Childhood “Programming” and The Law of Attraction

As of late, my life has had a bit of extra contrast in it. This co-creation thing can be VERY hard at times. It is relatively easy for me to keep my thoughts going downstream when I am off by myself, but when I am interacting with important people in my life, it seems that I find myself going upstream as much as downstream. Knowing what I do about the Law of Attraction, it really frazzles me because I KNOW that how I am thinking and acting is not getting me to where I want to be, but it is almost like automatic programming.

When someone acts in a certain way, I have an automatic, negatively charged, emotional reaction to it. That reaction, when I have time to remove myself from the situation and logically look at what is going on, is usually tied in with vibrations that are dredged up from an earlier time in my life, usually from childhood. It seems that when we are children, we look towards our parents to define who we are and what our worth is. When you have a childhood filled with interactions which are variable and filled with turmoil, those interactions seem to leave a vibrational legacy that you carry with you through life.

This quote from a recent Abraham CD really summed it up for me:

Every time you feel negative emotion, that negative emotion is your indicator that you have got some thought, active within you, that is keeping you from going with the flow. We like that “some thought active within you”. Anything you give your attention to is vibrating and as you give your attention to it, you activate a vibration within you and when you activate that vibration within you, that’s one of those two points of vibrational relativity. So if you’ve got something activated within you that says:

I’m not enough or
I’m not smart or
I did something wrong or
It’s not going to happen for me or
I’m not loved or
I’m not worthy.

Any of those ridiculous things that you think of on a pretty regular basis. As you get one of those things activated within you, it is so cross current of your stream and the most interesting thing of all is that YOU are the one who is responsible for your stream moving as fast as it is. Do you get that?

Abraham-Hicks CD 3/3/07 - San Rafael CA Track 3 “Had Enough of “not enoughness”".

Check. Check. Check. Yep, I can identify with several of those “ridiculous things”. These beliefs seem to creep up on me over and over again and color my understanding of the interactions I am having. I am trying to work my way through them all. Sometimes I am successful, and sometimes not. It all seems so hard to break that childhood programming and reprogram myself to what I truly am. I KNOW I am worthy. I KNOW I am loved. That little child in me, doesn’t though, and gets my attention every time with those fears and ingrained beliefs.

“Oh Worthy Beings that you are, if we could zap you with anything it would be, there is no assertion so don’t worry (humorously), if we could zap you with anything, we’ve been working on it for centuries (humorously), if we could ZAP you with anything it would be with an understanding of your value and worthiness because if you just knew that when you ask it is given and you could stand in that expectant place there would not be that contradiction between you and you.”

I am open to that zapping

I have been contemplating what types of things I can do in order to remove the emotional charge from those beliefs or totally reprogramming myself.

A couple of possibilities that can help clear that emotional baggage that can disconnect you are:

EFT - Emotional Freedom Techniques

I have seen EFT work for me and my family, but I need more practice with it. I have all the DVD’s and am in process of viewing them. I am also working with an EFT practitioner (who is also a social worker) but we haven’t really done much in regards to this all yet. I am seeing her to help me through the relationship contrast that is currently at work.

I would love to see some tapping scripts that are affirmation based which deal with the core issues that Abraham has pointed out many many times. And if while tapping, someone remembers a specific situation in their past that brings up those feelings, then tapping on that specifically can be done, thus neutralizing it.

Quoting Gary Craig:

“That notwithstanding, affirmations are usually front and center in the vast array of “you are what you think” books and carry with them some hard to argue with logic. Simply stated, the persistent repetition of an affirmation conditions the mind to see things differently. The affirmation eventually becomes installed as a consistent thought which then shows up in our reality. Our consistent thoughts become our reality. Very simple. To the point. Easy to use. Affirmations are the real sleepers in our Personal Performance Toolkit and we are about to wake them up.”

Seems like a good way to go

Hypnosis

I think I will send an email to Wendi.com about this one as I don’t think she has anything available at the moment that deals with the negative programming that so many appear to have. I have used several of her CDs and they worked for me.

Sedona Method

I don’t know anything about this method, except for what it says on their website.

The Sedona Method is a unique, simple, powerful, easy-to-learn and duplicate technique that shows you how to uncover your natural ability to let go of any painful or unwanted feeling in the moment. The Sedona Method consists of a series of questions you ask yourself that lead your awareness to what you are feeling in the moment and gently guide you into the experience of letting go.

It sounds good. Anyone have any experience with it?

Feel free to share what has helped you I’m all ears!
