Are you there?

Yes, we are here.

In our last conversation, we spoke about the importance of focus in the manifestation process. And in an earlier conversation, we examined the use of creative visualization. In both of those discussions, we touched on another key element in the creative process, but we never explored it in depth, and that is the art of allowing.

The art of allowing is indeed a vital part of the creative process. We would be happy to discuss this topic with you in more detail.

Let’s start with how and where the art of allowing fits into the process of manifestation.

First, let us be clear as to what the art of allowing is. In simple terms, allowing is the polar opposite of resistance. These two states alternate within your energy field from one moment to the next depending on your thoughts and your intention. The first – allowing – is a function of your natural alignment with the well-spring of Source energy that flows continuously through and around your physical form. A state or mindset of allowing does just what it says it does – it allows Source energy to flow into your energy field. It is one of the primary characteristics of your true and loving self. The other – resistance – is the opposite of allowing and arises directly out of the ego-fear state. Resistance stops the flow of Source energy, or rather impedes it, as the flow of Source energy into your physical form can never be completely stopped. That occurs only when an incarnated being makes the choice to leave its form and return to non-physical. The important point to remember is that when you are in a state of complete allowing, Source energy flows effortlessly into your energy field. When you are in a state of resistance, that flow is pinched off or otherwise obstructed. As Source energy is the primary creative force in the Universe, your success or lack of success in manifesting what you desire depends a great deal on whether you are in a state of allowing or in a state of resistance.

So at exactly what point in the creative process does allowing or resistance come into play?

Throughout. Ideally, anyone seeking to manifest or create something they desire is in a state of allowing from the very start of the process. Usually, that happens naturally. Otherwise, no desire would ever arise within your consciousness. It is only after you have become aware of a desire that your state of allowing begins to fluctuate, depending on the nature of your desire and the beliefs you hold around its possible manifestation.

How can we tell if we are in a state of allowing or in a state of resistance?

By how you feel. In general terms, allowing feels good and resistance feels bad, comparable to how you feel when you abide in either a loving state or a state of fear. If this arrangement seems simplistic, that is because it is intended to be. This “emotional guidance system” has been purposefully designed to easily assist you in recognizing the moment-to-moment state of your alignment with Source.

Can’t we tell whether or not we are allowing or resisting the flow of Source energy by monitoring our own thoughts? For example, if a desire for more money arises within us, but we immediately start to think to ourselves, “Yeah, it would be great if I had a million dollars, but what are the chances? I’ll never be rich. I don’t even deserve to be rich. Besides, how am I going to get a million dollars anyway? Oh, let’s just forget it.” It’s pretty clear from this line of thinking that we are in a state of resistance when it comes to manifesting more funds.

That is true. And we are not saying that your thinking, if you are aware of it, is not a good indicator of the beliefs that you may hold in relation to manifesting what you desire. But perhaps you do not realize that the mind of the typical human person processes over 70,000 thoughts every single day and so it is difficult to keep track of every single one. An emotional guidance system provides a simpler way to monitor your thoughts and gauge your alignment. When you are feeling good about yourself and the world around you, and holding thoughts that match those feelings, then you are in alignment and in a state of allowing. When you feel less than good and are holding thoughts that are less than positive, you are out of alignment and in a state of resistance. These states do waver, of course, and express themselves to varying degrees, but given the often rapid, multitudinous nature of human thought, a simple emotional guidance system is a much more effective and reliable means of assessing your alignment.

The logical question then is how do we keep ourselves in a state of allowing and avoid slipping into a state of resistance?

By doing the work that we have been exploring throughout our conversations together.

Of course. That only makes sense. As you have said many times, we are here to remember who we really are and why we have come. We are creators and our ability to create relies on our state of allowance or resistance. In the end, it’s all about the work. Finding ways to remember the loving, open, compassionate, peaceful, wise, creative, glorious beings of light we truly are. And while there is no quick and easy formula to finding our way to that place, there is still a great deal we can do. We can love and appreciate who we are and what we have; we can embrace our desires and hone our creative abilities; we can calm our minds and open our hearts; we can increase our awareness, tap our inner resources, seek guidance when we need it; we can nurture our bodies, sharpen our senses, keep our thoughts strong and positive; we can respect others and practice forgiveness; we can acknowledge and affirm our own deserving natures; we can allow good to flow into our lives while keeping our fears and our resistance in check; and above all, we can enjoy ourselves and have fun. Yes, there is a great deal that we can do, much of which we have explored in our conversations together, and for that, I am truly grateful.

As are we.

I think this might be a good place to stop for today.

As you wish. Until next time.

Thank you all.
