hello all! i've been more of a lurker due to a pesky firewall i manifested at work, but i wanted to take the time to post about my delicious experience on saturday in stamford. this was my first abe workshop and my mind was definitely buzzing. jody, it was very lovely to meet you.
notes:
there are no "close calls" in death. you are either a match or not. abe told a story about jerry and esther going to cross the street the night before the workshop and how a car almost hit them. it gave a renewed physical focus appreciation and elation about life. in that moment they moved from contentment to passion with a new zest for physical focus.
everything is a vibrational reality first. the most exhilarating experience in life is to catch up with your expanded version of yoyu. you don't have to wait until you croak. this is the work. this is the fun. this is alignment.
your world is about YOU agreeing with YOU. not YOU agreeing with OTHERS. focus yourself into the vortex. (they talked A LOT about focus!)
deliberate creating = convergence with the you you've created
when you are a lover it hurts to hate. the more you hate the more love is asked for. chronic thoughts hold you from the expanded version of you. the stress of not being in alignment holds you from you. justification of "beliefs" holds you in discordance of who you are. the conflict is that you focus more on contrast than your dream. get in the the vortex to sort it out. the vortex is the state where you will have a clear view. every moment you are in resentment you are beating the drum of what you don't want.
abe talked tons about focus wheels. the hardest part is getting on the wheel. you have to have an emotional response/movement to move into the vortex.
got to be selfish enough to get in your vortex no matter what. independence doesn't step on the toes of relationships. independence = aligning with source = rendezvousing with everything cooperative. independence = being a cooperative component.
a questioner fell asleep during the first part of the workshop. she knows she has resistance because she feels bad. she is always extremely tired. has an intense desire to stop the resistance. abe reminded her to not be too hard on herself. thoughts are attractive so if you've been having negative thoughts it is law that they would attract more. if you notice a negative thought try shaking it off by laughing and then pat yourself on the back for recognizing the thought. lonely = disconnection with source. all negative emotions feel empty and disconnected with all that you are. lonely = empty of who i really am.
awareness is just an active vibration. to become unaware of one thing you have to activate another awareness...think another thought.
where you are going is more advanced than where you are. you are moving towards "all you've become".
clarity is in the vortex. get in the vortex to figure out what you want. in the vortex ideas and the means to accomplish them appear. get out of the vortex to put in more dreams and then jump back on the wheel. this is the joy. this is the expansion. from inside the vortex everything looks simple. even contrast. leave the "issues" at home. let being in the vortex be your issue. find chronic excuses to get in the vortex. be a focuser of thought.
focus on the feeling. words alone won't get you into the vortex. we are accustomed to using pretty, positive, happy words but not feeling the related emotion. the words won't get you into the vortex. the thought and emotion gets you in. get in the vortex and the words will come. the same words, stories, memories, triggers, etc that you used last year won't work this year because you have expanded. this is why you need contrast. to know more about what makes you happy/what you DO want to catch up with the expanded version of you. you and the vortex are continuously evolving and in perpetual motion. get up to speed with who you've become. get happy!!! this is how you catch up! focus on the feeling. words are ineffectual unless they stir energy.
outside the vortex - choose outside the vortex food
inside the vortex - choose inside the vortex food
out - drawn to inappropriate
in - drawn to appropriate
(abe made sure to point out that "appropriate/inappropriate" is very individual and based on the beliefs of the individual. there is no truly "appropriate/inappropriate" food for ALL people)
when you are consistently in the vortex you can bring the food you want and desire with you. in the vortex you only see possibility, only well-being.
when you are out of the vortex anything can cause an adverse reaction (question about food allergies).
food sensitivity = insensitivity issue (i took this to be a clarification of if you continuously have resistant thoughts and don't deal with them the larger the contrast/side effect will appear). issues will get big enough to where you can't ignore them. being allergic means being out of the vortex. you are allergic to things that make you feel resentful.
make a stronger decision to focus into alignment. get in the vortex. the line of the vortex is between hope and belief. moving from contentment into passion is the best part of life.
FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS
focus yourself into becoming (have a blast while doing it)
vibrational alignment with desire = grace
grace = building the bridges into the vortex
so much more was said but i got swept up in the vortex energy of the day. the experience will definitely be a chronic reason to get in the vortex. one of the most amazing things for me about the workshop is the feeling of the room shifting in energy with different questions and response. it really helped me understand that this universe truly is vibrational.

Wow! That was a first for me. I mean, years ago I was reading Louise Hay teaching about the relationship between a specific disease and some thought pattern. Later I expanded my understanding and I then realized it is not that specific.
But seeing this observation from Abe themselves... It got me thinking! I am not allergic to any food , but since I was a child I occasionaly have some asmatic events. Am I being resentful? This is cool, another excuse (subject) for me to align with.
Thanks for the food for thought Anne!

Where you are going is more advanced than where you are. You are moving towards "all you've become".
That perspective sure rang my bells!

vibrational alignment with desire = grace
grace = building the bridges into the vortex
I just love the word grace! I am glad to hear Abraham use this term. It's a word that makes me feel good....ease and grace, full of grace, let's say grace.....
Gracefully,
AA

Amen to that Singldiver! I so agree!!
Anne - I sooooooooo appreciate this post. Your notes are beautiful. I am totally getting this CD - no question - it speaks to me! I really loved this part:
outside the vortex - choose outside the vortex food
inside the vortex - choose inside the vortex food
out - drawn to inappropriate
in - drawn to appropriate
which gives such RELIEF - because then you don't have to focus on the food (or lack of food) - but rather when I'm drawn to inappropriate (for me!) foods - I can focus on getting back into the vortex and the food will take care of itself. I love it!

typing the notes was a joy for me!
the largest AHA moment for me was about bring the "issue" into the vortex with you. of course!!! it makes so much sense. if the vortex is where the clarity is, where the ideas come, and where inspiration is housed then that is exactly where i want to "solve" my "problems". i was trying so hard to resolve my issues in order to get in the vortex. no more! now, i'm going to        my way into the  and then i'll see my "issues" like this !!!
 for clarity!

Andrea, I just want to point out that "grace" is not a word Abraham uses normally. In Stamford its use was in response to a direct question by a hot seater who asked "what is grace?"
If the word makes you feel good, however, then milk that as YOUR way into the vortex!
I also want to warn against notes from forum members being "turned into" quotes. Let us be clear that unless a member specifically states that they are directly quoting Abraham, we must assume that notes are paraphrases of what the member heard in the workshop.
That said, these are great notes!! And they brought me right back to one of the BEST workshops EVER!!! Right after the workshop I told Jerry that in my opinion the Saturday Stamford workshop was the BEST so far. It was that "leading edge!" If anyone is wondering which complete workshop recording would be good to buy... I highly recommend it!
Sunday was great too! Some of our forum members were on the hot seat that day! Of course they are ALL good... 
On the last day in Stamford my friends and I were crossing at the same intersection where J&E had their "close call" and a similar thing happened. We all started laughing and saying "yay for expansion!!" Abraham says there are no "near misses" only "misses". Either you are lined up to croak or you are not!
What fun it all is!

Thanks Jody....I know they don't use this word and that's why I posted my delight. It 's a word that I have been playing with all week, a word that caught my eye, caught my attention, caught my imagination....I was so surprised to see "grace" on the forum in workshop notes. It is a lovely synchronicity! Love it when stuff like that happens. 
Oh, I shall definitely get the workshops CD's with your high recommendation and MY question,"what is grace"? Very cool!

Since Esther receives information through blocks of thought vibrationally from Abraham, theoretically we could say that Esther is not interpreting the thought to say grace very often. It was stated by Jerry and Esther that some translation comes through and the best way Esther can interprete it is through words not technically found in the dictionary, i.e. delicious-ness. I don't believe we should get hung up on specific words Abe uses or does not use, as technically the beings who make up the consciousness known as Abraham could be spewing the word grace over and over again, and in Esther's interpretation it comes out another way, but in essence is a synonym to the word grace. We are getting information that is through another party (Esther) and thereby, not directly from Abe, so the exact words may get changed in translation. It is such the case when we do not get our guidance straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak.
Seth told me to quote, "the words used matter not, it is the message that is important." He is laughing here and says, "this is a good example of our use of it is not a big hairy deal." Last edited on Tue Jun 16th, 2009 04:28 pm by Tranquility

Anne, for the great notes!
I really liked these:
- got to be selfish enough to get in your vortex no matter what.
- independence doesn't step on the toes of relationships.
- independence = aligning with source = rendezvousing with everything cooperative.
- independence = being a cooperative component.
For me, as I have practiced more and more deliberate creating and aligning myself with Source -- I feel such a strong independence and it is such a beautiful feeling. And yet at the same time I am feeling this independence, I am so aware of my integration with others that make up the whole. It's an interesting paradox.

I'm usually at 'contentment', these days, and have been exploring ways to raise that general vibration to passion more often! FUN! the most exhilarating experience in life is to catch up with your expanded version of yoyu.
abe talked tons about focus wheels. I ♥ focus wheels! in the vortex ideas and the means to accomplish them appear. Soooo true! I noticed this in my work (art/design) a long time ago, and it just keeps showing its truth to me more and more!
It all flows better when you're sitting and fishing in the vortex! get up to speed with who you've become. get happy!!! this is how you catch up! Oh, ♥♥♥! so much more was said but i got swept up in the vortex energy of the day.
anne
This is wonderful to hear!!! ~ I don't mind missing out on some notes, if the reason it happened was because you got swept up into simply BEING in the vortexual moment!!
Thanks, Anne!
