Being Perfectly Imperfect: Recent Episodes
SELINA HANLEY
A few weeks ago now I received a council tax letter stating I have not paid my council tax bill for a property I have never lived in. This is one of 3 recordings
The other reasons associated with domestic bullying and abuse. That should be spoke about, but never get mentioned.
It is 2.21 in the morning and I have been woken by one of my neighbors scraping his chair along the floor. And turning there lights on and off.
After moving out of homeless accommodation and finally getting my own place. I thought it would be the beginning of a new exciting journey. A fresh start on my pursuit of happiness. Was I wrong. 11 months after me getting the keys I started to notice a substance... Fast forward 19 months of letter writing and complaining. Nothing has happened. People have been entering my home while I am out and moving things as a way of letting me no they have been. Ripping up my personal things. This is my story.
It has been two years since my last pod post. Here's why. Life simply got in the way. A lot has happened in the world, not just in mine but in so many other people's also. Here is a catch up on the goings on....

I was homelessness for almost 3 years, hidden homeless and I never thought it would or could happen to me.
1000βs of vulnerable adults volunteer each year for charities. Thousands of pounds gets pumped into the sector for peer to peer support, have vulnerable adults support their peers. The charities only cover travel and food provision for that day, when really they should be offering better basic needs support, which would help with the well being of the vulnerable adult. I ask central and local government to look at this problem.
I came to the realisation how stressed I was becoming while in lockdown 5 months I have been in this flat and it is starting to show.
This week we looked at our personal imagines and how we wanted to be seen. It was tuff for me to hear that I have to look at how I conduct myself.
This week we looked at tone and telling our stories. My story was great but the deliverance was not the best, one of my peer supporters agreed to help me work on mine.
This week I started my journey to parliament with a six week course on political pathways. I can not tell you how excited I am about being on this amazing journey. Thank you for listening xx
Day 4 ππ°π
DAY 4 TASK Make a list of people whom you consider to be prosperous in your family or environment. These are people you personally know and have access to. They have achieved their goals in life or in part, they are happy or preceived by you to be happy.
Important π€ we are not only talking about financial prosperity, the obligatory component π is that this person is experiencing joy and happiness.
These people can also be from your previous list. How many people does not matter even two is enough.
Please remember the more attention reflection and feelings you give to these tasks, the greater the return.

Day 2
It is fabulous to see everyone from all round the world connecting and joining in. Well done everyone for committing to this 21 day daily practice. To maintain the energy and flow if you find it to challenging, please remove yourself, no judgement ... you do have 24 to 36 hrs for each day.
If / when you find a task difficult, its because of a block an obstacle in your mind on the path towards attaining abubdance Be aware of this and STICK with it... meditation helps and you can also just be with the feeling breathing into it and not going into the story of it.
Task day 2
Write all your debts in your notebook. Debt in your bank accounts, credit cards, loans, to individuals, .... all your debts of any kind. There is No need to record the amount only to whom and for what.
After that make a list of all your monthly payments. Again no numbers just the items. For example renting an apartment or mortgage, electricity, water, gas, municipal tax, gym petrol etc. Everything you pay on a monthly basis should be recorded, i.e all monthly expenses constant and changing. This can be added to as you remember things.
Write this phrase in your notebook ... you can always come back to these and repeat at anytime
π I create my personal abundance from an infinite source π
You can also say it during the meditation or in front of a mirror.

Day 0
RULES OF THE GROUP
A good idea is to have a book or journal to dedicate solely to this practice
The Meditation is for 21 days starting Monday 13th Jan.
After I've sent you the daily task you will have 24 to 36 hours to complete it... as we are in different time zones .. I will send out the night before so that you have the time to complete it
If a task requires writing use pen and paper... not a computer..
Before starting the task come to a calm state, slow deep breathing ... you can complete the task after the Deepak Chopras meditations.
Please send messages and questions in private No need to leave comments in group as there are so many of us and it will be hard to follow.
Be fully focused on your daily task, allocate time and space.
If you can not participate or keep the rhythm of the program please remove yourself from the group. It's important for us to maintain the flow so that the energy input into this process does not dissipate.
After completing the daily task, please write the completion statement e.g. day 1 done There may be days when I ask you to leave other comments.
π§‘𧑠this is Deepak Chopra's program I am only a conductor of information and intentions The tasks are shared exactly as provided by the program .... The goal is to get to know yourself better, clarify / change beliefs and attitudes.
Everyday there will be a published task, an audio file with an explanation, a Deepak Chopra meditation and affirmation of the day.
I recommend turning off notifications from this group so that you are not disturbed.
This process is an opportunity to learn how to allocate time for yourself and your development every day Have fun, enjoy and good luck
Day 0 TODAY'S phase
𧑠Starting today, I constantly attract abundance with my thoughts 𧑠Write it in your book and repeat throughout the day Mahatma Gandhi taught us to remember our thoughts generate words, words generate actions, actions generate habits, habits generate character and character breeds destiny
If you have read the rules and agree to follow them Write in comments day 0 done so that we know we all on the same wavelength... Monday 6th will be day 1
That's all for today ... so excited to be on this journey and setting intentions for the next decade
