Raise Your Vibration And Clear Your Manifesting Blockages In The First “Love Or Above” Event — FREE For FinerMinds Readers

Last week I posted 3 questions asking about your manifesting troubles and I was amazed by the response! Almost 500 comments! And after reading all of them, a few patterns started to be come clear. Most people are struggling to manifest financial stability, career, and happiness. I’m not surprised. Most people I know are also looking for the same things.

And it also seems that despite everything (vision boards, goal setting, meditation), people are still falling short of their ultimate goals. Like I said in my last post, it’s not because of lack of effort. It’s because of “resistance”. It may be because of social programming or any set of negative beliefs we’ve picked up over the years, but often our subconscious (and sometimes conscious minds) resist what we’re trying to manifest. In essence, there’s a blockage.

How To Get Into “Flow” And Become A Breakthrough Attractor

So how do you get into that “flow” or that “state of allowing”? Well I’ve recently come across the idea that it’s not necessarily how much effort you put in or what technique you use, but it’s your Energetic Frequency. Studies by Dr. David Hawkins and Dr. William Braud have actually shown that your thoughts and vibrations can affect the physical realm and by raising your Energetic Frequency, you will have more of an effect on your life than all other techniques.

Your Energetic Frequency or your level of vibration is measured on a scale from 1 — 1000. Love being in the middle (500). So when you change your mindset and raise your Energetic Frequency to the vibration of love or above, amazing things start to happen.

Some have seen drastic changes in their wealth or living their life purpose.

So if you’re like most people, you’re probably struggling with manifesting and this may just be the key that will unlock your manifesting potential. Now here’s the awesome news.

I’ve been talking to Christie Marie, an intuitive medium who’s helped over 10,000 people personally become breakthrough attractors for their dreams and goals and she’s agreed to do a special webinar interview with me to share her knowledge with all of FinerMinds. It will be completely free to all FinerMinds readers (that’s you)!

In this webinar, she’ll not only reveal how to raise your vibration to the level of attraction but walk you through a live group meditation to dissolve your manifesting blockages. It’s all about increasing your Energetic Frequency and taking you to a level of vibration of love and above.

And it all comes down to raising your energetic frequency :) Not some high-priced seminar or the latest personal growth gadget.

Join The First Ever LIVE Group Meditation On FinerMinds And Raise Yourself To The Level Of Attraction

I also mentioned that there’ll be a group meditation during the webinar. This will be absolutely amazing. New evidence is popping up showing just how powerful it is Group meditationwhen a group of people come together and meditate or send their energy towards a single focus. In this case, we’ll be focusing on getting into that state of flow where whatever you desire will easily manifest in your life.

It’s going to be amazing! Aside from discovering just how to unleash your manifesting potential in this webinar, Christie Marie will also give you a head start by orchestrating this exciting and powerful group meditation. You’ll be able to connect with other FinerMinds community members, unblock your natural manifesting potential and raise your vibrations and the vibrations of our planet!

A study done in 1983, during the Lebanese-Israeli War even proved that group meditation or prayer had a positive effect on the region in general. When less people prayed or meditated, more fires and riots erupted.

So on Thursday, March 18th at 6 PM PST when we all get together to raise our vibrations collectively, just imagine what will happen! There’s already 3000 people signed up.

Are you reading this sentence right now? Then you’re invited! Here are the details:

Why Isn’t Personal Growth Working For You? (Answer These 3 Questions First)

iStock_000002953129XSmallI just got back from hearing a speech by Michael Beckwith, at his Agape Spiritual Center in Los Angeles. The energy and passion at Agape never fails to impress me. Today Beckwith talked about getting into a state of “Flow” or “Allowing”.

The idea he put out was this…

Our natural state is that of a co-creator of the Universe we live in. We have the power and ability to make out thoughts our reality. That’s not so hard to understand. So then… why is it that we still falter and struggle with our goals and dreams?

The Top Reason Personal Growth Doesn’t Work For Most People

The answer is “resistance”.

This resistance comes from worry, fear, negative emotions and thoughts that cause us to move away from our natural state of flow.

And this is why no matter what practices some people adhere to when it comes to the Law of Attraction, most people just get small or trivial results. They have the right mindset and they understand the whole concept of “thoughts become reality”, yet they still can’t seem to successfully apply “thought manifestation” into all areas of their life permanently.

I’m included in this too. There have been times where I thought I had found my panacea, my cure-all technique to achieving my goals, but just like a novelty buy, the feeling of joy wears off. The feeling fades and I’m back to square one.

I was out of “flow” or a state of “allowing.”

So Rituals, Goal Setting, Vision Boards, Affirmations etc Isn’t Enough?

So what’s the underlying reason “personal growth”, “Law of Attraction”, “positive thinking”, “goal setting”, “vision boards” or whatever-you-want-to-call-it isn’t working for you? Is there a reason why a billion-dollar industry dedicated to helping you is still failing to live up to its promise? What are we missing here?

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m a strong believer in the Law of Attraction and it’s something I apply to my daily life. I also firmly believe that my thoughts become my reality. But in order for the Law of Attraction to work, I must be open to receiving FIRST. Again, you can call it what you like. “Open to receiving”, “receiving from the Universe”, “synchronicities”, or “eliminating doubts/negative beliefs”. Esther Hicks calls it the Art of Allowing. Point being, you need to be open and willing to accept the gifts that you desire before you can attract it.

And Wayne Dyer sums it up perfectly:

We do not attract what we want, we attract who we are.

So, it’s not that you’ve failed in positive thinking. It’s just that you might be having some trouble with allowing or receiving.

How Do You PERMANENTLY Get Into Your State Of Allowing/Receiving?

But before I can help you get into a state of allowing/receiving, I need to understand the roadblocks you’re facing… so I need you to answer 3 questions.

So Here Are My 3 Questions For You:

1. What are you trying to manifest now?

2. What tools or practices are you using to achieve this? (eg: Goal setting, affirmations, Law of Attraction, vision boards, meditation etc)

3. Are you 100% confident you are doing everything you can to make it work, or do you still have some doubts?

I want to know what it is that you do to get the things you want or desire. What are your rituals or practices? What has helped and what hasn’t helped? What doubts do you have? Let me know.

Stay Tuned For The Next Step (But First I Need Your Feedback Before I Can Release It)

Just drop a comment with your answers to the above three questions, share your experiences, and I’ll get in touch with you soon.

I can’t wait to read your comments :-)

PS: Hint: I’ll be releasing soon an interview with a very special intuitive medium and energy healer who has done over 10,000 personal consultations. She’s happy to help FinerMinds readers open their energy into a state of allowing/receiving. But for her to help, she needs to get to know you first. That’s why I really need you to share how you feel and your personal experiences first.

Let Your Inner Girl Come Out And Play (May Have Cried Watching This)

If you watch only one video this month, let this be it. If you’re a guy watch it. If you’re a girl watch it.

Eve Ensler, the creator of the Vagina Monologues, gives a riveting and heart felt speech about ending violence towards women and the amazing accomplishments that are erupting all over the world from women taking a stand for themselves, their families, and communities.

International Women’s Day was just last week and I know this is belated but let’s celebrate women and girls everywhere!

Bring out your inner girl (guys, you have one too) and make a difference.

5 Ways To Raise Your Vibration For Spiritual Growth And Fulfillment

raising your vibrationsAwesome article here from Erin Pavlina. They’re 5 super simple things but are some of the most powerful methods of getting in touch with who you are as well as opening up possibilities that you never thought were available to you.

That sounds pretty good to me.

The really, really awesome news is that we’re holding a free webinar specifically on raising your vibration to the level of attraction. Think of it as getting into the zone where manifesting just happens.

You can sign up for the webinar here » All the details are on that page. It’s going down March 18th, 6 PM PST. Plus there’s an integrated group meditation :)

But until then check out this article below. I love the bit about journaling. Writing has for centuries been a surefire way to spiritual growth. Not to mention a great outlet!

How To Raise Your Vibration

By Erin Pavlina from ErinPavlina.com

Steve and I have both spoken before about the benefits of raising your vibration but many people ask me how to do that.  Raising your vibration refers to raising your frequency.  This is a spiritual frequency.  Think of it as a scale with someone like Jack the Ripper at one end and Jesus Christ at the other.  When you raise your vibration you begin to resonate at a higher frequency and things become possible that just aren’t possible at the other end.  Raising your vibration has the benefit of increasing your awareness and your connection with Source.  Psychic abilities develop at higher vibrations too.  Karmically speaking, a higher vibration brings you closer to fulfilling your soul’s growth, so that you may not need to incarnate as often and can spend more time in the Ether.  All good in my book. :)

So how do you raise your vibration?

The following tips are just some of the ways you can raise your vibration, but are by no means all.

1.  Purify your body. Toxins lower your energy and your vibration, so if you can, remove cigarettes, alcohol, animal products, refined foods, pesticides, and smog/pollution from your life.  Instead, eat fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, and try to buy organic wherever possible.  Live where the air is fresh and people aren’t blowing smoke at you.

The Man Who Tapped The Secrets Of The Universe By Glenn Clark — Day 46 Of The PhilosophersNotes Challenge

Happy Monday PhilosophersNotes Tribe! It’s the last week of the Challenge so let’s finish strong! Today we’ll be studying The Man Who Tapped The Secrets of The Universe by Glenn Clark.

The Man Who Tapped The Secrets of The Universe by Glenn Clark

The Man Who Tapped The Secrets of the Universe by Glenn Clark“Joy and happiness are the indicators of balance in a human machine… An inner joyousness, amounting to ecstasy, is the normal condition of the genius mind. Any lack of that joyousness develops body-destroying toxins. That inner ecstasy of the mind is the secret fountain of perpetual youth and strength in any man. He who finds it finds omnipotence and omniscience.”

~ Walter Russell from The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

And some words from Brian:

Ever heard of Walter Russell?

Fascinating dood. A multi-faceted 20th century genius who beautifully describes the Source of his mojo in this great little book by Glenn Clark.

Isn’t it a little weird that our culture seems to celebrate “The Cubicle Man” more than “The Renaissance Man”?!? Me, too.

And, if you’re into connecting to God/Universal Intelligence/whatever-you-want-to-call-it to express your inner Renaissance Soul in this precious little life of ours, me thinks you’ll dig the book. It’s a tiny 61 pages but remarkably packed with inspiration and wisdom.

I trust you’ll enjoy Walter Russell’s perspective on genius as much as I do and I vote we dive straight into the Big Ideas! :)

The Book Of Understanding By Osho — Day 45 Of The PhilosophersNotes Challenge

Morning PhilosophersNotes Tribe! Today we’ll be studying The Book of Understanding by Osho.

The Book of Understanding by Osho

The Book of Understanding by Osho“I don’t teach the middle way, I teach the total way. Then a balance comes of its own accord and then that balance has tremendous beauty and grace.”

~ Osho from The Book of Understanding

From Brian: “Osho. Powerful dood

Attempting to capture his essence in a 6-page PDF is almost laughable, but, that’s why you pay me the big bucks, so… :)

If you haven’t read any Osho yet, his Book of Understanding is a great place to start. My copy is basically one long underline with flurries of asterisks and dog eared pages. I trust you’ll dig the gems I’ve mined in this Note!”

Pathways To Bliss By Joseph Campbell — Day 43 Of The PhilosophersNotes Challenge

Today we’ll be studying Pathways to Bliss by Joseph Campbell.

Pathways to Bliss by Joseph Campbell

Pathways To Bliss by Joseph Campbell“Your bliss can guide you to that transcendent mystery, because bliss is the welling up of the energy of the transcendent wisdom within you.”

~ Joseph Campbell from Pathways to Bliss

Some words from Brian: “This is the third Note I’ve created on Joseph Campbell. As I mention in the others (see Notes on A Joseph Campbell Companion and The Power of Myth), Campbell sits in the Granddaddy slot in my spiritual family tree. I hart Grandpa Joe. :)

This book is from the collected works series New World Library and the Joseph Campbell Foundation are assembling. The prose and the presentation are stunningly beautiful.

If you haven’t explored Campbell and his hero’s journey yet, get on it! I trust you’ll enjoy my Notes on this gem, _Pathways to Bliss_—which provides some Big Ideas on applying the power of myth to transforming our modern lives.”

Psycho-Cybernetics By Maxwell Maltz — Day 42 Of The PhilosophersNotes Challenge

Happy Thursday! Today we’ll be doing Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz.

Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz

Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz“Creative striving for a goal that is important to you as a result of your own deep-felt needs, aspirations and talents (and not the symbols which the “Joneses” expect you to display) brings happiness as well as success because you will be functioning as you were meant to function. Man is by nature a goal-striving being. And because man is “built that way” he is not happy unless he is functioning the way he was made to function—as a goal-striver. Thus true success and true happiness not only go together but each enhances the other.”

~ Maxwell Maltz from Psycho-Cybernetics

Some words from Brian:

Maxwell Maltz rocks. A former plastic surgeon who saw some of his patients change completely after their surgeries and others not at all and realized that it was their SELF-IMAGE that created their reality.

This book is all about giving your self-image a (face) lift by understanding how important it is to set goals and rock it.

You will love this Note. For sure.
