In December I was at a friend’s wedding and the facilitators an Energy Alchemist and her Lakota Indian husband who has many spiritual talents, shared that they take people on a spiritual retreat to Bali in April.  Ahhhh. Bali. Like many of you after I saw “Eat, Pray, Love” I was moved and inspired to venture to that land so far away, not really knowing what I was even to expect.  The challenge was that I really didn’t have the funds to generate such a journey. I work AQUAMANTRA and make a little bit to cover my expenses but not enough to venture around the world, and yes that is how far it is the complete other side of the world. And yet I knew it was a passion and a BIG desire, so I made the commitment to myself that I was going and secondly to work my abundance muscle.

What did that look like? First, I gave a deposit early so I knew I was committed.  Second, I started telling everyone I was going to Bali.  When people said what have you been up to I say saving money to go to Bali.  Most times we spend talking about what’s going on in our current life and usually it is not the fun stuff. Focus your thoughts on what you desire.  I cleaned out my attic and had a garage sale.  At this sale I told everyone I was raising money to go to Bali, and I marked everything down to around $1-2 to make things fly off the grass if you will.  I was in ACTION raising money for Bali.  Lastly, I had a clear jar on my alter at home that was especially for Bali. Any cash I got I put it in there and I would be in gratitude for the money in that jar.  It helps to see what you are manifesting and by being in gratitude you are thanking the universe for covering it for you.  I probably could have put this trip on a credit card but I choose to work this abundance muscle, and I encourage anyone to do so. This trip was the ONE – the lifetime adventure that was off the charts and I was so proud of myself that I raised the money. I even paid for all my bills ahead of time and for when I came back. The universe will support you, when you ask and act as if.  NOW…. for bigger events. I am flexing my muscle to raise money to write my book I AM A MANTRAPRENEUR, the jar is out, the workout clothes are on and I’m heading to the track.  Don’t take my word for it, try it for yourself!!!!!!!

Peace and Bliss, BALI GIRL
