So what does the Olympics have to do with YOU and your life? and with the Law of Attraction?

Plenty.

If you watched the Olympics on television, maybe you caught what I’m about to tell you, or maybe you didn’t. And if you didn’t watch the Olympics at all, I’ll give you a summary of what you need to know to take advantage of the “lessons” that I noted.

After you read this, maybe you’ll appreciate more of how Energy and the Law of Attraction plays in our lives each and every day. Synchronicity is increasing exponentially in my life experience. It is in yours too, but are you aware of it? As we end a world age (2012) and enter a new one, this is to be expected.

OK, so here’s a little background. Biologist and author, Rupert Sheldrake is best known for his theory of morphogenic fields (M-fields) and morphic resonance. M-fields are invisible organizing patterns that act like energy templates to establish forms (i.e. manifesting into reality) on various levels of life. For example when Sir Roger Bannister broke the four-minute mile in running, he created a new M-field. The belief system prior to that momentus event was that the four-minute mile was not “humanly possible”. After he broke it, suddenly many runners were able to run sub-four-minute miles!

Something very similar happened at the 2010 Olympics. The hosting country, Canada, where I grew up, had never won an Olympic Gold medal on home soil. Not in Montreal in 1976, not in Calgary in 1988. In fact, my brother, who lives in Canada, chuckled when he told me that one of the Canadian comedy channels did a parody of a well-known Canadian commercial intended to inspire Patriotism whereby the motto was “We’re proud of the Olympic heritage of Canadian Bronze medals”.

Thus there was a lot of “hype” about how desperate Canada was for a gold medal. The energy “field” prior to this Olympics was one in which Canada struggled, choked and just couldn’t get the job done to win a single Gold on home soil. But a major shift occurred soon after the games began. Canadian mogul skiier, Alexandre Bilodeau won Canada’s first Gold of the Vancouver games.

(c) http://www.radio-canada.ca

Suddenly, it seemed that Bilodeau’s victory created a new energy field, a new M-field, i.e. the template for other Canadians to win Gold as well. And win they did! Fourteen Gold medals in fact, more than any other country EVER in the history of the Winter Olympics! It is as if all the other Canadian athletes suddenly believed they too could win Gold.

And I believe that it was synchronistic that the CTV television channel that sold Olympic merchandise in Canada created their line of Vancouver 2010 clothing sporting the single-word logo, “Believe”.

That’s what I’m suggesting that YOU do. Believe. Once you’ve strived to do what in your mind was “impossible” previously, you’ll create a new M-field for yourself (and others) and suddenly, what was so difficult before, will no longer be so. If you’ve struggled in relationship after relationship with patterns repeating itself, all it means is that you need to shift up to a new M-field, a new level of consciousness in order to break the cycle. The Law of Attraction states that whatever field of energy you are resonating predominantly is what you’ll attract back to you.

Believe in yourself, in the goodness of others and in the future of this planet. When you spend energy becoming more conscious and coming closer to your True Divine Self, you can literally “jump” up to a higher energy field. But I have to be honest with you…few people ever make the jump. They often don’t know there is even such a thing.

But now you know. (for more information on the subject of consciousness energy levels, refer to David Hawkins’ book, Power vs. Force)

(c) http://thestar.com

When you watch the Olympics you cannot help but be moved and inspired. Whether it be mourning the loss of the luge athlete from the Republic of Georgia or the courage of the Canadian figure skater who lost her mother days before her event and skated to a bronze medal finish, or the success of athletes who had experience severe disappointment four or eight years ago only to taste the sweetness of success after not giving up, we feel all of it – it is part of our consciousness (whether you watched the Olympics or not).

By believing in yourself, you may be the one to create a new “M-field” for the rest of us to follow. Maybe you already have. It only takes a few people of higher consciousness to elevate the consciousness of a nation. When you believe in yourself and what you can co-create in this world for happiness and joy, you help everyone on this planet.

Belief underlies all manifestation. It is the core of the Law of Attraction. I believe in you.

I have some very exciting news for you. Today is going to be such a great day that one day you will look back upon it and realize that this day was when it all started.

I am writing you today about one of the most important books of our time. This is a book with such a powerful impact that readers from around the world are comparing it to works that are absolutely timeless in their influence. I am speaking of “What Does That Mean? Exploring Mind, Meaning and Mysteries” by New York Times bestselling author, Eldon Taylor. I can assure you that his book has had an amazing effect on all who have read it.

Here’s what one reader said:

“Wow–what a read!!! The idea of a book as an experience is not new, but this experience is! Just when I thought I was comfortable with “knowing” a little about myself the shutters were thrown open by “What Does That Mean?” and the light nearly blinded me. Sometimes the intensity was so great that I felt like throwing the book–but I didn’t, I stayed with it and I do not regret that decision one tiny little bit. This book will provoke you, it will cause you to cry, it will bring laughter and joy to you, and much more–but what it won’t do is allow you to remain status quo.

“In the end, the read is inspiring, absolutely uplifting and full of hope. There are miracles and moments that just cause your skin to bubble with goose bumps. This is a great read–don’t miss it!”

-J.F.

Act Now

Here are some comments about the book by some real visionaries of our time:

“Eldon’s provocative voice of wisdom and compassion places his readers right on the dot about the meaning of their individual existence. What Does That Mean? reveals how the paradoxes we face in everyday life form the rich material that invites us to confidently enter the mystery and relish it. Read, practice, and celebrate!”

— Michael Bernard Beckwith,

author of Spiritual Liberation-Fulfilling Your Soul’s Potential

“What Does That Mean? goes far beyond ‘exploring mind, meaning, and mysteries’! It’s a deeply satisfying and divinely inspired book that will not only explain so many uncertainties; it will also heal many a tattered soul. Both scientific and spiritual, strong and soft, spellbinding and soothing . . . this is a must-read!”

— Crystal Andrus,

author of Simply . . . Woman!

and Transcendent Beauty

“I love this book! There is something about the energetics of Eldon’s languaging that breaks open my heart. It’s very vulnerable, but if one possesses the courage to fully let it in and respond to it, there is great power involved.”

— Anita Rehker

“What Does That Mean? guides you to ask deeply probing questions that often go ignored but must be examined if you are ever to live your best life possible. Highly recommended.”

— Marci Shimoff,

#1 New York Times best-selling author of Happy for No Reason

and Chicken Soup for the Woman’s Soul

Act Now!

Throughout these pages, Eldon shares life experiences that will lead you to revelations about your own life. Perhaps this book’s greatest value is that it assists you in remembering who you really are and thereby places you firmly back on the path to personal enlightenment. English writer and poet Joseph Addison, said, “Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.” If that is the case, then this book is the perfect workout to enrich your thinking. You may not always like what you read, but you will always find the depth of thought wholly provocative.

“I’ve found all of Eldon Taylor’s books fascinating, but What Does That Mean? is his magnum opus, offering a rare look at how inner guidance plays out in real life.”

— Caroline Sutherland,

author of The Body Knows . . . How to Stay Young

“What Does That Mean? is engaging, thought provoking, and quite simply a great read!”

— Christiane Northrup, M.D.,

author of The Secret Pleasures of Menopause

and Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom

“Eldon Taylor provides a life changing compilation of personal and client experiences that reveal how our thoughts, emotions, and actions shape every aspect of our perceived reality. I highly recommend his captivating book, What Does That Mean? for it offers readers an opportunity to move beyond misperceived limitations and write new empowering stories for themselves, their children, and the world.”

— Bruce Lipton, Ph.D.,

author of The Biology of Belief

Dear Dr Karen,

Thanks in advance!
Anon

Dear Anon,

Great question. Thanks for asking this as I’m sure it is on other people’s minds as well. Here’s the thing. The Universe has absolutely NO judgment good or bad on what you prefer or find attractive in a partner. The real issue is not whether you should or shouldn’t specify a particular race for your partner. The real issue is how you feel about doing so.

Apparently, you are feeling guilty and are judging yourself as being shallow. It is your self-judgment that is detrimental, not your desire or preferences. Sometimes we cannot know why we desire certain things. It may be a soul wish and you’ll never know for sure the reason. So my advice is that instead of causing yourself emotional pain by questioning your preferences, learn to lovingly accept them instead.

There is nothing wrong with finding a particular race more attractive. It doesn’t mean you are rejecting the other races per se, but instead, it is just a preference. If someone else thinks you are shallow, ignore the judgment. You are only shallow if you think you are. Reframe your judgment into a preference and drop the emotional content surrounding your preference.

It’s no big deal.

And you don’t have to justify your preferences to anyone either. It is none of their business. Your wish list doesn’t have to be publically scrutinized. The only person that has to like it is you. If you’re truly concerned, you can get a coaching session on your “laundry list” if you really want constructive feedback. I’ve helped my clients clarify their choices that sometimes were based on old habits rather than conscious choices.

Just know…there is an abundance of wonderful amazing people to choose from. Don’t worry about limiting yourself because of just this one preference. Stop being hard on yourself. Let it go.

Please comment and let me know what you think of this blog post.

Dear Dr. Karen,

Money is energy, and I emanate my own energy from within and attract to me what is compatible to my energy frequency, how can I attract money to me so that I don’t end up working myself to the bone only to end up barely above water when I’m an old man?

Kelvin

Dear Kelvin,

You are correct in saying that money is energy and that in order to attract money, you must radiate the “ideal” money-coherent frequency. So the good news is that you already UNDERSTAND the concept of what must happen in order to attract money into your life.

The seven steps of manifesting that I teach in my eBook and my Law of Attraction Home Study Course are the same whether you are manifesting love in your life or more money. What I’ve found is that step number 5, which deals with Obstacles, can be the most stubborn when it comes to money.

Many of us grew up with negative money beliefs, some of which we are not even aware of. The subconscious negative beliefs about money and wealth are the MAIN reasons that hamper people from consciously using the Law of Attraction to attract more money. In other words, it isn’t about how much schooling you received, whether you are smart enough or even if you work hard enough. It boils down to your beliefs!

There is a saying amongst Law of Attraction teachers that goes something like this: Your income will be the average of the income of the five closest people you hang out with. Now I’m not saying to go out today and ditch your “poor” friends, but seriously, unless you make an effort to learn to get to know and emulate powerful, enlightened wealthy people, your chances of money success is next to nil!

I’ll share with you what I’ve found most helpful for myself. First is a free teleseminar about your money beliefs and how they affect your success:

www.secretstomoney.info

Next is a list of books I recommend that you start devouring immediately!

• Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, T. Harv Eker
• Millionaire Maker, Loral Langemeier
• Cash Machine for Life, Loral Langemeier
• The Four Hour Work Week, Tim Ferris
• Rich Dad, Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki
• Put More Cash in Your Pocket, Loral Langemeier
• Who Do You Think You Are? Keith Leon

Here’s some general pointers:

• You need to learn to take interest in managing money, even if you have to fake it initially. The Universe will not give you MORE until you have demonstrated that you can handle more.
• Clarity breeds better intentions. If you don’t know what your “profit-loss” numbers are on a monthly basis, start doing this today. It isn’t hard (check out Millionaire Maker for instructions)
• Money does not come into chaos.
• If you don’t good reasons for the amount of money you want to attract, you won’t get it. So become clear on what you wish to DO with the money and how much it will actually cost.
• The people who get paid the most usually help the most people.
• Change your money language.

Notice what you said above: so that I don’t end up working myself to the bone only to end up barely above water when I’m an old man?

That sentence is chock full of old beliefs and attitudes that no longer serve your higher purpose. Can you see that now? What I’m hearing is the belief that one must work HARD (to the bone even!) for a LONG time to earn lots of money. The “barely above water” is a really strong SCARCITY phrase and I encourage you to get rid of this type of language from your vocabulary starting right now.

There are big No-No phrases if you’re using the Law of Attraction to attract more money:

• We can’t afford it (if you say it, it will be true for you)
• That’s too expensive (scarcity energy)
• Must be nice! (to be able to afford such-and-such…envy energy)
• Money doesn’t grow trees (of course it does…it is made of paper isn’t it?)
• I just want enough to be comfortable (comfort is highly overrated and not a single wealthy person got there by being comfortable!)
• Materialism is bad (no it isn’t, it just depends on your intentions)
• Money is the root of all evil (money is just energy remember?)

Here are positive things to do:

• When you see someone who seems wealthy, appreciate them instead of being envious – and tell yourself, if they can do it, so can I
• Appreciate beautiful material things, even if you don’t plan on buying them. Anti-materialism will keep you poor for sure!
• Grow out of your comfort zone and get some professional coaching to help you find out what your passions are and how you can make money from them.

Learning how to become wealthy requires intensive but FUN study. You’ll learn to use your GIFTS in a way that serves as many people as possible. It is part of your Life Mission!

I believe in you.

Very often I’m reminded just how wonderful it is to be experiencing life with the love of my life. In my first relationship, my husband and I were often at odds with what we both liked and disliked. It seemed like a stretch everytime we tried to think of things we’d like to do together. I remember (as I’m sure he did as well) compromising time and time again.

Although it was challenging to “be” with someone who wasn’t a great fit for me, I am grateful for the experience because NOW I can really APPRECIATE what I have! Isn’t that the case with many of us? We don’t know or appreciate what we have until we first experience the opposite?

This Christmas Holiday season was another instance where I experienced my Divine other giving truly from his heart. A few days before we travelled for Christmas, he ran out of the house suddenly right after we had come back from skating. He was in such a hurry to “pick up last minute Christmas gifts”, I couldn’t imagine what the emergency was!

The next day, I saw an elongated package under the tree. James was so afraid that I would guess my present since he knew how intuitive I can be. But so not the ruin the surprise, I decided to block myself from even guessing or thinking about the gift until Christmas morning.

So December 25th morning finally came and we were unwrapping presents at my parents house. For the first time, I felt the gift. It was heavy. Immediately I knew what it was, but I could hardly believe he got it for me!

What was it?

When I ripped open the wrapping, I discovered the vinyl banner I’ve wanted for the last four years.

This vinyl banner is special. It was one of the one-of-a-kind banners hanging from the Olympic Arena (box office entrance) celebrating the 25th anniversary of the 1980 Olympics. It had a special photo of a figure skater on it. Well, that figure skater was ME.

Yes! It was a photo of me. And no one from the Olympic Center even knew that in 2005 they “happened” to choose MY photo out of hundreds of photos from a stock photo company. While in Los Angeles, I did what all good Los Angelinos do…audition for something! In this case it was for sports stock photography.

The problem four years ago was that I had asked to buy the banner from the Olympic Center (whenever they were done with it) and was flatly refused. I was dejected, but every week, I felt a lift when going to the rink for practice because I’d look up and see it hanging there at the entrance.

Then Skate America2009  came to Lake Placid and the arena  had a complete makeover. My banner was suddenly taken down. So much for my “lift”. I thought I’d never see “my” banner again.

But James, my dream partner, took the opportunity to do whatever he could to find that poster and give it to me for Christmas. He asked one of the senior administrators (who was shocked to learn it was a photo of me) and told him that he’d pay anything to get it for me (such a sweetie). Much to his surprise, the administrator offered it to him free of charge!

Wow!

So on Christmas day, my dream of having this banner as a momento came true. I waited four years and never thought it could happen, but James felt the opportunity to give me joy and took quick action!

25th Anniversary Banner for the 1980 Olympics

There are two lessons here:

1. I believe that if you’re truly connected to your partner, you will be able to intuit each other’s desires and feelings and act according to each other’s highest good.
2. The Universe always knows what the best timing is to manifest what you desire. It wouldn’t have been the same emotional impact had I procured the banner for myself four years ago. Thus, we can all just “let go and let God” a little more, eh?

P.S. Please comment below and tell me what you think!

• I’m making my Law of Attraction intentions and it seems like the opposite to what I want is happening?
• I’m doing everything I’m supposed to according to what I’ve read on the Law of Attraction, but nothing is working!
• How come my life became a “disaster” after just making one intention/wish?
• When things I don’t want “appear” in my life, does that mean I did something wrong? or does it mean I should change my direction?
• When obstacles appear that block what I want, what should I do? Does it mean what I want is not good for me?
• If we attract everything in our lives, how can you say an innocent baby attracted sexual abuse? 

Please join me for the last Law of Attraction teleseminar of the year! The details are below:

My partner, James, just told me about an old high school friend he just connected with on Facebook. She was lamenting that her daughter, who lost her dad in the military, has been in the hospital due to mental distress. He was asking me about what he could do to counsel his friend.

I suggested two things, the first of which was specific to James’ skill as a healer. I told him that he could do a distance Reiki healing on the daughter. He would have to sense telepathically whether she would accept the healing before proceeding (us healers don’t IMPOSE our healings on others if they don’t want it).

The second thing I suggested was for him to tell his friend to write daily journal entries (5 minutes is all that is required) stating all the things she appreciates about her daughter for at least 30 days in a row. Since she lives far away from her daughter, she cannot be by her side to comfort her, and of course as a mother she is worried.

When we try to help people, our worrying adds to their burden. Instead, we want to send a higher vibrational energy stream their way. This journaling exercise is a great way to do it.

So if you have someone you care about in a crisis, the best thing you can do without even having to tell them, is a daily appreciation exercise. This will help them feel better about themselves believe it or not.

I had a case where a patient’s son was suicidal. My patient lived far away so he was distraught he could not help his son. I had him do this exercise for 30 days straight. Very quickly, both the son and the patient got out of the crisis and his son did just fine.

Do not underestimate the power of energy and YOUR power to heal yourself and others. You have much to contribute to the world through your love. And via the Law of Attraction, what you emanate in love will come back to you many times over!

The Dear Dr. Karen question this week:

Dear Dr. Karen:

Joseph

Dear Joseph:

Thanks for writing. Did you say years?

Let me get this straight. You’ve been in love with this woman for years, have told her that you love her and shared with her your desires for your future together and she doesn’t really want to show you she cares all these years?

Well, it is great that she has values, beliefs and desirable qualities you resonate with. That’s a good start. But after being friends for years, don’t you think you’ve waited a long time to have your affections reciprocated? And now you live thousands of miles away!

I’ve heard of a woman playing hard to get, but I’m not getting any sense from you that she is even trying to vie for your attentions. So my question to you is, what exactly are you looking for from this woman? And how can this be the woman you desire if she does not desire you? Years is long enough for her to figure it out don’t you think?

I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Well, it’s not really a secret, but many people don’t realize this: that the world is changing faster and faster. And what that means for you is that years is definitely TOO long not to move forward with your life! That’s not to say that learning dating skills won’t be helpful. And learning to understand women is even more helpful.

Here’s what I know. There is a woman (or more than one) out “there” who can’t wait to be with you. Someone who adores you just as you adore her. You don’t have to change yourself just so she will love you. She will love you as you are. Believe it. Feel it – and it will be yours.

You deserve it.

Just because you love this woman you’ve set your sights on doesn’t mean you can’t love another! Instead, use the love you feel to create and attract an even better match. Let go emotionally of being with THIS particular woman. In fact, I’d encourage you to ask her point blank whether she is romantically interested in you or not, and to let her know that it is OK if she isn’t because you’ll learn to move on. You just need to know the truth. Women have a way of not telling the truth because they don’t want to hurt your feelings.

If you can show her that you are “man” (i.e. strong) enough to take the truth, you’ll get it. She needs to know you won’t crumble. And it’s about time that you free yourself of anything and anyone who would slow your growth into the love you desire.

Change is happening much faster in our world now. You cannot “afford” to keep waiting for your life to happen. You deserve to experience life and love like never before.

For your growth and education, I’d highly recommend that you read books by David Deida: www.deida.info especially, The Way of the Superior Man, which you can find in my Law of Attraction in Love Bookstore. When you start to resonate at your most enlightened masculine self, you’d be AMAZED at the women (and the quality of women) you attract! Best to you Joseph!

Blessings,
Dr. Karen Kan

Dear Dr. Karen,

Thanks,
Too confused to understand Men!

Dear “Too Confused”,

I can see how frustrated you are with this situation. It is as if this man is two different people. One the phone and through email and messages he is attractive in every way and attentive and loving. But in person, he is scared, distant and totally unavailable!

Well, this is a painful lesson for you. People can often use the “safety” of distance (not face-to-face) contact to express their fantasies, but eventually, a relationship needs to be able to grow past all that. This man you attracted is far from ready to be attentive to you in “real” life. He lives in a fantasy world online and you just happen to fall into a trap. It isn’t that he meant for it to be a trap, it is just that his world is not REAL.

You deserve a REAL relationship with someone who is willing to be who he REALLY is face-to-face with you. This Italian man is clearly very shy and has not had much practice in being in real relationships. He is intimidated, but that is not your fault. You do not have to make yourself smaller just so he can feel more confident. He is like a child at this point…not meaning any harm, but not able either to be an ADULT in the relationship.

You have lots of red flags here that are telling you to abandon the relationship as soon as possible. The fact that you still linger means that on the subconscious level, your self-esteem is low and that you do not feel you deserve better..otherwise you would have dropped him like a hot potato and moved on.

But it’s OK if you haven’t yet. Be gentle and compassionate with yourself. Understand that by hoping he would change, you are asking someone to be who they are not…which is not very loving or attractive. This is how you use the Law of Attraction. Let go of what clearly isn’t serving you (otherwise you give the message to the Universe that you deserve to be treated in a way that is less than loving). Then start again with your wish list and ADD the criteria to the list you missed in your first “try”.

So you may wish to add, “a man that is able and willing to connect with me on a mature level” or something even more specific.

By letting go of this relationship, you will harness the law of attraction by giving the message that this is NOT good enough for you. Move on. That means ending the relationship. Don’t even stay friends since you’re still feeling hurt. It is energy that is draining you from your true desires. Just let him know that after your meeting, you’ve realized that you’re both not on the same page and that you need to move on and make a clean break. Wish him well, then say goodbye. It isn’t easy, and he’ll rebel, but it is the best for both of you. Be strong.

You need to learn you deserve more and he needs to learn (for his own benefit) that a fantasy love life doesn’t serve either of you in the end.

If you need help with that, seek the help of a coach like myself or a counselor. I believe in you.

Blessings,
Dr. Karen
P.S. If you haven’t done so already, please connect with me on Twitter and FaceBook!

Dr. Karen,

Anna

Dear Anna,

Great question Anna. Let me rephrase it. It sounds like you’ve read that you only need to ask The Universe once in order to manifest your wish. At the same time, after reading my article, you perceived that you must think about your wish over and over again in order to manifest it. Is that right?

OK, here’s how it works, at least in my understanding. What is true is that you only need to ASK the Universe one time for your wish. Then, after asking, or in other words, setting your intention, you need to let it go.

And here’s where you need to pay attention!

What you need to let go of is the ATTACHMENT to your wish coming true. What you DON’T let go of is the passion, excitement and energy directed towards your dream/wish/intention.

When you order from the menu in a restaurant, you order once and then wait patiently for your meal to come, don’t you? You enjoy your wait. You don’t fret ever two minutes why your meal hasn’t come yet nor do you ask the waiter countless times whether he got your order. But you know what most of us do? We fret about our “order”!

When we set intentions, sometimes we lose faith that our “order” will come, so we either ask again and again out of anxiety, or we change course (change our minds). The latter is very common. I’ve witness many people discover a dream they wish to manifest. They become all fired up about it. But within a short period of time, they lose their faith and stop pursuing their dreams. Why? Because they don’t trust themselves to be completely responsible for CREATING their dreams.

Now, what I (and many others) teach is that once you set your intention, your focus needs to stay on your target (final outcome) or wish. You are not asking. You are planning for it. You don’t let distractions or obstacles prevent you from believing in your dream and taking the next step towards it.

I’ll give you an example. Say your wish is to swim with the dolphins. Once you’ve chosen the details of your wish, what do you do next? (please read the rest on my blog) Do you sit on the couch and watch movies all day? Will that get you closer to your dream? No, of course not. Will looking at pictures and movies about swimming with dolphins help? Yes, because they will get you in the vibration of already having experienced it (to the best of your imagination). But you need more than that.

Doing embodying exercises (see Chapter 2 in the eBook) will help you get into the vibration of having received. That is an “inner world” exercise. Then doing the “outer world” exercises of taking action in the real world take it to the next level. You cannot just have one without the other.

Your next step is “acting as if”. Your ACTIONS determine what happens. The Universe responds to the amount of energy you put forth in the direction of your wish. In our example, you would go and search the internet for dolphin experiences or search a travel guide. You would check out plane ticket costs, book time off from work, save money towards the trip etc. As the saying goes,

“Where attention goes, energy flows and results show”

Hope that clears up your confusion about the Law of Attraction and intention setting.

Blessings
Dr. Karen Kan
