Hi everyone Agnes here and I'm going to do a part 2 for you about the backwards law.
Now in this video what I'm going to do is I'm going to go through 10 of the backward laws and
then I'm going to share how to get immense relief from using it. Before I do that I'm going to read
a little bit from Alan Watts who talks about the backwards law and another guy called Anthony
Tshering and he wrote about the backwards law and love and the backwards law and anxiety. So
Alan Watts says: 'The more you pursue feeling better all the time, the less satisfied you
become. As pursuing something only reinforces the fact that you lack it in the first place.' Okay,
now Anthony Tshering says about the backwards law and love: 'I have known
many people desperate to be loved that usually comes from a place of deep hurt. But ironically
the more these people try and get people to love and respect them the fewer people do. And
more importantly the less they love and respect themselves.' Now he talks about the backward law
and anxiety: 'The more anxious we are the more we try to control everything and every aspect of our
life. But strangely the more we try to control our feelings and impulses the less in control we feel.
It is only with self-acceptance with what we feel and who we are that we can feel more in control
of our lives. There is so much that is out of our control, oftentimes the only choice we have
is letting go over and over again and it's the only way that I have found, the only way to find
some peace.' Okay, now I'm going to read you the 10 laws
and let's see what you think about these.
The 1st one - Control. We feel more powerless the more we try to control our feelings and impulses.
Our emotional lives are chaotic and often uncontrollable and our desire to control them
exacerbates the problem. On the other hand the more we accept our emotions and impulses
the better we'll be able to control and process them. The 2nd one - Freedom.
In a number of ways our constant desire for more freedom ironically limits us,
similarly we can only truly exercise our freedom by the limiting
by limiting ourselves, by choosing and committing to certain things in life. Number 3)
Happiness. We become less happy when we try to be happy, accepting dissatisfaction and unhappiness
can pave the way to happiness. Number 4) Security. Trying to make ourselves feel as safe as possible
only adds to our sense of insecurity. It is only by being at ease with uncertainty
that we can feel safe. Number 5) Love. The more we try to make others love and accept us
the less they will. And more importantly the less love and acceptance we will have for ourselves.
So that's the 1st 5. And the 2nd 5: Number 6) is Respect. The more we expect others to respect us
the less they will respect us, the more we respect ourselves the more we will be respected by them.
I really like that one. Number 7) Trust. The more we try to persuade people to believe in us
the less likely they are to do. So the more we put our trust in others the more they will put
their trust in us. Number 8) Confidence. We will create more insecurity and anxiety the more we try
to feel confident. We will feel more at ease in our own skin the more we accept our flaws.
Number 9) Change. The more desperately we desire to change ourselves the more
we will always feel inadequate. The more we accept ourselves the more we
will grow and evolve because we will be too preoccupied with doing cool stuff to notice.
And Number 10) Meaning. We will become more self-obsessed and shallow as we seek a deeper
meaning or purpose for our lives. The more we try to make a difference in other people's lives the
more profound our impact will be. Ah, so hopefully that will help you to get a bit of relief. So,
how do you get relief - is by practicing the 2nd part of all of those 10 things okay and go back
and listen to them and see if you can apply them to your current situations that are causing you
anxiety and stress and pain. Okay, now if you can also learn to project out gratitude,
learn to project out love, learn to project out happiness. Once you've done this, which is
letting go of trying to get to the destination and enjoy the moments in the journey through your day
and practice these things such as gratitude and love, then you end up with having a happy life,
having a life where you feel loved by others. This is how you do it okay. Now
I find something very simple if you can do this daily it will help you to get into this state of
being way more relaxed about manifesting and getting to where you want to go - 20
things you're grateful for every day. 20 things you love every day and 20 things that perhaps
you feel happy about - glass half full, glass half full, glass half full, okay.
So hopefully you get a bit more out of the backwards law, I find it's brilliant because
there's so much stuff in law of attraction, law of assumption about you know - do this,
focus on this, do it this many times, etc, etc, whereas this is a lovely calm.
That means 'I don't have to do all that' - you can get that feeling from practicing this,
it's like it takes all the dead wood off the tree and shaves it right down for you
to be able to practice simply and easily. So for those of you that have not seen the 1st video I
did on the backwards law I will put it up here next to my head so you can have a look at it
and I will also put some information down below about Alan Watts because he's got a really,
really good body of work and wonderful things that he's written.
And one more thing before I go there is a woman called Shameika - I did 5 questions with her,
she actually asked me to do an interview for the women about fibroids, so if you are struggling
with this and this is something that you need some help on perhaps listen to the podcast that we did.
It is over on her platform, I will put the links down below for you so you can go straight there
and I will also put the link little pop up here as well. So backwards law - relax and release.
Lots of love everyone, I hope you're enjoying this beautiful day. Let me know what you think
about this and which ones of the 10 appeal to you and which ones you're going to put your focus on
and use. Lots of love and I will see you, you know where, you know when.
