Deepak Chopra's collaboration with Oprah passed me by the first time it was aired, but the interwebs are a wonderful place to find that which has passed. And so, on YouTube, I bookmarked the 21 Days of Abundance, and started my practise again.
The sessions are about 15 minutes long, and begin with a vaguely woo-woo talk touching on the philosophy of Abundance. He tells me that I create my personal abundance from an infinite source, and my snarky New York self battles with my open-to-new-experiences self as I try to still my mind and absorb the peace.
It's a challenge.
There's a summary statement at the end of each presentation; some of them made me open my eyes and write them down.
There is a way I can fulfill my true purpose in life.
Today, and every day, I give that which I want to receive.
Today, I focus on what I want to attract to my life.
Some of them are harder to parse, and niggle at my brain, like Attention energizes; Intention Transforms. It keeps folding in and around and over itself.
And then there are the ones that surprise me. For example - The night before, we watched the 1934 version of The Count of Monte Cristo. The morning's meditation left me with this thought: As I live in present moment awareness, I live the magic of synchronicity. The afternoon's conversation with old friends wound around serious topics only to end with Not-Kathy declaring that Dumas' classic was her favorite book, one she read over and over again.
I smiled, living the magic of synchronicity.
