The 100 Day Reality Challenge



I haven't been around in a while. Things have been very hectic. I'm currently riding the wave of curriculum changes in my school, and everything is hitting us very quickly. Above is a work in progress of an animation I'm working on, at least, it's one "render".

I've been having bouts of unhealthy-ness that have been causing my mind to go to that place it shouldn't go. My cough has come back, and I know that it is purely mental, and I need to pull together myself and find who I am before I can go forward.


But, I must say that many things have happened at this halfway point, that I am very proud of. I have improved as an artist, I am more confident in my skill, I was commissioned for over 200 dollars, I grew a lot. But lately, I've been falling into a hole. I snap at people, I am sick, I sleep for longer periods of time.

I need some help to find myself.

What techniques do you use when you find yourself in a mental mess?


Any and all help would be wonderful.

I like the fridge metaphor, thats good!

What is a blessing is that I bet you are so much more aware of your vibrations - and how quickly you want to take action when they take a dip. Its amazing, when I think back a few years ago I could wallow in despondency or boredom for a good few weeks before emerging. There's no way I could put up with that today, thank God! So give yourself credit for the wonderful new skills you are learning.

I thank each of you for your help!
Oh my god, getting these messages makes me feel so much better. I think I will go ahead and journal about some of the things I am grateful for, and get back into vibration. Because, oh being in vibration feels sooo good!

Well, you clean up.
How to you clean up your fridge? You will take things out, take a good look at them and if they don't serve you any longer, you will toss them, right? Then, you clean up the space inside the fridge, which it means give your self a break once you take off all those things making you in a mess. Finally, choose what you really want inside.
Believe me, it is harder than what I've described!

Love, Tatiana

You know the drill! Think "well-being". If you are focusing on all these things that are happening to you and analyze and keep on analyzing, well, the more would come, isn't? You are stuck with "What Is".

It all starts with your shift of your consciousness. Back to basics. Think of better feeling thoughts. Try the game "Wouldn't it be nice if ....." (And, add the things you would like to happen). Do things that you are passionate about. Or focus your attention on something you are joyful about. Get yourself a break. If you can't go on vacation, maybe go to a park nearby and enjoy nature. Start to be grateful for the things that are happening. In the book of Money and LOA by Abraham, it was suggested to make a book of Positive Aspects. You write there the wonderful things that are happening to you. I also suggest clean up your environment from things that give you negative energy.

Sleep is good. Do not worry about it that much. When you go to sleep you go back to alignment. But, Abraham is suggesting before you go to sleep and upon waking up you invite good vibration energies to yourself.

I give you credit for asking help. I heard Wayne Dyer said that usually, when we have problems, we consult the main person available...and that is oneself. If oneself is already in trouble and how do you think oneself can give a good judgment when he/she knows that there is something wrong with him/her at the onset.

Remember, YOU ARE WONDEFUL, CAITLYN! There is nothing wrong with you. You are perfect in the eyes of God. Namaste!

What I sometimes experience, when I have created positive changes in my life, my resistance appears, in forms similar to what you describe. I feel irritable, unwell, sometimes I have a small crisis with money or work. Mental confusion - my head feels fuzzy after days of clarity. Its scary - I think Noooo, why is this happening...(resisting the resistance which just prolongs things!) after I've done so much positive work?

I've concluded its part of the process - its good. Its like Louise Hay's washing the dishes - when you wash dirty dishes, you start off with pristine water. Then all the dirt and grease comes off, rises to the surface. You wash that away, and hey! Beautiful clean china.

I would acknowledge these 'negatives' that come up - be careful not to condemn them. Your inner work has revealed to you parts of yourself that are maybe a little afraid of the changes you are making. I don't mean dwell on any old anxieties/ patterns, but acknowledge them and then release them. Comfort and reassure your self while reinforcing why it is better to move forward.

Keep doing things that elevate your vibration, raise your mood. At a workshop we made a 'Bliss list' of things that made our toes curl with joy, and I still use it sometimes when I need to feel better. Its stuff like taking a walk on the beach, painting a picture, having a coffee with friends.

Oh and to finish, one of my favourite affirmations (courtesy of the Barefoot Doctor)
'It is precisely at the moments when the process appears to be stuck, that the most profoundly wonderful things are about to be made manifest. I give thanks for these moments as I welcome this amazing new phase of my life'

Hope you find this helpful! It sounds like you are acheiving some amazing things, I am really inspired! I am an artist too, but not at this moment using my skills to earn a living. I'd like to, though! Its good to hear of your success. Claudia
