Wouldn’t you love to bring in more of what you want in your life without working so hard at it?

If the answer is yes, then I think you will really love the practice I have for you today that is one of the biggest secrets to my success. In the vlog I share stories about how this practice has led to the manifestation of few of the things that have been integral to the growth of my business.

I have learned over the years that what I don’t do in my life is just as important as what I do @christinhassler  (Tweet this!) Building my business has been a balance of outward and inward actions.  One of the most powerful practices I have incorporated is a “calling in” process where I attune to the people, situations and opportunities that are most aligned for me and our mission.

For example, when we are enrolling retreats, we send out emails and do social media but what I spend even more time on is calling in the participants who have a Divine appointment to be there. It requires far less effort than some mass email or marketing campaign. Moreover, my retreats are absolutely magical because the people that end up enrolling heard a “call” to be there so there is major synergy and connection!

I really want you to experience the magic of doing less to attract more of what you want in your life.  I encourage you to commit to this practice for at least 40 days!  You can use it to call in business opportunities, health, money, a romantic partner or whatever else your heart desires.

Here is an overview:

• Begin by writing out an ideal vision of what you’d like to create.  In Expectation Hangover it is called “Future Forecasting” and you can find it on page 97.  I’ve also pasted the exercise below the p.s.

• Read your ideal vision out loud.  Yes, out loud! Why? Using your voice activates your throat chakra, which is all about being self-expressed. If you want to call in what you want, use your voice and express yourself so that you are heard – by yourself, your guides, Spirit, and the souls of the people you are meant to connect with.

• Set aside a designated 5-minute calling in practice that you engage in after you read your ideal vision.  Set a timer. Close your eyes and vividly visualize your ideal vision happening. See it in color, hear the sounds, feel the sensations.  Connect energetically to the people you have Divine appointments with. Call them in with your energy, intention, and love.

• Express gratitude. Know that what you want is already divinely ordered.  Get out of the way by releasing your attachment to the when, what and how it arrives.

• Daily take one outward action step toward your intention (and remember small steps count!).

This practice brings so much grace and ease to manifesting. Making things happen in our life, to the point of forcing them to happen, is over-rated and can even through us out of alignment.

Set aside time to call in what you want from a soul versus ego perspective.  Trust the Universe hears your intention and will deliver what you have a Divine appointment with @christinhassler (Tweet this!)

Finally, since you are receiving this email and part of my community – YOU are the physical manifestation of one of my heartfelt intentions.  I am so grateful that you and I have a Divine appointment – I love showing up for you each week.

Much love,

Christine

Exercise: Future Forecasting from Expectation Hangover 

Are you ready to use your imagination in a way that excites rather than worries you? In the midst of an Expectation Hangover, wouldn’t it be nice to have something to look forward to? Well, you do — it is your future, and you get to create it! If you cannot see it clearly, this exercise will help, and it’s great fun because you get to dream big.

You are going to write out a vision for your life over the course of the next year. A written vision is different from, and even more creative than, a vision you create with pictures, because writing it, and rereading it regularly, gives you the opportunity to be specific and talk about the feelings you are experiencing. In this vision include all aspects of your life — work, relation- ships, health and well-being, finances, spirituality, hobbies, environment, experiences, and so on. Consider what you want to be doing, feeling, experiencing, and creating. Include who you want to be with and where you want to be. Get highly detailed, specific, and descriptive. Write out in present tense what your life is like as if it is actually happening right now. Stretch yourself and allow yourself to dream big, but make everything in your life vision at least 90 percent believable so you actually buy into it.

To inspire you, here is a snippet from a life vision that a client of mine created for herself after being diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder:

I am waking up every day feeling rested and vital after a nice, peace- ful sleep in my luxurious king-size bed. I turn over and snuggle with my incredible partner, who tells me he loves me every morning. I hear the sound of birds chirping outside and gently get out of bed to open the blinds to my beautiful view of nature. I sit down in my comfy purple chair, light a white candle, and engage in my morn- ing meditation, which I love! My mind calms down, and I am easily able to observe my thoughts and bring my awareness to my breath. After my meditation, I enjoy my delicious tea and do my morning stretches and exercises. My body feels awake and vital. Each day I am getting stronger and healthier as I support my well-being by enjoying delicious, organic food.

At the end of your life vision, write the phrase “This or something better, for the Highest Good of all concerned” so you can be free of any expectations. You only set yourself up for an Expectation Hangover if you expect these things to happen — this is a vision, not a demand. It is wonderful to stretch your mind and entertain the possibility that you could dream a differ- ent reality into being. Hold your ideal vision at heart, but hold it loosely. Use it as a destination that the Horseback Rider can guide your mind to whenever you notice worry emerging.
