The Vortex Practice
Try this at home.
Recently, while researching for my book, The Math of God, I came to a different understanding of Abraham Hicks' vortex explanation. Without going deep, it's actually a very interesting phenomenon which, eventually, we'll be able to physically measure.
In the meantime, I've been experimenting with to see how it works.
So far, I did it two days in a row and following the first day, I received an unexpected check in the mail from the State of New Jersey for $564, and the second day I received a call from my mortgage company asking me to refinance my mortgage at a lower rate and if I did, I wouldn't have to pay my November or December mortgage payments.
Naturally...I'm going to keep doing it every day to see what else amazing happens!
But it's not really an experiment if it's just me doing it.
So, here are the steps. Follow them carefully and track your results and share them here:
Purpose: To explore how elevated emotional states - specifically joy, gratitude, and ecstatic movement - may influence perception, opportunity, and synchronicity in daily life.
Step 1: Set an intention (5 minutes)
Before you begin, name a single theme or desire. Don't make it a demand, but a direction. For example, visualize your ideal kitchen, imagine financial flow, thinking about healing, imagine improvements in your relationships.
Step 2: Clear the static (2-3 minutes). Do something simple to clear your nervous system like take three slow breaths in through the nose, out through the mouth. Shake you hands or roll your shoulders. Whisper gratitude for one small thing - it doesn't matter what. Sometimes I think about how thankful I am for Kelly, or popcorn, or my dog, or rainy Tuesday mornings in the fall.
Step 3: Enter the Vortex (10-20 minutes). Choose music that lights you up - something that makes your body want to move. It can be any music, but it should ideally be music that elevates your emotions. Avoid harsh lyrics, sexually explicit lyrics, heartbreak lyrics, lots of minor chords, or anything that brings you down. For me, I've found a few Supertramp songs that work - Easy Does It, The Meaning, Downstream, Even In The Quietest Moments, and several others. Make sure to share what songs work for you! As the music plays, let go of all self consciousness (I do this alone). Dance, sway, move however your body wants. Let the music lift your emotions as high as they can go until you feel rapturous. I've found that closing my eyes, or even rolling them back in my head, and holding my hands in the air helps elevate my emotions. Just be sure to be authentic.
Step 4: Fuse Emotions and Imagination (5-10 minutes). Once your fully elevated - heart open, body humming, maybe even sweating a little, bring your intention to mind. Visualize it as if it is already real. Feel relief, gratitude, joy, and satisfaction of it being done. Let that image linger as long as you can without attachment - block out hope, despair, courage, resolve, fear, or any other emotion besides joy, rapture, and gratitude. Maintain it as long as you can - ideally for 17 seconds. Don't count the seconds, but get familiar with what 17 seconds feel like ahead of time, and maintain that state for that long. After that, whisper "thank you" and fully release. Keep doing this as long as you want. I've been doing it while I'm washing dishes, mopping, or vacuuming, and I do it with each of my favorite songs that comes on.
Step 5: Anchor the state (2 minutes). When you finish, stand still and notice your body. Say out loud something like, "This is my natural state of abundance." Breathe deeply and comfortably. This trains your body to recognize the feeling so it can return there more easily later.
Step 6: Observe the Ripples (Ongoing). Over the next 24-48 hours, note any circumstances, gifts, surprises or inner shifts. Log them without judgement. Remember to be like the mustard seed - detached from outcomes.
Step 7: Share your findings. Here in the community thread, talk about the music you use, things that happen - large or small. Describe what you felt, what happened, and what you learned.
Remember: this is an experiment. In the worst case, you feel really good for a while, listen to some great music, and nothing happens. In the best case, everything you ever hoped for comes you way, perfectly blessed and in perfect ways. And don't, at all, ever, focus on what you visualized after the fact. Don't be looking for stuff to show up. You can think about how good it felt to be in that state, but once you have your visualization, leave it alone.
Let me know what happens!
