Inspiration and Prosperity Magic

It's amazing how the Law of Attraction works - "You attract whatever you give your attention and energy to, whether wanted or unwanted"

Once I began looking for artistic inspiration, suddenly it was all around me - in magazines, blogs and on the radio. Clearly I am not alone in needing inspiration from time to time. So I am planning some "artist dates" so I can do what Julia Cameron (The Artist's Way) calls "filling the well". As my sister suggested, I am making a journal which I have called "Positively Inspiring" where I can jot down any ideas, make sketches and drawings etc in a completely spontaneous way, perhaps with a theme.

I have also been making another journal called "Dreams Unlimited" which is concerned with "Prosperity Consciousness". I'm a great believer in positive affirmations, and Yoga and meditation help so much with those, but even so, I sometimes slip back into negativity. This journal I add to every day, sometimes pasting pictures, making drawings and lists of things I want manifested in my life, material and non-material. So my new mantra, which I found in a Yoga Journal newsletter, is "I love what comes, I love what goes" which is the idea that when things/people go out of your life a vacuum is created and the Universe will be more than happy to fill it with new things/people. Magic.
