Making yourself available for what you want.

Are you available for what you desire?

Would you stay in the house of a hostess who has not made a loving space for you? I imagine you would not. I imagine that you would leave as soon as possible, feeling unwelcome.

In the same way, the Universe cannot send the energy of what you desire if you do not open a space for it in yourself and in your life. The first Alchemical Key to open the flow of the Law of Attraction is availability. You cannot even begin to attract what you desire if you are not available for it. The question is how do you make yourself available for what you want?

This article explores more in detail the Alchemical Key of Availability as I’ve presented in our Dream Alchemist Radio Show on October 20, 2008. If the date is already gone, you can listen to the radio show at our website. Here’s the address:

To find out how to make yourself available, let’s examine five ways in which you make yourself unavailable for what you want.

1. You are not in the present.
The flow of the LOA, just as the waves in the Field of Infinite Possibilities, follows your attention. If your attention is not here, then the waves find themselves in a non-localized future or past. They cannot reach your present. They can only reproduce more of the past, or bring you more encounters like the ones in the past. If you want a new or better experience, you need to let go of the past. But what about the future? There are many potential futures, but they only vibrate to the frequency of the present. It’s like a tuning fork. Your potential tunes into the attention frequency of now. The present tunes-up the future. If you are focusing in the future, you may be avoiding the present. Are you scared? Are you judging and pushing yourself? Then you will tune into that type of future, and not the one you desire! In a word: unless you re-write the past in the present, you will get more of the past in the future.

To make yourself available for what you want, develop the power of your Presence. Be fully awake and present here and now. Conscious Presence takes years to develop, and you need to practice it often every day. Once you have it, however, it brings the power of the Wizard and the Alchemist to your life.

2. You are not physically present. Your thoughts take you out of your body.
Only when something is localized in time and space can it become tangible and visible in our Earth dimension. Therefore, the flow of the LOA seeks the vibrational energy pattern of your body, already localized, in order to bring you more resources and allies. Your Energy Field is made of your thoughts, beliefs, emotions and expectations. The “tighter” these are held by you every day, the more “solid” they become. They become the software that runs your flow. If your thoughts constantly take you out of your body, however, you are like a runaway hostess. You have invited the guest, and then you’ve left the house! Your attention and thoughts cannot be localized in the present, and therefore you cannot manifest, for manifestation takes place as the non-localize waves arrange themselves in a localized spot, in the present.

On top of that, consider your vibrational frequency, which is related to your emotions. This charge magnetizes what you desire. If you are always running, in the “doing” mode; if you are constantly out or your body, thinking of the next thing to do, then your cells are spinning in “fast” mode. In that mode, there is little empty space to receive new input. Not to mention the damage you do to your cells by being always “on” –give it a rest!

To make yourself available for what you desire, you need to consciously inhabit your body. Instead of trying to control your body with your mind, trying to shape it to an ideal image, listen. Your body has an organic wisdom. If you become receptive to this wisdom, you can experience the dance of your cells, understand the language of your organs, feel when there is an imbalance in your systems and experience the patterns in your Energy Field. This will allow you to heal, transform and cultivate your energy patterns to attract what you want.

3. You make no time for yourself or for what you want.
Women are trained to be “other focused.” Because of this domestication, it is likely that you feel weird or even guilty when you give yourself attention. If all your time is filled with doing things for others, talking about others, worrying about others, then you are not present to yourself in your life. Your attention is not centered in your core, in your soul. If this is happening to you, then are not opening a space for what you want in your life. You are not realizing your purpose. How can you manifest your dream, if you give it no attention, no thought, not time or space?

Women are often led to believe that we are here to nurture others. While nurturing is a gift that women bring to the community life, it is not our only destiny. There is no reason why you need to choose between love for others and love for yourself. Quite the contrary. Your self-realization and cultivation is the greatest gift you can give to your loved ones. You are here in this world to realize your full potential. It is through your own cultivation, growth and fulfillment that you give your best example and gift to the world. Open a space within your cells, consciousness and heart to receive the very energy you are summoning.

To become available for what you want, include yourself and your dream in your calendar. Take time to develop a long-term plan for your Personal Dream and goals. Create strategies and seek allies. Use as much as you can in your weekly time for your dream. Make your relationship to yourself and to your dream a priority in your calendar. Don’t leave yourself or your Soul’s purpose for whatever time is left after you take care of everyone and everything else, for there will be none, and you will be leaving yourself out of your life.

4. You make no space for what you want in your life.
Women have a beautiful gift that comes from our womb wisdom. We are inclusive. We want to nurture, to bring into our embrace those we love, to incubate their potential. That is a great power in itself. But it is often used against our own dreams. We need to stand in our center, and from that core, from our self-hood and personal dream, invite others to share our space, each in their own center.

If you find yourself not having a space to create or to simply be and take a breather, then you are stealing space from yourself, your dream and your power. You are stealing power from yourself. You may be complaining that you don’t have privacy, that others step all over you, take up your space, invade your house, call-in at all ours, talk you to death while they won’t listen, etc. Don’t blame others. You are ALLOWING this to happen. You are stealing your space and using them as excuse not to empty that space for your dream.

To be available for what you desire, create a Sacred Space for yourself. This is a priority, private, only-for-you space and time. There you can do your deep breathing and relaxation, your yoga or other relaxing, health-giving body practice, your journal writing, your thinking, your self-reflection, personal growth practices and dream strategies. Do it at least twice a week, at least 4 hours a week, at the same time and space. Book it in your calendar. Allow absolutely NO ONE in that space. Create a physically clean, warm, beautiful and comfortable space for you at that time. Close the door. Reclaim yourself.

5. You give away your power to fear.

If you allow fear to crowd your personal space, then you are closing the flow of life. Fear closes the heart and repels the blessings in the Great Mystery that is life. It puts you on guard. Defensive living closes the flow of LOA. Worry is like fear. The antidote to fear is faith. The antidote to worry is joy.

Opening your cells to be available for what you want is a cleansing. You release what crowds your Energy Field and mind, whether it is worry, fear, caretaking, rush, overthinking, overworking or selflessness. You make yourself empty so that you can become pregnant with your dream. Then your dream becomes part of your Energy Field, part of your DNA and your cells, part of your daily thoughts and feelings. It will soon begin to take shape in your life.

If you recognize that there is no space for the flow of the LOA to alight or for the energy of what you desire to take shape in your environment, it is time to open that space. Breathe deeply. Empty yourself. Relax, dance, sing, and trust that the Universe is on your side. Celebrate yourself and your life. Make yourself available for your Dream!
