Speaker 1:

Are you ready to create a life you crave? Let's spin that doom loop of negativity into an upward success cycle and start living lucky. Good morning, I'm Jemma and we are living lucky. It's our last podcast on the manifestation series I received that. And that's what we're talking about. Thank you, jason. We're talking about receiving, because that's really about allowing it all to happen.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think one of the things is sometimes we're not even aware that we're not good at receiving.

Speaker 1:

Why is that? It's just. It's like I want this, I want this, I want this. And then, when it does finally come, when the opportunities come, we're like I'm not worthy. And then we start feeling these oh gosh, you know, I'm like this whenever I get a new car or a new outfit, I start having buyer's remorse.

Speaker 2:

Well, think about this. Excellent point, yes, but just something as simple and free as a compliment.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I know, Go to church and a woman is wearing a really nice dress and you say, oh my gosh, you look so lovely today and they'll be like this old thing. I got this at a garage sale Right. It's like they start downgrading it immediately.

Speaker 2:

I'm not going to receive that compliment.

Speaker 1:

Or this has been in my closet for a decade.

Speaker 2:

God forbid, someone says thank you so much. You know, I saw this in my closet and it immediately made me feel wonderful, so I put it on and I thought maybe I can show up wonderfully in the world today.

Speaker 1:

Right, like I just feel beautiful today.

Speaker 2:

Thank you for noticing, I mean you spend an hour getting ready, and then you get a compliment, and then we downgrade it and you say no, thank you, no compliments for me. Why do we do that? It's a deflection.

Speaker 1:

We I do that all the time.

Speaker 2:

And then you want to push it back on someone.

Speaker 1:

I work so hard at so many things, and then when people go, oh my gosh, jenna, you did such a great job and I'm like, oh, you know what? I just threw this together.

Speaker 2:

I want to make it look easy. You want to make it.

Speaker 1:

Yes, it's like my ego says oh no, no, no, I got to make this look easy. It's ego.

Speaker 2:

Edging great out. Is that what it's? It's edging God out, but it's say but ego gets in the way. Ego is kind of a wall that blocks manifestation, it blocks God, it blocks.

Speaker 1:

And it blocks receiving.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Because sometimes then, when we do start manifesting things, then we we have the thought this isn't real, this isn't what I wanted, this isn't how I pictured it, this isn't what I asked for, and that's also your ego, because your ego has your best intentions At heart, whereas when you truly manifest things, you should have the well-being of the world, the universe, yourself, all people in it, the world, the greater good. Yeah, and that's true manifestation.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and that's going to allow for an open. That's. That's not planning your feet in the ground and saying this is exactly what I want, because the universe will give you something greater that is better for all.

Speaker 1:

Uh-huh, yes, and you have to be open to receive it.

Speaker 2:

And if you're so closed in on that, one flag in the ground that this is the only this is what I want then you're not allowing for the receiving and the gift that the universe is willing to give to you.

Speaker 1:

I don't know why, but my muscles just tensed up right now.

Speaker 2:

I got goosebumps.

Speaker 1:

It's almost like I had a little orgasm and that's the show for today.

Speaker 1:

I just manifested. Oh yes, so we have to receive. We have to receive. That is our final lesson in our manifestation series. We have to receive. In fact, I have a little formula that I've come up with Now. I actually took this formula from a little chat that I was in Months and months ago. I was in a chat on Mindvalley and somebody put it in. You know, it was like one of those zooms that hundreds of people were in and somebody put it in the side chat. I have since googled this formula and I can't find it anywhere. I've never seen it anywhere else, so I have no idea if this person made it up. I don't know who put it in the chat. It was one of those random things.

Speaker 2:

You received it.

Speaker 1:

I did. I received it and I wrote it down. It has such a profound effect on me. But this person, this random person in the chat, said that their formula for manifestation was ABRA, a-b-r-a.

Speaker 2:

I love that because that's kind of like a magician ABRA.

Speaker 1:

Could ABRA and that's why I remembered it and ABRA stood for ask, which? We've had a podcast this week about asking for what you want.

Speaker 2:

Know exactly what you want. Ask for it.

Speaker 1:

And I left. So ask the B stands for believe, which we've had a podcast this week about. When you listen to your doubt voice or your uncertain voice, then you are literally erasing everything that you've asked for.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and feel the feeling Like when, if you believe it so powerfully, you're going to be able to feel that feeling and actually live in that feeling.

Speaker 1:

You're going to be able to imagine it You're going to be able to, exactly, you're going to be able to almost step into the future. So believe that it's on the way. So ask, believe the R stands for receive it. Yes, and we've had a podcast this week about when we get into control Yep and we're trying to control things. Well, that means we're actually blocking our receiving, so we have to be able to receive it. And then the last A, which is appreciate.

Speaker 2:

Gratitude.

Speaker 1:

And we had a podcast this week about gratitude, which is, for me, the mother of all emotions, and it is the mother of receiving, because gratitude is actually thanking in advance.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

I believe it is thanking the universe in advance. It is thanking, it is putting yourself in a state of thankfulness. I mean that's why we say grace before we eat.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I almost feel like gratitude is right in there with love. When you love someone, you're so grateful for them. There's so much appreciation, gratitude, thankfulness, all those high vibration things that that person really wants to feed back into you all the time. When you think of a child that is ungrateful and is always complaining, what do you want to give the child? Or when you think of the child that's always coming up and saying, oh my gosh, I appreciate this so much. Thank you so much, I'm so grateful that you helped me with this.

Speaker 2:

You're like, I want to help you some more.

Speaker 1:

Right and you think about that and you're like, oh, I want to live in that space, Because the more I live in that, the more I want to help others and the more others want to help me the more I love my child. And having the child, the more I love myself the on every day that I'm looking for the child and having the child, you know, and not being crushed, that makes it so funny when we talk about, like our archetypes and things that are inside of us.

Speaker 2:

there is a special place inside of us where we actually know things are going to be okay. We know things are not.

Speaker 1:

Well, because we've gotten this far in our lives. Yeah, I mean, if we stop and think about it, I'm like, okay, I am breathing, I am breathing and I am here.

Speaker 2:

I'm 48 years old and I've made it this far, and our will to go on says I haven't made it this far to only go this far. So our magician inside of us says I believe that I can start, I can continue to ask for things, I can believe in it, receive it and appreciate things into the future. So everything's going to continue to be okay. So there's a knowing inside of us that we have to just tap into and that allows us to receive even more fully.

Speaker 1:

It's kind of like the Amazon delivery. I mean, we go on the Amazon site and we say you know what I want this, and then we order it yeah, so there's the ask. That's the ask, and then we we no doubt it's going to show up in a couple of days, we believe that it's coming right.

Speaker 2:

Then we literally open the door and we receive it.

Speaker 1:

We're like oh it's here, Hi, Thank you, amazon, we receive it. And then, last but not least, we appreciate it Most of the time. Most of the time, we appreciate it, sometimes we send it back, sometimes it's a surprise. Right you know what? Maybe a better example would be Santa Claus.

Speaker 2:

Excellent point. Yeah, because I always getting exactly what you want, but you make that list.

Speaker 1:

Okay. So, like, when you're little, you make a list and this is okay, this is manifestation. Your, it's Santa Claus, okay, because when you're little, you know how. You go through the JC penny catalog, right, and you say, oh, I want this and I want this and I want this. That is manifesting. That's what you're doing, you are envisioning, you are imagining what it would be like to play with these things and you are stepping into the feeling of, oh, my gosh, I want this. This would be so cool.

Speaker 2:

And you're putting your dream or your, your, your want out into the universe in a form of letting your parents know. Hey, mom, help me write this down or here's. Here's what I want.

Speaker 1:

And this would be so exciting. You have to attach the feeling. You have to attach the feeling. Then you write a letter to Santa Claus, you write it down, then you believe. You believe you know what Santa is getting my letter in the North Pole and I believe that those elves are gonna make the toys and on Christmas Eve I am gonna get something under the tree.

Speaker 2:

Yes, and you can barely sleep at night because you're like, you are in that feeling, right in that receding and you get so excited.

Speaker 1:

You wake up the next morning. Now sometimes you open that gift and, oh my gosh, it's a little bit different than I was expecting.

Speaker 2:

The red rider BB gun that I was expecting. However, this is really cool yeah it's a allowing for what's better for all, what's better for the good of everyone.

Speaker 1:

This is awesome because this is something that I can play with my sister, and I can also play this with my dad and my family.

Speaker 2:

This keeps my feet warm.

Speaker 1:

Okay, Jason.

Speaker 2:

This is gonna make me smarter, because I got socks and books.

Speaker 1:

Jason just made it all too practical, however, he's taking the fun out of it. However, we receive it and we appreciate it. And next thing, you know, we are becoming a doctor because of that Christmas gift that we got.

Speaker 2:

It's that new concept of. I think that's just a very good way of putting the whole thing in a package right there.

Speaker 1:

That is manifestation. Oh, I love it. Woo hoo hoo. I don't even know what tune that was.

Speaker 2:

I liked it, though it sounded like taps.

Speaker 1:

I was ready to get it, which is the wrong tune to be singing.

Speaker 2:

I just think it's gonna be Bobbie's song Wrong tune, right song.

Speaker 1:

Maybe Pivity Bobbie Boo would be better. That's a mouthful to say this morning. At any rate, we are finishing up our manifestation series. I hope this helped you. We do have a workshop that's coming up and I want everyone to be involved because I am so excited about it. Jason mentioned briefly about the archetypes and we will be tapping into the archetypes which are deep within our souls. Our archetypes are part of a Carl Jung lesson and Carl Jung believed that we all have archetypes as part of our personality. So we will be tapping into our king and queen, our warrior, within.

Speaker 2:

Your king and queen know what they want. Oh yeah, and they deserve it.

Speaker 1:

Oh, of course that gets their birth right. It is their birth right, so we're gonna tap into that hardcore.

Speaker 2:

We're gonna tap into the warrior, and your warrior knows how to get it because he's trained, he's disciplined, he's resilient.

Speaker 1:

He, she is resilient.

Speaker 2:

We're also gonna tap into the lover, which is compassionate, and passionate and that gratitude, that appreciation kind of that relationship between child and parent or just being on the earth. So yeah, that's that relationally, it's gonna be huge.

Speaker 1:

And then, last but not least, as Jason was mentioning, the magician, so I hope you can join us. We'll have all of the information in the show notes. Thank you, guys, for joining us. Have a beautiful day and leave us a message if you are living lucky.
