EXCUSE ME, YOUR LIFE IS WAITING
This book, written by Lynn Grabhorn, presents a captivating premise. The author states that all of us are electromagnets that attract good things or bad things according to our vibration. She compares people to tuning forks, which respond only to another tuning fork on the same frequency. Happy feelings are on a high frequency--worry and fear on a low frequency. However we FEEL about something, we attract like situations, people and circumstances. This is the law of attraction. She compares our lives to a room full of tuning forks, all set to different frequencies, and sending out conflicting vibrations. No wonder our lives are often full of discord and chaos!
She says it's not what we THINK about something; it's how we FEEL about it. On page 55, she writes, "It takes only six-teen seconds to link up vibrationally to whatever we're focusing on... In that brief time we start to vibrate on the same frequency as whatever it is we've been emotionally thinking about ..."
She offers several ways to change our focus--such as a simple smile, and actively practicing appreciation. At the end of the book is a helpful list of do's and don'ts. One of my favorites is on page 300: Replace your "things to do" list with a "things to feel" list.
Grabhorn is also the author of, Beyond the Twelve Steps: Roadmap to a New Life. She writes in a light-hearted humorous style that is enlightening and yet easy to follow.
