Today we’re talking about energy shifts and Law of Attraction. More specifically, we’re talking about why there is so often a time delay between wanting to make an energy shift and when it actually seems to happen.
I think the main reason that trying to raise your vibrational energy level takes so long sometimes is that people tend to try and force it; we want to make that shift so badly that we build up all sorts of resistance in the process. In other words, we get too focused on the “why-oh-why hasn’t it happened yet when I’m trying so hard to make it happen” that we can’t make the shift. We try too hard, and then we get sucked into the negative-feeling aspects of not being able to manifest what we want as quickly as we want; we start to worry that we’re “not doing it right”, so we start to push against the vibration we’re currently in, and we end up getting ourselves stuck there (because what we resist persists).
And then we start getting crafty. We try to scheme our way through the shift, thinking that if we just understand enough about how it works, we’ll figure out a faster way to do it. But there are no shortcuts in energy work – it happens when it’s ready to happen; when you are ready for it to happen, and not a moment sooner. And being ready is a feeling thing, not a thinking thing.
We need to trust ourselves and trust the process, because energy shifts tend to work best when we just let go; when stop pushing at it and worrying about it…

This was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! Worth listening to again and again, every morning!
Indeed, trusting the process does not go over well with some of us. Yet, I know we have to let it go and be like ‘whatever”. Good for those who reach their goals and dreams quicker. I do admire them and that is great! But you are right, we create resistance when we compare and questions “why not me?” and “when will it finally happen, darn it?” These questions do not even sound good now that I ask them, actually. They do seem a bit off.
Thanks!
Nathalie,
I was also going to ask how we can facilitate such shifts in happening. I guess reading books on stress management like the one you have available, thinking about good times, doing things we enjoy and like, looking forward to the future and on great things to come, knowing we are deserving and wonderful, really knowing this. Feeling like a loser takes you out of the good vibe. With LOA, I am beginning to understand that we truly are deserving and will be deserving; feeling like a loser from he circumstances around you will lead you in that direction, but feeling wonderful will allow you to have wonderful experiences.
We are part of source energy, yes, but we freaking forget this! The universe is also skewed towards the positive, so it is not totally balanced; the positive outweighs the negative by 2 degrees and this is so wonderful, because doesn’t it kind of tell us that things do work out eventually, no matter what? It must tell us something. I forgot the reason mentioned for this skew; I think it was a “precautionary” measure by source or something.
Exactly. What you are focused on is what you tend to bring about in your life. If you’re constantly focused on how you don’t measure up to people around you, how you never seem to be able to make things happen for yourself the way you want them to, how you never quite seem to reach the bar… these are all negative-feeling thoughts that just serve to keep you stuck in that kind of energy. The universe responds to your meaning and your feelings. And if you’re sending out that kind of vibe, that’s what’s going to keep happening in your life. Shift your thoughts, energy and feelings to things like” “I’m making progress”, “things are really starting to go well for me”, etc. and then that is what you’ll start attracting into your life. And as you start seeing more and more evidence, the effect will get stronger and stronger because you’ll really start feeling the power that your own thoughts have.
Every path is unique, and just because your path isn’t the same as someone else’s doesn’t mean that it isn’t the right path for you. It’s the perfect path for you or you wouldn’t even be on it. It’s really hard to let go of our impatience sometimes, but I’ve found that the better I am able to do that, the more smoothly things seem to flow. It’s all part of the process… even learning to deal with the resistance. 🙂
