A Grateful Heart
Posted by Jana Groscost Matthews | Filed under Inner Alchemy, Manifesting, Transformation
A transformative process occurs when we shift our thoughts away from what we want and express gratitude for what we have. I’ve heard client’s say, “I’ll be happy when…” instead of being grateful for what they already have. Without acknowledging what we already have, how can we receive more?
It’s easy to get caught in the vortex of what is missing, emotionally spiraling into grief and resentment. A part of manifesting is learning rise above lower vibrating survival emotions of scarcity, fear, jealousy, and greed and create what we want from the heart-center. Manifesting stems from a state of love.
The key to manifesting more is to be grateful for what you have now. One of the best daily exercises is to create a gratitude journal. Expand this time of Thanksgiving to be a daily ritual of giving thanks. Each day write out a list of what you already have and what you are still manifesting. Here are excerpts of my journal:
I am so GRATEFUL for my connection to Spirit.
I am so GRATEFUL for my loving husband.
I am so GRATEFUL for my wonderful daughters.
I am so GRATEFUL for sincere friendships.
I am so GRATEFUL for receiving clear and understandable messages from God, ascended masters, master healers, my guides, angels, etc.
I am so GRATEFUL for the insight and wisdom I’ve received to assist so many in their healing, evolution, and ascension process.
Making a statement of gratitude even when you are still working to manifest something provides a higher vibration around what you’re creating. Manifesting with gratitude puts you in a state of love instead of scarcity, fear, jealousy, or greed.
The Universe expands in relationship to our gratitude instead of fear. When perceptions are focused on what is missing then grieving takes over fostering fear-based perceptions of scarcity. When perceptions are focused on what we are grateful for then our world expands and provides more.
My life has been abundantly blessed. I’m so GRATEFUL for my clients and readers of New Moon Manifesting. My sincere desire is to assist many in their manifesting, healing, and ascension process. As a “Thank You”, during our next New Moon call on Thursday, December 2, 2010 at 6pm PST (9pm EST) I’ll be giving special healing gift to all those who join us.

Full Moon in Taurus
Posted by Jana Groscost Matthews | Filed under Inner Alchemy, Manifesting, Transformation
Our emotions intensify this weekend as the moon reaches its full position on Sunday, November 21, 2010 at 12:27 EST (9:27am PST). Conflict arises as the energy of self-indulgent Taurus meets transformational Scorpio. The results can be electrifying.
It’s a time of great healing and you may feel that you’re being pushed to the limit. To overcome the intensity and any struggle you’re feeling focus on being grateful.
The energy of gratitude diffuses any conflict and focuses your attention on moving forward instead of getting caught in the past. Gratitude puts you in the right vibration for manifesting. Each day make a list of everything you’re grateful for and see how your manifesting shifts.

Changes and Challenges
Posted by Jana Groscost Matthews | Filed under Manifesting, Transformation
Change isn’t an option, it’s necessary at this time. The crumbling old foundation is causing many to embrace fear. But the evolution in our energy is causing us to move out of a state of greed and survival and into a place of love. Our new foundation is based in the heart chakra instead of the lower three survival chakras. The push and pull you may be feeling is part of this transition helping you eliminate old survival skills and resolving emotional wounding.
Keep in mind that everyone that you’re in conflict with has contracted with you to help you grow and heal. Our Divine Intelligence gave us crutches to help us overcome our challenges in life. Unfortunately these crutches turned into addictions. It’s easy to get caught in the drama and support yourself through your addictions. Addictions come in many forms: drugs, alcohol, work, exercise, some people are even addicted to drama and create it constantly. These behaviors are rooted in survival instead of growth. They keep us tied to our stories and emotional wounding instead of healing them.
The cosmos is shaking all that up right now. The message is to “stop embracing addictions and emotional wounds, and heal yourself.” The more we resist change the more change is forced upon us. There are some simple steps you can do to manage change instead of feeling victimized by it.
1) Face drama: View drama in your life without attachment to emotions around it. Typically the first response is to emotionally lashing out, but take a step back and ask yourself “Why you are reacting this way?” As soon as you bring awareness to the situation instead of more drama to it you’ll begin to resolve and dissolve it.
2) Release Fear: When you feel the survival skills of the lower three chakras, recite affirmations to shift the energy away from fear and into love. For example, perhaps you are struggling financially. Instead of marinating in the fear and lack of your perceived financial distress say, “The Universe is my supply. I’m so grateful the Universe provides a continuous stream of prosperity and abundance (or whatever the lesson).” Find something you can be grateful related to that person or situation so you shift your vibration. Only you can choose to shift your lower vibrating emotions to higher ones.
3) Remove assumptions and expectations: By making assumptions or having expectations we actually limit possible outcomes. Making assumptions is a breakdown in communication because you assume everyone thinks the way you do. Making assumptions causes misunderstandings because the assumptions fill in the gaps of communication. Drama and sadness is based on our assumptions. Instead of making assumptions find the courage to ask questions until you feel clear about the situation. Find your voice!
An expectation is anticipation of a particular outcome. When we have expectations we may shut down or don’t see other possibilities because we are so focused on a specific result. When things don’t turn out the way we expect it creates frustration, anger, sadness, doubt, and disbelief.
4) Gratitude: Each day make a list of what you’re grateful for. The list includes both things from the past, present and intentions in progress. Expressing gratitude is a big way to shift your energy and vibration. Write out a daily list of gratitudes for a month and see how your life transitions. Make your statement in the form of an affirmation such as “IAM so grateful ….” Even if you don’t initially FEEL grateful for the lesson, situation, or person, writing down a statement of gratitude shifts your perceptions and emotions, so you resolve it.

An Attitude of Gratitude

Sometime it’s easy to get caught in our thoughts of what we believe is missing in our lives instead of embracing what we do have. See if your attitude or perspective about your life changes after watching this video.
What are you telling yourself you can’t do? What are you taking for granted? What are you grateful for?

To prepare for the manifesting, write down a list of goals or intentions you want to attract or issues you want to release during the lunar cycle. After the cycle is over, review your old list crossing off goals achieved and file it, then begin a new list for the new cycle. To maintain balance in your life, look at goals on several different levels including financial, spiritual, mental, emotional, and physically.
