		<description>[...] Deliberate creators know that a beloved pet has the power to shift us almost instantly from a bad feeling place into a high-vibration. When we are in a high vibratory energy pattern, we become a closer match to our high-vibing desires and therefore closer to bringing them into our physical experience.  Most deliberate creators will quickly admit that their love for their pet(s) is their go-to vibe shifter that works every time!

		<description>Hi, Sejual,

I *love* reading through your list!

I haven&#039;t consulted my kitties, but both of my kitties like to stretch &amp; offer me their bellies when I pass by. I take it as an invitation to stop a moment, take deep breath, connect with their loving energy and let them know how much they mean to me. The looks they give me confirm that we are all connected and they *got* my message (it&#039;s mutual).

I&#039;ve heard of Zpoint and it reminds me of another technique. It&#039;s amazing how all these resistance-shattering techniques are showing up at this point in time~there is always one that works best!

I&#039;m the same way with crystals and pretty much all rocks/stones. They each seem to have a different personality and a beauty of their own. Laughter is, indeed, the best medicine. Even nicer when you get to share it with a loved one!

Dancing is definitely on my list, as is listening to Abe audios. I love to do art, baking &amp; workouts with Abe in the background~gives my left brain good things to ponder while the right side plays! :o)

Thank you for sharing your wonderful list!

Many blessings,
Nancy</description>

		<description>What a joyuful group of souls you are!  I echo so many you&#039;ve listed in your joyfest.  Here are some of my recent ones: 

1. Stroking kitty&#039;s furry purry belly with Reiki. When we plan holidays she has a rider list a bit like rock stars do.  Instead of needing to remove all the brown M&amp;Ms, her rider demands that her cat sitter must be Reiki attuned.  Good thing our friends are so obliging!
2. Hugs
3. Shuffling through crisp autumnal leaves
4. ZPoint - this is a medatative self help technique that melts resistance. It helps me get back to being joyful very quickly
5. Playing with crystals. I feel like a child in a candy shop when it comes to all those gorgeous colours, shapes and textures.
6. The way nearly-hubby makes me laugh every day
7. Healing scents. I love the room sprays that Aura Soma do, or even a dab of essential oil.  When I pay in client money at the bank I&#039;ve taken to put a drop or two of bergamot essential oil with the intention of lifting the energy going through the banking system. Even the bank cashier commented yesterday how nice it was!
8. Dancing to soulful music
9. Cooking, doing creative things with my hands. 
10. Listening to Abe.  The audios seem to go much deeper in than the books. 

Hugs,

Numbers 1,2,3,7,10,11, 12, 16 &amp; 17 are on my list, too! :o) Nothing like a *cat* nap in the afternoon with one&#039;s furry babies. It is a JOY one can only experience in the physical world.

		<description>Another great list! Thank you, Brenda...I second the Abraham-Hicks recordings, specifically when Abe is do a stand-alone talk about a specific topic. Always enlightening and powerful!

I love that you give yourself the permission to release any emotion (your example, a temper tantrum for anger), as that, too, adds to the resistance around receiving.

And, writing...yes, I immediately feel connected to Source as I begin to write, because the information is flowing through me as I type (channeling).

I feel the same on #Mamo (Manifesting Monday, the virtual manifestation circle on Twitter)...the energy flowing through me while envisioning and writing about everyone&#039;s manifestation is *palpable* and incredibly powerful. In fact, the first few weeks I did it, it wiped me out. I must have gotten used to it, because now it just feels *awesome*!!! :o)

Many blessings,
Nancy
