The Pink Bubble Technique

Creative Visualization is a simple and straightforward book that helps people begin the creative thinking and imagining process. It also supports the notion of getting definite about what you want to attract into your life. This meditation is simple and wonderfully effective.

Exercise:
  • Sit or lie down comfortably, close your eyes and breathe deeply, slowly, and naturally. Gradually relax and feel this meditation taking you deeper and deeper.
  • Imagine something that you would like to manifest. Imagine that is already happened.
  • Picture it as clearly as possibly in your mind. Now in your mind’s eye surround your fantasy with a pink bubble; put your goal inside the bubble. Pink is the color associated with the heart, and if this color vibrations surrounds whatever you visualize, it bring to you only that which is in perfect affinity with your being.
  • The third step is to let go of your bubble and imagine it floating off into the universe, still containing your vision. This symbolizes that you are emotionally ‘letting go” of it.
Now it’s free to float around the universe, attracting and gathering energy for it’s manifestation. There is nothing more you need to do. Creative Visualization by Shakti Gawain 1978

Seasonal Transitions

Transitions occur in all stripes and flavors: age-related transitions, career transitions, family unit transitions, spiritual growth and transitions.

There is also the yearly transition of the seasons. Can you believe we're a less than two weeks away from Thanksgiving? There is a transition we're entering into that most of us really welcome...the Thanksgiving and holiday season that leads up to the new year.

I like to take the time span from Thanksgiving to New Year's to review my personal, professional, and spiritual goals and progress. What were my goals at the beginning of the year? How am I tracking on those goals? What's changed? What transitions did I plan for, and what transitions came unexpectedly?

How's my "inner life"? I'm a big believer in the inner dialog that goes on at all times. My readers know that each of us has a choice of what and how to think: I can focus on what's good in my life, or I can focus on what's bad. If I focus on what's good....lo and behold! it gets even better. If I focus on what's bad...well, it seems to be a self fulfilling prophecy.

My father, who I adored, used to say, "Count your blessings, even if they're in fractions". I love that and use it often.

Here's an exercise I've used that comes from Creative Visualization:

Write down the following categories:
Work/career
Money
Lifestyle/possessions
Relationships
Creative self-expression
Leisure/travel
Personal growth/education

Write down under each category what you would like to change or improve in the future. Then, write down: "If I could be, do, and have everything I want, this would be my ideal scene:"

This fits beautifully in the Dynamic Transitioning program in these ways: 1) Know Thyself; 2) Consider the Possibilities; 3) See Yourself Succeeding
