Is the physical part of you — with all that you’re thinking and doing — a vibrational match to the larger part of you? Is it a match to your vibrational escrow — the vortex? Recognize the vibrational aspects of yourself and begin to pay attention to the emotions that you feel all day, every day because they are your indicator of the vibrational mix between who you are letting yourself be by virtue of your thoughts AND who you have become by virtue of all that you have lived. Putting it simply: emotions are your indicator of where you are in terms of what you want. So how do I get what I want?
Get a handle on the direction of your thoughts. It doesn’t take much tuning to come back into alignment with who you really are. It’s the consistency of holding yourself there. The law of attraction will begin to reverberate within you and will begin to bring to you whatever it is that you are offering. And if you can hold yourself in a sort of steady alignment with who you are for a very brief period of time, your vibration shifts and then your point of attraction shifts.
And therefore the physical manifestation must shift too. And it’s astonishing indeed — because you have had access to the power that creates worlds for a very long time and you haven’t known it. It’s time for you to stop dabbling around and be this powerful, mindful creator you were born to be. Excited about the clarity of the messages they received from bon-physical beings who called themselves Abraham, Jerry and Esther Hicks dedicated themselves to disclosing their amazing Abraham experience to the world.
Abraham has described themselves as “a group consciousness from the non-physical dimension,” and they speak their broader perspective through Esther. And as they speak to our level of comprehension through a series of loving and brilliant, yet comprehensively simple, essays in print and in sound, they guide us to a clear connection with our loving, guiding Inner Being and uplifting self-empowerment from our Total Self. About Jerry Hicks Jerry’s life reads like a celebrity biography: circus performer, juggler, boxer, singer, gymnast, radio show host, comedian, millionaire entrepreneur. In his words, “Every dream I’ve had — every dream since I was a little boy — they’ve all come true.” As a child, Jerry lived in such poverty that, he says a bit sheepishly, “My mother once resorted to cutting the neighbor’s fence and letting the cows wander in so she could get milk for my little brother.” Yet, by the time he met Esther, Jerry had built a multimillion-dollar business operation, engaging over 100,000 people. His success springboarded almost entirely from a chance reading of Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich. Jerry confides, “I was never much interested in money.
I was more interested in having a wonderful life and being free.”. About Esther Hicks Esther Hicks is a partner, lover, satellite up-and-downloader, laptop toter, agenda manager, fun and games co-conspirator, and, in her spare time, gifted conduit to infinite intelligence! Esther was a girl from a small Rocky Mountain town who “never really thought about things too deeply,” content simply to watch the world go by and naturally inclined to appreciate it. Esther teamed up with Jerry, the man she describes as “the world’s most intense question-asker,” and began to meditate daily. After about nine months, summoned by Jerry’s inquisitiveness and Esther’s receptivity, Abraham came knocking on her consciousness. She has co-authored nine books with her husband Jerry Hicks, including the bestselling series The Law of Attraction, presented numerous workshops on the law of attraction and appeared in the original version of the 2006 film The Secret.

Course Information Your Course Includes: This leading-edge work by Esther and Jerry Hicks, who present The Teachings of Abraham®, will help you understand the emotions that you’ve been experiencing all of your life.
Instead of the out-of-control, knee-jerk reactions that most people have to their ever-changing life experience, this work will put those responses into a broader context. You’ll come to understand what emotions are, what each of them means, and how to effectively utilize your new awareness of them. As you listen to this 7-hour audiobook, you’ll come to appreciate and make peace with where you are right now — even though there is so much more that you may desire. Every thought you absorb will bring you to a greater understanding of your own personal value and will show you how to open your own doors to whatever you may wish to be, do or have. And as you go through the audiobook, you will very likely find yourself thinking, “I have always known this, but now, I KNOW this!”. “Key concepts for happiness, clearly delineated.” I’m one of those “New Age” types who’s read countless self-help and spiritual books, attended many seminars, and absorbed dozens and dozens of CDs, DVDs, audiobooks, and so on.
In short, I’m a “seeker.” So I feel confident in saying that the information that Abraham has been giving out over the last 20 years is among the very best available in English. Clear, practical and worldly guidance is founded on the most remarkable esoteric wisdom. Abraham opens my eyes and refreshes my mind like almost no other source. The Astonishing Power of Emotions is a fine entry in the series of Abraham’s teachings. A few short chapters up front lay out the “big ideas” that underlie most of their work, and the rest of the book devotes a short, specific section to each of life’s most distressing problems: health issues; weight loss issues; trouble with kids, spouses, friends, business partners; money concerns; loss and grief; job and career difficulties.
The advice is consistent, positive, uplifting and practical. All of the suggestions would be easy and simple for most everyone to follow, and I think apply to a wide range of people. I found value in every section, even those devoted to problems that have never entered my life. I keep reading passages to friends and family — it’s one of those books that I’d like to share with everyone I love.
My favorite statement from the book, and one of its core concepts is, “Nothing that you want is upstream.” I’m making it my life’s motto. Hawley As seen on Amazon. “Astonishing!” This is the fourth book that I have purchased and read by Esther and Jerry Hicks, and WOW, this book is the best. After reading the first three, I understood exactly the message and was trying hard to live my life accordingly, I just needed a little something else, and this was the something that was missing, this book hits the spot with a big bang. I strongly recommend to read every chapter even if you don’t think it applies to you, there is a message to be heard.
I am so loving life right now, finally someone has answered the questions that I have been asking for so long, and finally someone has reassured me that what I have been feeling and knowing for so long is the way that I should have been feeling. I could go on and on about this book or these authors but words cannot explain or do any justice about how I feel after finishing this final book.
I finally feel free and am so ready go move downstream I finally get it and I had it all this time A must-have. I honestly hate putting this book down It goes to bed with me. Thank you Esther and Jerry Hicks, and most of all Abraham. Marsh As seen on Amazon.

The energy that this book was created and written with is MIRACLE energy. Those people who are drawn to it can match their energy to the book and not only receive a miracle healing, but can completely connect with their Inner Being/Higher Self. I instantly came into alignment with my Vibrational Escrow, and miracles have been occurring in my life ever since.

I am standing on my chair jumping up and down waving at everyone to buy this!. KAS As seen on Abraham-Hicks Publications. “Empowering!” This book coupled with Ask And It Is Given has contributed more toward my wellbeing than any or all the time and money I’ve invested in personal growth, books, counseling and whatever I’ve learned off mentors, gurus and teachers collectively. This is because Abraham have helped me get back in touch with that happy, joyful, rugged and astonishing me that I really am. Since being introduced to Abraham’s teachings I find myself less concerned with what other’s, even those wise others, think is best for me and more concerned with how I feel about life, who I am and following that inner feeling thats been calling me since childhood. I feel like a young, passionate teenager again, everything is fresh, exciting, hopeful and full of love. Thanks Abraham, you guys rock.

I was thoroughly committed to these teachings for 5 years. It took me on an emotional high. I felt that my life was amazing and felt I knew the secrets of the universe.
This is mainly what this book does: tells you all good news and teaches you to manipulate your mood so you feel good about everything and deny anything negative. That's why it has all the rave reviews. Drugs would get rave reviews too if we didn't know any better;) So, does it work? It is a dangerous mix of helpful and harmful information.
I know that I felt better and more empowered than ever, which tends to happen when you buy into a philosophy that says you are all-powerful, there is never any reason to feel bad, and you must feel good to get everything you want. Lies can lead to positive change, can they not? The A-H material does promote self-worth, self-efficacy, a better outlook, considering what you want in life, etc. Some of the results I experienced were genuine shifts because of my more expanded thinking plus being in better touch with myself and believing in myself.
But a lot of the results were emotional hype, temporary, ultimately unhelpful, and not based in truth. There are so many other avenues to an improved life, and I strongly recommend those that are not rife with falsehoods like the ones sprinkled liberally throughout the Abraham-Hicks ideology. First of all, this information is being channeled from an unknown source. Abers don't care, they are fiercely in love with Abraham and think that they know everything they need to know by listening to beautiful words that fill them with hope and love and excitement. Now that I am no longer brainwashed, I can't believe how naive I was. Emotions can be manipulated. Feeling good and right about something is not the highest level of truth or wisdom.
Intense positive emotion can have a positive domino effect in your life for awhile, but it doesn’t mean the idea that made you feel good was pure truth and goodness. Please take care of where information is coming from. Don't romanticize entities as perfect, all-knowing, or all-loving. Only God is those things, so unless you foolishly believe Abraham is God, then take care to keep your wits about you just as you would if a charismatic human being was preaching to you. So who is Abraham? Abraham may describe himself as something like 'leading edge, nonphysical group consciousness.' But really, who is Abraham?
An astral entity. He can get away with saying whatever he wants because most people cannot even begin to verify the information! It's all just vague and nice sounding, and people eat it up because they don't know any better. “Channeled” does not actually mean pure or honest or better or without an agenda. It simply means channeled! As for so-called 'manifesting,' during my Abrahaze I was over-the-moon to find the perfect item in a store, get a great parking space, find a nice apartment, have an inspiring conversation with a stranger, or come across a solution to some problem I'd been having: I was psyched to experience literally ANY synchronicity or “manifestation” as they were all signs of my specially cultivated 'point of attraction.' After my Abrahaze, I realized that this is just normal life.
Synchronicity happened before and still happens now, solutions present themselves, people ask questions and the answers show up, just without the special story behind it. When you attach magical thinking and look for meaning in every experience, you find meaning whether it's there or not. It reminds me of that time my family member had a psychotic episode and was finding secret meaning encoded in every event and item. That's what Abraham-Hicks taught me to do is see normal life through a special lens of magic and manifestation. When I finally stopped to look around, however, my life was just NOT any different from anyone else's.
I became practiced in thinking and feeling in a different way, but the life that is promised never came to be. My inner life was pumped up, but my outer life remained a “mixed bag” of “manifestations,” and was utterly comparable to everyone else’s life. If these teachings were presented as an emotional experience instead of a way to worldly success then-well, it sure wouldn't have a huge following, but it would be more honest. Instead it caused me problems. Problems: -I was in denial about what was really going on in my life.
Abraham teaches not to acknowledge reality but to focus on reality as you'd like it to be. I became way over-subjective about everything and gave more weight to the landscape of my inner life than to things that were really going on. This is thoroughly encouraged, but it is not effective nor does it change actual reality. Do you think the most successful people in the world really think this way—all about their emotions, exclusively subjective, purposely blind and delusional? -I did not deal with things in normal, effective ways.
Instead I tried to use my mind and emotions to 'attract' it. For instance, rather than set boundaries or end unequal friendships with people who used me, I focused on all the aspects I liked about these people. I wrote about great friendships. I chose to see only the positive and really FEEL it. This was supposedly changing my “vibration” rather than resisting so that only great friendships could be a part of my life experience. No, of course this did not work. Now imagine using that tactic in every area of your life!
-I spent 5 years in this weird, brainwashed head space where nothing amazing was actually happening even though I believed it was. When I check in with other Abers who are still holding tight to their dreams, I see the same thing: it’s all happening on the inside not in actual human life.When reality attempted to slip in, I would run back to this book, youtube videos, the Abe Forum, the Abraham meditations. Anything to keep me so-called 'on track.' This is very common amongst dedicated Abers. From inside the Abrahaze it feels like you’re doing the fine work of being a “deliberate creator” and staying powerfully focused.
Now that I’m on the other side, I say it’s more like keeping oneself brainwashed.It led me to attempting to create and sustain emotional highs as often as possible. That is not wisdom, guys. I would liken this ideology to using drugs: avoid reality, chase highs, learn how to soothe (numb) your negative emotion. Emotional and self mastery is one thing, what A-H teaches is something else entirely.It created a lot of inner frustration and denial in me because I was not spontaneously feeling my authentic emotions.
Also, you can’t look away from the truth, choose to make up your own truth, and not register the dissonance of that deep down. I can now see this dissonance, frustration, and strain so clearly in the people I know who are still Abers:( -If the teachings aren't working for you, it's YOUR fault. It’s because you weren’t able to resist the ultimate vibration-destroying act of noticing that nothing is happening. It’s because your point-of-attraction was not where you thought it was.
It’s because you weren't actually feeling as good as you thought you were. Abers themselves reinforce this amongst each other and point out possible areas where you’re holding resistance or not “doing the work.” The flaws of the teachings themselves are never responsible, of course.It taught me that emotions are my guidance system, but not in the normal, actually helpful way.
Instead our emotional guidance is skewed by Abraham-Hicks into a system for measuring how true something is: If the thought makes us feel good then it's supposedly a true, worthwhile thought that is aligned with Source Therefore Abraham's good-feeling words that we desperately want to believe in must be true-convenient! But this actually dismantles a person's built-in emotional protection, like telling Spiderman that his spidey senses-rather than informing him that something is not right—actually indicate that he ought to reach for jollier thoughts. And according to A-H, our emotions indicate what we are manifesting: Good feelings mean good manifestations, bad feelings mean unwanted manifestations.
So your basic, very human, very complex emotions get removed from their true context and become something to constantly steer around in pursuit of pleasing manifestations. This is such a misuse of emotion that it is confusing to a person at a very basic level and scrambles our intuition, critical thinking, and authentic experience. Not to mention that the Law of Attraction is not in fact operating based on your mood! -This philosophy is so simplistic and claims to explain every facet of the world. Abers love this because people want to believe that they understand everything that happens in their lives, other people's lives, and the world at large. Abers can't help but feel special and superior because they supposedly know how everything works.
Again, this is not wisdom.It taught me to avert my eyes from things going on in the world. The world does (believe it or not) contain problems, but A-H teaches that everything is perfect and to look at problems means making them worse. So Abers feel very noble. They believe they are keeping the world at its best by simply turning the other cheek and feeling good. I'd like to survey people who have made the world a better place and see if this anesthetized approach was their secret to progress!
-It isolated me from other people: I felt like I knew more than non-Abers, plus I didn't want to waste any time talking about normal subjects in non-Abraham-like ways. After all, it could increase my resistance, make me feel something less than good, and mess up my vibration and my manifestations! -Abers give terrible advice that seems brilliant only if you are an Aber! Husband is cheating on you? Work on your vibration because he could not have done this unless it was in your vibration.
Addicted to alcohol? Take the path of least resistance, which might be continuing to drink. And what is an Aber's measure of success to know if this advice helped them? If they feel renewed optimism, inspiration, and relief.These teachings appeal to those of us who really, really, really, really want to believe that the world works this way: short-cuts, effortlessness, everything you could ever want, a perfect world, no pain, no reason to ever feel bad. This book is full of sweet lies made to sound like the deepest wisdom and made to resonate with the part of us that wants it to be so. Believing harder does not make it so. Having a large, brainwashed fan base also does not make it so.Having come out the other side, I can now see how perfectly all of Abraham’s concepts twist around each other to create an ideology that sustains itself despite being false.
It is intoxicating to us. It incorporates spiritual truths that resonate deeply and make us feel like we have found something we have been missing. But it also incorporates pleasing lies that tempt us deeper and deeper into a false belief system. We are told that the more we believe, the better things will be for us, so we indoctrinate OURSELVES into believing fully. We squash any 'resistance' and critical thinking (and thus our natural warning system) that could mess up our manifestations. We are trained to look for the evidence everywhere in order to improve our results, so we enthusiastically count every positive occurrence as proof and erroneously accept full responsibility for the negative or neutral results too.
We are not controlling every circumstance, life is simply happening and we interpret it in terms of ourselves (.I recommend you google “illusion of control”). If we don’t get the results, our recourse is to focus more, hype ourselves up more, reinforce the false beliefs more. And we repeatedly return to Abraham for the key to making this unworkable system work, and all he does is talk circles around every question, repeat the same unworkable concepts, and fool us into believing that feeling happy is the real success.
There is so much manipulation here, but when we internally consent to believe it for the sake of a better life, we accept this ideology as wisdom and truth and uncritically drink it all in. As for life after A-H, suffice it to say that the truth is always better than lies in the end, and my life has improved on the inside AND the outside. The inner tension from living in such an unnatural state has lifted. I don't manipulate my mood or dream up fantasies and mistake it for accomplishment.
My personal evolution is faster and more authentic without the distorted spiritual beliefs. And I am not handicapping my success in life by over-emphasizing emotional energy in a world that is so much more than that. I strongly recommend looking for inspiration elsewhere if you care about actual success, truth, and real evolution as a human being and soul. These are not just books, they are an entire belief system, and I do not recommend this belief system for people who are serious about their spiritual growth.

These teachings are deceptive and illusory. You will feel all-powerful and tapped into great wisdom, but you will be more confused than ever. Avoid the Abraham-Hicks materials, even if you are not planning on getting really deep into this. After all, would you draw water from a contaminated well or sip a drink with poison in it? I also recommend forgetting about trying to 'manifest.'
I doubt that the most successful people in the world are bothering with the sort of content in these books. In fact I believe that they have reinforced completely different circuits inside themselves than those that A-H will help you reinforce. A-H reinforces circuits that will make you LESS effective, not more. And for anyone reading this who is currently a committed Aber, consider the simplest explanation for why your stuff hasn't arrived (you know the stuff I mean).
If reading this makes you feel bad, it is not because you're separating yourself from the knowledge of your inner being, it's because sometimes the truth just doesn't feel good. You are living on Earth, after all, not in heaven. (Edit: If you are interested in more on this topic, please see my profile for a link to my blog, Responsible Spirituality.).

I also think many readers misunderstand what it is that is being said. As i understand it: The point is-you are where you are and you must acknowledge that accurately (there are ways to do this) and once understood you then, and only then, have a choice. You can choose to feel better or worse. But only incrementally. It is a process. If you choose to feel better, say feeling hatred and rage over despair and hopelessness-you are headed in the right direction.

I think that the human population, in general, is mired in anger and revenge, which does feel better than insecurity, grief, depression and despair. Trouble is, they are mired, and revenge usually begets revenge so there is this awful cycle of hostility and violence, be it interpersonal, religious, cultural, political and so on.

I am grateful that I came across these books. The book begins with some very heavy-handed foo-foo stuff about how this whole thing is not actually written by the authors, but rather dictated to them by some kind of all-wise hive-mind thing called Abraham.

(It's unclear what purpose is served by Jerry, the other co-author.) Since you already know everything, you can use your feelings as your all-knowing guide. Listen to them and obey them! So then we start with a pre-book conversation between Esther and Abraham about how great everything is, which leaves me feeling very strongly. Like I'm about to throw up. I'm disregarding the advice of the book and still reading anyway, though for two reasons: Lach, my total blog hero , recommended this book; and I flipped through to some of the examples that make up most of it, and the advice there seems pretty spot on.
It's about 50 pages of hooky woo stuff and then almost 200 pages of examples to show you how to reframe your thoughts about a whole lot of different situations, in ways that will make you less unhappy, less conflicted, and less self-hindering. This leads me to a slight puzzle: I believe the advice is good, but the whole weird foundation it's built on sounds like a load of crap. In that case, can the advice still be good? Here are the true parts of the book: - Your feelings are there to tell you something.
If you're feeling anxious, sad, angry, etc., then something is amiss with your life. Use that indicator to examine what's going on and fix it. Your feelings stem from your thoughts/beliefs. If you want to feel better, change your thinking about a situation. Instead of dwelling on the woe-is-me and exclaiming about how awful it is, remember it's not the end of the world, calm down, and look for a more positive way to look at it. Freaking out buys you nothing and may make the situation worse.
Here's the part I'd like to believe is true: - If you stop struggling against the current and just think positively and go with the flow, what you want will come to you easily. The rest, I'm not sure what's up with that. Maybe they thought they needed to make up a fairy tale/religion around it to get more simple-minded people to listen to them? Anyway, this book covers the same concept as The Secret: the law of attraction. The Secret is a lot more simplistic and delusional (just pretend all your bills are really checks and be grateful that so many people are sending you money!); the approach in this book makes a lot more sense, other than the foo-foo foundation. I still think there is something to this-how many times have I figured out exactly what I wanted, only to have it appear?-but probably not as much as the authors of these books make it out to be. In order to make a difference, you have to be the difference you want to make.
This means living a rich and joyous life - for this is truly the only thing you will ever have to offer. A life well lived.

A life well lived. If your life is currently problematic in any area, then the best way to start getting more of what you really prefer, and less of what you don't want, is to literally take in new 'uplifting' practical, common sense knowledge on a consistent basis to shift perceptions and expand the possibilities.
In order for you to get everything you want to do, be or have, you don't have to make yourself do anything to achieve results. Just follow your emotions, open your thoughts to the possibility, allow your desires to come forth - and take whatever action you feel inspired to take! I am reminded of what St. Paul said: To one person the Spirit gives the ability to give wise advice; To another, the gift of special knowledge. The Spirit gives special faith to another, and to someone else, the power to heal the sick.
One person is given the power to perform miracles, and to another the ability to prophecy. Someone else is given the ability to know whether it is really the Spirit of God or another spirit that is speaking. Still another person is given the ability to speak in unknown languages, and another is given the ability to interpret what is being said.
It is the one and only Holy Spirit who distributes these gifts. Curl up in bed and read this book to hear soothing words about how you can be, do, or have anything. Enter a magical land where entities of the nonphysical dimension tell you how perfect you are.

Anything that is bothering you, there is an example of a way to talk yourself into feeling better, even without things changing. Will things change? After you delude yourself, it really won't matter.or will it? If you are wanting to change a situation in your life, this is not the book.
If you want to convince yourself that everything is already fine and that you can make the best of this, then look no further. This book will not discriminate against whatever belief system you are coming from, but will steadily try to get you to look at the world from the perspective of the supposed Abraham, the entities that speak through Esther Hicks. Beware: The effects of this book can lead to magical, wishful, and irrational thinking. It can also lead to delusion and overwhelming self-guilt regarding anything that is going wrong in your life. Other than that, venture on. I was leary about reading this.
Esther claims to 'channel' a group of spirits from beyond called Abraham & that made me feel awkward about it all. Something kept nagging at me to read it though, & I'm glad I did. It is written in an easy format of Q & A, but she sounds like she has knowledge of human behavior & psychology degrees! She gives practical, applicable solutions to normal everyday problems.

1) ie: mom has a disease & I can't handle watching her decline=keep in mind your perception of what she's going through may be very different (& worse)than her perception. 2) I feel old at 70=focus on your Eternal Self & not your physical self, stay in the present moment & lighten up.4)My pet died & I can't stop grieving= You're really grieving your loss to the connection to Source(God/Love, ect) that your pet constantly reminded you of. You need to focus on other things that remind you of Source & move forward with healing that part of you, allowing more things to connect you to Source.
5)Thoughts that bring you relief are the key to changing your vibration of energy. In a nutshell.
I enjoyed it & benefited from it. I recommend it. As with anything, read with a skeptical mind, sifting out for yourself any useful pearls of wisdom and discarding what doesn't ring true to you. Personally, I appreciated the idea of how our thoughts can either move us against the current (upstream) or move us with the current (downstream). For example if we hate our job; its easy to let our thoughts take a negative turn, which increasingly makes us feel worse and brings more of that energy into your life (which reminded me of the idea of self f As with anything, read with a skeptical mind, sifting out for yourself any useful pearls of wisdom and discarding what doesn't ring true to you.

For example if we hate our job; its easy to let our thoughts take a negative turn, which increasingly makes us feel worse and brings more of that energy into your life (which reminded me of the idea of self filled prophecies).
Letting our minds dwell on the negative is like moving upstream (or against the current). To switch direction and go with the current (or downstream) we need to 'rephrase' our thoughts about our job, making each thought less negative. This concept, I thought, builds on the idea of what you think, you become. This wasn't my favorite book, but it was worth the time and purchase, for the few pearls of wisdom I got out of it. The was an ok book.
I liked how it takes thinking from negative to positive; a lot of examples I could relate to. I DID NOT LIKE the rant Jerry went on regarding how his/their book was out first and other people are taking exerpts out of it regarding vibration ex. And taking jabs at people from the secret; as did Wayne Dyer in a couple of his CD's (both of these authors publishers are the same so it seems like they are a close knit 'family') But oh my goodness!!! I've read about vibrations about The was an ok book. I liked how it takes thinking from negative to positive; a lot of examples I could relate to.

I've read about vibrations about objects/things, people when I was in high school (longer time then hicks books were out) and there have been books in print regarding the subject; and research on this before that.
His little tirade ruined the book a lot for me at the beginning; later he comes to terms with the rant, but it should have been something he settled for himself; I really didn't care to hear about it. It was a lot of sour grapes. Plus maybe 'other people' have done their research, etc. There is not much to say about this book.
If you like Esther Hicks and Abraham books, then you will like this one. It explains why emotions are important, how to understand why you are having the emotions you are having, and how to turn them around.
That takes us the first few chapters, and then the rest of the book is examples of common situations and how to handle them with the concept Abraham provides. I did find that on my vacation I was using the technique taught in this book with myself, so There is not much to say about this book.

I recommend this book to anyone who wants a better handle on their emotions in order to really stay in alignment with attracting the life you want - if you don't understand what I said, then I suggest reading another one of their books on the law of attraction and manifesting what you want in life. VIBRATIONAL BORINGNESS Straightforward fatalistic preaching, of the most boring kind: 'It's all about the VIBRATIONS, man! Just let go of the oars!'

Read this if you are far enough away from idiotic preaching of/for/by the dunces to behold it with an amused eye. Besides the idea of Esther Hicks being some sort of 'channeling vessel' of the teaching of whom they call 'Abraham' which am not too sure about. Perhaps this book is beyond my paradigm and understanding - because I found it very difficult to get much from this book.
