Greetings from Julie at www.ticklesandsparkles.com

It has been a very busy week for me with unpacking box after box of great stuff, yet I do not know where to place all this great stuff. I guess I have learned a great lesson here and that is “less is more”.

I am also happy to announce that I have a new phone number it is 916-726-4892

If this number sounds familiar it is because it was my number about ten months ago. I think it is great because I do not have to try to remember a new phone number.

Creating and Attracting Positive Shifts in Your Life

I think we have all had times in our lives when we wished we could change something or at least get things moving again. Most all of us have been in a place in our lives where it seems that things are on hold or at a stand still. Why does this happen? What can we do to make that shift in our life that will bring in great results for you and I, thus adding to our joy and happiness in this experience that is life.

To create shifts that will truly enhance your life it is essential that you truly desire to make changes first from within thyself.

We program our selves to think the same way each day about the same things and we are basically going around in circles day after day, thus we are what may be termed “stuck”.

When we are doing one thing we are thinking about another.

We are not living in the moment! We are living outside the moment waiting for the next moment to arrive and then it is gone and we are still where we were.

When we can truly live in the moment and focus on right now even if for a few moments at first we will begin to see a shift, what do I mean by this statement?

We all have things that we have to think about during the day and plans to make for tomorrow.

As we go through our day a spouse, friend or colleague may say something to us and we do not even hear them because our mind is in thought about something else. This is where being present in the moment is going to change your life. If you will start practicing and be faithful about exercising your mind to acknowledge when you are not being present in the moment, you will soon recognize when you are being present in the moment.

What do you have to do to be present in the moment? Actually not very much just feel good, let go of all thought, just smile, relax and let your mind and body just be calm.

In this moment I am happy

In this moment I am joyful

In this moment I feel so alive

In this moment I allow love to flow through me

In this moment I have positive emotions flowing through me

In this moment I am grateful for my heart beating and that I can feel it

In this moment I am grateful for all of life

Take a moment to just be in the moment and to feel life flowing through you.

If you are talking to someone or they are talking to you focus on that moment with them, do not let other thoughts flow in, listen to what the person is saying and when you are speaking, smile let love simply flow through you, your words will be heard with acceptance and the person you are speaking with will remember you and what you said to them.

What about body language and attracting the right circumstances into your life that will also help in creating a positive shift for you?

If you are thinking about something it shows through your body language say on your way to work you get cut off by some crazy driver and you are delayed by a detour thus getting to work a few minutes late. You walk into work all upset and angry about the delay, your shoulders are drooping you have an angry look on your face that says “Leave me alone!” You are still pretty angry at the way your day started and you are letting everyone at work know your feeling through your body language. Okay you must get the picture by now! What is happening is you are sending a message to others and you are not in the moment for you are still stuck in the recent past reliving it again and again in your mind. There is a way to change this and instead of repelling co workers and friends you could attract them to you by changing the way you are looking at things and focus on the moment and what your body is telling others about you. So you got cut off in traffic, big deal there must have been a reason for this get over it. That seems harsh but really it is not. There was a slight detour that seemed like it added minutes to your commute, maybe there was a reason for that too.

Maybe if you are late because of an uncontrolled reason your Angels must have been watching over you, so then say thank you to them and let go of all the thoughts and reasons that this may have happened. If you walked into work with a smile on your face, your shoulders straight up and a good attitude you will then attract the same from co workers and your boss. Letting the boss know what happened does not have to be a lengthy ordeal but a quick and simple explanation. The faster you let go of all that happened in the moments before, the faster you will be back in the moment.

In this moment how do you feel? What are you thinking? What is your body language saying? If I think about this moment right now I have to smile because it feels great. Being in the moment does feel great imagine living in the moment 90% of your life wouldn’t that just be wonderful, I think so! I would like to hear how you stay in the moment.

Remember that Like Attracts Like

What you are putting out through your thoughts, your words and your body attracts to you the same. If you want a great relationship become a great partner. If you want to attract people to you smile, be happy laugh and exude love and come from the heart. Most people do not want to be around people who are negative or down, they are attracted to happy people. People who are up and feeling alive and enjoying the moment that is now.

Enjoy the Shifts you are making today by being in the moment!

Wow! I asked for guidance in something to write about today and I did not realize just how much information I would receive. I am sure there is more and I will continue to bring to you the information I am receiving.

Have a wonderful week!

As always thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you for the wonderful emails I receive from you. Blessings
