Trance of Scarcity, ignore it at your own peril.

If you ever had a flash of insight you know how wonderful that feels.

Well, I had a few lately and they are definitely coming at a greater rate as well.

It is not because I have become all of a sudden a lot smarter.
It is because I have finally committed myself to learning, I am embracing learning wholeheartedly.

In the past I didn’t believe in learning, I was closed to what was on offer.

I thought I was being smart by critically picking other people’s teachings to bits.
However I am so pleased I got over that and opened myself up to listening what other people are offering.

Since then I have gained an awful lot, I learned so much about how to create an awesome life and as a result I have one.

So no wonder I am excited about Victoria Castle’s ‘Embodied Abundance’ course for which I signed up after enjoying her book ‘The Trance of Scarcity’.
More insights into what is even more possible!

Victoria’s teaches that we live in scarcity and we don’t even know it hence the term ‘trance’.
She also paints a picture of what is possible if we can let go of living in scarcity and start to live a life coming from ‘there is always enough.’

At first I didn’t get the depth of what she was saying but as I continued to listen I got the insight and saw how living in scarcity stunts joy in life.
Instead of jumping sky high with joy each day, ’scarcity’ hardly let you get your feet off the ground.
Living in scarcity causes you to drag your heels most of the time, even when you would like to go full speed and let rip and live voluptuously.

And that so resonated with me.

Most of the time I actually want to let rip.
I get so excited about life but then in no second at all scarcity comes in and tones me down to a level of hardly above mediocrity.
I want to be brilliant and shine and get the whole world to shine with me, I want to cut out drudgery and fear and pussy footing around.
I want to live! Voluptuously, abundantly, no holds barred, going the whole hog, excitedly, gracefully, generously.

All those last words got me. If you live fully you are actually doing everybody a favor, you owe it to people!
When you go through life full out, gracefully and generously you are an awesome sight for everybody to see and to copy!

So Victoria really promotes the notion of enough and unconditional joy.

You don’t have to deserve a good life, you already have it for the taking and grab it fistfuls.

It is giving me that glorious youthful feeling back, when you just went full out with nothing stopping you.
Nothing to taint your joy, your feeling good about yourself.
Feeling great because of ‘who you are’, not because of ‘what you do’.

That is what happening to me when scarcity loses its grip.

This is an awesome gift, take it too and learn to access that feeling of simple undiluted joy by just being you once more.

Let rip and see how it feels, your choice of what you are doing it with, just do it full out with no holds barred and then tell me how it feels :) :)

    The Trance of Scarcity permeates every part of my life, I’ve discovered! But the tools I am mastering as a part of the course give me splendid and life-freeing ways to move beyond recognition into change. Everyone should take this course.

    @Ruth
    Hey Ruth how lovely to meet you here.
    -Ruth was with me on Victoria’s course.-
    I so agree with you how once you know about that sneaky trance you get to see how it holds you back in sooo many areas of your life.
    Until you experience it it is hard to say how it feels, but letting go of scarcity feels darn good to me.
    It is adding colour to my life….
    Thanks so much Ruth for sharing, Love Wilma

    It feels fanfabutastic Wilma, as you already experienced yourself! The thing that cracks me up is that so much of learning how to Be, Do and Have more is about doing what we did as kids, not what we were taught to do. Nothing quite like the Universes sense of humour, gotta love it :D .

    Andy, that is so true, coming all this way in life and now I just want to go back to ‘go’.
    Is that why we enjoy grand children at an older age, so we have company that allows us to whoop, swing, play in the sand, sing aloud on the street, wave to strangers on a bus, believing in santa claus.
    Oh my, can I borrow Rylan please, urgently…..
