Whom ever was in shooting the shit zoom yesterday ( and others). It was great meeting you all to share. One question/comment I never asked about is Dr. Joe Dispenza. I like his overall idea of course, but he completely loses me after 10 minutes or so because of his complex and fast talking. Might just be me... should I be trying harder ? Can you recommend another person with the same message ( scientific) but user friendly? Lol ty ty ty

I'd like to add that I've found that different teachers resonate with me at different times. Don't assume there's a problem with you. I'd chalk it up to him not speaking in a language that works for you at this time!
Detachment: You don’t have to stop wanting it.
The truth is, the thing I want to call into my life the most is a loving and aligned partner. I feel a little embarrassed to share that, it feels very vulnerable. And today I’m feeling particularly emotional about it. When this happens I have a conversation with ChatGPT. In the conversation I had today I got a response that is really profound. I want to share the quote as I hope it can give you all perspective as you try to call in the lives you want. “The truth is: You don't have to stop wanting it. You just have to stop suffering in the absence of it. Wanting love isn’t the problem. It’s natural. It’s beautiful. The problem is that the absence of it hurts so much that it creates fear, doubt, and despair.

@Chris Grieder I’m meditating on the idea of letting go of the pain instead of the hope. My rational mind understands I’m fine and that it doesn’t make sense suffer in grief / loss of something you don’t currently have. The pain doesn’t “make sense”. I don’t quite yet know how to integrate my mind, subconscious and spirit on this one.
Beliefs I want to embrace…
There are a couple of beliefs I want to hold because think that accepting them and holding them to be true would make my inner experience easier and more pleasant. These beliefs are in “divine timing” by that I mean accepting that every significant (and perhaps insignificant) thing that happens in my life has a timing attached for my highest good. I would also like to believe that “what is meant for you won’t pass you by.” For me to get THERE I need to also believe that things are meant for me! I am starting the work to shift my beliefs, like trying to identify what I currently hold true, focus wheels, asking the universe for evidence, etc. I would love to hear the community thoughts…

@Chris Grieder I don't know what its like for other people but there is a somatic element for me when it comes to beliefs. My body accepts certain thoughts and rejects other - that is, when I don't accept a belief I may feel discomfort in my chest or belly. The toughest things are those beliefs I want to embrace but for which there is a lack of evidence. Its probably why affirmations are not really a go-to approach for me. I think the focus wheel is the best place to start coupled with new behavior. That is, behavior aligned to the new belief to give space to evidence collection. So I need to ask myself, how would a person who believes in divine timing and that what's meant for me won't pass me by behave.
The gap between knowing better and doing better…
I wrote a piece on this space we all find ourselves in from time to time. My piece comes from a reflection of my patterns in relationships but I think the ideas are applicable to any unwanted patterns. It’s called “Patterns are dismantled not broken”. https://chrizzyrae.medium.com/relationships-patterns-are-dismantled-not-broken-f98cccca896e
Redirecting thoughts of yearning and externalizing needs
Hi @Chris Grieder & community! I'm working through 2 issues right now (which may have related answers) but I'm a bit stumped on how to redirect my thoughts, emotions, and ways I talk about this, so I'm hoping the community can help. Heads up - there may be language that seems negative. Part of it is to try to describe what's happened, but I hope it's not too distracting to those who are able to see the positive reframes easier than me right now! The first matter is that I really need new glasses and some important dental work done. My eye prescription is a bit extreme and worses every year. The prescription strength, typically makes the lenses very expensive even with insurance, which I don't currently have. Because of that, I've made glasses that are about 8-9 years work to prioritize contacts and as I hadn't been able to upgrade both every year. However, now the lenses are so scratched up and the prescription is so off, I believe it's affecting my eye sight at rest and with my correct prescription contacts so I need to get them replaced. I estimate this will be around $800. Regarding dental work, there's been some tenderness that's growing, and I already know the previous estimated costs as they told me last year the amount of work I needed to be done. For both my eye and dental care to be completed, it will be in the thousands, which I don't currently have. I'd love to be able to manifest these treatments, the income to be able to pay for them, a supernatural healing, or anything else that would resolve this, but like I said in the intro, I am so stumped on where to go with this as my current positive affirmations and attempts to manifest are not working. I know the focus wheel is one of the main tools taught, but also haven't been able to see if or how to apply it to this if it fits. Any help that could be given to move this forward would be so appreciated!! The second matter is similar to this because I think for both of these, I spend a lot of time trying to think about how to solve them, manifest more money for them, and doing a lot of damage control around feelings of lack and not having them yet (but they still persist). But the second matter is around some shopping needs I have. I'm currently moving between two households and wanting to duplicate some of my basic essentials to be available in the second one so I'm not always having to pack up so much in between. SImilarly, in my main household, there are some clothing items I need to replace (they are either non-existent of have holes in them) and also some beauty empties that are coming up. I have the carts full of what I need and find myself frequently coming back to the carts, ruminating about them and how good it's going to feel when I'm able to buy the items within and also sad I can't just check them out right now. That's why I said in the title that it feels more like yearning because I feel very without them and sad because they are needs. I've tried gratitude practices, but it is very hard to stay in this energy I'm finding 😭😭 So again, any directions on what tools to use or how to reframe this matter as well would be so awesome and appreciated.

@Shena Bo Beena I don’t know if this fits in but one thing I try to do sometimes as I fall asleep is just picture my life with no limitations. Like let the anxious thoughts come up “glasses” and dental work and just imagine a world where money and time are not barriers. And keep going, all the little things like I get a pit in my stomach when I have XYZ thought, I imagine a world where that just doesn’t happen…. Allow all your fears come up and just picture a life without limits. WORST case scenario you’re falling asleep to nice thoughts. And don’t worry about this being something that yields results - the result is just training your brain towards positive imaginations instead of anxious ones.

The reality is, getting through difficult things in life or overcoming big challenges or even doing something amazing is never a single thread. It’s lots of small things focused on a specific goal. It’s the mystical stuff and the practical stuff altogether over time.
