Hi there,
    I watched the Secret several times and understand the concept
behind it but I saw this group and I wanted to know how natural
horsemanship and the Law of Attraction work as one.  I had a hard time
applying the Secret to my life but since I already knew horses and
started working with Parelli, I was able to apply what I was learning
with natural horsemanship.

Martha,

Welcome to the group. You'll find us rather inactive until we get
booted off the Parelli Savvy Club list, but your emails will go to
everyone in our little group and I'm sure others than me will have
some encouragement for you.

When you get to the part in the Law of Attraction about the Emotional
Scale and your emotional guidance system, you will find more answers
on this subject. In the meantime, if Source is calling you to anger,
go there. Anger is relief from powerlessness and it sounds to me
like that's where you are with your husband. Writing in your journal
is a wonderful way to sift through your thoughts - just remember that
at any point in time, your sole "job" is to find relief and feel a
little better than you did a minute ago.

Tallyho!

Martha,

Welcome to the group.  You'll find us rather inactive until we get
booted off the Parelli Savvy Club list, but your emails will go to
everyone in our little group and I'm sure others than me will have
some encouragement for you.

When you get to the part in the Law of Attraction about the Emotional

on this subject.  In the meantime, if Source is calling you to anger,
go there.  Anger is relief from powerlessness and it sounds to me
like that's where you are with your husband.  Writing in your journal
is a wonderful way to sift through your thoughts - just remember that
at any point in time, your sole "job" is to find relief and feel a
little better than you did a minute ago.

I'm Martha.  I am in the middle of reading The Law of Attraction
(the Hicks version).  I like it a lot, I'm getting it, and I am
trying like heck to absorb more of it.
Have read the Dyer books, and have tried to absorb them also.
I seem to have issues with this:  Not being able to let others be
what they are.  Especially my hubby.
What do you do when one day everything is hunky dorey, and the next,
things seem to blow up?  Like, I'm trying to just be myself, stop
trying to get a certain response out of him.  I used to try really
hard to make sure I said everything just right, and then he'd still
get really defensive or grumpy.  Then I feel like it's my fault.
Well, I'm trying REALLY hard to get past that.
I got up this morning really annoyed.  Something happened last nite,
i said what are we going to do about that???  And hubby just got
tight lipped, tight jawed, and was grumpy and went to bed that way.
I wrote in my gratitude journal, and I saw that I was doing a lot
of "I don't want" and immediately decided to turn that around
to "Today I'm gonig to be productive, and be positive and get all
these things done" (I tend to shut down and get burried in the
computer or a book or tv and over-eat when I'm upset - I've dropped
30 lbs and am working on another 40 and sure don't want to go
backward!).

I know the answers - I've been reading them.  Wondering if anyone
else goes thru this or if you have any little mantras or ideas that
you can share to turn things around in your head?

Sharing the Joy
Martha

You also mentioned the Law of Attraction and The Secret. My You Tube
Playlist has a fairly comprehensive collection of The Secret, The
Phenomenon. I hope that this also helps :-)

We may have someone here who is not on the Savvy Club Forum so I'm
going to explain a little just in case.

Several of us began this discussion on that Forum.  I knew at the
time that sooner or later we would come to point where the pwoers
that be over there wouldn't appreciate our exchange of ideas (they
call it advice), so here we are.

Karen posted a message there about her niece who is 14 and has had
challenges come her way.  Karen's post was basically wanting some
assistance in what she can do to help her niece.

This is the meat of what I posted there yesterday that got moderated
out before everyone had a chance to read it, and yes, indeed, I am
giving Karen advice.  She can take it if it feels good to her or
ignore it if it doesn't feel good.  That's the thing about advice -
anyone can offer it.  It's up to us to choose whether to lick and
chew on it or not!

Karen:  The very best thing you can do for your niece is be a shining
light for her.  Get as happy and as satisfied with your life as you
possibly can.  Feel that feeling of connectedness and back in it.
She will feel that coming from you, too.

The next best thing you can do for her is ever so gently, and I mean
ever so gently, help her soften her feelings of discouragement and
failure.  They are very normal and very easy for her to sink into.
Very softly remind her to keep her eyes on the prize.  As Pat
says, "Focus on what you want and ignore the rest."

She knows what's right for her.  She just might need a little
reminder that she has a guidance system in her gut that will lead
her - good feels good and bad feels bad.  Remind her to go for the
good - to look for the loveliness in every moment.

She's very fortunate to have you in her life just as you are to have
her.

"I must be aware of bad things, and guarded about bad things, and I
must watch out for bad things by trying to guide myself toward good
things." You can't do both at the same time. You can't watch out for
bad things, and allow good things at the same time. It is
vibrationally not possible."

By the way, I will probably have some extra tickets to the Parelli USA
Tour date in Perry, Georgia, February 3-4 if anyone's interested.  PM
me.

Tallyho!

Well, I had a whole long post typed out and lost it.  Anyway, check
out one of my favorite e-cards from www.tut.com.  I posted it in the
Photos section this afternoon.

Welcome to our little Law of Attraction for Horse Lovers group.  This
group started out of a thread on a natural horsemanship website when
one of the group saw the movie, The Secret.  It grew so much that I
thought it would be fun to have a place to discuss the Law of
Attraction with horse lovers everywhere.

So, here are the rules:

1.  Feel free to discuss anything that has to do with the Law of
Attraction.  Posts do not necessarily have to related to horses, but
there is that emphasis here.

2.  Stay friendly - no flaming, very little foul language will be
tolerated.

3.  Other than that, I reserve the right to delete any post I choose
not to be appropriate or to terminate membership of anyone.

Tally-Ho, Magnificent Co-Creators!
