Then Michael went on to share that Linda and I are both stepping into a new life lesson of believing we are worthy of receiving the abundance that the universe has to offer and more specifically in our case releasing the belief that we are unworthy. Can you relate to this?

Several days later I was reviewing a few of my Co-Creation models and I found myself compelled to change the language from “I want …” to “I am worthy of…” and it was like an internal switch was turned on. What I recognized in that moment was I shifted from co-creating from my ego (and sense of lack) to my heart and out of love of myself. And then it was crazy — within 10 hours things started to come in and I consciously focused on opening up to receiving from this new belief of feeling worthy.

If this resonates with you, I invite you to just practice adjusting your language slightly and as often as you can say “I am worthy” then enjoy the unfolding.

In appreciation,

Nancy

As spirits embodied, it is natural and highly desirable for you to manifest (Co-Create) that which brings you joy in the physical dimension. Your desire to manifest is in no way a selfish thing, but a magnificent aspect of who you are!

In an effort to help you manifest with greater joy and ease, we offer three simple suggestions. If you consider each carefully and practice with intention, you will feel blockages in your energy unlocking and releasing; and as a result, more of your desires naturally flowing into your life:

1. Co-Create With An Open Heart. Remember that your heart’s desires (not your ego’s) form the basis for what you really need.If you are Co-Creating from fear (ego), you will find manifesting to be a challenge. If you are Co-Creating from love (heart), manifesting will become increasingly easy.

2. Gain Clarity About “What” vs. “How.” Knowing what you want and articulating it clearlyis much more important than determining how it should come into reality. In fact, if you get too controlling about how something is supposed to present itself, you will likely to create barriers to its entry – simply because control is an ego-based illusion. Knowing what you want and staying open to how it presents itself will serve you on all levels.

3. Engage Your Energy Consciously. Co-Creation requires not only the energy of the Universe mobilizing, but also your own. Once you are clear about what you want, become equally clear about how you will consciously focus
your energy in order to bring it into being. Know that just a bit of focused energy is far more effective that a huge amount of scattered energy.

We invite you to experiment with these suggestions and to go easy on yourself. Co-Creation, like many other things, requires practice. Do not judge your results harshly. Try to stay open and bring your joy to the moment – because the greater the joy, the greater your results shall be.

Love,

Michael
