Financial Healing - The Monopoly Method :)

[illusions]

Hi Everyone

I'm finally getting 'round to writing this!

I'm going to share in this post how a combination of playing Monopoly and Paths, has helped me to change a life-long pattern of financial struggle.

I'll also post where you can download the Monopoly game for free, and would love to hear from others who try this method.

Naturally, because we each have a Unique physical experience, this may not work for everyone, and it may not work exactly the same for others, but in sharing my experience, hopefully it will work for some of you, and give ideas to others...

A Brief Background:
For those who don't know my experience so far (it's a very long story, so I'll just give you a brief idea):
* Raised with a very strong work ethic, and a lOt of financial struggle
* After a lifetime of financial drama, I found "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", which comletely turned around my attitude and (conscious) beliefs about money.
* Since then (about 8 years ago) have tried EVerything!! A WIDE variety of work, business and self development. Have done EXACTLY what others have done, yet where they succeeded, I failed. For an explaination of why, read this post: http://www.energeticforum.com/person...-not-work.html
* Have used a Wide variety of tools to clear old subconscious programming about money (consciously my beliefs, attitude and thoughts are exactly like those of the wealthy - it's the ingrained subconscious beliefs that have been the problem.
* Any money owed to me was usually delayed (and I mean by MONTHS some times) - the most bizaar things used to happen to keep money from me! Banks made errors that no-one else experiences, documents got lost in fires, timing seemed to be planned so that I would always be in a position of stress and struggle about finances no matter what I did.

That's the background in brief.

Now...
For the past few months, I've been as far from my previous financial struggle as a smoke signal is from a cell phone call! lol. I've gone from having minus money, to having a "buffer" that I never use!!!! Wow!!!! No more delays - money arrives bang on time, and sometimes even early. I seem to consistantly receive more than I'm expecting as well!

I'm not doing any different work. Still doing the same as before. The only things I've done differently, I'm going to share here.

I started a new Paths theatre aimed specifically at my Money Issues, and I use it EVERY DAY while playing Monopoly on my PC!!! This may sound absurd, but stay with me - it will make sense once I explain it in detail.

The modules I'm using (reccomended by Paths Customer Service - Thanks guys!! ) are:

* Trauma Release (I think this is a key one! And I'd not have thought of it myself, relating to money!)
* Self Esteem (Vital to ALL issues)
* Mindset for Money (Self Explanatory lol)
* Business Productivity and Creativity

The Monopoly game I'm playing is called "Monopoly Deluxe" and I received the disk from a friend who had received it free in a Sunday Newspaper. I did a bit of a search and found that you can download it from either of the following links:

Monopoly Deluxe Freeware*-*Play Online Flash Games

Miniclip Online Games - Monopoly Deluxe

In the next post I'll go into why and how I believe playing Monopoly on my PC while listening to Paths, has made such a difference....

Why Monopoly?

Just after I started with my new modules aimed at my money issues, I received the Monopoly disk through the post - it was a gift for my son.

That day I had so much I felt I "should" do, and yet I kept feeling this Overwhelming urge to play my son's Monopoly game!!

Knowing that the only thing I "should" do, is what feels good, I decided to allow myself to follow those instincts.

I loaded the game onto my PC (with my son's permission of course ), and started playing it.

Here are the things I began to notice as I played:

* I had a run of "bad luck" and I felt frustrated and that it was "unfair" that I kept landing on "Go to Jail", "Income Tax", and my opponent's properties. (It was extreme - for several rounds I couldn't buy a property, while the computer was enjoying a shopping spree" lol)

* Later, when the computer had some "bad luck" and landed on "Go to Jail" three times in a row, I caught myself feeling sorry for it! (I was feeling sorry for a computer!!)

* Whenever I ran out of cash and landed on a property where I had to pay rent, I felt a tangible loss. I felt "poor", I felt down as I mortgaged properties or sold houses in order to pay the debt. "Scraping together barely enough", a feeling of lack and loss. "It was a very specific feeling - one I recognised from "real life".

* When the computer ran out of cash and landed on a property where it had to pay rent, it AUTOMATICALLY (and obviously unemotionally) mortgaged the appropriate properties in order to pay the debt. Then, when it received enough cash later, it unmortgaged them.

* I was taking the entire game Extremely personally!!!

For a long time I've believed that the way we play games says a lot about the way we live life.

While I played Monopoly that day (I played for about 4 hours in a row), I was accutely aware of the connection between the way I was playing that game, and the way I play the game of life...

I realised that any changes I made to my attitude and perception in the game of Monopoly, would carry over into my life.

I started to realise that my emotional response was an automatic reaction, and started checking it. I began to take a different perspective - I began to see it as just a game (duh! lol) with no meaning behind the dice rolls - no such thing as luck, and the rolls are impartial. I began to distance myself from it a bit and look at the whole thing more strategically - no emotion. I began to distance my emotions from the game, and whatever the roll was, I treated it as a chess game - strategy not luck.

As I played the Monopoly game in this way, I also noticed I started winning more - not because I was any "luckier" but because I was thinking strategically. So I was seeing opportunities and making strategic decisions that I KNOW I'd never have seen if I'd been feeling emotional!

I began making the most of the Trading option - something I'd never really used much before. I've now become quite clever with my trading. lol (which is a reflection of the changes that are happening inside me!)

Since then, I've spent half an hour each morning, playing Monopoly on my computer, while listening to my Paths (which I'll explain in the next post).

I've noticed an increase in the feeeeeeeeeeling of Accumulating money. I've noticed a completely new experience - previously my beliefs in abundance were Conscious. Now they are through to my core!

The feeeeling of Accumulating money is reflected in my (for the first time in my Life!!!) having a constant buffer, which is always there should I need it. It's not a huge amount, but I've never had such a thing at all before!

I'm no expert, but I'm sure that listening to these Paths modules, while playing Monopoly the way I have been - every day - has rearranged Neuro-pathways at Speed, which may have taken much longer otherwise.

And through those changes.... outside circumstances are reflecting back to me, the same. No more delays, no more bank errors, no more missing payments, no more dramas. And I know it will continue to get better and better.

Key points I think make a difference:

* Playing the simple version of Monopoly (Monopoly Deluxe - despite the name - is the simple, normal version of Monopoly) is, I believe, very important because it enables the focus to remain on the basics.

* Playing against the computer, rather than live players makes it much easier to get over any guilt feelings or worries that may come up with live players. I've played live online as well, but have stopped that for a while until I feel I'm ready.

* I believe it needs to be done EVERY day - I'm certain the repetition of Every day is key.

* I don't know if it would work without the Paths modules because of course, I'd started using them before, so I would reccomend going with what feeeels good to you. The set of modules I've mentioned have been perfect for me, and I've found that the actual process of playing the game while listening to the modules on headphones (turn off the sound in the game by the way, if you do this. ) is what seems to have worked for me.

Looking forward to hearing your views and experiences on this.

Listening to PATHS While Playing Monopoly.

The instructions in the Paths modules are in both the Visual and the Audio, so if you have Stereo Headphones, you can just listen to your modules.

Although you only need to watch Paths once a week, I've found that for myself, if I'm using only the Audio, I prefer to do it every day.

I make myself a cup of tea, open a new window on my computer, and log onto my Paths account, open the Monopoly game, and put on my headphones with the volume up full, click "Click Here to Begin" for my Paths modules, and I usually watch a little bit of the Visual, and then play Monopoly while Paths delivers the appropriate instructions to my Subconscious

I have a couple of theatres, so when one is over, I just log onto the next and carry on playing Monopoly. When all the theatres are finished, I save my Monopoly game and do the same the next day.

I would reccomend that when first starting, you continue to play Monopoly for as long as you can. Play, play, plaaaay until you can't anymore! Then you can take it down to just half an hour or so each day.

Remember, playing is not wasted time - doing it with awareness like this, you're restructuring your mind!

Can't wait to hear how it goes for you.

Whoaaa! That is such an awesome transformation in your life! Untill today I was on Mindset for Money, and Productivity, and today had added for me the self esteem... When I read your post, I knew I had to have the swap out my skin repair (I can buy it back next week when I add back my healthy eating module to my other account) for the Trauma Free. That module had never really occurred to me untill I read what modules you are on.

I will then download the monopoly game, because I am so often panicked about money... even if I have some in my bank account!

Thank you for sharing this with me... I am looking forward to trying this out!

Hi SallyJane

Cool!! I'm so interested to hear your experience of this. So far, I don't know of anyone else who's using Monopoly in this way, so I'm really keen to hear how it works for others

Interesting

Odille,
This is very interesting what I am learning from this! Like you at first I noticed several patterns that had to do with emotions and the money. For one the idea that I would start to panick if my money got low, and start to really hold on tight to it. Then I noticed because of that I did not make the investments I needed to make. I am starting to see strategies and how or what I need to do to win, but I am still making fatal mistakes (irrational ones).

A real Ahah! Moment was this morning when my daughter was playing the game and she was getting upset because she owned all but four of the properties, and yet the computer was winning??? No matter what she did she would get more and more broke and then she said it "The more money he pays to me and the bank the more money he gets... It seems? How could this be?" Hmmmm... even in the game of monopoly played on a computer... the rules of Quantum Physics come into play! It is not what you have, or how much you have, but how you view it and what you think or put into the field that wins the game! Amazing! The less money my daughter had the more frustrated she would get and then the more she would loose, even though logically it should be impossible for her to loose!

So in an effort to get her to see what I was starting to formulate as a hypothesis I started asking her questions... The answer she came up with was that allowing our emotional ties to money determine how much of it we have! Okay this came out of the mouth of a 14 year old girl! Yeahhhhooooo! Watch out world her she comes!

This whole things just sends chills down my spine... It is just sooo exciting! I do need to to figure out how to get my modules to replay automatically, cause my version of the game does not let me go easily between it and Windows?

So last night, all night long I was living in a monopoly game as I slept... LOL! This is a powerful transformative process that I would recommend to anyone.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sallyjane, that's FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, it's so Exciting to hear that it's working for someone else as well!! Thank you SO much for taking the time to share it all here!!

I really believe it's a great way to highlight very specific beliefs and patterns that we may otherwise be unconscious of. And as you change them in the way you play the game, I'm certain you'll notice changes in your real-life financial experiences as well, like I have.

Along with just the awareness of the patterns, and therefore being able to change them, I really believe that as we play, new neuro-pathways are being formed, as we change the way we play - especially playing while listening to Paths.

Is there not an option in the game, to minimise the screen when you need to refresh your Paths? If not, and if you can't put it "restore down", you can try pressing the key on your keyboard that has the picture of the Microsoft logo (the flag) - and that should minimise the game screen for you so you can access your Paths window.

How Exciting this is!! And Wonderful that your daughter is playing as well, and how Amazing her insight at only 14 years old!

Do keep us updated.

This was sooo amazing!

Okay, as I have been playing I have noticed the tendency to want to quit when the game was not going in my favor! IE the computer had bought a bunch of hotels and I was mortgaging just to hang on!

So today, I started playing, and again I was not landing on enough of the same properties to be able to build, and he had the whole bottom line just past go bought and hotels put on it. I was convinced I could not win this game and wanted to quit. The EGO was telling me this is a waste of time you can't win this game!

I kept playing and had to mortgage a couple of properties and then landed on a full set and was able to put hotels on alll three... Then I went around a couple more times landing in between all his hotels and paying him nothing, and bought another corner of the board and added a few houses whos rents were bigger than his hotel rents, and then one more time around had hotes on them! Now he has maybe a 1000 dollars more than me, but my properties are worth more than his, and we just keep going around and around and around! Yea I pay rent on his hotels, but nothing compared to his rent on my hotels! I realized a few minutes ago, that I won the game this time, because I silenced the ego mind chatter that I could not do this game! I told my daughter that this is the first time that I have been able to play this way and actually own hotels and give the other players a run for their money!

I believe I have silenced the brain on more than just the monopoly game!!! This is very exciting, and I am looking forward to the transformation in my life! What a great time well spent for me, and I would recommend more people try this!!!

Okay this is funny!

So the game I was telling you about above... Right after I posted that the entire game turned around and suddenly I went from 1000 dollars down to having 14,000 + and the computer having around 2000 +-! And I wanted to quit! I battle the ego mind and I not only won the battle and stuck out the game, but I won the game it said I could not win! OH YEA! I am feeling victorious today!!! What a battle that was of the ego mind and shutting it up to actually stick out a game and win it for the first time in my lifetime!!!

That's SO Exciting to hear, Sallyjane!!

Zartgirl:

YES!! That's exactly what I noticed about myself! If it looked like I was going to loose, I'd start again. Once I became aware of this, I chose to continue just like the computer does - and it was fascinating how often I could turn the game around! Again, that translates brilliantly into real life!

WELL DONE YOU, for doing so well with it!!!

Keep us updated.
