Getting into the Vortex: Guided Meditations

If never done before, you have to get used to such meditations. The read is good and very interesting as any other Hick's books, of course only if you are open to the information provided.Is it helpful? I want to think it does, I believe in what Abraham is offering, it is only me, yet likely not fully on the ball or better to say - in the vortex.I have read all their books and I practice Abraham's exercises as much as I can and I'm liking it. Lot of fun :) still some more work to be done, I mean thinking good feeling thought and releasing resistance :) - this is practically all about it.Ah, let the Universe do the hard work :)

The CD contains four meditations, one on general well-being, one on financial abundance, one on physical well-being, and one on relationships.It is advised just to hear 15 minutes of the CD every day.A little book accompanies the CD, and Esther and Jerry, or Abraham, recommend that we read the book before hearing the CD, so as to find out how best to use the meditations.For the CD to have the required result, that is, perfect abundance and health, we need to focus on breathing deeply in time to the music.Unfortunately, this spoiled the whole thing for me, for so far I have not managed to breathe deeply as required. And if I try to align my breathing with the music, I get all confused, and can hardly breathe at all! I have worked with this CD for about six months, though it feels like a year, so it is not for want of trying that I can't get it right.In fact the problem probably lies in the fact that we are not supposed to try at all, just relax and breathe (deeply!). We are told we don't need to concentrate, but I for one can't breathe deeply without concentrating. And they say it is vital to breathe deeply. For me there is thus an unresolvable conflict in Abraham's exhortations. And if I just relax and breathe normally, I fall asleep immediately.As regards the results of listening to the meditations day in and day out, nothing has changed as regards my abundance or health, despite the constant statements on the CD that everything will now change for the better. I will here point out that I'm in no way saying that nobody will experience improvement in their affairs, only that I didn't. But then I didn't get the breathing right.Another thing is, I don't feel this Vortex thing - I don't feel any better when listening to the CD, as they state one will. I am generally in very good humour, so there isn't much room for improvement, and I think the frustration with the breathing problems makes me feel worse, if anything.Neither do I feel "the appreciation that Source feels" for me - how would I feel that? I don't really understand how, but then again they say that this is felt when relaxing and breathing deeply, which two things I can't do at the same time.But I appreciate most of what they say on the CD. My favourite quote is re relationships: "As you insist on looking for positive aspects in others, in time only positive aspects can be shown to you." I remind myself of this several times a day.Apart from the CD, you get a little book that you really need to read before listening to the CD (so you can learn about the importance of breathing deeply). It contains useful reiterations of Abraham's message.We are reminded, for instance, that we should be "easy about our life", as we allow "wonderful things to flow naturally" to us. We should stop trying to make things happen (so I should just stop trying to breathe deeply, perhaps). We simply need to relax and breathe, smile and allow. It has always been our struggle, concern and attempt at impossible control that has been holding wanted things from us. Our true power lies in non-struggle.One of their basic precepts is: "Feel good for the sake of feeling good, and everything else will take care of itself."My final word is, if you love or appreciate Abraham and are good at deep breathing, then I would highly recommend this CD + book.

I have been on a journey. It has been 9 months and I have 'come across' the information I needed, at the time I was ready to understand and accept it. I started with The Secret, The Power and then The Magic then moved on to tapping (EFT) by Brad Yates and Margaret Lynch, then, when I was ready to 'receive' I was led to the youtube videos of Abraham-Hicks, where I nodded my head in agreement and laughed and smiled and the light bulb kept going on! and on! and on!, and I purchased the book The Law of Attraction by Esther and Jerry Hicks, the teachings of Abraham. I then ordered and devoured The Vortex where the law of attraction assembles all co-operative relationships, a beautiful book, and I was then led to this Meditations CD.I cannot even begin to say how much this CD changed everything in me, immediately. It was instantaneous, life transforming and so gentle and touching. I get tears every time I meditate to this, it is filled with such love and kindness that it takes my breath away. This is the most incredible meditation I have ever done. I am so appreciative, every single day and thanks to the Abraham-Hicks teachings, my life has been transformed and I am able to live as I was meant to live - in happiness and joy every day. Their books explain every single thing you need to know, but whether you are ready to understand and accept their words is a different matter. 9 months ago I wasn't, even though I am incredibly open-minded and accepting, I wasn't able to get my head around certain concepts, and it is only now, after this journey that I have been on, that I am now able to fully understand and appreciate their words, and it has made a profound impact on my life.If there is only one meditation you were ever to do - then do this one. I do this every single day, and I relish my time doing it.This is more than gold, more than diamonds, it is the elixir of life itself.thank you Esther, Jerry and Abraham xxx
