When we mislay a possession, we can easily feel annoyed and frustrated. “Where is that blankety blank thing?” we say under our breath. These are such excellent moments to notice the thoughts and feelings we run and the attitude we take. Paying attention can result in locating an item easily, or struggling in the search.

Recommended attitudes when something is mislaid, We might:

• Tune into your emotions
• Soothe yourself
• Bit by bit ease yourself into knowing you are ok now.
• Get involved in something fun and let the joy of living bubble up.
• Breathe, and let yourself receive.</li>

Below read a tale demonstrating how this can look:

Randi’s Story

Randi practiced using the power of her  focus to feel better. On this Saturday R prepared to attend a workshop.  Midway through her process, she reached to adorn her wrists. Our star thought, “Where are my favorite bracelets?”

Immediately she went around looking for them. Not on table tops, desk tops, bedside stand. Soon R grabbed her purse and went through the contents, looking into the compartment where she often stored jewelry when she took them off for yoga or a healing session.  Nothing.

Continuing with her regime, this heroine ate breakfast, put on makeup and more. Time to leave soon. How about another look in the handbag?  Again, feeling some urgency and frustration, this dear woman went through the sections and the zipper pouches. Nothing.

“Surrender,” thought Randi, “Time to leave and enjoy my day. I release this.  I am fine whether I find these or not.” Quickly, she put on an alternate wrist adornment and left for the scheduled event.

Resolution

Eight hours later, our star returned ready for dinner.  She felt glad to be home after a rich day. During her relaxed evening the thought popped into her head, “I wonder where that bracelet is.”  Getting up from the couch, R went over to her purse, looked into the compartment where she would put jewelry, and there it was. The “lost” bracelet was right where she would put something when she took it off while not at home.

“Wow,” thought the protagonist, “I had looked in that zipper slot at least three times this morning. Now feeling much more at peace I can easily find them. Wonderful!: I love my power of focus, I adore finding lost things, and I love that piece of jewelry!”

How about you? Do you feel moved to experiment with this tool? Maybe you are already great at this.  Please share a story!
