.

Today I want to show you how you can USE this awareness AND I’m going to demonstrate a strategy to help you shift to a higher vibrational level.

I’ve added the corresponding vibrational levels from David Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness to the Abraham-Hicks Emotional Scale.  As you can see, they break out the lower levels into more categories, which you may find helpful as you INTENTIONALLY try to move up the scale.

So here’s the strategy.  If you’re feeling NEGATIVE about a topic, you can’t just JUMP up the emotional scale to feel POSITIVE about it.  It’s too much of a leap. And the more SPECIFICALLY NEGATIVE you are, the harder it is to shift.  What you need to do is GO GENERAL.

Watch the video to see how I shift on the topic of money from fear and anxiety to optimism in less than 5 minutes.

Using this technique REGULARLY, you can raise your overall level of vibration. If you practice this for every area of your life that is currently below 200, you will soon hardly ever be in those lower frequency levels for very long.  Certainly not long enough for it to significantly impact your life.  You will stay in the “flow”, things will come easily to you.  CONTENTMENT is a good place to be!  And from there, you can more easily move into HOPEFULNESS, OPTIMISM, HAPPINESS, PASSION and JOY.

For this week, practice as often as you can, recognizing your negative thoughts on your trigger topics and shifting from SPECIFICALLY NEGATIVE to GENERALLY NEGATIVE to GENERALLY POSITIVE.

For several weeks now, I’ve mentioned energy and talked about why it’s important to keep your energy levels high. On today’s video, I explain Dr. David Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness, which shows ascending levels of consciousness, like a ladder of spiritual enlightenment that can be used to measure our energetic levels.  I’m also going to share an exercise that my coaching clients find extremely powerful.

Why is this important to know?  How can knowing this make a difference in your life?
It can help you expand your awareness and raise your consciousness.  Living from POWER, above 200, FEELS BETTER.  The higher up the scale you go, the better feeling thoughts you will have.  AND, because like attracts like, you attract to you that which matches your overall vibrational level. If you want abundance in your life, you can’t be functioning at an energetic level of FEAR or DESIRE.  They don’t match up.

Watch the video to see what I’m talking about.   Then use the Bonus Tool to rate yourself and start applying this knowledge to your life right now!

Remember, below 200 is living by FORCE;  Above 200 is living by POWER.  Living from POWER, above 200, FEELS BETTER.   AND, because like attracts like, you attract to you that which matches your overall vibrational level.

And THAT’s why I’ve been frequently mentioning the importance of choosing thoughts that keep you feeling good and that keep your vibrational level high.   The goal is to maintain an overall high vibration and to minimize how far we dip and how long we stay in that lower energetic level.

Use the link below for the exercise so YOU can start applying the Map of Consciousness to your life and become AWARE of where you’re resonating below 200.  Awareness is the first step in any transformation and the foundation for living in mindfulness.

You wouldn’t throw a house party and let anyone and everyone in. But that’s exactly what you’re doing if you’re not CHOOSING your thoughts and keeping the negative ones out.  No matter what your goal, it’s important to choose thoughts that move you TOWARD achieving it.  It’s just as important to let go of thoughts that DISTRACT you from your goal.

• what every goal has in common and
• two phrases you can use to keep you moving toward ANY goal you have.

Thoughts are energy; they ebb and flow. Some thoughts are helpful and move you toward your goal, while others are hurtful and move you away from your goal. If you notice the hurtful/negative ones when they first show up and immediately SHIFT your attention to a helpful/positive thought, you will keep moving toward your goal, which is ultimately to be happy. (Watch this video for two phrases you can use to keep moving toward ANY goal you have.)

It’s April, and I can’t think of April without thinking of TS Eliot’s The Wasteland (because I taught literature for 15 years), which fits perfectly with this week’s topic of “The Terrorists in Your Head.”  Don’t see the connection?  Watch the video.

We all have the opportunity and the challenge, every day, to choose where we focus our attention.  No matter what our circumstances, everyone has memories that could become terrorists in your head if you let them.  And everyone has desires you could focus on to move forward.

In the video, I introduced you to Rayna Dubose. Her website is here and the video about her is here.

And if that’s not enough to inspire you, watch Stacey Kramer’s TED Talk on “The Best  Gift.”

We all have challenges and even tragedies in our lives, some more severe than others.  Hopefully you will never have to face losing all your limbs or dealing with a brain tumor, which should put any of your challenges into perspective.  If these women could overcome the “terrorists in the mind” and not replay the victim, “woe is me” tape, then so can you!

How have YOU tamed the terrorists in your head?  How do you change the script when your mind is replaying a story that does not serve you?  Share your tips, strategies, experiences below or on the facebook page!
