TURNING POINTS, EPIPHANIES & THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

LIFE Wisdom with Ed Langan (Jan, 2019)

A turning point can be an epiphany. When you have an epiphany at a seminar called The Turning Point, that’s the law of attraction at work.

You usually don’t see a turning point coming, but I did. My wife and I went to a seminar called The Turning Point, and it was, but not in the way we expected it to be. This was the first of two epiphanies that I had on my spiritual path that led to changes in my life and altered the course that I was taking.

First, let me introduce myself. My name is Ed Langan. I am a psychic channel, master life coach, law of attraction expert, and spiritual teacher. Other than that I’m just a regular dude.

I am the author of Creating With The Law of Attraction: 10 Principles That Will Change Your Life. This is my first column for Star Nation, and I would like to tell you about how I started on the path to becoming a law of attraction expert and a spiritual teacher.

In 2004 my wife Marj and I were starting to learn about real estate. We were sure this was our ticket. We were learning about short sales, flipping houses, foreclosures and my favorite, FSBO’s (fizz bows, I like the sound) which stands for For Sale By Owner. We were studying videos, CDs, and manuals, learning everything we could. As part of our training we were going to the Turning Point Seminar which was created by Marshall Sylver. Marshall is a very charismatic and successful hypnotist and entrepreneur.

The workshop was in Las Vegas, and we were able to spend a magical day at the Venetian Hotel before the workshop began. We went to the Guggenheim Museum branch that is right off the lobby. Then we wanted to see the “Italy” that they have recreated in the hotel. We had a wonderful gondola ride where a handsome young man sang a love song to Marj in Italian as he paddled us through the canal. Later we had dinner in St. Mark’s Square as the simulated sunset across the ceiling. Even though it wasn’t real, it was cool. There were minstrels, jugglers, actors and a couple of weddings going on all around us. The atmosphere was fun and festive, and we had a great time. We were having fun, and when you’re feeling good you are in alignment (allowing), and that’s when things begin to manifest.

What is an epiphany? It’s an aha moment; a flash of inspiration. It’s alignment with your soul, inner-being, higher self. There is a strong flash of energy, an eagerness, an excitement, a knowing deep inside that this is the right thing.

The first day of the Turning Point Seminar was very interesting. We were hypnotized, and luckily, we were not asked to cluck like chickens. We learned about focusing, goal setting and other mindful techniques. There were definitely some paradigm shifts during the day. I remember being in the hotel that night and feeling like something was shifting. I still had no idea what was going to happen.

The next morning we were back at the seminar and Marshall called me up on stage with him.

We started talking, and right in the middle of it he said to me “You are in the wrong profession,” and I knew at that moment he was right. He said “You are a speaker. You should be speaking, teaching workshops and giving speeches.”

What is an epiphany? It is an ah-ha moment. It’s a flash of inspiration. But what is it really? It’s alignment with your soul, inner-being, higher self—choose whatever words work for you. You can tell that it’s alignment by the way it feels. There is a strong flash of energy, an eagerness, an excitement, a knowing deep inside that this is the right thing.

As Marshall was talking to me, I had an epiphany. I had that flash of inspiration and the energy burst that comes with it. I knew he was right. And right then and there he had me tell Marj from the stage that I did not want to do this real estate business. That I knew it was not my calling. I knew it was a means to an end, and an attempt to make money. Doing something for the simple reason of making money is a very weak energy to put out into the universe and usually does not work.

The law of attraction was the engine of life experience. This was the paradigm shift that started my passion for wanting to teach. This was my first epiphany.

I wanted to teach! I wanted to speak! I wanted to teach workshops and change people’s lives for the better. I knew in my heart I wanted to teach the law of attraction.

On the cover of my brochure are my words, “We believe everybody deserves to know that they create their own reality.” This was the moment that birthed that knowing. I knew that I was creating my own reality and that’s what I wanted everyone to know! I already had a very good understanding about the law of attraction because we had been studying it for quite a while. I was deeply ensconced in the teachings of Abraham from Jerry and Esther Hicks. I had read As a Man Thinketh, Think and Grow Rich, The Power of Positive Thinking and many other books on this subject. This is what made my heart sing and this is what I wanted to teach.

This was a big turning point in my experience. At the seminar, we broke 3/4 inch boards with our bare hands and ate fire (yes, fireand I have the picture to prove it), but thanks to Marshall Sylver’s words, I was coming home with a new eagerness and a new energy.

I immediately started thinking about how to create a law of attraction workshop: how to create it in a way that people would understand that they were creating their life, whether they realized it or not. They were creating their life by default or on purpose. Either way, the law of attraction was the engine of their life experience. This was the paradigm shift that started my passion for wanting to teach. This was my first epiphany.

The second part of my story is when I went to Women of Wisdom in Easton Massachusetts to talk to the owner Katie about teaching my law of attraction workshop there. And that was the start of a second epiphany that continued to change my life. But we’ll save that for the next column. ✦
