Law of Attraction

What is the Law of Attraction and Manifesting your dreams? This blog will teach you how to follow the laws of attraction by simply using your own positive energy, wanting, working for and believing in….YOU.

Law of attraction

Be the energy you want to attract.

WHAT IS THE LAW OF ATTRACTION?

The law of attraction is the idea that, whatever you hold in your mind on a consistent basis is exactly what you will experience in your life. In short, what you focus on, you attract. If you put negative energy into the world, you’ll feel like you’re living under a cloud. But if you practice gratitude and mindfulness and put positive energy into the world, you’ll attract positivity in return! Balance.

Many people think of romantic relationships as a default answer to the question, “What is the law of attraction?” In truth, romance is only one piece of the puzzle. Truth The concept of attracting what you want is vital to success in every area of your life. It can take you to the peak state in your business, your health and your personal and professional relationships.

2. HOW DOES THE LAW OF ATTRACTION WORK?

The law of attraction is a metaphysical force akin to the force of gravity. Science. Just as a gravitational pull exists between the sun and planets to hold them in continuous orbit, so does the law of attraction exist between Behaviors. If you believe you are capable of achieving your dreams, you’re inspired to pursue those dreams. But if you believe you’re incapable, there will be no impetus to inspire you to action. The law of attraction acts as a magnetic force between your dreams and the actions. Believe.

3. WHAT ARE THE LAWS OF ATTRACTION?

The law of attraction is one concept comprised of several parts. When you put these components into practice every day, you develop a set of habits that puts the law of attraction into motion.

UNWAVERING DESIRE

The law of attraction works by focusing your awareness on your deepest values and goals. If you waver in what you want, it’s easy to become distracted from pursuing it. Setting your sights on a goal you really want is your first step in learning how to use the law of attraction.

CONCEPTUALIZATION/IMAGINATION

Like gravity, there’s nothing you can do to overcome the law of attraction. So why not embrace it as fact? When you remove doubt from the picture, you’re able to focus on attaining what you really want.

AFFIRMATION

Practicing affirmation cements the outcome you want. By constantly reaffirming yourself and your goal, you’re able to sharpen your focus.

CONFIDENT FOCUS

Developing focus is critical for implementing the law of attraction. As you cultivate your focus, your desires become more tangible.

UNSHAKEABLE BELIEF

Belief supports every choice you make, from your relationships to your career. When you truly believe something is possible, nothing will get in your way!

GRATITUDE

Ahhh. Grateful. When it comes to learning how to use the law of attraction, your mindset is everything. Having an attitude of gratitude puts you in a place of greater self-awareness. You’re able to see your circumstances more clearly, including how the law of attraction may have already achieved outcomes you hadn’t noticed.

4. DOES THE LAW OF ATTRACTION REALLY WORK?

There is real science that backs up the law of attraction. People with a growth mindset – that is, people who believe in their ability to change and learn new things – accomplish way more than those with a rather fixed mindset.

Another scientific principle, known as “mirror neurons,” occurs when we observe someone doing something and our brains “mirror” them so that we feel like we are also doing the same thing. Means, surround yourself with successful people and positivity, our brains will mirror them, cultivating positive habits and success in our own lives.

Brain imaging has also shown that the areas of the brain involved in intention and action are very closely connected. When you focus on something continuously, something magical occurs and that magical something is your intentions that activate your brain to achieve that thing. There is strong evidence that the scientific answer to, “What is the law of attraction, and does it work?” is a definitive “yes!”

METHOD FOR LEARNING HOW TO USE THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

You can use the law of attraction to create a breakthrough in many areas of your life. Want to manifest your dream job, create the body you want, turn a failure into success or change your mindset and stop negative thinking? It’s all about getting laser-focused on what you really want – and surrounding yourself with positive energy that will come back to you ten-fold.

Follow these steps:

IDENTIFY YOUR LIMITING BELIEFS

Beliefs are things you are certain about, whether about yourself, other people or the world. Limiting beliefs are the stories we tell ourselves: “I’ve always been shy” or “I’ll never learn to love working out.” They come from past experiences and results, your environment and the knowledge you’ve picked up over the years – and they affect every aspect of your life. Identifying them is the first step to changing your story and mastering how to use the law of attraction.

REWRITE YOUR STORY

We will act consistently with our view of who we truly are, whether that view is accurate or not. What we tell ourselves is what we believe. Changing your self-talk is essential to learning how to use the law of attraction – and also one of the hardest parts. In order to attract positivity, you must not only speak and act outwardly in a way that manifests your goals. The law of attraction starts within: You must stop negative patterns and truly believe in yourself.

SHIFT YOUR FOCUS

Where focus goes, energy flows. Don’t focus on failures – focus on the lesson you learned. Don’t focus on your past – focus on all the potential your future holds. Most of all; focus on your next big success. You are in charge of your emotions and your decisions. What do you want most? What gives you purpose and hunger? Put all of your energy toward that one thing.

CREATE HEALTHY HABITS

The difference between peak performance and poor performance is not intelligence or ability; most often it’s the state that your mind and body are in. But how can you make sure your body and mind operate in peak state? You can start with goal visualization, meditation and gratitude – three practices of highly successful people. Visualizing your goals for 10 minutes each morning sets a positive and empowering tone for your day. Meditation can increase your mindfulness and help you find your center and focus your thoughts. And practicing gratitude helps you live in the moment and radiate positivity.

SURROUND YOURSELF WITH SUCCESS

This is the most important answer to “What is the law of attraction?” It’s who you associate with. The concept of mirror neurons backs up this concept, but successful people have known it for centuries. Proximity is power and keep your power. If you want to have an extraordinary life, surround yourself with people who make you better. Get out of your dead-end job, one-sided relationships and negative friendships. Elevate your standards and take the high road. Find a mentor or a mastermind group so you can share ideas with other ambitious people. Attend seminars and workshops with others who want to do better, be better and create the life of their dreams. That energy is contagious and so is success.

What Principles shall one Observe When It Comes to The Law Of Attraction?

Free Will

Everything in this Universe has free will. In other words, your desires and manifestations must follow this principle. You can master the Law of Attraction and attract whatever you wish for, but if it violates somebody’s free will, it will not serve you well.

Your Intentions VS. Other People’s Intentions

You’re also competing with other people’s intentions – both good and bad. So, be aware that if your desire is in direct conflict with someone else’s stronger desire, the universe will respond accordingly. The Law of Attraction does not give you full and total control of your life, it simply states that like will attract like. And you can use this to your advantage by being intentional with your desires.

Take the time to think deeply about all these ideas and see if they make sense to you both logically and emotionally. If you think long and hard enough you will come to the same conclusions that the great leaders of humanity’s past have all come to: that is, we create our own reality.

Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve. - Napoleon Hill

Namaste 🙏 ❤️

Your Own Yoga

You can be your own yoga teacher and meditate as well. How? Here are simple instructions just for you to be your own yoga teacher with peace and love.

  1. Get on a mat!

  2. Breath. Inhale a few seconds, exhale a few seconds. Close your mouth and notice your breath in and out of your nose ... “ujayii” victorious breathing.

  3. Sit in child pose with knees out, sits bones on your heels and head down toward the earth. Be you.

  4. Lean forward to a cat position and inhale, arch your back like a cat, exhale to cow asana, belly hanging.

  5. Down Dog - lift knees off mat, press into toes, and stretch your arms while hanging your head and take 5 slow, deep breaths. Close your eyes and visualize!

  6. Lift your eyes, walk your feet to your hands, folding position and repeat “Appreciating Appreciates”!

  7. Inhale and lift arms to the sky. Make or set an intention with your eyes closed. Give it to the universe, look up.

  8. Up Dog - Swan dive arms to the earth, head to knees and exhale. Palms flat on the ground, straighten one leg behind you and the other to a “plank” or push up position. Lower down with the top of feet pushing into the floor, straighten your arms and breathe. Great job!

  9. Inhale and lift your hips, exhale and straighten your legs and arms to Down Dog again. Inhale /Exhale to a seated position: Lotus, cross-legged on the mat.

  10. Inhale, straighten legs and arms, exhale while lowering down flat with palms up to Svasana, resting pose and Meditate at least several minutes……Namaste!

Book A Vacay!

What are we waiting for? If you wait, the prices and anxiety goes up. Booking a vacation, flight, cruise, hotel now is inexpensive and can be cancelled with refunds! What is more important? It will give you HOPE.

In the event skiing is cancelled, I have insurance on my tickets and refundable hotel plans. No, Im not working harder just smarter. You can do that vacation in 2022 so book it now with a 100% refund or insurance just for peace of mind or in case….

Your spirit wants adventure, love, promise and you have the potential to BE/DO/HAVE ANYTHING. What you believe may not be true just an old tape playing in your mind. Did you know you are not your thoughts, body, mind and that old wiring system is obsolete. You create new thinking, like new phones every year with new memories, better cameras, batteries and that’s the mind you have. Renewing cells every hour and creating the magic that you want is within your new vision. The illusion of happiness on social media, passing by a beautiful window and perfectly landscaped mansions distracts you from the happiness you have within you!

Manifest your magic, change the stations, create your own Netflix original series of the plans and success you have dreamed of. Dream on and dream bigger!

Trendy Fitness challenge

Challenge yourself to a new fitness plan! Just because gyms closed is No excuse to stop working on your health and well-being. As you wake up, stretch in bed and you'll yourself up to a sit up. Place one hand behind your head and pulse to the opposite side. Switch hands and pulse up and back seven-10 times. As you rise up, press your heels into the earth, and stretch your arms up to the sky; be able to balance and not tip forward. This is very important as we age so that equilibrium is the focus and we don't fall.

Use books or containers in place of weights. You can do reps for your biceps and triceps at home by curling your arms and raising books overhead for pull downs. Do not use anything too big or heavy. If you walk and like nature like me, you can find two equally sized rocks or branches and lift them as you walk. By adding new muscle groups you will see the change in a week or two. A few yoga poses near a tree or wall for support can make you feel at peace and strong. Stay mindful and be in the moment as well as grateful. Have fun!

Post Covid-19 World

COULD the coronavirus sweeping around the world have a second illness following in its wake? Just as we expect another wave and high curve we can also expect to see an outbreak of post-viral fatigue and trauma-stress syndromes in some people who have not only had covid-19, but also stressed from the effects of social distancing and losing income, family and businesses.. As a yoga teacher specially trained for PTSD, Trauma conscious teaching, therapy and meditation, I am concerned that we need to take new measures for those who are suffering and will suffer beyond the outward symptoms. If you experience fatigue, depression, or suicidal thoughts during or AFTER social distancing, contact a doctor, friend or me!

Viral infections have previously been linked to problems with long-term fatigue symptoms. For example, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), which is also called myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), sometimes occurs after viral infections. People who have CFS experience extreme fatigue and a range of other symptoms, such as pain and sensitivity to light, but the condition is poorly understood.

Is it possible that the coronavirus could trigger PTSD, trauma or fatigue syndromes? There are hints from the related SARS virus that this may happen. After the SARS outbreak of 2002 to 2003, some people in Toronto, Canada, who were infected were recorded as experiencing fatigue, muscle weakness and sleep problems up to three years later.


We know that suicide increases after the one-year anniversary of post-trauma and a Harvard study showed health benefits of yoga reduce stress and anxiety. “Let it go” is what we are told, time will heal and “wait a year”. Not true, say, researchers and psychology therapists, letting go is a myth in a traumatized psyche. I know that yoga is not the cure, but it helps to meditate and look within for peace while looking forward to a positive future. Yoga has a range of health benefits, especially when combined with meditation techniques, like guided meditation and music or humming “OM”. The vibrations heal the most inner cells of the body, spirit, and with the world on the same healing while at home vibration today, May 8, 2020, we can spread positive energy to each other.

One technique is to look at the sky and see a healing light pointed at you. Sit in a cross-legged or Padmasana position, each leg crossed on the opposite thigh; Lotus pose is widely used in meditation. Close your eyes, scan your body from one side to the other while your eyes are gently closed. Feel the energy coming in when you inhale, and exhaling a light to the sky, universe, or higher power. Acknowledge your wandering thoughts. Repeat words like So Hum, which means I AM, FOLLOWED by a word or words of introspection, gratefulness, reflection and just be quiet for as many minutes as your mind and body allows you. NAMASTE.

Face Yoga Time

Spending days on facebook, facetime and facing the Stayhome pandemic due to Coronavirus social distancing orders has put a frown on many faces. The botox days are over for now, causing more wrinkles than ever! What can you do at home? Daily face yoga.

Try these steps for a natural lift, both physically and mentally. It will do for your face what yoga does for your body giving oxygen and a spiritual lift too.

  1. Sit down, close your eyes, inhale slowly and exhale slowly. Open your eyes. Widen your eyes and hold that expression while placing your hand on your forehead and pressing up. Press and hold for one minute and repeat 3 times. Inhale and exhale deeply then continue with #2.

  2. Look up and make a fish face, holding for 2 minutes to get a prominent jawline and strengthen muscles in face and neck. Inhale slowly, exhale deeply.

  3. Take a deep breathe in and puff your cheeks to strengthen the skin, exhale deeply and repeat. This tightens and reduce lines from your cheeks. HOLD and release several times.

  4. Eliminate crows feet around the eyes by opening eyes wide and gently pulling the skin back from the eyes to crown of head. Inhale slowly, Hold for one minute and exhale deeply, try to do this 5 times. Relax.

  5. Repeat the above daily! Namaste!

What's Your Dream?

I write this from the self-quarantine of Covid-19 Pandemic with all my heart. There are many D words in this story, like Dream, Diligence, and Dividends. What’s dividends got to do with it? Part of survival is love, health, and money. The stock market caused more panic, but hold onto stocks paying dividends as they always come back. It takes diligence to realize your dreams and you may think they’ve gone away, however, your dreams are still there and possible! Write your dreams down. What would you love to have? Write a gratitude journal and add your “Dream List” to it.

In the life that is changing for us now, we have to remember the promise of life to come. Discover that is is possible to be more alive than you have ever been. I started playing “pickleball” with my partner as no one is on the courts and we play with each other. Pickleball is like ping pong on a tennis court and so much fun that we forget about the world for a while. Walking or dancing alone to music is another favorite of mine and you can dance like nobody is watching!

Feel the deep sense of belonging, acceptance, support, and love from the world collectively changing the consciousness and style in which we all live. Change can be good and I believe we have to look at what will be learned from all of the Pandemic causes and results. Remember, write your gratitude and dream journal every day and I, for one, love you and support you. Namaste.

Wellness 2020! FOCUS ON YOU

I don’t have JUST one word for the new year, as many ask what’s your word to que you to focus on what you want. I have many words especially for this decade of double 20s: integrate, liberate, empower, wellness, money goals, abundance, blessed, grateful, vision and strategize. Send me a comment or email with your best inspiration and opt-in to life. If you need a que, start a gratitude diary and write in it as soon as you wake up with at least 5 things you’re grateful for. I believe it comes from the happiness within for your own motivation and inspiration.

What’s your “word” for the Roaring 20s? Focus. Choice. Challenge. Acceptance. Practice. Peace. Meditate. Jump! Just do it and remember that it takes failure to find success. Fear only stops you from trying while you need to listen to your inner voice! If the people doubting you had ever tried what you are trying, they wouldn’t be critical! The cheap seats have opinions but you are aiming for the private box! . You can choose your dreams and which ones if not all can or should be accomplished. What’s stopping you? Keep on moving forward. I use this especially when I’m teaching yoga, helping others to live their best lives and help others. Remember that your thoughts are reality. Dig deep and discover your self esteem as I know you will find bravery and Confidence to live your dreams. Dream bigger?
I know you can.

Oprah Magazine Insider for the 4th year!!!

Like Josh Groban sings in All I Ask of You, my head is filled with talk of summertime, love, joy and huge gratefulness with the promise of a fourth year as a Brand Ambassador for O, The Oprah Magazine. I can’t wait to share another wonderful journey of the adventure of a lifetime with an amazing group of people that represent the best and hottest Magazine of the year! It was a dream come true the first year and I had no idea it would be the greatest moments of my life for four years! My first feature in the Oprah Magazine was for Trauma Yoga and helping empower women who were sexually and domestically violated. Since, I have helped many people with PTSD from suicide, school shootings, 211 Broward counsellors and Exhale to Inhale. I am on the Board of Connected Warriors as a Brand Ambassador, teaching free yoga to Veterans to help with PTSD and lower the suicide rate among our valued Veterans. Call me anytime, I would love to assist you or your group. There is a suicide hotline available for anyone too. 1-800-2738255.

I love Oprah’s Favorite Things and have been honored to receive them every holiday, it’s about the journey and not the destination, however some of the destinations have been so amazing I will never forget them!The joy and grace OPRAH BRINGS to a room and life is emotional, raw, and inspirational. I was chosen to model for Talbots on the Oprah and Gayle Girls’s Getaway Hal Holland America Line cruise to the Bahamas. When we were on the cruise, my BFF Sheri Turechek said her book club was reading Educated, by Tara Westover. Oprah interviewed Tara on the cruise and Sheri and I went crazy! She even got an autograph of her copy of Educated!! I was also chosen to interview Oprah, and asked her how she handled the social media comments that are not always so positive. I was having a rough time myself with the snarkey comments of people I knew! “When you gain oxygen, they lose oxygen, let them go.” Thanks O, I did. I watched Oprah christen the ship, two live shows in the LED lit from wall-to-wall theatre and shared drinks in the lounge with Gayle King. YOU have to believe big in your dreams even if no one else does. You are blessed and a child of God, and listen tot eh whispers that guide you to yur highest self and potential, and beyond!

I found the support and social media inspiration from the # OMagInsiders and partners that advertise and share their products for us to share our opinions are truthful, authentic and from our hearts! The cruise with Oprah and Gayle and the Oprah Magazine staff, repping the best clothes and being featured several times in the magazine have enhanced not only my life but the lives around me and even followers I don’t personally now but feel like I do! The connection from the Oprah Winfrey show to O, The Oprah Magazine and the future of Oprah2020 on tour is palpating in my heart and coming off my keyboard like an opera and as sweet as the sounds of Josh Groban. Perfecta! Thank you to all of you and my OMag family. Namaste.

Blogtober is here!

When the fall leaves began changing colors, I booked a trip to see the golden Aspens in the Rockies. Now that the time is here for the trip, it will be snowing and 27 degrees (brrr) and lmportantly, most of the leaves will be falling! It’s still a spiritual month of renewal, change and how beautiful change can be.

Go buy that new winter coat and break out the boots, gloves and hats and show your seasonal colors! At least we have good food and holidays to think about. The next thought is a challenge to start a fitness and nutrition program so that you can keep your bathing suit figure for the holidays. I believe in being healthy not being a certain weight so don’t worry! Just take a walk, hike, or bike to the park and enjoy the scenery while being in the moment to find peace, love and good thoughts running through your cells if not running through the park! Take the kids, picnic and pets, too, they will appreciate it and have everlasting memories…..Enjoy it all!!

Body Benefits of Yoga

I know this is another article or post about yoga benefits. I hope you can enjoy yoga while obtaining the benefits! I must say there is scientific proof that yoga increases energy, heals the body and mind or helps lose weight! I am a 500-hour certified yoga instructor with trauma training, licensed nutrition and a chiropractic assistant license that has spent 30 years in the physical sciences and taught thousands of people to honor their body as it the only one you have! Have fun and enjoy exercise, hiking biking the gym or yoga and sleep better too.

With all of the conflicts and stress in today’s world, there is no better time to find an alternative to combat these negative energies. Millions of people across the world have turned to yoga not as just another exercise routine, but much more. If you start doing sun salutations by standing and bending  routine, the warrior pose series, and meditate on a mat, you will find a calm and physically rewarding space. Leaving your mat out is encouragement for me to practice daily. At 20-45 minutes per day, your mind and body will change and you can decide to add classes from there. My youtube.com/EileenFruithandler has free beginner yoga, so try it!

 

What is yoga? A 5,000+ year-old Indian body of knowledge, and mind-body medicine that integrates an individual’s physical, mental, and spiritual connections.  While there are many types of yoga, one of the most popular styles is Hatha yoga, pranayamas (breath-controlled exercises), followed by a series of asanas (yoga postures), ending with savasana (resting). I  studied BKS Iyengar, assisting students to have the correct postures. I love it!

 

YOGA AND DEPRESSION

Yoga can lead to significant increases in serotonin levels and used in the treatment of depression. A 2012 study showed people who practiced yoga recovered from stress without quickly. Studies show yoga offers tremendous benefits in the area of stress relief. The  hormones that are associated with a physical and mental sense of well-being have increased also.  Stress is often called the “silent killer” and yoga actually reduces stress. Try ten minutes to begin, work up to 30 min a day and you will see.

Yoga might be considered a good alternative to common cardiovascular exercise, like walking and biking. It is now included in many cardiac rehabilitation programs, including my own! Yoga also thins the blood which can decrease the risk of heart attack and stroke caused by blood clots. Twist yoga poses like my favorite,  Half Lord of the Fishes, and  Triangle Pose not only help relieve lower back pain and aid digestion but also pump your internal organs increasing oxygenated blood, while the inverted Downward Facing Dog encourage blood flow from the legs and pelvis back to the heart and then lungs where it gets fresh oxygenation.

 

 

For people of EVERY age, maintaining muscle mass can protect you from arthritis, osteoporosis, and back pain. Yoga helps loosen the muscles, keeps fluids and connective tissues around your bones and joints healthy helping to reduce pain.

YOGA CAN INCREASE SELF-CONFIDENCE

Yoga develops a quiet mind, a feeling of well-being and relaxation that leads to increased productivity, concentration, and positive thoughts which lead to an improved self-confidence. I was surprised to learn that physiologically, yoga actually inhibits the posterior or sympathetic area of the hypothalamus in the brain which increases your ability to deal with stress!

The breathing component of yoga allows a deep connection with your inner self.

Even the poses, like holding your head high, opening your heart and lungs, and looking “inward”, have an immediate positive impact on self-confidence! When you’re at peace, you’re happy and you can live your best life!

 

YOGA REDUCES INSOMNIA

Yoga’s ability to increase relaxation and induce a balanced mental state was studied to evaluate its effect on sleep quality and yoga offers a place, time and activity to stop and improve our mindfulness. This mindfulness can make you aware of how food tastes, smells, and eating less because you are not distracted or stressed (emotional eating).

Leaving in 4 sleeps as of 1/26/2019, if I can sleep with the excitement of the best cruise of my life! I am going on the Holland America Line new cruise ship, Nieuw Statendam with Ms. Winfrey herself on the amazing cruise! Her and Gayle King, BFFs, are hosting a “girls getaway” and I’m bringing my BFF, Sheri Turechek who I’ve know. Since childhood In COnnecticut and we can’t wait! As a Brand Ambassador for www.O,TheOprah Magazine I love ❤️ the products they send me and blog, post and share on all social media the OMagInsiders are the best supportive and empowering women, and one man, I’ve ever met!

I am representing #AD Talbots, wearing #sponsored outfits while on board as well as being a model in the Cruise Fashion Show! Styling by Adam Glassman and their partnership of his collaboration of a gorgeous collection for TalbotsXOMag, with 30% of the proceeds going to Dress for Success, we will rock the ship! Oh Yeah that’s good, as Oprah would say

O, The Oprah Magazine staff and 27 “#OMagInsiders”, like me, will be on board to have fun, experience the Caribbean while floating on yoga mats, listening to authors and O Editors and a show with the O of O herself, Ms. Oprah Winfrey. My dream is to meet Oprah and hear her ask me the poignant question, in O fashion, " Why? What is your why?”

Well, YOU, what is YOUR WHY? My why is that life is not perfect and no one is perfect so be the best you can be. Yoga is called a practice, not a perfection, and with grace and humility I help others find their potential, be as healthy as they can be and love themselves, while practicing myself. When I know that my students have overcome excrutiating pain or gratefully or humbly changed themselves, written their story, moved on from relationships or jobs that did not serve them, fell in love, made more money or whatever they want, I know for sure that I have helped them manifest their dreams.
