LEARNING TO RECEIVE

Are you a giver? Does a lot of your energy go out? It's wonderful to be thoughtful, giving and loving but enabling is something to be aware of. Enabling drains us and prevents the other person from growing at their pace in their own way. Giving endlessly to people who don't really want your help is not helping either person. Giving to those who are afraid to do for themselves is enabling.

Givers often have trouble receiving. When I talk to people about prosperity they clearly want it but they are also conflicted. There is a general belief that says "I can't have", or that receiving is bad. They are blocking the flow "in". Thoughts come up like "it's wrong for me to receive this" and whatever was about to come their way is deflected.

Take time out everyday to practice receiving. A positive flow in, can come in the form of money, love or energy. There are many imaginary techniques that can help us to learn to receive. Imagine whatever you would like, but a daily mental exercise will improve your ability to receive. Notice the little changes that start to happen. Look for new connections, unexpected business, gifts, experiences, etc. Make the connection between what you are practicing and what starts to happen in your world when you do.

How can you ever realize your dreams if you are uncomfortable receiving? Manifesting is all about receiving even if what you are manifesting will allow you to give to others in the end.

Giving yourself your dream and believing in your ability to achieve that is your gift to yourself. You deserve it! We all deserve to receive.
