Thank you Max Power
Well today is another painful day. One mind technique I have been using to get through things is a concept, for name sake, lets call the "treasure box". I've pieced it together from a number of ideas. Here is how to use it.
Notice what feelings & emotions you have at the moment.
Notice what physically you are feeling in different areas; shoulders ,forehead, throat, lungs, joints, lips, hands.
Now consider, if you will, that your body and spirit are treasure boxes. If you have rocks in your treasure box, there is no room for treasure. So dump it. Get rid of the rocks. Throw them out. Shake those feelings off. Let them go. Release what you are feeling in your body. Let your breathing go uninhibited. If you find you are holding tension or holding your breath, relax and just BE. Give the tension away. You don't need it.
If you have thoughts you want to get rid of you can imagine putting them in a bubble and sending them up and off to God to take care of.
If you have feelings you want to get rid of, imagine them just sliding out of you, off of you, drifting out, perhaps falling ground-ward or being carried away by the wind, and dissipating.
You may have to repeatedly, continually do this, to shake what you don't need out of your treasure boxes.
While you are emptying your treasure boxes, allow God to fill your mind and emotions and body with love, gifts, and treasures. Accept that it is readily there, just waiting. All you have to do is let go of what you are currently holding, and ACCEPT the love, treasures, gifts, and miracles into your body, life, and future. Do not pick what you want, just accept. Do not hold on to any of the gifts. Release them immediately.
Let them flow through you. Know that there is a never ending supply of them. Imagine you are a cup, and Divinity is pouring these treasures upon you, and your cup is continually overflowing, flowing into you and out of you into the world. These treasures are feelings & healings in your body. And they experiences and physical circumstances. The only emotion you need is the feeling of God's love, and the gratitude you have for that. Gratitude is a large part of the process; the more grateful you are in the process, the easier it is to accept the gifts, and the more specifically tuned they are, with greater magnitude, and more and more rapidly they flow.
God knows what it wants for you. It knows what it wants you to be. And if you accept the gifts, in the way they are offered, without trying to hold onto them, without trying to choose what you want,
you will find that Divinity is giving to you and making you what you wanted all along. Simply be grateful, and allow, and let divinity do the work. You can visualize and maintain always in the back of your mind a golden-never-ending flow of love descending upon you and flowing through you. As you accept this, without blocking the flow, look for and expect all kinds of gifts and treasures for you to experience to to rise up and descend down around you. You can imagine a blue waterfall, constantly pouring through you, releasing and washing away tension, impurities, and unwanted feelings.
Here is an application of this, when you are doing pushups or other exercise. Do not let anger motivate you, do not let arrogance motivate you, do not let a sense of self worth push you forward, do not let an insecurity drive you, do not focus on the difficulty of the exercise. Abandon pride. Release the sense of the physical stress. Empty the treasure box of any emotions, and any sense of your aim/goal for the exercise.
Receive in your mind the number of reps, and the manner in which to do them, as Divine instructions. See the process as an acceptance of gifts God wants to give to you. God wants to give you the gift of a beautiful body, like the other glorious creatures/animals on the planet. God wants to move you gently through the process of developing discipline and other beautiful characteristics.
Meet any challenge in the process of the exercise, with extreme gratefulness for the gift which God is giving in the end. Do the exercise as though they are instructions from a loving God, and be aware of your thankfulness for the loving gift of the end product. A good body brings goodness into your life. God wants this for you. Its not about being better, or proving. Its about accepting treasures.
You can use the same process in other areas. I used it in a bar last night. I didn't approach any girls. I simply stood around and was grateful, and being aware, with no expected outcome; accepting what ever gifts God wanted to drop into my being. I had many girls going out of their way to talk to me and touch me, and comment on my clothes, and stance, and joke around with me. I was simply there, allowing it to happen. No I was not a DJ, and didn't get any numbers or anything. I was just enjoying what was happening, and letting it go, just as readily, in order to make room to accept the next thing.
Now here is a way to achieve peace. I came to it because of the intense storms during the weeks/days of the breakup. God does not want hurt for us. And he/she is very deeply sorry for what we have gone through. There is tremendous regret there. I break down as I write this. But any ways, what has happened was not what was intended for us.
I see the rain now, as Divinity's tears and remorse over, what has befallen God's loved children, including you. I see the rain, and the clouds as an individual message of sorrow, and love, apology and promise to make amends to me. I accept the message, and acknowledge God's grief. I see the flash of anger in the lightning, and the depth and flavor of God's emotion in the rain. I know God wants to pour his treasures upon me, now.
And in the fair weather I am reminded of the beauty of the gifts he wants for us, ... the purity and sincerity of his promise. Acknowledge it. Accept it. Give thank-you's in return.
I always look at the sky now and see God's love for us, and how he is working to help us if we let it. Accept His apology and gifts.
If you are wondering what to do in any particular situation, here is what I look for. I notice any particular wild animal that crosses my path, and what it is doing. I think of the human-qualities of that animal, which I would normally assign to it. I notice how it interacts with my position and its environment and other creatures and objects. I ponder how this could possibly be insight to my own dilemma, or a guide for correct action. I run it over in my mind, and see how my thoughts/subconscious interprets it.
David D has some good inner game NLP stuff. One technique is the ideal me. You imagine the ideal you; the one God wants you to become, if you accept instructions, treasures and gifts. Make it big and detailed in your mind. Shoot it up into the sky, explode it into a billion billion ideal yous. They descend upon every area of the world, overlapping everything. They fill the past, present, and future. I imagine them as angels, working to turn things in my favor. I see them behind me and in front of me guiding me and helping. I see them merging with me and improving my actions, thoughts and feelings. Now with every step, imagine, one close to you shoots up and explodes into a billion more, falling down around everything. Its a continual cycle, of angels everywhere, just as the gifts awaiting you and me are a continuous continuum of love.
If you have any other visualizations let me know. If you know of any good audio programs along these lines, also I would like to find out where to obtain them and/or share them.
