2008
Lately so much has transpired. I've been doing a great deal of reflection, trying to sort through the emotions of graduating, starting the practice, setting goals for what I would like to Manifest in 2008.
I had an interesting experience. I gave my best friend the exact book that she gave me--The Astonishing Power of Emotions by Jerry and Esther Hicks. It was a little like the Gift of the Magi (one of my all-time favorite books). I really wanted the book, which came with an accompanying CD, but I thought it would be extravagant to get for myself. Apparently, my friend felt the same way. We laughed pretty hard that first of all we got it for each other and then we chose to not buy it for ourselves even though we really wanted to read it. The irony!
I have been enjoying reading it as well as other books (my favorite gifts this year) from my father and B. I just have to say that one of them, Being a Wealthy Therapist--How to Make a Living Making a Difference (which ironically has an excerpt from Jerry and Esther Hicks) has really helped me think about my business in a new way. It has helped me begin to change my feelings of worry/doubt to abundance and gratitude.
Where was I going? Oh yes, I remember. My first client contacted me to postpone our session due to financial constraints. Instead of letting it spin me out of control, I took a deep breath.
I realized that if I come from a place of abundance and believe that I have many, many clients coming my way, then I do not need to let myself become overwhelmed. My client will come back when she is able. I just need to concentrate on the things I can do and allow myself to relax.
I am going on vacation in a couple of weeks, which will really help (B. and I both have free tickets to Mexico from FF miles). When I come back, I truly believe my clients will be waiting for me.
I was grateful for my horoscope this morning, because it reinforced this message.
You may want to pull back behind your wall of protection so you don't get washed away by the tides of change that are again breaking onto the shores of your awareness. You might think that you've lost your chance to take action, but this isn't true. You are not defeated. You are simply being given time to tie up loose emotional ends before launching into the next cycle in a few weeks.

I love your post Elizabeth. I also am going to order the book "Be a Wealthy Therapist". I just read the first few pages on Amazon and really liked it.
My therapist lives from a place of abundance and I can feel it in her presence. Everything she does reflects that peace and sense of knowing. From allowing me to pay a lower fee right now to allowing me to take a new business card each time she makes one (because she adds such wonderful quotes and nature scenes on them). She just knows that there is "enough" for everyone and for herself. It feels good to be in her presence.
