What to do if it feels like meditation is a waste of time?

What to do if it feels like meditation is a waste of time?

(What I learned from Mooji)

Meditation was ALWAYS a huge struggle for me.

Even now that I literally never have to work again if I don’t want to… I still feel a voice in me telling me I’m wasting time if I just be present with God in meditation.

This is VERY normal, lol. It is our brain’s job to just keep feeding thoughts… that ultimately distract us from our true self. It’s just not a problem.

Mooji said it brilliantly, “This ‘seemingly passive’ action generates tremendous power.”

He was referring to putting everything down. Your past, your questions, your needs, desires and fidgeting… and simply BE.
In this being… we are one with the God frequency… and we just BE with it… and eventually AS it.

“This ‘seemingly passive’ action generates tremendous power.”
This phrase has really helped me in my journey… the powerful fruits it bears are peace, JOY, love, harmony, wisdom… abundance…

“Just from sitting there Mandy?”
Well yes… but we aren’t just sitting there like when we watch tv… we are actively IDENTIFYING as the God frequency… which begins with letting EVERYTHING go.

And as we sit there AS AWARENESS… we become very conscious of the never-ending demands and distractions of the mind and body. Good lord. Sometimes I just tweak out like I am the brain and just rant 100 different demands 100 miles an hour just to acknowledge to myself that IT IS INSANE and that THAT CAN’T BE IT hahahahaha.

It gives me the courage to let go… of all of it.
My past, my ideas, my needs, my sense of time… my “How do I do this” feelings…

I let it ALL GO.
My brain then feeds… How How How?
And I laugh and recognize it. There’s Ego trying to stay alive and distract you from your POWER.

Your God frequency where ego can’t live.
So every time I can see it I feel waves of gratitude that I CAN SEE IT!
It’s a good thing! I’m awakening!
And then when I am done my brain shouts… Now what? Now what? Now what? LOL

To which I recognize is Ego, yet again. And I breathe… let it all go and keep walking.
…and that very part of us right now that goes… ya but then what??

That’s it. Right there lol. THAT’S EGO.

That’s what pulls us away from our true power.

#Egoisbusted

Our true power lies in everything that is BEYOND that ranting.
And there is only ONE way to experience it. lol.
I love you!

I claim right now with you that our awareness of our true God frequency self is illuminated through grace in the perfect way!!

THRIVING never takes away from your kids, health or romantic partner…

THRIVING never takes away from your kids, health or romantic partner…

(you know it’s true that thriving never takes away from your kids, health or romantic partner, yet you are not experiencing it… why?)

I was taught this as I scaled my wealth and business… only I WASN’T fully experiencing it ongoing… and of course it did take away from these things…

But….. IT IS ACTUALLY true… Thriving DOES NOT take away from our health, wealth or time… so why was it still feeling like not every need was being met while I took the time, resources and space I needed to thrive?

That is very simple. lol

Because I was trusting ME to provide for them all, not God. IT IS TRUE. When I thrive I have so much more to give to everything and everyone around me…

But the BELIEF that I was solely responsible for everyone’s needs was causing me to have an experience of needs not being met.

Which creates a LIE.
The LIE is Thriving = sacrifice, depletion, or disconnection.

LIE. LIE. LIE.

Truth?
** The same power that created the stars and ocean is alive in me… and I am limitless in him. **
** When you are willing to receive thriving, the whole Universe conspires to bring you your good.**

Say it with me!!!!

I reject the lie that thriving equals sacrifice, depletion, or disconnection. That is not my story anymore. Thriving is my natural state. Thriving is not heavy – it is light, joyful, and free. Thriving does not take from me; it gives to me. When I thrive, I become more of who God created me to be. My health thrives because my body knows how to heal and regenerate. My relationships thrive because love flows naturally when I am aligned with my joy. My purpose work thrives because I am in tune with the abundance and guidance of the Divine.

Thriving isn’t hard; it’s effortless when I allow myself to be supported by God. It’s not something I need to force or figure out – it’s who I am. I am worthy of ease. I am worthy of overflow. I am worthy of having enough time, enough energy, enough money, and enough love. I am worthy of waking up every day in alignment with peace and power.

I no longer believe that thriving comes with a cost. Thriving is not a trade-off, it’s a flow. The more I pour into myself, the more I have to give to others. The more I prioritize my health, my joy, and my alignment, the better I am as a mother, as a partner, and as a guide in my purpose work. Taking care of myself is not selfish – it’s sacred.

Every time I choose to show up for myself, I show up for the people I love. Every time I move my body, nourish it with food, and honor its needs, I am creating a vessel for God to work through. Every time I step into my purpose, I’m aligning with the divine assignment on my life. And every time I allow myself to rest, to laugh, to experience joy, I am giving thanks for the gift of being alive.

I reject the overwhelm and the lie that it’s all too much. It’s not too much – it’s exactly what I was made for. God doesn’t give me more than I can handle. And He doesn’t ask me to do it all alone. I release the belief that I have to figure it all out, and I trust that everything is unfolding perfectly. I don’t need to push – I just need to receive.

Thriving is safe. Thriving is natural. Thriving is my birthright. I align with thriving in every area of my life. My health radiates vitality. My relationships are overflowing with love and connection. My work is an expression of my soul’s purpose. My finances flow with abundance, and I am free to enjoy my life fully.

Today, I choose thriving. I choose joy. I choose ease. I choose trust. I let go of every belief that says I need to sacrifice myself to have a good life. I am creating a life where it all gets to coexist – health, wealth, love, freedom, and spiritual alignment. This is the truth I live by now. Thriving is who I am. Thriving is how I show up. Thriving is how I lead. And it just keeps getting better.

AND SO IT IS!!!
Amen.

“If I don’t do it, no one will…”

“If I don’t do it, no one will…”

No one else knows how to do it as good as you, as quickly and effectively as you… right?

So you always have to do it yourself… and there’s just not enough time in a day…

Oh my gosh! Even just saying these old words gives me a stomach ache… but I remember OH SO CLEARLY when life felt this way.

It’s all TOTAL CRAP.
And if you don’t have the courage to face that… it won’t change.

It’s crap. I know because I faced it and changed it in every single area of my life… thank gawddd.

It’s nothing more than a conditioned limitation you’ve wired in through scarcity and survival… from trauma.

Every belief is nothing more than something we’ve told ourselves over and over again.

You deserve life to feel as magical as IT IS.
You get to feel spaciousness, joy and awe & wonder… every day of your life… and you get to have a life that is designed to produce this joy… BUT YOU MUST CHOOSE IT.

Which means choosing beliefs and behaviors that create it.

Here is a new mantra: “I never have to do things more than 3 times.”

  1. I do it to master it myself.
  2. I do it to capture how to do it.
  3. I teach someone to do it.

But…
But I don’t have the time! (No, you haven’t had the PATIENCE). And that’s because you haven’t seen the value of doing it. If I told you that you’d get $100k for doing it you’d all of a sudden have all the time and motivation needed. So it’s not ABSENT.

Forget for one second the RESULT and reward of being this intentional… and remember how it FEELS to be someone who does things with excellence.

YOU GET TO FEEL THIS GOOD. #theend

Our work?
Stop. Breathe. Tell the whole truth about what’s not working and what needs to happen.

Remind ourselves that it feels so magical and epic to BE THE HUMAN Who does things with excellence… and keep breathing… lol…
and freekin do it.
The end.

When we show up at 100% life becomes VERY EFFORTLESS.
When we keep giving 60% and complaining and playing the victim life feels… like treading water.

So there’s no right or wrong.
There’s just a life that feels aligned and magical, and one that feels like crap.

Your choice.

Love,
Mandy

Longing to serve

Longing to serve

I long to serve with every ounce of my strength…

I yearn to LOVE in a way that is free of self-preference and self-preservation.

…. And that takes physical, emotional and spiritual strength.

It means eating well.
It means working out daily.
It means strong relentless boundaries with toxic people.
It means praying and protecting myself every morning before I pray for others.

… facing the toxic vanity culture we live in and choosing to not participate.

It means standing beside powerful, extraordinary humans and not comparing.

… choosing to train my children so we have a peaceful family life.
… keeping my commitments.
… and doing what I can now, today, this moment.

It means going the extra mile in my own home.
The extra mile taking care of myself…
My family.
My home.
My personal space.
And my partner.

It means shifting from trying to get everyone on my timeline and getting on theirs.
It means looking for opportunities to help.
It means seeing them in their greatness and endlessly reflecting it back to them.

IT MEANS NO COMPLAINING.
No going into the fear.
No giving into the temptation that promises relief… and gives chaos.

It means to get still.
Listen.
And obey.

It means remembering every waking second that my true strength comes from God… and doing my best to align my powerful WILL to God’s as I walk.

It means remembering that LOVE is the teacher, not me.
It’s remembering LOVE is a verb.
It’s remembering that being able to LOVE is an incredible honor and gift that brings deep joy in the end.

And every day I see myself strengthen in this new way just a little.
And a little bit more.
And a little bit more.

It’s a dream come true.

Manifesting a man to provide for me…

Manifesting a man to provide for me…

I’m learning to allow myself to have BOTH, the man who provides for me and my own wealth…

So… I always held the frequency that I always make more money. The end… and so I did.

I held the frequency that I make it rapidly. Like makes-no-sense rapidly. And so I did. I went from my first month coaching making $4k to $40k the next month. I never did $10k months.
And I simply kept increasing from there until I had an $82k DAY.

And this all made sense to me in my own little world. lol
I surrounded myself with others doing the same.

UNTIL… one day I found myself in a very painful and uncomfortable place… without recognizing what was happening.

I met Gregg and I had essentially lived the last year off of all the built-up payment plans… and it was now starting to decrease… $60k months… $50k… $40… $30…

And every time I went to go do my magic I just froze.
I didn’t want to.
The burst of endless energy wasn’t there.

And I remembered what my mama had taught me.
God gives you the grace to do what he asks you to do.
When it’s removed HE removed it.

Obviously, I had a major temper tantrum about this… I was so confused. “OK GOD… IF YOU AREN’T GOING TO PROVIDE FOR ME FINANCIALLY THEN WHAT?!”

I mean I was completely pissed!
HE ALWAYS provided for me. ALWAYS.

I’ll never forget Gregg coming alongside me asking me if he could help financially. I was horrified lol. Exactly ZERO part of me was ok with that. It was completely unfamiliar… and felt like a trap. One I wanted nothing to do with.

I don’t remember exactly but I’m sure I gave a very sharp reply at the time… and explained that that’s not how manifestation works and not how I work. LOL (omg this is a bit embarrassing to recount lol)

So 2-3 months later… same thing happening… $20k months… still no YES in my body to go manifest it. To go create it. NOTHING can interfere with manifesting $. NOTHING.

YET something clearly was. I was lost.

….

The second time he asked me I said yes while I bawled. He just held me. This man knew something I did not.

He knew what it was to PROVIDE for a woman.
He knew what it meant to HOLD her in his provisions.
He knew what it was to PROTECT her from her own self-sufficiency.

But I knew nothing of this.
It was so friggin unfamiliar to my entire system that I couldn’t see God was answering my prayers.

I could ONLY SEE the answer if it was something familiar.
If my business produces a shocking amount of money out of nowhere.
If checks came in the mail in the amounts of hundreds of thousands from the craziest stories.
Refunds.
Free things.

A MAN PROVIDING FOR ME?
The only association I had with that was “trapped”… he will use it to gain power over me and manipulate me.

God was healing me and I was putting up the FIGHT OF MY LIFE. lol

And ONLY Source could have created such magic for Gregg and I.
Gregg had only known providing without being shown any gratitude for it and being taken advantage of through it.

I had only known someone wanting power over me or using me for my provisions.

And just like that… 1 mile away from each other… God brought us together and we began to heal.
He was asking me to BE PROVIDED for by a man with a pure heart who loves me.

And he was asking Gregg to provide for a woman who would endlessly appreciate his efforts… and would use the provisions to grow and heal rather than use them for superficial advancements.

WOHHHHHHH.
Who would have thought that we COULD BOTH heal from this major change in both of our lives. I mean Gregg was already providing almost 6 figures for his CS and alimony. To take on this responsibility must have felt almost crippling. Yet he said yes to his guidance without pause. AND I REALLY MEAN WITHOUT PAUSE.

It has taken time for him to trust in GOD and not just himself to provide… and he’s still working on the energy of trust VS do… but that’s what MY ALLOWING HIM TO PROVIDE did FOR HIM. It brought him closer to God.

And that’s what me allowing him to provide for me did for me… it deeply and profoundly healed parts of me I never knew were broken.

And this lesson has changed me forever.
GOD’S WILL FIRST. always.

Because my BEST and brightest… most savvy thinking falls so insanely short of God’s brilliance. God’s never-ending LOVE that comes in the exact form needed… RIGHT ON TIME, always.

Deep inside I desired to feel like a valuable woman… who a loving and SAFE… powerful man wanted to take care of.

I would NEVER experience that while fighting to self-provide.
I needed the season of not being able to in order to break my stubbornness.

It always makes perfect sense looking back lol.
So today… I ask myself… what deep longing am I pretending doesn’t exist while I focus on getting the thing I think will make me feel how I want to feel?

I let go of every single thing I think I need and go within.
Who do I feel called to be?
How do I long to FEEL?

And then I say YES to however God wants to create that.
Whewwwww!!!!
I feel utter relief at how much drama I will now avoid HAHAHAHA. And now I get to have BOTH. Ahhhh!

I love you.
