Hi Everyone,
When people work on their abundance issues, they tend to focus solely on
money, forgetting that it's the negative feelings that can block prosperity.
In this case, a feeling of resentment and stuck energy was both blocking
money and triggering procrastination.
Many thanks to "Denise" who participated in my last two teleclasses on
Attracting Abundance with EFT. During the first call, Denise
tapped along with all the participants, borrowing benefits, as 12
participants were selected for a turn. During the second monthly call,
Denise was selected to have a short individual turn that the whole group
would be able to use for their own benefit. As you will see, freeing up
energy with EFT clears the path to attracting abundance.
Below is the brief transcript from Denise's "turn" on the call. (Please
note, I had just finished with a woman who tapped on guilt and sadness about
being more successful than her sister.)
CAROL: Hi Denise. As you can see, guilt, sadness,
self-acceptance, all of that, and fear too, all of it is blocking our
abundance. It doesn't matter what the feeling is, we tend to get in our own
way!
So what's going on for you...
DENISE: Well, I was on the last call, and afterwards I
had a bit of a windfall! But, I immediately focused my attention on the new
things that I wasn't getting, I realized, well, I'm not grateful at all. It
was more of an attitude of darn right I should have gotten that!!
and where's the next thing that's not being given to me...I don't
feel like I can move naturally in to that grateful state. What I want is
being withheld, I have to do tricks and turns to get it, and then when I get
it, it's like "yeah, I should have gotten that!"
CAROL: So almost a resentment, like "it's about
bloody time..."
DENISE: Right!
CAROL: How high is the resentment (on
the scale of 0-10) and the conviction you have that things
are being withheld from you?
DENISE: 10. Absolute 10, like
me against the world.
CAROL: And is resentment the right word?
DENISE: Yes, it had been anger, but I realize now it's
resentment.
Karate Chop Point:
Even though I feel so resentful, it's not fair, and stop doing this
to me, I deeply and completely love and accept myself...
Even though they're withholding what I want AGAIN, and I resent it,
I've decided to accept my feelings...
Even though it's not fair, I feel all this lack in my life, I've
decided to feel free of the resentment.
(Then starting on the eyebrow point, Denise and the entire class
started tapping the sequence of points, ending on the top of the head.)
But it's not fair...
It's being withheld...
It's me against the world...
All over again...
It's me against the world...
I feel so resentful...
I really feel resentful...
I'm not getting what I want, and it's their fault!
CAROL: Take a breath.....no right or wrong answer...what
came up?
DENISE: Not so resentful...around a "7"...I definitely
feel a loosening.
CAROL: Any other feelings come up as key for you?
DENISE: It was validating to look at it, admit it, and
not be so judgmental against myself, because I feel like a bad
person...because I can't feel grateful...because I feel resentful.
Karate Chop Point:
Even though I feel resentful because I'm fighting against them again,
I've decided to accept who I am...
Even though what I want is being withheld by the universe, and I feel
really resentful, I've decided to accept everything about me...
Even though I feel resentful, and it's me against the world, I choose
to feel calm and peaceful.
It's me against the world...
I'm so sick of it...
It's me against the world...
I'm so tired of this...
It's me against the world...
I'm so sick of it...
I resent it...
I resent it, and that's ok!
CAROL: Take a deep breath...What happened with the
number (10) and what happened with the feeling?
DENISE: I'm calm, and about a "2" on the feeling of
resentment, and have this feeling of sweetness towards myself...thanks
Carol...
Denise continued to tap along with everyone else for the remainder of the
teleclass.
Later in the week I received this follow up and summary from
Denise:
I initially signed up for the abundance teleclasses with Carol to loosen
up the stuck flow of money which usually comes rather freely but that had
been stagnant since I'd moved to Maryland. I was pleasantly surprised with
the fast results. After just the first class, I had quite a windfall: a
check I'd been expecting for weeks came that week (and it had $200 more in
it than expected). Also my home equity loan came through, at a better
interest rate and with 1/4 the expected settlement costs removed. The funny
things was, I noticed immediately that I was not the least bit grateful for
either of them--I actually felt vindicated, which took me by surprise
especially in light of the amount of prayer I'd put into having these things
come through.
So, I took my resentment issue into the next teleclass. It
was hard to admit, after all, resentment feels like an ugly part of me. But
the relative anonymity of the teleclass made me able to own up to it. The
day after that class, I woke up and breezed through my licensure
application, which I'd been putting off for months. When I finished it, I
went back over it several times looking for something I'd missed--I was sure
it could not have been THAT easy to finish or I wouldn't have been avoiding
it for so long. That's when it hit me: my procrastination is linked to
resentment...if I have to jump through their hoops, if I have to do what
they want, etc. then I'm just not going to do it at all.
I never would have guessed.
Anyway, I've spent
the past week spontaneously clearing out dozens of old projects--and moving
smoothly through new ones--with ease...and you can bet
I'm still tapping on the resentment piece!
Thanks Carol!
Denise
Thank you Denise and to all the participants on the abundance
teleclasses. The follow up emails confirm that you all are helping each
other immensely through the borrowing benefits technique!
