Morgana - Feeling grateful… and a true story

Today is all about gratitude.
 
It’s been a really good week…
 
I enrolled the final woman for next month’s Goddess retreat in Bali.

 

I spoke at the Expert Insights Book awards, won a $13,500 publishing
prize (giving it to my husband), and I received a big award from
Senator Omer L Rains for my contribution to the economic education
and empowerment of women around the world. (See pic below.)

Wow! Lots to be grateful for!

 
(And life was pretty terrific before all these bonuses.)
 
I also received a letter from a client, about the magical power of gratitude… and I thought you might find it useful, so I’m sharing it with you, here:
 
 
“I was walking out of the grocery store earlier and just took a few minutes to say a ‘thank you’ to the universe for the amazing food that I was able to buy, for the car I have to drive home, and my amazing family I am able to feed.
 
A few weeks I found myself starting to get into that complaining mode….  And complaining when I should be thankful.  For example – I would find myself saying ‘oh we only had X money for our bank deposit today?  That is small’;  or ‘We only had X many orders yesterday… that is not very great’; or ‘ I have to buy bread AGAIN’.  Those little statements that lead to the slow and insidious spiral – but I caught myself and turned it around.
 
And the funny thing about my small little thank you’s:  I got back to my office and had a phone call out of the blue for a new client and  I also had an email for a green light on a project that I quoted over a month ago!
 
I didn’t have gratitude with any motive in mind, but was truly grateful for how easy I have it and how I am genuinely happy!
 
Miss you  – love you!!! And thank you for you!!”
 
 
Now, there are times in life when it’s not so easy to grateful. I do not believe
it’s appropriate to try to force gratitude on someone who is suffering. (That’s just rude and insensitive.)
 
But if you can come up with anything worthy of a little love and appreciation in your life, I invite you to give yourself the gift of gratitude. It’s good for you and the life you want to create.

 

What are YOU grateful for? Please post below!

 
Namaste,

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Stuck In The Middle

Question: I don’t want to be in the middle of this! My boyfriend’s mother is sick and he wants to move back home to be closer to her. His mother HATES me and he wants me to go with him. The doctor’s are saying the outlook is not positive and I want him to be there for his mother but I don’t think I am a big enough person to put our issues aside to endure her. Am I horrible? Answer: Yes, you are a horrible horrible person and you’re going to hell. KIDDING!!!!!! You are magnificent and courageous and willing to tell the truth… and I find that inspiring I think it’s very important for people to be given the option to spend time with their parents as they die because sometimes people die suddenly and you never get a chance to say something; yet, your boyfriend will be able to feel good about the time, effort, and presence he gives her. And it’s also very important for you not to stop living or choose something that’s not a contribution for you and sacrifice yourself for another only t...

  Seeing Only Red in a Sea of Blue   In my talks, I often play this game with the audience. I ask them to look around the room and count how many red shirts there are. After half-a-minute, I tell them to close their eyes. I ask them, “Are you ready with your answer?” They all reply with a resounding yes. Then I ask them, “Okay. How many blue shirts did you see?” They burst out laughing. And they try to guess. But no one gets the right answer. Why? Because they weren’t focused on the blue shirts but on the red. The point of this little exercise is to show them that every reality, every situation, every circumstance always has many sides. But we only see one side! Always.   You’re Not a Grasshopper   Let me tell you one of my all-time favorite stories in the Bible. The Israelites who escaped Egypt (think “Ten Commandments” with Charlton Heston) were now at the edge of the Promised Land. Not knowing what it was like, they sent 12 spies to scout the land i...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - My boyfriend’s messaging strange women

Question: Do you have any idea why a man would start instant messaging strange woman after being in a five year relationship. Said he was “stupid” and wasn’t physical with anybody. I guess you can say I have trust issues. Answers: Ouch! I am so sorry. Do I have any idea why? Here is what I have learned, first off I am really sorry because that really hurts. If you have trust issues especially, that would hurt and sting even more. So first something about trust and then something about men. Trust: When we trust, it’s not that we trust someone to be perfect. That sets us up for failure because no one is perfect and you can’t control anybody. That is insanity if we try to control another and put all of our power – making sure they be a certain way to so that we are safe. Instead, find that safety and trust inside you. That safety being that capacity to discern and know that come what may, you’ve got your own back – you can take care of yourself. It takes a lot of pressure off of other...
