Receiving and the Law of Attraction

by Amanda Owen

If you want something whether to meet the love of your life, get a great job or increase your financial stability you need to know how to receive them because the world can only give what you can receive. Yet most people have not received an education about how to receive or how even to think about it.

Lately, there is a lot of talk about the Law of Attraction with the movie and book The Secret by Rhonda Byrne getting a lot of attention as well as the book The Law of Attraction: The Basics of the Teachings of Abraham by Jerry and Esther Hicks. In this short article I want to connect a few dots about the link between the Law of Attraction and the topic of Receptivity and how being a skilled Receiver can help you receive what ever it is that you have attracted.

To receive is to be open, aware and responsive to how life speaks to you. The Law of Attraction is about attracting. Yet, if you are not attentive to how life speaks and relates to you, you may not be able to draw what you want toward you because you have missed the signals and information that would be helpful to you.

The Law of Attraction works for those who know how to be attractive. So, ask yourself what makes you attractive? But first consider the following: Go here for the full article The Law of Attraction

You Know How to Give
Do You Know How to Receive?

by Amanda Owen 

You’ve been working all day. Actually you’ve put in some overtime because your co-worker had an emergency (again) and now you are home looking in the refrigerator wondering if you have enough energy to cook something for dinner or if you should just call the pizza delivery guy.

This wouldn’t be so bad if it were a once in a blue moon thing, but the depressing truth is this is an overly familiar situation.

“Why,” you wonder, “am I so available to help people out, but when I need time off it seems like everybody is AWOL. And also,” now you’re warming up, “how come I am the go-to person every time someone needs something?”

Does the above sound familiar? If not, congratulate yourself because your giving and receiving is in balance, meaning that sometimes you are the Giver and other times the Receiver. If this is you, your natural state is to feel physically rested, mentally alert and engaged, emotionally content and spiritually fulfilled.

If the above paragraph doesn’t represent your life even a little bit, keep reading. Go here for the full article: You Know How to Give; Do You Know How to Receive?

 

The Power of Receiving and How it Will Revolutionize Your Life

By Amanda Owen

Many of us have been taught the importance and value of giving. But what about receiving? Is it better to give than receive? Or, are they equally important? To achieve a goal or to manifest a dream, it makes sense that you need to know how to receive it. Yet, the truth is that many people are terrible receivers. They are uncomfortable accepting a compliment, they don’t let people pick up the restaurant check and they never ask for help.

Yet, who could argue that the following people, among many, would not benefit from relationships and lives that include their own needs, desires and dreams?

  • single parents trying to balance work and care for their children with a social life

  • those looking after an elderly parent

  • people to whom everybody turns when they need help

  • individuals who habitually rescue and enable troubled people

  •  nurses, counselors, social workers, and others in the helping fields

Over-extended giving seems to be epidemic in a culture such as ours that has a high value on a pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps approach to life and little value for expressing the need for help. Its opposite is as firmly entrenched in the behavior of lazy, entitled users and takers, such as spouses who don’t contribute financially, children who resent being asked to help with household chores and slacker coworkers who disappear when there is work to be done.

While the Giver archetype is firmly entrenched in our culture, its opposite the Receiver is almost wholly unfamiliar. Has anyone ever praised someone by saying, “So-and-so is a wonderful Receiver!” Yet, the act of receiving is the natural, healthy complement to giving.
