Spoon Bending Lab Resources

Getting out of my head is a great way to bend the spoons. Otherwise, we tend to overthink the outcome.

When it came to spoon bending the very first LightNet spoon bending I did was with my son, Evan, on April 9th, 2023, a week after he turned nine. At the time, I barely knew what spoon bending was, only that it had some connection to spirituality. Intrigued, I thought it would be something fun for Evan and me to try together. So, we sat in front of the computer with a couple of spoons from the kitchen, ready to see what this was all about. Honestly, I hadn't given it much thought beforehand; I just signed up for it because it was something new and interesting. Reflecting on the experience, it reminded me of those rare times I've gone to a theater to watch a movie without knowing anything about it. When you walk in without expectations, the experience can turn out to be unexpectedly amazing. That's what spoon bending was for me. I went into it without any preconceived notions or specific outcomes in mind, which I believe is crucial. By not having any expectations, I was able to fully ...

After my initial experience with spoon bending, I found myself practicing it regularly, sometimes randomly deciding on a night to bend some spoons. I've gone through about nine or ten bags of silverware because I enjoy practicing on my own, outside of the spoon bending parties hosted by Zenka. However, I realized that doing it repeatedly led me to build up expectations about the results. I started thinking the bends needed to be in cooler shapes or more impressive each time. This shift in mindset made me recognize the importance of giving myself a break. I understood that having a specific outcome in mind can create a mental block, not just in spoon bending but in life overall. Wanting something too intensely can hinder the natural flow and prevent it from happening. By staying relaxed and open, without rigid expectations, I found that I could better allow things to unfold naturally.

Attending a Spoon Bending party creates the setting for success.

It's essential to drop the need for a specific outcome because that need often translates into trying to force something. When you force things, you're essentially pushing against the natural flow. Instead, it's better to drop into a space of detachment from the outcome. For instance, some people intensely practice out-of-body experiences and become fixated on achieving them. My son began having spontaneous experiences at a young age, which initially scared both him and me. When he started describing vibrations, I panicked, thinking something drastic was happening. My frantic research led me to LightNet, where I realized my son was just deeply connected in ways I hadn't understood. 2023 was a whirlwind for me as I tried to protect my son from what I initially perceived as threats. Eventually, I understood that his experiences were natural and significant. This journey taught me the value of detachment. When you fixate on a specific goal, you create mental blocks. True detachment mea...

It all started for me with a meditation practice led by Zenka, which involved using the white light method. This technique uses your mind to visualize and feel a powerful energy, such as love or a bright, luminescent white light, either above your head, at your crown, or flowing through your body. This visualization was the method I used, and it was the same method my son used. The results were almost immediate for both of us. I believe this success was partly because I had no preconceived notions about what to expect. Moreover, my son was right beside me, and his excitement mirrored mine. Even though neither of us knew what to expect, we were both enthusiastic about the experience. This childlike excitement added to the overall success. The combination of not having any preconceived ideas and approaching the practice with genuine excitement made the experience both fun and spiritually fulfilling.

If you've ever attended a spoon bending class with lightNet you'll know that this isn't a joke, even if its funny, causing chaos is one of the most efficient ways I've noticed on being able to get myself out of my head. Jumping around in a group while we scream in excitement really works, and here's some examples of chaos you could cause during a spoon bending party hosted by you or friends: - Put on loud music you CAN'T HELP but dance to! - Congratulate each other pre-maturely on bending their spoons! Do this exuberantly while jumping up and down. - Start saying silly stuff out loud and try to get other members of your party to laugh. Etc! I'm sure you can come up with other ways. But these will do for now!

Belief in the FACT that it's going to happen really helps! Something you can do to help this belif, if doubts are coming in is to auditorily override the thought by affirming out loud that "You can bend the spoon!" - Or even better "I Have Ben't The Spoon!!!"

Anytime we host a spoon bending party on LightNet we always start the group off with a moment to drop in and set the tone with a meditation. There's no wrong way to do this so long as you feel - by the end of it, more connected to your version of source god and the etheric unlimited power of the cosmos. My meditation when I come up to bat sounds something like this. "Let's begin by opening our chakras, root to crown-" Pause a moment or guide through saying each chakra. "Now lets come into alignment with the cosmic center galactic sun, feeling the beams of diamond light energy channel through our crown and down through to our root." Pausing to feel that energy. "Let this beam pulse through your root into the earth all the way to earth's core, where it anchors this energy and comes back up through your being." Pause to feel. "Now lets feel this energy begin to collect and swell in our heart chakra." Pause one last time. "and finally, let channel all this energy through our arm (the one holding your spoon out in front of you) and focus it into the point we'll be bending today" finishing off with our "BEND BEND BEND, LET IT GO" Chant! And there you have it!

When choosing utensils to bend. It is a good idea to ask them separately if it will bend for me today. Choose the one that says YES!

Upon connecting to my higher self, releasing doubt, I clear my mind, and become present to the impeccable intention of bending a spoon. While bending a spoon, I felt and recognized the ripple effect I produced with others in the process. Susan Ami - www.infinitelifedesigns.io

I'm someone who's able to let go of circumstances while being in the moment, so when Zenka Caro first introduced me to spoon bending and guided us through the process of elevating our excitement in order to get out of our heads, my playful, childlike nature was 100% on board with that idea. I enjoy using activities to divert my attention from the mundaneness of everyday life, and being that this was a spoon bending "party" I found it very easy to play along and enjoy myself without placing complicated expectations on the results.
