Chp. 3 - the Triggering Truth about the Law of Attraction
In Chapter 3, I share how the Law of Attraction made me confront my need for approval. I related to it in the exact same way I related to my parents. As a source of power that I needed to ābe really goodā and āperfectā for in order to deserve the things I wanted.
I became āreally good and perfectā on that day, by doing Shadow Work and releasing limiting beliefs around money and scarcity. I thought that by doing this, Iād be able to manifest winning the lotto. lol.
When that didnāt happen, it did make me realize that perhaps Shadow Work was a lengthier process with many things to untangle.
And it made me realize that I was projecting the same relationship that I had with my parents - onto the Law of Attraction. And that perhaps LoA doesnāt work that way.
Rather than using it as a tool to try to get things (manifesting), I started using it to see where Iām still blocking myself internally by holding onto outdated beliefs and feelings.
Working through these in Shadow Work helped me see where I hold myself back from having, doing and being the person that has/is whatās on my vision board. By doing the work, I then step into my own power, and then Law of Attraction āworksā and the things Iāve been trying to manifest come in, because I am now an energetic match to those things. Law of Attraction was never about IT being powerful. It was always about ME being powerful. The lack of manifested things shows me where I STILL DONāT BELIEVE in my own power.
In the video below, I tell this story and explain how the Law of Attraction ACTUALLY works.
