focusing emotion quotes from 10/12/24
Here's a big thank you once again for our friend Marsha who transcribed these quotes for us! Leveraging our emotions by thinking about what makes us feel a certain way is brilliant. I have been trying it and noticing what makes me feel satisfaction or joy or excitement and practicing calling up a yummy feeling again later. Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 10/12/24, part 1, 26:18 ¨C What Makes me Feel Q: Hey, Abraham. I feel like my practice of your teachings is really getting down to the fundamental aspects. It makes me laugh because I'm the slow part here, not you. But there are two things I wanted to pass on that I've heard recently that has really helped me. The first is this idea of taking an emotion and then thinking about what makes you feel that way. Oh my God, that has been fantastic! In my journaling I go, what makes me feel excited? What am I eager about? What am I optimistic about? And the thoughts just flow. It goes on and on. I mean I can do it for minutes on end which is really wonderful. The second thing is a three-part process that you suggested that I think of as our allowing - step three. And the first is the acknowledgment that we're an extension of source energy, so we have the power of non-physical with us. That there's an ever-flowing stream of well-being that we can step into. And that finally, we can trust the law of attraction, and the law of attraction has it. And as our friend said, of course! Thank you. A: Well, you've nailed everything here and we chose your video specifically because you are emphasizing this leading edge conversation that we're having about the focusing of emotion. That is such a wonderful game that you are playing, as you are acknowledging those things that you feel excited about, or those things that you feel happy about. There isn't a better thing that you could do than to tune to the way your inner being feels about this and this, and this, and this, and this. Your video answers several of the things that were asked before, even here today. We are appreciating it. Abe Now, 10/12/24, part 1, 28:00 ¨C Your Inner Being Knows Q: Hi Abraham and everybody. I was just thinking about¡ I was just listening to a past Abraham now broadcast which was so amazing and so helpful, and I just picked the perfect one, just randomly. Thank you for all you do and all we get to do together here. And I was thinking about the things that I can better imagine, visualize, know are coming to me out of my Vortex because I've had some sort of felt, visceral experience of them. Like, I managed, thanks to you and your teachings, to live in Costa Rica for three months last year. And so I can imagine myself living near the ocean in a place where people speak Spanish. What about the things where we don't have much lived experience to imagine into them? Can you help us a little bit more with that? All your processes are amazing. What else? A: Remember that step one - I know what I don't want / I know what I do want - is where you have done so much of the creative work. You have identified, you have launched into your Vortex, into your vibrational reality, the aspects that you prefer. And then remember that your inner being is focused upon all of those aspects. And that the law of attraction has been gathering the cooperative components, so that your inner being has already assembled this unfolding, this vibrational unfolding, specifically on the basis of what you have acknowledged that you prefer, that you want. So now, don't try too hard to try to conjure thoughts about things that you don't have past experiences about. Because the things that you did have past experiences about caused you to put your bottom line up front in your Vortex with your inner being. So your inner being knows that you want a joyful life, that you want to be of value, that you want to feel good, that you want to be strong and vital and healthy, that you want to feel frisky, that you want to interact with others, that you want things to unfold, that you want to have fun with people, that you want to be of advantage to them and for the

Quotes from 9/14/24 heartbreak, choice and election
Hi, friends, Once again our friend Marsha has transcribed some great quotes for us! YAY! Thanks, Marsha! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 9/14/24, part 1, 8:34 ¨C Heartbreak focus In response to a woman who feels heartbroken at the thought of ending her relationship with a man, based on the advice she is getting from those around her. A: We know that it is not an easy thing to be in a human body in this time and space, and have any real understanding of how what comes to you, comes to you. We talk endlessly about this being a vibrational universe and you being vibrational beings. And that your thoughts are vibrational. We talk endlessly about how you are a physical being, who is an extension of a non-physical being, and that that soul or source of you remains non-physically focused, Source-like, pure positive energy. Only love. Never worry or doubt or fear. And so, if you aren't considering why you feel the way you feel¡ If you assign your feeling to an inevitable outcome, then you feel like you felt as you are asking for some help here. But you are not yet understanding that how you feel is what is at the heart of your point of attraction. It's like this. Just like the law of gravity affects you every day, all day, in every way, the law of attraction even more so. And the law of attraction is responding to your vibration. And your vibration is indicated to you by your emotion. So for example, when you said, ¡°It breaks my heart when I think this thought.¡± Really important statement. What you said is when I choose that thought among all the thoughts that I could be focused upon, my guidance system shows me that that's not a thought that's compatible with my inner being¡¯s thought. And so the feeling of your heart breaking, that feeling of sadness, or disappointment, or even guilt, or even loneliness, that heartbreaking feeling, is because your inner being is not approaching your relationship with this person in the way that you are. And when you approach it that way, you're taking guidance from humans who are saying, ¡°He's not good for you. This can't work out. You should get away.¡± But that is not the opinion of your inner being, and that is what you're feeling. You're feeling the discord between advice you're getting from humans, and the way your inner being feels about it. We would like to ask you, if you can, to go back to when you first met. To go back to those feelings of loving, and discovery, and having fun, and falling in love. So now we're going to ask you, beautiful girl of submitting this video, to step back if you can from your conversation, from your question. Step back from that situation, from that issue, for just a moment. And hear these words. When you focus on something that has just gone wrong, or something that someone has said to you in response to your telling them about something that has just gone wrong¡ When you choose that as your point of focus, you are actually focusing yourself in to a heartbreaking feeling. You focused the heartbreaking feeling into your now reality, without leaving, without breaking up. You focused that heartbreak. You focused that heartbreaking feeling. But you could in your now, in your powerful now, be focusing an appreciation emotion, an anticipation emotion, even a hopeful emotion. So we're going to talk a lot to all of you today about something that we talked about a lot with the last broadcast. And if you didn't see it, we encourage you to find it last week, one week ago, and watch it. We're going to touch pieces of it here today. Because if you realize that you are the focuser of thought, yes. But the focuser of feeling is an easier thing to do and it gets the job done quicker. So you can choose a heartbreaking feeling with those thoughts. Or you can choose a more optimistic feeling with those thoughts. And most of all, you have to let other people out of the equation. Leave them out of the equation. They don't know. They don't know. Abe Now, 9/14/24, part 1, 14:14 ¨C A simple choice Q: Hi Abraham. I¡¯ve been a listener for many, many years. My question is, what can I do

Abe on loss
2
From Facebook Abraham Fun today: Let's change the word loss to ¡°perceived loss.¡± Let's call it a ¡°stupid perceived loss.¡± Let's call it ¡°an unnecessary ridiculous perception of loss that doesn't really exist.¡± Let's call it what it is. Because there is no loss. When someone that you love dies you know what happened to them? They went into their Vortex and became all that they've been asking for. That's not a loss. And you know who they're hanging around with? The larger part of you. So if they feel lost to you it's only because you're not hanging around with the larger part of you. When you say ¡°it may be more difficult to talk to them,¡± you are arguing for your limitations again. You can't listen to a radio station that you're not tuned to either, but you don't call it ¡°loss.¡± We don't see you in your car with your head on your steering wheel sobbing ¡°What's wrong, I can't find 101! It's gone! I'm getting some other station!¡± Just tune the dial, and it's right there. Right there. The flawed premise that you've been living under is that ¡°now they're gone - they're really gone.¡± You speak of people who have made their transition as lost or dead or or gone. Understand that there is no ending to anything, and that you still do have access to that which they are. You really do. You could still hang out with them, but the difference between the hanging out you're doing now and the hanging out you may have been doing then is that they're in a very high vibrational place now, so they are not as you remember them. They are not disappointed about anything. They're not worried about anything. They've left behind all that worrisome stuff, and they're in a very high vibrational place. Do they still sound like somebody you'd like to hang out with? You say it can¡¯t feel as good because what you're longing for is what you had. What you're longing for is the tactile, the tangible, the auditory, the visual. You're longing for something that clearly is not possible, not at this point. But stay with us because this is this larger point that we've been wanting to make. Because of your fixation all humans have on physical reality - of wanting to see it and hear it and smell it and taste it and touch it - you have been misunderstanding that so many of your relationships were based upon something so much more. There is an emotional connection to every single person. Together you the two of you created a version of a relationship that was bigger and better than this relationship ever came to be. In other words, every debate or argument you had, you became clearer and wiser. Every time you misunderstood or didn't agree, harmony became part of it. Together you created a relationship that most people in their physical form will never ever come close to actually enjoying in physical terms. But now you have the ability to go into your Vortex and to live the reality of that relationship. Which means this relationship that you're missing temporarily has the potential of satisfying you in bigger better ways than you ever experienced before. Esther's relationship with her parents is richer and more satisfying now than in the years that they were living because in the years that they were living Esther was always really scratching her mind to try to find ways that she could help their life be just a little better. And everything that she tried never really made their life any better. Because their life was what they were creating it to be and Esther really did not have that kind of creative control in their life. Whereas now she doesn't do any of that. Now she just enjoys the richness of all that they are. They have deep conversations that they never had time for. Now that they've reemerged into non-physical they're on the same wavelength. So the satisfaction is so much more so now. So you're missing them, missing this person, and your logic says it's not going to ever be like it was. But through this experience you now have put something into the Vortex that was never there before either. There is a new wanting. A wanting to be up to speed so that you c

more quotes from 9/7/24 on focus
Hi, friends, This was a hot workshop and our friend Marsha has been busy! Thanks so much to her for bringing these to our emails! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 9/7/24, part 2, 34:23 ¨C Focus energy Q: Hi Abraham. Hi Esther. Hi everyone. So over the years people would ask you Abraham to show your energy. And every time you do it, the energy just expands and contracts. And I could see energies and non-physical would play with us and even Jerry would pop up once in a while and that's very exciting and delightful. And so I'm curious about the mechanics behind how this energy is being manipulated through Esther. Is it just your energy Abraham? Is it just Esther¡¯s? Is it non-physical energy together with all of your energies? Is it manipulated through breath, through intention? Is it through assertion, which I doubt? But I hope you could play with me on this. Thank you so much. A: Well, we're back to the word focus again, aren't we? And for some, when you focus something, that can seem like assertion. In other words, you're focusing. When you focus, the energy that you have flows and is matched by the law of attraction. And so we can see how it can feel a little confusing. Am I attracting or am I focusing? And we say you're attracting through your focus. So let's go back to your question as it unfolded. So we are a powerful stream. Because of our numbers, yes, but also because of the absence of resistance. We are a powerful stream of focused Source energy. And that focused energy is focused without resistance on everything that you know as physical, as Earth, as flora and fauna, and human, and all species. We're focused, without resistance. And the existence of this time and space reality is because of that focus. And the maintenance of that time and space reality is because of our focus. The expansion and evolution of it is because of our focus. But even more precisely, because of the focus of the inhabitants of the planet. The perceivers of life on planet Earth is summoning the energy for the continuation of it. Not just for the maintenance of it - Earth spinning in perfect proximity to other planets and so forth. Not just for the maintenance of it - water raining around the planet, food moving around the planet. Not just for the maintenance of it, but for the expansion and evolution of it. Most of that coming from human experience, but not all. Your perception of life, what you prefer, the way you interact with one another, what you ask for as a result of your interacting with one another. All of that. All of that. All of your sifting and sorting, and choosing¡ Now think about what we said earlier. Choosing. When you choose from your perspective of seeing through the eyes of source, feel the power of that choice. Start again. Your vortices, the vortices that are evolutionary, growing, expanding because of your exposure to life on Earth, only the parts of it that are a vibrational match to your inner being - that's us - point of focus, point of attraction is received into the vortex. That's why your hate doesn't go there. Your fear doesn't go there. Your worry doesn't go there. So, the pure essence of what you are extracting through your life experience is what this non-physical vortex is about. And then that perspective - that's us, that¡¯s Source energy, humans often want to call that God - then continues the proliferation of that well-being through focus. Humans - we love you so much - you are an extension of that. You are the result of all of that. And you are the reason for the expansion of all of that, which means you¡¯re sorting wanted from unwanted, most wanted from less wanted. In other words, you who are living the fullest manifestational version of all of this existence, you are then fine-tuning how you would like it to be better. And we receive that from you. In order to fully understand your question - we're talking about your understanding of it. We've got it. And therefore in order to fully understand our answer to your question, you have to accept that the law of attraction is the putter together of all of it.

Focus is the game - quotes from 9/7/24
Hi, friends, Here's two more quotes from the wonderful workshop on 9/7 thanks to our brilliant friend, Marsha! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 9/7/24, part 1, 22:57 ¨C Most leading edge conversation Q: Hi Abraham, you talked a lot about our attraction power in terms of the 17 seconds of pure thought we could hold. You also explained that our inner being will hold the thought of what we desire purely as part of step 2 of the attraction process, and will attract on our behalf. I am trying to understand more about the power of that attraction process. You've equated 17 seconds to a certain number of man hours, and obviously it seems if our source is consistently attracting on our behalf, that is way more powerful. And aligning with that would be more productive. You've also said that in the end, we are the creation or really, we are the creation. Not the pile of things that we are hoping to acquire. And so I just would like to hear more words about Source¡¯s appreciation for how we got where we are. Thanks. A: We are appreciating that you bring into the conversation the fact that you are a creator. And you are the creator of the creation that is you. Your beginning question about the 17 seconds ties in so perfectly with what you came to at the end of your question about being the creation. Here's how it fits together. When you focus upon something for 17 seconds - and let's assume that it's something that you want. It might not be, but for the sake of this deliberate creation conversation, you've chosen something that you want and you've focused upon it for 17 seconds. And in doing so, in choosing something that you want, and in maintaining your focus as best you can for 17 seconds, your inner being is joining you in that thought. And in that attraction power of the creation of your desire - and let's take it all the way out - in your creation of the desire to be the creator who is experiencing this. In other words, when we say you can be or do or have whatever you are choosing, you are the perceiver of that. Therefore you are the creator of that. But most important to what you just remarked, you are the creation too. So you managed to focus on something you want for 17 seconds and your inner being joins you. And now, in that stronger attraction power, another thought that matches that joins it and it is exponentially more powerful. Now, you are powerful when you join your inner being on any thought. But let's add to this important discussion by reminding you that the reason that you are powerful when you join your inner being¡¯s focus, or perception, or way of perceiving on something, is because your inner being has no resistance in your inner being¡¯s point of attraction. So, when you join forces, you could say, with your inner being your attraction power is greater. Yes. But another thing that is happening is that your propensity, your ability, your likelihood, your possibility, probability, certainty gets stronger, and stronger, and stronger, and stronger, and stronger, and stronger, and therefore, more likely as you do more of this more often. In other words, what we're saying is the likelihood of you finding other thoughts that match these thoughts are greater when you cross the 17 second point, and greater still when you add another 17, and another 17, and another 17, and you cross the 68 second point. Now we want to be clear about something. There are two things that we are talking about here. You always have a strong point of attraction when you join forces, when you match marbles with your inner being on any topic. But you know, the thing that most of you were complaining about¡ And we appreciate your complaints too, because it's all part of this process. What the majority of you were complaining about is your seeming inability to stay focused long enough to bring something into the reality that you want to live. And that's what this 17 seconds plus 17 seconds plus 17 seconds conversation is all about. When you manage to focus, and then join another 17 seconds, it's like you are doubling your attraction power with ever

Focus summons Energy - Abe quotes from 9-7-24
Hi, friends, Many thanks to Marsha for transcribing these wonderful quotes for us from last week's workshop! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 9/7/24, part 1, 5:55 ¨C Focus Summons Energy A: We are here and we are eager to play together. Not work, but play. We are appreciating your co-creating with us in this way. Many of you wrote down what you were thinking about. Many of you just thought it. In fact most of you just thought about it. And that works too. And some of you thought about it more. You actually put more momentum into your questions when you contemplate it and think about it, and then actually produce a video presentation for us. It¡¯s interesting for us to absorb all of you. And it's an interesting word that Esther has chosen for the intention that we said to her. But it is like an absorption, an inclusion. It's like a matching up. When you have a strong question, and you focus into this format with an intention of adding to the questions of others, and adding to the clarification of others, and of course the primary intention of getting an answer back from us that takes you forward in your understanding. That's what co-creating really is. It¡¯s always motion forward. It's never stepping back. Quite a few of you sent to us in one way or another your concerns about things not moving fast enough for you. Or like you're stepping back, or like you had it but then you lost it. And we really want to emphasize that you never step back. Things do change, though. And if in the changing life that you are living, you would look at it as unfolding, and more becoming, and more clarification, more understanding, more deliberate attraction, rather than you doing something wrong or you missing out on something. That little piece of intention will serve you really well. Let's begin with a video. Q: Good morning everybody. I have been trying to deactivate negative belief systems and attitudes about aging, and there certainly are all of those attitudes when you reach certain ages in our culture. And one of them for me is that I won¡¯t have enough energy to do the things that I want to do. And the other day I woke up tired when I was going to work. But that afternoon, I had a really fun afternoon with my students. And I realized that joyful focus was my energy supply, and that I could have that at any age. And that was a really great realization. Thanks everybody. Love everybody. Love the Abraham Community. A: We are appreciating everything you said here. And we want to draw your attention, all of you, we want to draw your attention to a very powerful law of physics that once you contemplate it, understand it, and then decide that you're going to deliberately apply it, you'll find yourselves energized by this understanding. So you are an extension of Source energy. We've talked about that before and we'll say more about it as we move forward here today too. But if you can think of yourselves as focusers - thoughts that you're thinking about, objects that you're focused upon - focusers. And, as you are focusing, you are literally summoning Source energy (you're more comfortable calling that your inner being) to focus with you toward whatever you're focused upon. We talk about Source energy, focused energy. And as you began your video presentation to us just now, you were talking about being tired. And that's a different way that humans use the expression energy. In other words I don't have the energy to do something. But we would like you to combine that energy that you mean that gives you the impetus to walk up a hill for example, or to even get out of bed. That energy that you mean when you're talking about propelling yourself, your physical body. We would like you to couple that energy with Source energy. And we would like to help you do it by utilizing the term focus. So what happened to you¡ You explained it very well. You went to your work where you are teaching students, and you got focused with them upon something that was fun. And collectively you summoned energy. You personally summoned energy and your physical apparatus bene

The broader view of our planet
From Carol-Lani on Abraham Fun on Facebook: Q: Let¡¯s take it to Mother Earth a little bit here. With Mother Earth, you look around and you see some things that you¡¯d like to have done different. Say for example radiation that we can¡¯t seem to dispose of or chemical waste. That goes along with that, we can focus, and there could be a way to neutralize that, or¡? A: Well, you have to take a broader view when you look at your planet. First, we would like to say to you that your planet, like you, is a being, is an Energy being, made up of components like your physical body (different from your physical body, but like your physical body) that are all attracting Energy from Source. And so your Earth is a being that is constantly expanding and growing and changing, just like you do. And that expansion is the reason behind so much of what you call Earth changes, and that sort of thing. So, when you take a broader view and you look at the longevity of this Earth, you understand that there is a recycling plan in place that you are not here long enough to get a full view of. In other words, what you are pumping from the ground and putting into your automobiles to use as fuel are past civilizations. In other words, it¡¯s recycling at its finest. And so we¡¯re wanting you to understand that this is a long term experience here, this planet. And you are not at risk in the way that you sometimes feel that you are when you look at a pocket of something and use it as your reason to not feel good. In other words, it would be like taking your first trip to some wonderful place, like Paris, and you get off the airplane and you get in the cab, and you are taken to your hotel, and you step out and the sewer has overflowed. And you step into it and you say ¡°So, this is Paris!¡± (Fun) And then you just get back in the cab and get back on the airplane and go back home because you saw all you wanted to see. And others with a broader view would say ¡°Stick around for a little while. There¡¯s a lot more here to see.¡± And so what happens so often is (and it is an experience as a result of exposure to your contrasting environment) humans very often look at what¡¯s wrong and then stay focused there. And since there¡¯s a war on drugs, and there¡¯s a war against poverty, and a war against AIDS, and a war against teenage pregnancy, and now a war against terrorism, they seem to believe that if they could just push hard enough against this thing that they do not want that they could obliterate it and make it go away, when what happens is whenever you are giving your attention to something, you¡¯re activating it within you. And so, instead of it going away, it becomes bigger. You add your power to it, and it becomes more a part of your experience - it becomes more a part of the overall experience - and it comes more personally unto you. And so that¡¯s why we want you to step back a little bit and acknowledge that the reason that you feel that horrible negative emotion when you focus upon some aspect of your planet that you¡¯re worried about is not because there¡¯s something to worry about, it¡¯s because as you take the worst of things and activate them in your vibration, you¡¯re not allowing your connection with your Inner Being and with your God Source, who is not looking at the worst of things, but looking at the best of things. We promise you, it is not the looking at the worst of things that makes things improve, it¡¯s looking at the best of things. You don¡¯t have to wait for anybody else to figure out how to come into alignment. And if we were standing in your physical shoes, we would not worry about this planet. It was set into motion from Broader Perspective. There are billions of you having experiences that are causing rockets of desires. And not just humans - humans are not the only ones who are having experiences who are radiating rockets of desires, all of the beasts of your planet, all of the plants of your planet, everything is having its perceptual experience and it is selfishly asking for what would be better for it. And Source is hearing all of that and pro

Synchronicity, NP assistance - More quotes from 8/17
Hi, friends, Here's a two more quotes from last week's workshop transcribed by our friend Marsha! YAY! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 8/17/24, part 2, 9:52 - Synchronicity Q: Hi Abraham and community. Greetings from San Diego. I love what our friend said last broadcast, Universe of one. There are so many times when I¡¯m out living life that the way an orchestration of events happen for the universe to satisfy one of my desires, it just blows my mind. Yesterday, I had one of those. So I play a numbers game with the universe. One of them being, it has to do with my birthday, 7/13, July 13th. So I like to see how 713 can show up, or any combination of those three numbers. So yesterday, I'm driving down the street at 7:31. And as I'm approaching the car in front of me, the light is red, I noticed in its license plate it has 317. And then I look at the car that's parked just to the right of me, and in its license plate it has 173. So for all those things to come together in that moment to satisfy this little game¡ I believe the person in front of me has a life, but it almost feels like they're just a prop in my play. So it blows my mind every time. Can you comment on that? Thank you. A: Well, what a wonderful observation and what a good discussion for us to have right now. Our favorite phrase that you offered just now was, I believe that that guy in that car with that license plate has a life, but here he is playing with me. And that lets us use the phrase cooperative component. You see, that's what the law of attraction is all about. It's about cooperative components. So anything that's active in your vibration, the law of attraction can bring it to you. This moment in time, 7:31 was the time that it happened, and then all of those combinations of those three numbers happening for you. When Esther notices something like that, we playfully say to her, it's child's play. The capacity that the universe has, that the law of attraction has, that you have the capacity to be aware of¡ Your awareness is the key factor in this conversation that we are enjoying with you. Your awareness of it, your expectation of it. You set yourself up. You freely chose to focus upon those numbers. And the universe showed you how it can cause you to uniquely rendezvous. You were already lighted up. And then all of those things that matched what you were lighted up to could happen in your experience. We like it when you set intentions, and we like it¡ It's the reason that we've been encouraging the pointing game. Esther has a lot of fun with the pointing game. She made a sort of computer program. And in these fields she put an arrow that's pointing. And then she can just tab from one to the next, to the next, to the next, to the next, to the next, to the next. And she can just go on for a long period of time. I'm pointing at that. I'm pointing at that. I'm pointing at that. I'm pointing at that. And sometimes she stays on a subject. And sometimes she's all over the place. But the continuity is about the vibrational frequency that she has discovered. And so, there is so much good feeling in the pointing game. The more you point at what you want, and the more you practice the vibration of what you're pointing at, which is something that you want, the more you activate your point of attraction, your bag of marbles, so to speak. So that the law of attraction can do its fantastic work of precision in showing you how precisely it can satisfy you in multiple ways at the same time. And as you play the games more and more and more, your capacity to perceive more and more matches, more and more cooperative components, expands. And in all of this, our favorite part of you getting good at this is that your realization that you are seen, your realization that you are worthy, your realization that you are blessed, happens. Really good discussion. Abe Now, 8/17/24, part 2, 41:50 ¨C Non-physical assistance Q: Hi Abraham. So I was at the gym this morning, and I was working on the balance beam. And it seemed like I had to step off after every step. And then I remember Abr

Pleasure and Pain, Earthquakes Quotes from 8/17/24
Hi, friends, Our friend Marsha transcribed some more quotes for us! YAY! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 8/17/24, part 1, 4:45 - Pleasure Q: Hi Abraham. I was watching a video recently on pleasure. And it was talking about how pleasure is actually a pretty elusive thing, because you can't really pin it down to like one chemical. You know, there's like dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, but none of those one thing, those chemicals actually make pleasure. And then I started realizing that pleasure is such a broad tapestry. And I started making a list here of all the things that can cause pleasure. Like sunlight streaming through a window, and playing a really fun game, and the satisfaction after a nice workout, and the joy after an Abraham gathering and during an Abraham gathering, and the pleasure of a good meal. And I just started going on and on, and I wrote this list, and it was so effortless to write. And the more I wrote, the better I felt. But can you talk more about this broad tapestry of pleasure? I would love to hear it from you. A: We enjoyed everything that you said. The tapestry word, that's a really good description, isn't it? We want to say to you that everything is relative. In other words, your next pleasure is really relative or related to your current pleasure and so on. So, let's think about pleasure - anything, really - but let's talk about this that you are highlighting. The pleasure that you are wanting to be steady and increasing is perceptual, isn't it? It's where are you when you are perceiving whatever you are perceiving? Now, if you really want to cut right to the heart of what causes a pleasurable moment, no matter what it is you¡¯re focused upon, whether you're focused upon something in nature, something that your skin is feeling, or that your tongue is tasting. Or that your eyes are seeing, or that your ears are hearing. Or that your nose is smelling. In other words, so much of that pleasure comes through those physical senses. Also through your solar plexus. The pleasure of love or the pleasure of exhilaration. Or the pleasure of satisfaction. You called a lot of this out. So, all of that, if we get right to the heart of it, if you¡¯re really wanting to amplify pleasure, you're wanting to be as close in proximity to your inner being - who is having the experience with you - as possible. In other words, your optimum pleasure is when you are tuned in, tapped in, turned on. So that you and your inner being¡ The bag of marbles that represents your point of attraction and the bag of marbles¡ We know. We'll talk more about the marbles as we move forward. If you haven't heard us talking about them. But what you've got going on vibrationally and what your inner being has going on vibrationally, when those match, then your pleasure is at a higher pitch. There's no pleasure in guilt. But there is relief when you let go of it. But you're not talking about simply or merely the relief of stepping from the harsh, penetrating, unpleasant, parched, desert-like sunlight into the shade. You're not just talking about relief. You're talking about pleasure. You're talking about alignment. So whatever you are focused upon has potential of giving you pleasure. And the momentum of that pleasure has to do with how consistently you are staying in alignment with your inner being. We really like this discussion. Abe Now, 8/17/24, part 1, 8:50 ¨C Pain Q: Hi Abraham. In the last session you talked with a woman who had obvious pain, and I appreciated your response to her so much. I've also heard you say that sometimes we just need to find the easiest existing match to feeling good, especially when we haven't manifested something that we really want. And I've had significant back pain the last couple years and haven't found a way to alleviate that. And wondering, would you speak a little bit more to that strategy of the easy existing match for something like back pain, that isn't related to back pain? And how we can move forward, and how much intent plays in that whole situation. Thanks Abraham. A: Well your wonderful question¡ We

Adore yourself
from Facebook this morning: The Magic Formula: "Look at yourself and adore yourself. If you will make this small effort to appreciate you and what is yours now, you will soften so quickly, any resistance that has been keeping you apart from the things you want. It is the magic formula that you've been looking for. It is the key to you getting what you want. It is the key to your abundance, your clarity and your stamina. It is the key to your energy. It is the key to your vitality. It is the key to your flexibility. It is the key to your wellness. It is the key to all things that feel good to you. Make some small effort, every chance you get, at looking at where you stand now and doing your best to soothe and appreciate your now. Reach for those feelings of appreciation of self. There is no exercise that will ever do that and take you further than finding a way of soothing the resistance that you have directed at you. When you soothe the resistance that you have directed at you, your world will open fast to the abundance that is lined up right outside your door."

quotes from 8/3/24
Hi, friends, Marsha transcribed some more great quotes for us from the most recent workshop! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now, 8/3/24, part 2, 13:13 - Expectations Q: Hi everyone. I'm enjoying seeing my beliefs and expectations in the same place. And the more I notice them, the more expectant I seem to become. And it's really nice to see that. Since the Amsterdam workshop, I've noticed that Abraham keeps reinforcing everything I think and feel about, with daily quotes or I will listen to Abraham on YouTube and boom, there it is. It is as if Abraham is aware of me every single minute of my day, and that's how it feels, really. Also, is it okay for me to be this selfish, meaning really caring about the way I feel and seeing the world through the eyes of source, in a world that feels like it's quite mad? Thank you. A: It's not only all right for you to be calibrating to the perspective of your true self, it's the only thing that ever really works for you. It¡¯s the only thing that helps you to sustain living happily ever after. And it's helpful to understand that everybody has self-interest. And if we can help you to realize that your true self-interest is being one who loves, being one who thrives, being one who is ongoing, being one who is¡ You said something in your very opening words that is just perfect to this conversation and really perfect to your living happily ever after. You said, ¡°I'm getting good at my beliefs and expectations being in the same place.¡± Now, think about the power of what you said. Esther believed that she could get the screen like this from the other place, and get it over here. She believed it was possible. But her expectation was that it was going to be difficult, and take time that she really didn't have. So, she had a negative expectation. A belief. It's possible to believe that you can do something but expect it to be difficult. So what you want the expectation¡ Let's start again. A belief is a thought that you continue to think. Your beliefs are what your point of attraction is mostly about. A belief that you've practiced, really practiced, becomes an expectation. So, thoughts that you think often become beliefs. And beliefs that you focus upon often become expectations. The question is, is it an expectation that feels good when I focus or an expectation that does not feel good? When you believe something, and that belief evolves into an expectation that feels wonderful, it's going to deliver to you so many wonderful moments. Now consider this. We've not said this to you before. We want you to focus on your vortex. Your vortex is this vibrational reality. And it's been vetted by you. In other words, you created it by sifting and sorting, knowing what you don't want. And when you launch that rocket of desire, whether you use words or not, when you know that you don't want something, what you do want is known by your inner being. And the fact that your inner being was aware of you giving birth to it, your inner being fixates on it never-endedly. When you say, it feels like we know you¡ We represent your inner being and we do know you. We know the vortex version of you. We know the vortex version of you. We never look at the part of you that is expecting other than what you've put into your vortex. Your vortex is a vibrational reality where there is clear expectation of all of the wanted pieces that you have lived and launched there. What a nice way to look at that. Your inner being expects you to live happily ever after. Your inner being expects you to be abundant in all of the ways that you are choosing. Your inner being expects you to feel good in your body. Your inner being expects you to continue to find new things to want. Your inner being knows that you will never be stagnant and bored. Your inner being expects you, expects your life to continue to deliver to you enough variety to produce new ideas of desire. And your inner being expects you to use your guidance system in order to focus yourself into clarity without resistance about the things that you want. And your inner being expects yo

Abe 7/27 on Knees and more on intentions
2
Hi, friends, Here's the rest from this workshop! Abraham Now, 7/27/24, part 2, 5:33 ¨C Knee problems Q: Hi Abraham. Thank you for choosing my question. I would like to continue where you left us after the last broadcast from Seattle. I would like to continue where you answered the question if it is possible to regenerate body parts after all injuries. You left us with the saying, if the Universe has the wherewithal to inspire desire within us, it has the wherewithal to deliver it to our fullest satisfaction. In my case, I would like to regenerate optimal functioning and stability in my knee after an old injury involving the anterior ??? ligament. I try to imagine how it would feel to have this optimal functioning, what I would do. And also to find easy existing matches. But there I struggle to find these matches and I would like your help. I thank you very much. A: One of the things that makes things like that, regarding your physical body, a bit more difficult than some other things, is that your body is always with you, and your awareness of your body is quite intense. And something like, something that hurts, physical pain, or something that slows you down, like something that's important to your mobility¡ We understand how your life experience can continue to perpetuate a belief. Also going to doctors who have not had experience with people getting outside of what they're living and intending in a more powerful way. In other words, we're talking about making your intention or your desire more active than your belief. That's really what we're talking about. And so, finding a way to intend, rather than notice is really what has to happen. Now, you could be sitting, not asking anything of your body, of your knee, and feeling physical comfort, and you could be focused upon other things that are working. In other words, anytime that you are feeling good, you are allowing that resonance. Anytime that you are not in resistance, your body is regenerating. So you don't have to be on the subject of a physical body in order to do well for it. But that's why as you may have heard in our earlier conversation with our friend about his cold sore, stress, anything related to your physical discomfort or ailment or not, prevents the energy from flowing in a way that gives you the improvement. So, soothing is solving. Anything that you can do to soothe. Abraham Now, 7/27/24, part 2, 44:07 ¨C List of intentions Q: Hi, everyone. Aren¡¯t these like the best times to be alive and to know what we know? I¡¯m enjoying it. I'm really enjoying it. So yeah. These are the things that I've decided: I've decided to be sensitive to the way I feel. I've decided to intentionally connect with my inner being before anything that I want can come to me. I've decided to make contrast my friend and resistance my guiding light that lets me know in the moment that I could use some soothing. I've decided to make a career of being a deliberate creator, which I'm enjoying. And I also decided to feel no longer responsible for how anybody else feels. And all these manifestations that I've been rendez-vous-ing with keep reassuring me that I've made the right decision. And Abraham, you've been in all of them. And so, just for the fun of it, am I a part of the same energy that you guys are coming from? That would be nice to know. A: Before we come to your important last question, we want to talk about that wonderful list of intentions that you described there. It really is the best articulation of intention that we've heard from any of you. What a list of things that are important to you. And the thing that we like most about it is that as you spoke that list, there was not any evidence of any resistance in the frequency that is you. That is what tuned in/ tapped in/turned on is about. And think about what you witnessed there, if you are observing it, and what you demonstrated there, if you are the maker of that video. Think of it in terms of what we've been talking about in these hours that we've been together today. How as something happens that you are observing and b

Quotes from the 7/27 workshop on intention, cold sores and turmoil
Hi, friends, So grateful to my friend Marsha for transcribing these quotes for us! YAY! More to come soon. Love and hugs, Connee Abraham Now, 7/27/24, part 1, 11:02 ¨C What do I intend? A: So here you stand in a moment and something has happened that is triggering some negative emotion. So, if you'll stop in the middle of that negative emotion and say to yourself, I feel this negative emotion. Identify what it is. In this case, it's fear that there's not going to be enough. It might be haste as our friend said earlier, or stress, as we were talking about. But identify what that negative emotion is. Just identify it. And then, reach for, if you can - you usually can ¨C some easy existing matches that feel like relief to you. We said to Esther the other day, it's like stepping from the harsh sunlight into the shade. Or it could be the other way around. Stepping from the chill of no sun into the sun. In other words, step into relief as best you can. So looking for some easy existing matches. Now, many of you disagree that this is even a viable idea, because you feel how you feel. And we want to say to you, you're not wrong about that. How you feel is real, and you feel the way you feel because you've been feeling that way, so the law of attraction¡¯s been amplifying how you feel by bringing you more that feels like what you feel like. So that's really what a belief is. A belief is a thought that you continue to think. And you feel validated. You feel justified in the belief that you hold because it's real. You're not making it up. I feel this way because of this and this and this. But what we want you to hear, is that if you will apply this process¡ Esther's been playing this game with us for about a month. And it goes like this. I have this feeling and it doesn't feel good. And then I have a tendency, in fact almost an urgency, to justify the feeling by explaining why I have the feeling. It's like, defending my opinion. My opinion that didn't come easily to me. I had this opinion and then the law of attraction proved it to be true. So, I have an opinion that's real. But it is not serving me. Because it's an opinion about what's gone wrong, or what's going wrong, or about what might go wrong. You can stop in that moment, as you realize that you are defending your position, you are defending your opinion, and say¡ We're looking back at the email¡ ¡°We're earning more money than ever before. And yet, I still get into fear that it's not enough.¡± As you identify what that opinion is, and then instead, ask yourself, what do I intend? This is my belief or my opinion. And friends, almost every time when you are actively engaged in a thought that is about an opinion, you're pushing against something. In an attraction-based universe pushing against something doesn't make it go away, it makes it come closer. So instead, I've had an opinion which has me calling to me more of what I don't want. If I can set an intention, what do I intend? So in this case, I'm afraid that there's not enough money. Or I'm afraid there's not going to be enough money. And my opinion is valid. I know so much about that, people that don't have enough. But I intend to be prosperous. And I intend more avenues to open for me. And I intend to be in alignment so that I can be in the right place at the right time. And I intend to feel good. I intend to be in the receiving mode. I intend to have good timing. And I intend to feel good through my days. And I want to feel good. I intend that. That's really stepping into the shade. And it doesn't take much more conversation with yourself than that. So, we'll talk about that more as we're moving forward. But it's a technique that is helping. Identifying the emotion that doesn't feel good. And then acknowledging that usually, it doesn't feel good because I've got an opinion. And I'm trying to justify where I'm standing or explain where I'm standing to someone. And in doing so, I'm working against myself because my opinion is pushing against what I don't want, which is inviting what I don't want. So enough of that. What do I

I want to help
2
Hi, dear fellow Abers, I feel stuck, and I would love to find a better perspective. A more helpful one. I have a dear friend who is "unhappy" a lot of the time. She has a nice husband who she loves, but she hates her living situation. She wants to move closer to town....but she feels she can't. Her husband has a fairly low-paying business at their home which he could not move. He wants to stay. Instead of feeling helpful to her, I just get mad because I think her husband is taking advantage of her and is not willing to even consider moving. He just raises objections which seem insurmountable. She feels powerless to cross him. So. Somehow, I think there are things I'm not seeing as far as being helpful. Anyone have ideas?? Thanks, Marsha

Open the vortex
Saw on Facebook today: There are millions of people that feel outrage at one or another thing. So there are millions of people asking. In other words, this is a big stream that is asking. And one clear minded being like you can lie in your bed, hold a pure thought of well-being and you can open that vortex, and all of the energy that is being asked for by all of those millions who are not allowing it to flow through them, because they are so mad and outraged, can flow through you, and you can powerfully and positively affect any outcomes. You have more input into your national or global affairs than the people in politics that devote their lives to it, because they are so caught in the muck and mire of debate that they are not accessing the energy. Whereas, one who is connected to the stream is more powerful than a million who are not. ~ Abraham-Hicks Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

What makes your heart sing?
Look for those things that make your heart sing so that you can find the touchstone of the feeling within that... And the most important thing that we want you to remember as you move forward in the continuum of your physical experience is this: Your connection to your core energy is not fragile. You don't have to protect it or guard it. You don't have to watch out for those people that don't understand and isolate yourself in corners. You are not fragilely connected to this life force. You are eternally connected to this life force. And as you consciously make the connection, you will get back there easier and easier and easier every time. ~ Abraham-Hicks Sacramento, CA , 3/8/1997 Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

More from June 29 workshop - having fun!
Hi, friends, Here's the quotes that our friend Marsha transcribed from the second half of the June 29th workshop. So much to appreciate and enjoy here! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now: Make peace with it - 6/29/24, 2nd segment, 46:53 Q: Abraham, thank you for taking my question. I'm wondering if you can talk more about finding peace and making peace with what is. I have recently remembered or discovered that I can just make peace with what it is, which is what I think you're calling allowing. And if I stop pushing against and fighting for my own limitations on and on and on, then everything's actually pretty easy. And a lot more options appear available and I feel better. And I feel a lot of relief. And I've been trying for so long to let go of the split energy thing I got, that I think it's really working. And I'm wondering if you can just talk more about it. Thank you. I love you. A: Well, you're right there and this is a really important distinction for everyone. This is what this whole conversation is leading to. So just relax and feel this happen within you. So, we really appreciated your perfect words, making peace with something. Not trying to push it away. And it is what allowing is. And it is what stepping into the shade is. And it is what meditation can bring you. And all of that, all of the things. We've talked about all of those things. So now this is what we want you to hear. This is what we really want you to hear. So, now you've stepped into the shade¡ Now you all are smart. You've been listening to us for a long time. And you've listened to all the processes and all the things that we've encouraged you to do. And a lot of them are rolling around in your mind and you're wanting to get it all just right. But we want what we're going to say right now to override everything else that you've ever heard from us. Just relax and hear this. As you relax into where you are being okay, no matter what it is being okay, there's going to be a transition thing that will happen within you. You could even call it a manifestation. It's an unfolding. It's real. And we want you to notice it. We want you to notice when you're feeling shifts from just letting go because you've stepped into the shade and you have relief, and an idea of something that you want to do has come to you. Can you put the emotional scale on the screen easily? So, look over there at number eight, seven. That contentment is that peace that you're talking about. So there you are feeling that peace. And if you can look off to the right, right there between contentment and hopefulness. See that little very faint writing. It says tipping point. And what that tipping point is, is the tipping point from the relief of stepping out of the harshness and the inspiration of what to do next. Ooooh! That's it right there. If you can just hear that so that you're tending to yourself. You want to feel good and you're doing your best to feel good and you're doing whatever it takes to just get out of that harshness and then find the feeling place of relief. And let's call relief that contentment, that peacefulness just for a moment. It's the tipping point. And it is our promise to you that it will shift from relief into some hopefulness and some inspiration about some other things. Because this is the law. When you are without the resistance that you're feeling in reaction to whatever it is that you're reacting to, when you can give yourself the relief of that, then the inspiration of your inner being¡¯s calling will be your next step and your next step and your next step. We love what just happened there. That was a breakthrough. That was a tipping point. Abe Now: I want to have fun - 6/29/24, second segment, 53:31 Q: Hi Abraham. Hi Esther. Um, love these gatherings. I also love the analogy of the marbles, the bag of marbles. And recently just remembered again the analogy of the buffet. Those are really useful. But it came to me this week that it's time to ask what do I want to do? What do I want to have? I've lived life by a to-do list and everything that I have to do. An

Step Into the Shade
3
Hi, friends, Here's quotes from Saturday's workshop from Marsha! Good Stuff! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now: Focus on what you already have - 6/29/24, 1st segment, 55:00 Q: Hi Abraham. In one of your past broadcasts you mentioned that we should delegate tasks to other people. And I have a nine-month-old baby, and I feel like I want to do this. I want to delegate tasks to other people, to my husband and others. However, I know I'm on the lower part of (the) emotional scale regarding this topic. So, how to go about it? Could you talk more about it? And give us examples. What did you mean when you said that we should delegate tasks? This was in your December or November broadcast. So it would be really great if you could talk about it. Thank you. Bye. A: Well we know what you mean when you say it feels like you're on the lower half of the scale when you are overwhelmed, or just plain tired, or maybe don't want to have to do all of the things that you're having to do. And so from that lower half of the scale kind of thinking, you think well, I'd like somebody else to do some of these things. And so, we understand why you're feeling discord in that. But we also want to say to you, it's all right for you to know that you're overwhelmed, or for you to be tired, or for you to just not like something the way it's unfolding. And it's all right for you to ask for some relief. And that is the reason that we are giving you the phrase ¡°Step out of the harshness of the overwhelmment, or of the feeling of injustice. Or whatever it is that you might describe it as. And step into the shade.¡± And by that we mean by saying it's all right for me to feel this way. Anyone would. I'm not a bad person for feeling overwhelmed or misunderstood. I just want to feel better. That's what we're talking about, about stepping into the shade. So that's one thing that if we were standing in your physical shoes that we would do. But then next, we would do this. We would try to find the feeling place of the relief that you're looking for. In other words, we know that so much that you're doing for your baby, for your family, for your life, for others, for yourself, feels really, really good to you. We know that you feel that often. But we also know that when things come up that make you feel misunderstood, that there's a tendency to try to get somebody else to take up the slack a little bit. And so, hear this differentiation. If you can delegate to the universe, the universe will do the delegating to others. Because the universe knows where the paths of least resistance are. So, rather than saying to someone, ¡°I wish you could help me out here and do some of these things that I'm having to do. You know, you've got it easier than I do.¡± We know you're not going that far, but we're picking up on a lot of different thoughts from a lot of different viewers here. But instead, you are saying to the universe, delegating to the universe, ¡°I would like to delegate this. I want it to be done, and I would like the universe to find the path of least resistance to get it done.¡± Because there are plenty of people that are in a place that that's not resistance to them. So we're going to be more clear here. Just stay with us, just a little bit. The incoming from you all is strong here. So, we¡¯re just gonna absorb it and respond to some of the thoughts that you're thinking here. When you find an easy existing match by going a little general at first, but then, becoming less general, by letting the contrast serve you¡ For example, if you feel like you never have enough time for yourself, negative end. But on the other end of that stick is, what does it feel like when I just have some free time? When someone else has taken up the slack. And I just have a moment in time where I can just choose something that I'd like to do. That delicious feeling of I could nap for a while. Or that delicious feeling that I could take a walk right now. I could do what I want to do right now. I could do what I want to do right now, because the baby is sleeping. Or because all things are taken care

Look somewhere else
From Facebook today: Look somewhere else. Look at the easy things. Look at the things that are easy to feel good about. It's easy to feel good. It's so easy to feel good. It is so easy to feel good. Look where you are - look at this day, look at this world - it's so easy to feel good. Look at the potential, look at the balance, look at the diversity, look at the stuff that the Universe is made of, look at the longevity of you, look at the wholeness of your Source, feel the bigness of all of this, feel the bigness of you when you focus within it. These are such good times. There have never been more emphatic, exhilarating times for humans to be present and on the path of deliberate creating. It has never been better than this. And it will get better. It has never been better than this, and it will get better because it is the nature of this expanding Universe. And when you croak, and you will, you'll leave behind all of the things that bother you and take with you all of the things that you desire, and that will be the basis of the Vortex that will sustain you eternally. And meanwhile you're not here to fix broken things - they aren't - and you're not here even to make the world better. It's not like that. You're here for the purpose of genuinely finding things of interest to you to focus upon so that life can flow through you. And when you let life flow through you, you feel really, really good. When you pinch it off, even a little bit, oh, you feel disappointed. ~ Abraham-Hicks Phoenix 12/10/2016
