the pink bubble technique

Last week after reading the article in the times online, about the top ten most inspiring reads, I bought ‘Creative Visualization’ by Shakti Gawain. Well, what a fantastic book! It’s packed full of techniques you can utilise, bascially it shows us how to visualise a change that you would like to happen in your life, then goes through step by step how to achieve it!!

My favourite technique, so far is called ‘the pink bubble technique’ taken from Gawain’s book page 98

” Sit lie down comfortably, close your eyes and breathe deeply, slowly and naturally. Gradually relax deeper and deeper.

Imagine something that you would really like to happen. Imagine that it has already happened.

Picture it as clearly as possible  in your mind. 

Now in your minds eye, surround your fantasy with a pink bubble; put your goal inside your bubble. Pink is the colour associated with the heart and if this colour vibration, surrounds whatever you visualise, it will bring to you what is perfect affinity with your being.

 The third step is to let go of your bubble and imagine it floating of into the universe, still containing your vision. This symbolises that emotionally you are ‘letting go’ of it. Now it is free to float  around in the universe, attracting and gathering energy for its manifestation!!  

This really does work, last week after I quit work, I tried this, I visualised going back to my old job and magically its has worked!! :) I will be using the pink bubble again!

I have had such a strange week!  I started my new job last week and I only spent two days there. It was terrible and very stressful. The whole team seemed to be in crisis mode and chaos prevailed! Even hubby told me to quit, so after much fretting and worrying I did, I quit! I was very relieved, but began worrying that I would not get another job!!!

After being off for two days, I got a phone call from my old boss, who is totally lovely, she asked me to go back! I felt awfull because they all bought my leaving pressies just two weeks ago! I am going in on Monday morning  to sign another contract and then I will go back when ds2 goes back to school on the 25th! 

To say I am relieved, is an understatement :)
