Are Friends Keeping You from Your Miracles?
by Debra Poneman
As we all know from having passed Law of Attraction 101, whatever you give your attention to will grow in your life. If you use your powerful attention to dwell on lack and limitation or what is not going well, you’ll manifest more of it. If you put your attention on what’s good and abundant, you’ll manifest more good and abundance.
So why is it that even when you’re putting your attention in all the right places sometimes you just feel energetically thwarted?
There are probably many reasons but one just might be: there are too many people around you whose thoughts aren’t supporting your miracles and miraculous life.
Although I believe that everyone is doing the best they can given their own life’s circumstances, you might want to ask yourself, “Are there people in my life who are creating a field of resistance that might be holding me back? Are there people who for one reason or another might not want me to be happy and successful? Is it wise to continue to have these people in my life?”
Last year I had a powerful experience in the ER room that made me ponder these questions more deeply.
Here’s what happened:
I thought I had the flu but usually my flus only last twenty-four hours since I knock them right out with my cache of Echinacea, golden seal and vitamin C. Although I executed my usual routine, as the days passed I realized that this one was not going away so quickly and after about four days I was sicker than I ever remember having been in my life. In fact by the fifth day when I managed to lift my head to dial my local energy healer he implored me to call 911 immediately.
When the paramedics arrived and asked what hospital I wanted to go to and I told them, they commiserated and decided that I might not survive the nine-minute ride and instead took me to the hospital three minutes away. My blood pressure at that point was 67/28 and it turned out I had two types of deadly bacteria in my blood.
When I arrived at the ER I started to lose consciousness. I guess I had what might be termed a near death experience but I didn’t go through any dark tunnel or see any being of light. I just noticed that when my eyes were open I could see what was going on in the room and when my eyes were closed I could also see what was going on—but everything was moving light.
I saw how this moving light orchestrated everything anyone ever does and that there was no such thing as a mistake. There was only perfection in the room and in the universe.
Then another amazing thing happened. I saw the power of people’s words and thoughts when a nurse assured my husband I was going to be okay.
Although she knew that my life was hanging by a thread, she went over and put her hand on his shoulder, and said, “Don’t worry. She’s going to be fine.” And as the words came out of her mouth I saw them as a sparkling pink energy stream that went from her mouth into my body and made me “fine.” I felt her words actually strengthen me.
Then, a few moments later, the doctor came in, looked at the monitors and in a very tense and urgent voice said, “Get that blood pressure up or we’re going to lose her.” I saw a murky gray energy accompany his words and enter my body weakening me even further.
Here I am close to death and I had the clear thought that if I had the strength to speak, I would tell everybody in the room to just turn towards me and say or think, “She’s going to be fine,” and I could have gotten up off the gurney and headed to the gym for a work out.
Actually my experience has a lot of scientific evidence to support it. If you saw the movie, What the Bleep?!, you’d know that there have been ample studies proving that matter and reality are profoundly affected by our thoughts and words.
In fact, a few years ago a woman named Lynne McTaggart began a global movement called The Intention Experiment. The Intention Experiment was a series of scientifically controlled experiments testing the power of intention to actually change the physical world. Thousands of volunteers from 30 countries participated with astonishing results all of which have been verified by leading researchers including physicists and psychologists at Princeton U, Cambridge, the International Institute of Biophysics and The Institute of Noetic Sciences.
In her pilot experiment, Lynn had a group of people based in London direct their thoughts to four remote targets in a laboratory in Germany. The targets were two types of algae, one plant and one human volunteer.
The people in London were asked to attempt to lower certain measurable biological processes in the four targets. The result? The doctors at the German lab found significant changes in all four targets –that means the people in London, through their intentions created changes in the algae, the plant and even the human volunteer in Germany!
And now Lynne has gone on to experiment with groups of people putting their attention on each other’s success, happiness, and physical and emotional well-being through what she calls The Groups of Eight. She has eight people put their attention on one member of the group at a time. The miracles these group intentions are creating are far beyond what the individuals could generate themselves including healings, loved ones being reunited, monetary windfalls, houses selling in twenty-four hours that had been on the market for years, lost pets showing up, and more.
So if this is all true, wouldn’t it be fantastic to have people around you who genuinely desire your success and happiness? I think so.
For now, why not get some friends together who all want miracles in each other’s lives and do your own intention experiment? Put together a group of 8 or 6 or even 4 and see what miracles you can create for each other with your powerful intention.
You also might want to take an inventory of the people who surround you daily. It just might be time to clean house…
