The Power of Manifesting

What is manifesting?

man·​i·​fes·​ting

By definition it means, to show something clearly, through signs or actions.

Calm by the sea

We’ve all heard of the Law of Attraction, essentially, whatever you want, the Law of Attraction can help you achieve.

The Law of Attraction doesn’t work by mysteriously “altering” the universe.

No matter how much pseudo-science you read, there’s zero quantum physics involved, there is no magical button to make it happen.

Instead, the Law of Attraction works by changing what’s on the inside – which in turn changes your experience of the world.

In short: Your intention sets your direction.

When you start to truly understand how all of this works, this manifesting process suddenly becomes a huge force for making positive change in your life.

Manifesting is cultivating the experience of what it is that you want to feel — and then living and believing in that experience so that you can allow it to come into form.

You can practice manifesting to attract whatever you want, whether that’s a successful business, good health, a relationship or even a material object.

Sometimes we manifest beyond the realms of what is possible. So, when manifesting, it’s important to stay open to possibilities that are beyond what you think you need. When you align with the energy of the Universe, there are no limits to what you can attract.

Do’s & Don’ts:

Don't: Expect exactly what you want to just drop in your lap

You can’t expect things to just jump into your lap. Vision boards and affirmations are great because they offer clarity and visualisation. Look at them daily and send out those vibrations into the universe.

Do: Trust that the Universe has a plan better than yours

Instead of focusing on that specific goal of what you fee link you need or want; for example, having bought a house at a certain time and date. Focus on what you currently have, and what is thriving in your life. Move your thoughts away from “I’m left out” “I am in a different stage to my friends” Switch your thoughts to “I have a great life, a successful career, and am thriving in my current state. I rent a flat that covers me, that houses me and share it with my partner who loves me and comforts me. I have an opportunity to get grounded, and have the opportunity to work together, that I would like to put my attention and love into.”

So, start to think what you have thriving in your life, and release and let go of that outcome to get somewhere, and see that you are very happy right here. Let go of times and outcomes and focus on what is working. It is powerful and it works!

Don't: Try to “make it happen”

Trying to control and force things to happen is a deeply ingrained habit for many of us.

Even if you don’t really identify as a control freak (and I’ll be honest: I do), there are some subtle ways that we try to control.

If you:

• Sweat the small stuff,

• Ask a ton of people for their opinions before doing something, or

• Avoid dealing with things…

…Then it’s likely you’re secretly trying to control your life.

Remember, the Universe has a plan far better than our own. You can stop controlling and start receiving by tapping into that guidance.

Do: Make manifesting part of your daily life

Manifesting is something we do continuously.

Instead of saving your manifesting practices for “special” places and times, infuse them into your daily life.

• Commit to meditating every morning, even if that means sitting in stillness for a couple of minutes and tuning in with your breath.

• Journal your thoughts each day, to document how you feel.

Don't: Save your manifesting practices for one special time and place

Many people think of manifesting as something they do only while in their reflection part of their day. They spend some amount of time in that space meditating, journaling and doing whatever else helps them get aligned, feel good and connect to spirit. And then they get up, go about their day and leave their spiritual practices behind.

When you compartmentalise your spiritual practices like this, you’re cutting off the flow of inspiration.

Parting thought...

Manifesting is the creative process of aligning with the energy of the Universe. Manifesting isn’t about getting; it’s about becoming.

The more you let go, the more you become a match for what you desire.
