With a new year round the corner it is time to start reflecting on the year that has passed and your goals and dreams for 2011. What is it that you truly desire and want to experience in your life? Are you satisfied with your life or would you like to make some changes?
If you are familiar with the Law of Attraction you also know that anything is possible. Whatever it is you want to have, be or do it is there for you. The trick is to align yourself with your future, as if it would already have happened. And when you do this you will also experience such satisfaction that it is as if you don’t need the new car, job or partner you’ve been asking for. Life feels amazing just how it is! If you manage to do this you have great success ahead of you. Feeling blissful and satisfied is exactly what you need to do to attract even more gifts in the future.
For those of you who live in Singapore I will be teaching an evening class specifically about how to make your dreams come true in 2011. One of the most powerful techniques to change your life is to write down what you want as if you already have it. And on top of that to feel grateful for it as it is already accomplished! Are you ready to make your dreams come true? I am!

"Worth the wait" by http://wyartjewels.blogspot.com/
[This is a question written by one of the readers in response to the post "How to attract true love into your life - today!" which is answered by Ann-Sofie;]
How long am I supposed to wait for the man God created for me? I have worked on myself for the better part of 2010. I love myself, I go where I want to go and engage in activities that I have always wanted to. I have ended dead-end relationships. I have mended my relationship with my father. Daily, I list the things for which I am grateful. I affirm. I give thanks. I meditate on having him. I have prayed. I have created lists of the qualities he has. I have created vision boards. I have joined online dating sites. I have informed my friends and family of my intention to marry. I have encouraged my friends in their relationships. I have even called prayer lines and had someone else pray that I meet him.
And guess what I have. Nothing!!! Not a thing!! I have only gone on one date in the past year. I am so tired of going to bed alone. When will it be my turn? I am so frustrated and tired of being alone. This year, I underwent a double mastectomy (did I mention that I am only 36 years old). I went through the most challenging year of my life, with a smile on my face. But he is nowhere to be found. I have lost all hope and faith in ever finding him, as all of that work is tiring….

Dear Tamara,
Let me first say that you are amazingly brave going through the surgeries. I am grateful you are feeling well and don’t underestimate the time it can take to recover emotionally after going through this experience. In my response to your question I will be very honest and direct but please know that this comes from my heart.
When I read your words I can feel a lot of pain. Perhaps since I am so familiar with this deep inner longing for love. I was looking too – everywhere – for Mr Right. Couldn’t understand why a nice girl like me couldn’t find love like everyone else. But the key was, and this is what I believe is essential for you, is to let go. Completely let go of everything; the stress, the activities of finding the man of your dreams and most of all talking about that you cannot find him. Think about it, aren’t one most attractive when you are not available or not interested rather than desperate? People in happy relationships tend to draw a lot of attention to themselves and that is because they are relaxed, satisfied and unachievable. A single person wanting a relationship is many times not satisfied since he or she is constantly reminded of the lack of love. What ever you want to attract into your life you cannot manifest it from a space of desperation, it can only happen when you feel the abundance, that you are ok and everything is well. The truth is that the Universe have so much to offer to all of us that there is no limit to it, the only hindrance is our own mind and vibration. You mention that you are “so tired of being alone” and this is what you need to turn around to “I love and enjoy hanging out with myself”, “All is well” and “Everything I need is given to me”.
So this is what you need to work on; fill your life with so much love and happiness that you almost forget about looking for Mr Right. Let go of it. Completely. Trust me, this will work.
The Universe well know that you are single and have asked for that special someone. The mistake is that you are resisting to receive the love since you are not in alignment with what you are asking for. How do you feel when you picture your future husband? Excited? Happy? Ecstatic? Well in that case you need to start feeling those emotions in your everyday life too, without Mr Right, to be able to align your present with your future. Going from unhappy to crazy in love is a huge step. But going from happy and satisfied to be completely loved up with someone is a very small move. Do you see the difference? It is hard, I know, but it will work. Life always have challenges for us and I believe that one of the lessons we all need to learn is how to love and take care of ourselves. You are the most important person in your life. And by loving yourself and being comfortable on your own before meeting your future husband, you also do yourself a huge favour since you will be more secure and confident with him. If you are too clingy and co-dependent then that will give you problems in a marriage as well.
I know you have committed a lot of time to healing and loving yourself but the truth is that this is a life-long journey and we all need to work on it. And let yourself be curious about life. There is so much more than being in a relationship. I would recommend to open up more to love by dancing and celebrating. Biodanza for example does wonders in terms of feeling more complete and loved. You receive and feel so much love for yourself that you are floating on the air back home! Check it out or anything else you might think raise your energy. Healing and enquiry also need to be balanced with love, joy and freedom, that is what I want to pass on to you.
All the best of luck. You are an amazing and unique person, remember that!
Please do stay in touch.
With Love,
Ann-Sofie

I have recently started to receive messages and reminders about the Law of Attraction whilst sleeping. When I wake up I can remember the words very clearly. This morning I woke up with the words “To receive you first have to ask“.
It might sound simple but think about it; how many times don’t we complain about not having what we want? And that is many times without even asking for it to begin with!
In my dream I was looking to find a matching pair of pens and felt frustrated since the shop had run out of stock, so I could only purchase one. That was when I heard/thought that to receive I first have to ask. And when waking up I felt an urge to share this message about how important it is to ask to be able to have what you want. To complain without asking is simply pointless without first even given it a chance to be available. It is like complaining in the restaurant that you don’t receive any food when you in the first place haven’t even placed an order with the waiter. I knew this since before but it was a good reminder that we all are in control of our own life.
Let it be a pen or something bigger in life that you need to attract you first have to ask for it. Don’t do what I did in my dream and complain or think negative thoughts. You are the director of your life, simply decide what should be in your movie and let it come to you. You don’t fire the actress for not doing their job if they don’t know what is asked of them right? You have to be clear with what you want and what you need.
Next time you moan about something that is missing or lacking in your life, stop and ask yourself if you have made it clear enough what you really desire. If not, then write a wish list about it, think positive and feel happy as if you already have it in your life. It will come to you in no time since you now have made it clear to the Universe what you truly desire.
Enjoy your life, it is all there for you!
With Love,
Ann-Sofie

Last week I had a free tour at a local gym since I am interested in a membership. They offered me a free dance class and I had a lot of fun feeling the effect of the workout which made me smile, laugh and becoming more energised. I simply love dancing.
Afterwards a gym instructor introduced me the machines and weights available whilst asking me “So what is your goal?”. My answer was simple and straight from the heart; “to have fun, I love group exercises. I have always trained because it is fun” I said. This answer was not of satisfaction to the gym instructor at all so he then asked me again but in a more direct way “What about losing weight?… or if you look at your bum from the side you can see that it needs some tightening”. This for me came as a shock, I have never even considered losing weight since this has never been an issue for me. And even more shocking was that he was telling this to people to give them a reason to hiring him for classes.
The reason I am sharing this is that in what ever area of our life; body figure, work, partner or lifestyle no one else has the right to influence, advise or demand from us. Unless we seek advise and help of course. It is so important to listen to our own truth rather than what others are telling us, something that can be challenging at times. I am so glad I am not a teenager any longer since during that period I was battling a lot with fitting in, a battle that one can never win. The most amazing and good-looking people I know are in love with themselves. That should be the goal. And because you love yourself you want to have fun, be healthy and look after your body. It is not about losing weight so that other people can approve of you, it should be a choice you make for yourself.
I am thankful to the gym instructor since he once again reminded me of what is truly important and empowering – having fun. And he also showed me how much I have changed, how much freer I am than ten, and even five years ago. My inner journey has taught me to love myself for who I am, naked or with clothes, with no make-up or with my study glasses on. And that for me is worth a lot.
Do you feel good about your choices in life? Then that is the sign to continue. Someone once said that he only does what entertains him and make him laugh, what is not fun simply isn’t in his diary.
Make your happiness the goal and all the rest will follow automatically. Pure beauty comes from inside and it creates such glow in your eyes, brightens up your face and spread such good energy around you that you will become irresistible to anyone including yourself.
Keep loving yourself!
With much love,
Ann-Sofie
"Broken Heart" by David Goehring
[This is a letter from one of my readers;]
Hi Ann-Sofie, Hope you are doing good! I came across your blog while reading a post on the Osho blog. I really liked your blog and I appreciate your efforts. I think you are doing a great job with your spread love mission. I am writing you this mail, seeking some friendly help, as I could relate to a lot of beliefs in your blog.
I am 27. I am from India and it is common here for the parents to seek a match for their kids. While my parents were searching for a match, I gradually fell in love with this amazing person. We have known each other for more than a year, but it was only this July that we slowly graduated to our new relationship. And it all happened so naturally and felt so divine, that I had every reason to believe that it would last forever. But we had to stop seeing each other after just a month. In spite of the fact that we love each other and want to spend our life together. He has to make the sacrifice due to some really difficult situations at his family side. I totally understand and respect that fact, more so because I know how much he loves me and how difficult it is for him. And I am not making any assumptions here. I have seen the pain, agony and even the tears in his eyes, which he tries to hide from perhaps even himself. And in spite of that, he is putting his family above his own happiness. And he wants me to move on. I have been trying since last 2 months, but it is not that easy. We hardly even communicate now, but nothing seems to soothe the pain of the big hole left in my heart.
My friends have been supporting, but they advice me to be practical and to move on. More so, as he has made up his mind not to keep in touch to avoid making it difficult for us to move on. He doesn’t seem to have any hope of any way we could be together. And in spite of everything, I still can’t give up. My parents, unaware of this episode, have a prospect for me, whom they want me to meet by around month end. I don’t know if I am ready to move on. I don’t want my marriage to be based on a compromise. I don’t want to involve my parents, as they will end up being anxious over something which seems out of control.
Its nobody’s fault, no one is to be blamed. But the loss is mine. I found the love of my life, true and beautiful in every sense and before I could even absorb myself completely in the experience, I am supposed to let go! Where did I go wrong? Is there any way I can bring him back or cope up with the life without him being a part of it? Is such a life possible when someone has touched your soul?
Love…
“Just me”
[Reply by Ann-Sofie;]
Dear “Just me”,
I feel with you since your words definitely come from deep within. I have been heart-broken too and it is never easy to get over but just as your friends suggest, you will eventually move on but not until you are ready. Personally I don’t believe in match-making couples, especially since they are based on the parents requests and believes. Who are they to know who will touch your inner-most parts? Who are they to choose who you are gonna spend the rest of your life with? With that said though I am sure it is possible to have a connection and perhaps even fall in love with the partner over time. But as I see it you are a very romantic and emotional person, just like me, and for us compromises won’t do. Is there any way you could explain to you parents that you are not ready to get married or that they could let you get more involved in the process?
For the other part you need to appreciate more of what you shared with this very special person. Isn’t it amazing that you met someone who opened up your heart at soul-level? Aren’t you grateful for those moments you shared together? Would it make you feel any different if you consider him being Heaven-sent to show you real love, for you to learn one of the most important lessons in life? I think it might help you to look at this in a wider perspective and to understand that life is a journey of growth. We cannot always decide what will happen but do know that you are safe and your higher self present situations that is for your soul’s best knowledge. If he is meant for you, then the two of you would find a way back to each other, simply pray for experiencing what is best for everyone involved.
As for actions I would recommend you to write a good-bye letter to your dear loved one. If you decide to really send it or not is up to you. If you feel in your heart that there is a chance for the two of you then have you truly told him how you feel? Include everything you are grateful for, every special moment and memory you shared together. This will also help you to let go, look at the situation with some distance and at the same time feel grateful. We cannot decide who are to love us, all we can do is to love without expecting anything in return, a very big quest for human nature. As Osho says if love is non-possessive and non-demanding, only then you experience true love.
I would also recommend to write a love letter to yourself. Write at least three pages of pure love messages to yourself and how deeply you deserve to be loved, both from a partner but also from yourself. A good relationship always starts with yourself. It has been said many times but just as often it is being over-looked.
When you feel ready, and this can take a while, I would highly recommend a wish-list for your future husband. Even if your parents are to choose the person you can highly influence the decision with the magic of Law of Attraction. Simply write down the qualities you would like to have in your future marriage. The more grateful you feel about everything you already have, and will receive, the more it can multiply in your experience. Life is meant to be joyful and abundant and you are not an exception.
I hope this has been of help and that your heart will find some ease soon.
With Love,
Ann-Sofie

Cat and a dog getting along? I’ve seen that before but how about a cat washing a rat lovingly rather than eating it? See it for yourself… Another proof of Universal love!

I am so extremely happy… life is such a bliss and so good to me! Finally, after much dreaming, visualising and prayers we have got our dream-home. It still surprises me when we attract exactly what we asked for initially. The Law of Attraction is mind-blowing yet it never fails. It is amazing, almost unbelievable how precisely it works.
So this is how we did it: Before viewing flats here in Singapore I made a dream-home mind map including nothing less than twelve requirements. I included everything from “Homely & cosy” and “modern” to “balcony” and “within budget”. It mind sound easy to some but finding a modern and stylish flat with a balcony is a rare luck if on a budget here in Singapore, rents are double up to London prices that are already expensive. But we actually managed to lower the rent with 20% compared to previous tenant. Plus it has a very beautiful water pond and a small garden on the balcony which I haven’t seen at any other apartments.
The intent of writing down a wish-list or mind map of something you want to attract into your life is extremely powerful. And it is a time-saver. Because if you already have decided what you want and need (whether it is a partner, house, job or anything else) there is no time for confusion, you won’t consider agreeing on less. What you’ve asked for will be presented to you and everything else will not be attractive enough. Basically it keeps you focused on your inner-most desire.
Secondly we stayed positive. I tend to get a bit nervous and restless when I am awaiting an answer, in this case we had to wait two days to receive the acceptance of our offer (that was way under their asking price and other people could possibly offer higher). When this nervousness appears I always focus on the positive affirmations “All is well” and “My wishes will be granted” which help to switch my consciousness. It is extremely important to stay positive after you’ve asked for something. In this case we started to look for furniture, wrote a shopping list and drew the floor plan with furniture. It all helped to keep us in a relaxed, receiving mode.
Life becomes so much easier and more fluent when you work with the Law of Attraction that when you know this secret to abundance there is no going back. Do you dare to ask the Universe to deliver your dreams?
With Love and wishes for prosperity and abundance,
Ann-Sofie
I found this beautiful, simple yet powerful meditation and would love to share it with you. All my thanks go to Cynthia and Bob who posted this at their blog “Ask the Council“. Since this is a channeled answer to a specific question I have changed the wording slightly to make it more general. If you feel uncomfortable with the name “spirit” or “God” then change it to Universe, Higher Self or Inner Knowing. You need to feel comfortable to be able to open up so do what ever works best for you.
Surrounded By a Beautiful Golden Light
Find time to do a couple of minutes of deep breathing then practice the following technique to increase spiritual awareness. The deep breathing is intended to shift the focus of awareness from what’s going outside to what’s going on internally. “The easiest we see for you—and what is needed right now for many people—is a connection to spirit. And so every day, if only for 10 minutes, we ask you to surround yourself in a beautiful golden light. And feel this light caressing your skin, on your face, on your arms, around your shoulders as if you are being held—being held by angels if that is pleasant—or that God has said: ‘I am here. I have never left you. Feel my arms around you.’ We see this is needed, and very, very easy to do. “ And think the thought that your heart is opening—it is softening. This will bring wonderful people into your life. Only you can let it in.
With Love,
Ann-Sofie
