I recently wrote an article about the law of attraction. The law of attraction says that we attract into our lives everything we think about. The way we think about things is very important, we can use the law of attraction to get what we want, but if we don’t think right, we can block certain things from coming into our lives, without even realizing it. The law of attraction can be applied in many areas of life - health, relationships, money, and many others. I decided to write this article about attitude towards money and how it can affect how much of money you have.
The Power of Money
When I was in my early twenties I met some interesting friends who had psychic abilities. I was very ambitious and quite eager to have loads of money when I start my professional life. So back then I asked one of my friends during a tarot session: “Will I be rich?”. Her answer surprised me. She said that I would first have to sort out my attitude towards money. So I asked: “What do you mean? My attitude towards money is good. I would like to have loads of money. I don’t think there is anything wrong about having a lot of money!”. Back then Read more…

Desire To Want More
People are designed to want to live a better life - always. If you have a salary at a certain level, you learn to live with that salary by developing certain habits of spending money. At the end of each month, you may end up spending all the money you’ve got for the month and think that it would be great to have a higher salary. You make plans in your head what you would buy if you had a higher salary, you can find many ways that your money can be spent to improve your life. This is quite natural, everybody wants to have more than they currently have. So in fact, most people end up spending all the money that they got for the month, having exactly the same bank account balance they had before they got their last salary.
So what happens when you actually get a salary rise? Usually, nothing changes. You immediately start spending the additional money you got. You buy the car that you wanted, you get a bigger house, perhaps you start buying a better quality food. Your monthly expenditures increase and at the end of the month, you are exactly where you were before - thinking how great it would be if you had a higher salary and how you would like to improve the quality of your life. You are still driven by a natural desire to have more than you currently have. And again, you end up spending all the money that are available to you for the month. Read more…

Welcome to the 1st edition of the LivingNewAge blog carnival. For the past month other bloggers submitted their articles and I have selected the most interesting ones from them and listed them as part of this article (blog carnival).
It was quite an interesting experience. I got some very interesting articles sent directly to me, rather than having to find them on the internet myself. However, some articles that were submitted were not on the topic of this site. Although some of them were quite interesting, I cannot mention them here because I would like the topic to be adhered to. This carnival lists articles that show how new age tools can be used in real life. By the new age tools I mean tools like law of attraction, tarot, meditation, visualization, positive thinking, astrology, and any other. The key is that the article should be showing how these tools help in everyday life. Read more…

I found that many people are skeptical about the law of attraction, because they think it only works under specific circumstances. One of the most common arguments that I saw is that it can only work when no one else puts out the same intentions, because then there would be conflicting intentions and the intention of the stronger person would win. Other quite common question is how to explain the law of attraction in cases such as child abuse, because surely no child intends to be abused, so how does the law of attraction fit into this? Do children, babies and/or animals put out intentions? Read more…

Many of the readers of this site will already have seen the movie The Secret. Yesterday I watched a follow up movie released in 2008 - Douglas Vermeeren’s The Opus. I loved it so I thought I would share with you what the movie is about.
Although many of the people that were in The Secret are in The Opus movie as well and although the movie is made in a similar style, it is quite different. Read more…

I believe that the way people think is very important and that we can make our life easier by positive thinking and positive attitude. When there is something difficult, stressful or unpleasant ahead which I have to go through I use a method of visualization, which takes me 10 - 15 min and it works.
I have got a few friends who have psychic abilities and one of them advised me to use the method of visualization when I feel stressed by something in near future. When I first tried it I studied at university and I was just about to pass a very difficult exam which I was very afraid of. One week before the exam I practiced the visualization every evening. It is very simple, everyone can do it and it does not need any psychic abilities. You can practice it any time during the day. Read more…

I have recently mentioned the law of attraction in the Law of Attraction article. The article described the basic principles behind the law of attraction and mentioned a film called The Secret
, recorded in 2006. I found some interesting video on YouTube and I though I would share it with you. Read more…

Ever since I was a child, my grandma taught me to treat others the way I wanted to be treated. She said that if I will be nice to others, they will be nice to me. And not only the people that I am nice to, but all other people around me as well. This rule became firmly established in me, and I always tried to follow grandma’s advice, because I wanted to be treated well by all others. But I never knew why this works.
During my studies at university in Prague I met a lot of wise spiritual people when I attended some astrology and spiritual courses. I learned from them to think positively and think more about what I want than what I don’t want. I learned techniques, such as mental projection (visualization) to positively affect my future, such as upcoming exams and job interviews. I used the techniques very successfully, they just worked great for me. Again, I never knew why they worked, but they worked and I kept using them more and more in my everyday life.
I recently saw a film called The Secret. That is when I found why all the techniques I have been using to positively affect my future, including the advice from my grandma, work. They all have one thing in common, one law that explains why they work - the law of attraction. The film uses a documentary format and very well explains the law of attraction. It also shows some examples of people who have used the law of attraction successfully with even bigger targets than I did. It was recorded in 2006, and developed into a book of the same title in 2007.
Since I really liked the film and because I came across many articles about the law of attraction recently, I thought I would describe and share with you what the law of attraction is and how it works, because learning about it answered many of my questions. Read more…

Some people like to sleep longer in the morning, some are early risers and wake up quite early every day. I usually prefer to sleep a bit longer in the morning and don’t mind staying up a bit longer in the evening. My parents were always angry with me when we went to a family holiday and I enjoyed to sleep longer in the mornings - they perceived this as a waste of time, especially when I was supposed to enjoy the holiday.
Even now, I enjoy to sleep longer. If I don’t have to schedule an alarm clock for the morning, I go to bed happier - there are just no limits as to how long I can sleep the next morning, I can wake up naturally. The sense of freedom feels great.
However, I was recently attracted to read about benefits that come with becoming an early riser and I thought that this is not “accidental”. An article that got most of my attention was published by Steve Pavlina. He says that after he set his alarm clock to wake him up at 5 am every morning, he started to see that his productivity increased a lot, not just in the morning, but also during the day. It sounds quite interesting. If he proved on himself that he was more vital during the day, I am interested to see if this works for others as well - definitely worth trying!
So what does Steve recommend in his article? Read more…
