Giving Gratitude in Advance

Posted by: Tejaswini on Jan 17, 2011 Print PDF

Recently my dear sister Natalie Savelieva Wakefield taught me a wonderful new spiritual practice: Giving Gratitude in Advance. Today I did some writing exercises to help me clarify my goals. After listing my top four goals, I became inspired to write them out as the following “Gratitude in Advance”:

I am so thankful that it was so easy to receive donations to my Light Worker vision… those donations gave me enough time to promote the books, and I am so thankful that it was so easy to sell one million copies of Radiance Rising: Spiritual Practices for Daily Living in 2011, and now I am speaking and leading Radiance Rising Circles in a variety of settings, and I am so grateful to be doing this work that I love so much! And, I am super grateful that now so many more people are reading the Teja Blog articles and benefiting from them – I love writing these articles, and it is so wonderful to know that they touch chords in so many people… I am filled with Gratitude that I get to work as a cheerleader for spiritual practices that spread so much Light!

And so it is.

And you, what are you grateful for in advance?

May all beings everywhere be soothed by the warmth of Divine Radiance rising within them.

Om Shanti (Peace),

Natalie that feels like Aaliyah sometimes :): Gratitude Journal
Hey sister, in my healing practice, when giving this technique to people, I actually call it a Gratitude Journal. It consists of 2 parts, one that is recommended to be carried out before going to be, is giving gratitude for every little thing that happened that day, no matter whether perceived as nice and pleasant or negative, as we can never see a bigger picture at one particular moment, and what seemed to be awful today might turn out to be a blessing tomorrow; and the second fun part is recommended as a part of the morning practice to make a script for the day, giving thanks in advance for what you have planned that day... It is easy to get clarity while you are in a process of writing your gratitudes down, as to what your real priorities are and even reconsider them... The important part in this technique is a final one, when you hand it all over to God, use a final affirmation saying ·Let it be for the highest good of all" and then DETACH from it, let it go, let God, Source, Divine power sort it out for you...
The fun part for ME is when the first time after using this technique at home my patient comes to see me for the next appointment and normally says already at the door with eyes wide open, "Natalie, I wrote this thing in my diary this morning, went out and IT WAS THERE!! What is this about?? How does it work???" I normally say, the most important thing that it does, so keep on the gratitude wave, it is of such high vibration that it will take you to the next level, which is the highest of all - LOVE smilies/smiley.gif)The awareness of Love is all we need... Big hugs and love, sister, God speed your loving intentions, "We are here only to be truly helpful, we are here to represent Him who sent us"... Namaste ♥
