Day 78: I choose to put my attention on the blessings in my life

Intention of the day: From now on, I PLEDGE to give my attention to the good things

Morning writing: This lesson kicked me in the emotional gut. I'm 100% guilty of this bad habit. This is exactly what my ex would complain about me - that I was always SEARCHING for a problem. I'd invent a potential problem, and freak out over that. If you create problems in life - then yep, you'll have problems. But if you focus on the GOOD rather than the bad... then you can just have a happier life overall. I have fallen into a habit of self-protection and searching for red flags when I'm in a relationship. But to be in a successful partnership, that can't be a constant. There needs to be trust and faith, otherwise why are you with that person? If I'm constantly on the self-defense, the other person is constantly dealing with an onslaught of interrogations. It's toxic and if I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, then it's time to fucking stop. Like the lesson says, I must be aware and catch myself when I'm doing this. If it happens, I must distract my mind and think about something else. Inventing potential problems is a ridiculous thing to do. Let life happen naturally and trust that if I put out enough good karma, then good will come back to me too. This is just a bad habit that I need to kick. It doesn't mean I'm a tainted and bad person.

Tarot Reading:

Wow my tarot cards kicked my ass too lol. I asked for a Past/Present/Future regarding my love life:

Past: Eight of Wands Reversed (delays, frustration, holding off)
This card represents how I've been hitting obstacles and facing frustration in my search for love, and haven't been able to find what I'm looking for. I'm trying to charge ahead but I'm still not ready.

Present: Knight of Wands (energy, passion, lust, adventure, impulsiveness)
Currently, I'm horny and lusting after a coworker... yeah I'm kind of chomping at the bit to get back into dating again. But I must realize that there is no timeline for this, and while I'm impatient and wanting to get back out there, I must wait until I'm really happy with myself first.

Future: King of Cups (emotional balance, emotional control, generosity)
If I can manage to wait until I have more emotional balance, by practicing my lessons and really working towards being my best me, I will find the balance that I need to maintain a healthy relationship. It's very simple, really. Just keep working towards my inner light. Then the right guy will find me and I won't have to worry about inventing problems, because I will be balanced and in control... I won't be having those thoughts. That's my goal.

It's going to be okay!! 💗

Day 62: I release the world from my control

Intention of the day: Meditate on releasing my need to be in control. Trust that things will all be taken care of by the Universe. Morning writing: I had a nice long meditation in my morning routine today. It's Friday and my boss is out for a vacay so if I'm a little late it's not a big deal. Besides, things will all be taken care of by the Universe! I have had control issues for a while. Insecurity makes you want to try to control everything that you can, as a defense mechanism. You think that if you control how people act or where they go, then they will act and do whatever you want and you will not get hurt. This is unhealthy and simply not possible. I can't control anything except for myself, my actions, and my reactions. My relationship with my ex was toxic because I wanted to control him. I wanted him to be the perfect version of himself that was inside my head. But that person isn't real and the real guy didn't want to be that perfect self, for whatever...

Day 108: I am the One who is experiencing itself as all of creation

Intention of the day: Always remember that I am made of the same divine light as the rest of the Universe. We are all of one, and one is within us all. Morning writing: I made it! The book is complete. This is the final lesson. It's a bit of a reiteration of some previous lessons but still a good one to end on. Remember that I am made of the same energy as other people. As the trees and animals, and inanimate objects too. This planet is made of atoms just like I am. This Universe is composed of atoms. If you zoom out far enough... this Universe looks like an atom. We are all the same oneness, energy and light. It is always moving and changing as it works to stay in balance. That is the yin and yang of this energy, the magnetism of it. There will always be bad with good, that's part of the balance. Without motion there is no life. So now the book is over. I am not sure if this blog will continue as frequently, we'll just see how that goes. I will try to check in, but I m...

Day 10: I invite myself to fully experience everything I feel

Intention of the day: Let my body be my sanctuary where I can regain my strength and feel grounded. Let my emotions be real but not control my entire self and not affect my entire day. Morning writing: This one is difficult for me. I get emotional very easily. I treat this with my self-medication to help me keep my cool. But as evidenced by the existence of this blog, I'm still not entirely "together." I understand what the book is TRYING to say, but I think I already feel all my emotions pretty well. So I delved deeper into the secondary message of today's ritual: my body is my rock. My body is a constant, silent warrior where my crazy head sits on top. If I need to get out of a bad head space or calm my incessant inner monologue, I can use my new meditation techniques to regain my strength and composure. The bigger issue is acknowledging when my thoughts are becoming toxic, and being cognizant of the tools I have to change my tune.
