NLP
During the 2 years of doing NLP courses, first Practioner, later Coach, one excersice was about manifesting your vision. Later while doing my Dr. Joe Dispenza retreat I practiced this even more.
I did a lot of meditations preparing myself for my trip. Manifesting how safe, lucky and happy I felt in my future travelling. Interesting how it works and what has happened so far.
Pounamu
I manifested feeling blessed having Pounamu. Stones, pieces of wood…I have always worshipped the natural materials as the real treasures of life.
Once being in New Zealand, I learned that ideally one doesn’t buy Pounamu for oneself. It should be given to you with a personal blessing. And guess what…. totally out of the blue, Amanda surprised me with the most precious gift of Pounamu while say goodbye in Tauranga.
Kiwi
Another wish I had was spotting a Kiwi while hiking in the forest. One early morning in Fox Glacier during a mystical walk I focused strongly about how it would feel like.
About an hour later or so, something very special caught my attention. There was this tree trunk…. cut…. to let people continue the path. The image I got to see, was without any doubt a perfect picture of the Kiwi Bird! I felt incredibly blessed and could hardly believe my luck!
Surprise
Lovely little details of attention make me happy. I guess that’s what life is all about by the end of the day.
Completely unexpected my desire of such a moment came true. I was given the most wonderful bunch of red roses. Unfortunately I never got to hold them in my hands…. as I had cancelled the hostel where they were left behind – last minute.
I felt appreciated and happy when I got the message with picture though. An invitation for a SPA-day came along with it. What a wonderful gesture and intention to giving me a treat.
Something for free
Getting something for free, has always giving me a great feeling of “being special”. Manifesting this lucky feeling is great!
One day after chatting along with a handsome Indian guy at a food truck, he called me back when I was just about to leave. He handed me over a brown paper bag with a delicious treat. Just because….. he could!
Coromandel Península
This part of New Zealand got my interest. But there was no way to get there with the Intercity Bus. I was thinking of hiring a bike… or any other way to get there.
The next morning on the Ferry from Pine Harbour to Auckland to get my bus…. guess what? I happened to meet a young guy from the Stares who offered me a Bike with a Trailer for only 150 Dollars!
Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for. It came too early, to quick… I wasn’t ready yet.
That same evening at Amanda’s, I got a second chance, as her partner was going the next morning by car to yhe Coromandel Península. WOW!
Learning something New
One of my goals is to learn something new in each country I will be visiting. Not always so easy, as I seem to be too old for a working permit most of the time.
While looking for ways to get to Corolmandel Peninsula and advert caught my sight. Some guys were looking for s person to help them building a tiny house. That sounded like me!
After some texting back and forth I got the job. Again, completely unexpected and honestly too early so I politely declined. But how lucky I felt by being chosen!
A month later I finally got a second chance and learned how to make baskets from Flax!
You’re still sceptical….?
