Take an Imagination Vacation

Take An Imagination Vacation

Did you ever notice that the things you desire to manifest show up when
you're not expecting them to? Or whatever it is you want seems to elude you
until it magically appears when you are not pushing for it or constantly
thinking about it? Perhaps if the things you desire to manifest are not
showing up, it is time to take a break . . . to really let go and release
that which has been constantly on your mind, to let go of that which has
been struggling you, troubling you, and making you feel incomplete. Yes, it
is time to relax, time for rejuvenation, time for an imagination vacation.
You may be wondering, what is an imagination vacation? Let's start with the
imagination, the imagination is vast, unlimited, and powerful. The
imagination takes you beyond the limitations of the human mind into a world
where infinite possibilities coexist. To imagine is to make real, more real
then you think because thinking is limited to the mind, and mind cannot
comprehend beyond its confines, beyond what it knows. Everything we perceive
as real and everything that was ever created began in the realms of the
imagination.

Now let's touch upon the vacation. Hopefully everyone knows what a vacation
is. Quite simply a vacation is about taking a break from the normal, daily
routine. It is about taking time to relax, to enjoy yourself, and to
celebrate life. It is about letting the worries and stresses of the world
wash away as though they never existed. It is about doing what you love, and
allowing yourself the joy and freedom of the experience. Does this sound
good to you, are you ready for a vacation?

Often times we get so caught up within our daily patterns of earnings and
yearnings that we don't take the time to honor ourselves and honor life.
Perhaps you fear the world would fall apart if you took a break, I assure
you it won't! Or perhaps there is a deep seeded fear that you are unworthy
or undeserving of relaxation, joy, and abundance. If you feel this is true
address this fear, face it head on by recognizing it and allowing yourself
to feel it, consciously breathe with it, and allow it to naturally dissipate
on its own. Realize, as a divine child of the creative universe, there is no
question and there is no doubt, that you are worthy and deserving of all the
good things in life! Feel this truth in your heart.

So now you are ready for a vacation, now don't panic . . . you don't need
airline tickets, passports, luggage, more time, or more money. All you need
is your imagination, something everyone has, and its free! This is where you
can have some fun with this. What is it that you would like to experience on
your vacation? Give yourself the freedom to explore the imagination realms.

Perhaps you have always dreamt of visiting a tropical island. Let your
imagination guide you into creating this experience. Create the experience
as best you can from where you are. You may want to use props, as these will
further assist in the experience. For example you could put on island music,
dress yourself in beautiful flowing clothing, put some exotic looking
flowers in vases around the house, light candles that smell of ocean breeze,
or sip on tropical fruit drinks. You could have someone give you a massage
and imagine you are on the beach, with the warm sun relaxing every part of
your body, as listen to the ocean waves crashing upon the shore and you feel
yourself come into a place of deep serenity.

The imagination is not limited, you can go anywhere with it. Perhaps you
prefer a vacation in a rustic cabin in the high mountains. You could go out
and collect firewood and start a cozy fire, light candles that smell of pine
and fir, tell stories with friends around the fire, enjoy a delicious home
cooked meal. You could go for an adventurous hike, breathing in the clean
crisp air, and feeling the lightness of high-altitudes.

This is your creation, do what you love. What relaxes you? What brings you
at peace? What opens your heart to possibilities? Imagine it, allow it,
recognize it, and so it shall be. Using the imagination as your vehicle,
create the experience and feel it as real. This will free you from the daily
struggle and give you that much needed break. Because the truth is, life is
here for you to enjoy and for you to celebrate.

Celebration marks a time of completion and opens the doorways to the new. To
feel complete is an ultimate expression of gratitude. When you celebrate
life you express gratitude for all that is. In this way you honor the path
you are on and the new begins to manifest. As you celebrate you tap into the
raw creative energy that the universe is made of.

You don't have to throw a big party and invite all kinds of people to have a
celebration, you can have a celebration right here and right now with
yourself. You can do this by taking time to acknowledge yourself in a
meaningful way. You could take a relaxing warm bath, get a foot rub, listen
to music, take yourself out to dinner, play fun games with your children, or
completely immerse yourself in a creative art. You could take a walk, not to
get somewhere, but just for the pure enjoyment of walking.

It is about the experience, not the result. This is key. If you are doing
something for the result, you are holding expectation, and often times when
expectations go unfulfilled this creates disappointment, frustration, and
regret. The experience however, is filled with the possibilities of wonder
and joy. The experience is the reward in and of itself.

Reward yourself with an imagination vacation, you deserve it! Quit taking
life so seriously and take a break from your problems to celebrate life. Do
the things that bring you joy, do what you love. And watch as the richness
of the experience attracts even more abundance to you, bringing to you what
you desire and igniting your passion for life.

Relax, Allow, Receive, and Be

Do not doubt yourself, you are a powerful creator. Step into your
creatorship and get out of your own way. Trust that you know the answers or
that they will be revealed to you at just the right moment. And remember to
enjoy life because when you do, you are living your purpose.

And so it is!
