BEING WITH ABUNDANCE Part 1

This is a two-part post. Part 2 follows later this week.

Last month my house help - let's call her A - was to go on a month-long leave (a fairly big deal in most households in India!), and our search for a back-up - me and A keeping up an active search for two whole weeks -  was not yielding anything (or anyone). 

While A was very concerned for me, but I was at ease, choosing to anchor into abundance and trust rather than lack - 'it will work itself out' rather than hitting panic mode.

Sure enough, two back-up options showed up on the absolute last day that A was to leave. 

There is a belief/practice that I recently came across, and am learning to apply it to situations such as these - Certainty (or trust) beyond logic. 

When logic tells me that there is no obvious solution, or that I should worry, panic or take stress, that's exactly when I go deeper with my trust in the Universe, and in the belief that 'I am loved, held and guided'.

In my experience, practicing such beliefs in not too personal situations (like the one shared here) prepares us to anchor into them in personally/professionally trying times.

The lesson that I've discovered is this - The Universe keeps sending us small and big 'testing scenarios' to allow us an opportunity to deepen our trust. If we choose to operate from a 'lack' mindset we completely miss this opportunity, but an abundance mindset leads to exactly that - abundance! (More about that in the next part)

When was the last time that you intentionally chose to anchor into abundance rather than lack?

Picture: This - amongst many others - is my idea of abundance....that I get to call these three family is a blessing that I count every single day :)
