Imagine if, in the story of the Princess and the Pea, the princess had tried to make her bed more cushy? If she had added more mattresses and feather ticks to the pile, it wouldn’t have made her any more comfortable. Not until she removed the pea from beneath the very bottom mattress would she have gotten a good night’s sleep.

In this way of looking at the Princess’s story, that little pea is the issue under the issue. Let’s see how we can find our own “pea” without piling up twenty mattresses first.

Did you ever let the laundry pile up? I’m sure it was never as bad as mine got one time. A few years ago my washing machine broke when my schedule was very busy. I put off the repair and just bought more clothes. Talk about a Mount Washmore

With energy and alignment, we clean up our energy. We get aligned. That’s called being in the Vortex.
But then we get sloppy with our thinking. Or circumstances get a little crazy. And suddenly we’re out of the Vortex.
We forget that it’s as normal to be out of the Vortex as it is for our house to get dirty. We’re disappointed in ourselves for not staying in the Vortex.

One of the most effective ways to change your vibration is to stand in the midst of an unwanted situation and ask yourself, What’s going right? It’s also very hard to do for someone who isn’t in practice. But getting into practice is easier than you think.

By establishing a simple bedtime habit you’ll begin practicing alignment.. Before going to sleep, look back at your day and ask, What went right?

Picture a movie scene where some hysterical person gets slapped in the face.

The shock of the slap breaks the hysterical streak, and the person becomes functional again.

Have you ever been in traffic when you “knew” that a certain car was going to do something wacky? You got an impulse to change lanes, slow down or speed up.

Moments later the other car made a move that would have crashed it into your car. But you were safe, because you followed your impulse.

Imagine going to a restaurant in a totally foreign language. You are highly allergic to shellfish. Fortunately the menu has photographs of the dishes. In trying to communicate to your waiter, you point to shrimp, lobster and scallops on the illustrated menu, shaking your head and saying “No” at each one.

But in this culture, they don’t shake their head to mean “no” and the waiter doesn’t understand. He thinks you’re asking for what you’re pointing to.

The secret of the Fancy Feast Cat has three steps. Chill out and be relaxed. There are really good Abraham processes to help you do just that.

Then, as you feel more ease about about what you want, really good things are going to start showing up in small ways. Think of the equivalent of the cat’s food being served in a crystal dish. A small but significant improvement in the everyday.
