Have you ever stopped and looked at your life and felt dissatisfied? Well, more likely, most of us have come to this point.
There will be days when you look at everything that you have and find that they are lacking. Perhaps what you need is just a little nudge towards Manifestation.
You can make things happen. You just need to find out how.
What Is Manifestation?
But what is Manifestation about?
Manifestation is being able to call on the laws of attraction to make your wishes come true.
You have probably heard about the Laws of Attraction. Well, the basic rule is that you should focus on the things that you want in life. Like begets like.
By keeping our minds focused on what we want, we let these thoughts run at the same frequency as our beliefs. We make these desires course through the same currents as our own present realities. So, it makes it easier for us to ask the Universe to make them real.
What are its Origins?
Manifestation may sound like a new idea, but it had its beginnings in the 19th century. During those days, the New Thought tradition came to the fore.
What is this era about? It was a time when concepts such as Manifestation became popular. One of the most famous names associated with the idea was Helena Blavatsky. Her spiritual instruction was known in several countries.
Her book, The Secret Doctrine, follows religious beliefs. Later on, some of its concepts become part of what we now know as The Law of Attraction. She believed that what we know about ourselves will ultimately define what we will become.
Meanwhile, Thomas Troward believed that the mind is the center of “divine operations.”
In the 20th century, Blavatsky’s and Troward’s concepts influenced other practitioners. They expanded on these concepts, creating unique spins. They even used their own lives as examples that proved manifestation.
What are the Different Manifestation Techniques?
You don’t have to manifest your dreams the same way your friend does. There are several types of Manifestation techniques. You just have to pick the one that you find the most comfortable and the easiest to follow.
Show your Gratitude
When you show gratitude to the Universe for the blessings you have received, you acknowledge that something good is happening. So keep the good fortune going by being grateful. There are many ways in which this can be expressed.
Sleep on it
Yes, literally sleep on it. First, write your wishes on pieces of paper. Then, place those pieces under your pillow and sleep on them.
Of course, it is not just about the physical act of sleeping on them. You must also try to keep those wishes in your thoughts. Hopefully, you will even dream about them.
Your subconscious mind may also explore all that you associate with your wishes and dreams.
Extend your Help
The more you extend your help to the Universe, the more it will give back to you. This definitely has a religious aspect to it.
People believe that karma affects our lives. You get what you deserve, or you reap what you have planted.
Helping out others also helps you create a strong karmic flow. It shows that you are confident that the Universe will assist you when things go rough. So, you don’t mind giving.
Manifestation is all about positive energy. This is energy that you gain through being and doing good.
Drink more Water
This sounds like some great health advice—and it is. Water is life. It nourishes you and fills you.
Moreover, water comes from Nature – from the Universe. So, the more water you drink, the more Universal nourishment you take in.
Scripting
Have you heard of a horror movie where everything the writer puts on paper happens?
The problem with these scenarios is that it often comes with horrific consequences because the writer is greedy or vengeful. Scripting is used to do terrible things to others and to gain something at the expense of others.
Manifestation scripting, however, is all about writing about your dreams.
These are things you wish for that are within the realm of possibility. As you keep on writing them, they become even more real.
You also strive harder and aim higher – towards those dreams. This is when you first stomp on any lingering, limiting belief.
Self-Hypnosis
Before you sleep at night, you can focus on the things that you want to achieve. One way to do this is through bedtime reprogramming. How do you do this, really?
Well, you can focus on the things that you want to happen and let them repeatedly swirl in your head. You can also make use of subliminal tape to help you focus.
Find audio that matches the kind of mental state you want to bring yourself into.
Part of self-hypnosis is envisioning a more powerful self. Focus on that version of you that you want to achieve.
Surround yourself with Positivity
When you surround yourself with positivity, it is not just about the environment.
A peaceful environment can promote a great sense of being, yes, but having positive people in your lives is also part of that.
Positive people help you stay where you want to be and reach for what you want to gain. This is because they know what it feels like to ask the Universe for what they want.
Step outside the box
If you have been longing to achieve something for years, why haven’t you earned it yet? On the other hand, if you have been working hard through all those years, you may need to do something different.
Sometimes, you just need to keep on pushing and trying. However, it is also possible that you need to step outside the box. You may also need to do something different to achieve what you haven’t got yet.
The above are just a few methods that you can follow. Other techniques exist out there. Some of them are related to the ones listed above.
How do you Manifest?
- Do not just go straight to the method. You must first be sure of what you want in life. For example, you may first think that what you need is wealth and fame. That may be true. However, you may not have thought of the details thoroughly enough.
- It is only when you are sure about your goals that you begin asking the Universe for them. You must focus on your desired outcome and forget about any limiting belief you may have about it.
- When you manifest, you hum with positive energy. This vibrational energy is powered by positive thinking. However, it can be dampened by negative thoughts. So, you must strengthen your grip on what you want to happen.
- Of course, you cannot sit back and leave everything to the Universe. You must also make sure you work hard for it. For example, students who want good grades cannot just put everything into dreams and scripting. They must work hard for what they want.
- Then, you must believe in the process. You must focus on what you want and trust that you can achieve that goal. The combination of hard work and positive energy can get you there.
- Keep your vibrational energy high by living your life with good works and great health. Drink more water to maintain yourself as a healthy vessel.
- Finally, make sure you do not resist your own destiny. Sometimes, the only person who seems to regard your dream in disbelief is yourself. It is not just about positive thinking, but about getting from the Universe, you have worked hard to create.
What life areas can be addressed with Manifestation?
Different people focus on various types of dreams. You can make any of these dreams manifest as long as you can imagine how to bridge your current situation to your desired one.
Look at your life right now. What is it you want? What is still lacking, and what needs a boost? What do you deserve? The Universe operates not only on positive thinking, but also on the universal law of fairness.
Here are some of the areas that Manifestation can address:
Love
Do not manifest the love of a certain person. The Universe does not operate that way. It can provide you with the love it knows you deserve. However, it does not manipulate the freedom of others. It lets other people make their own wishes.
So, when you are going through the Manifesting process, do not write the name of a particular person. You do not know what that would really mean. This is where “Be careful what you wish for” applies.
Do not manifest the love of a person you don’t even know that well. Instead, focus on your happiness and getting love from a person who can make you happy.
Dream Job
Many people focus on a dream job instead. But, of course, most people know they can only manifest jobs in their expertise line.
For example, it is impossible to become the President when you have not even finished a related course in governance, economics, and the like. You may also not have been working on any skills that will make you a good one.
Manifesting is not about fairy tales. It is about letting you achieve your dreams through hard work and positive energy. A promotion certainly looks like something achievable.
Notice that a dream job is a better option than wealth. This is because wealth cannot just fall on you. The Universe knows it will make you lazy and greedy. So instead, you must hope for something that will still require you to be at your best.
Success at School
Some of you may still be students. You may manifest academic success. Since you are still earning your knowledge and skills, you can also start your dream job’s manifesting process.
With this more realistic timeframe, you can script your way towards lucrative employment while also doing well at school. While the Universe likes it when you dream big, it also supports you better when your goals are grounded in reality.
Can you Manifest your success over other people? It depends, really.
The Universe will analyze everything as a whole. So who has the most potential? Who is contributing to goodness and hard work? It could be you. It could be someone else. You can only hope for some good showing, based on what you can give. You cannot expect to control other people’s destiny.
Good Health
Much of the vibrational energy you show can be gained from good health. As mentioned, drinking enough water can help you in nourishing yourself with the gifts of the Universe.
Manifesting good health is like a cycle. Your good health practices and positivity are great for your well-being. When you use them to wish for better health, you are basically making it work for yourself.
Pregnancy
For women who want to have their own babies, pregnancy is a reasonable thing to ask from the Universe. However, if this is your wish, you must make sure that manifesting will lead to happiness.
Do you really want a child? Are you wishing for a child because you know you are born to be a mom? But, on the other hand, are you hoping for a child so that you can keep your partner in check?
You see – the result may seem like a great thing – but the motivation can be wrong.
You can manifest anything you want. However, as you may have concluded by now, you need to be sure about your goal. Examine the details. When you visualize your future, think of the facts involved and the possible results of getting what you want.
Does Manifestation really work?
Manifesting works. It relies on your cooperation with the Universe. Yes, it happens. But just with anything in this world, you need to have faith in it.
You see: the manifesting process is achieved by purposely directing your positive energies at it. It is not a fairy magic spell.
You are actually pulling from something that you also contribute to. It has karmic reasoning backing it up. What you give is what you receive. Then, you make sure that you work hard towards it. It is not an overnight type of ritual that makes things fall onto you.
The Universe supports people who help themselves. So, yes, Manifesting works. Your mind has the power to make the most of your potential. It is innate in you, vibrating and waiting for you to tap on it.
Manifesting also works when it continues the Universe’s natural cycle of giving and receiving. It is not meant to be used for greedy means or for hurting others.
When you manifest, you should also think about your desires. If the Universe believes these goals will lead you into ruin, it will more likely not give them to you. Therefore, it is important to analyze every detail of your wishes. Will they ultimately make you a terrible person?
How is Manifestation similar and different from meditation?
No, they are not. Meditation is just one part of the whole Manifestation process. It can be one of many methods you have decided to use.
Meditation is being in touch with your inner self and your surroundings. It can stop there, within you and around you. On the other hand, manifestation is the process of creation. You are weaving a future and a reality for yourself.
The two are different. However, Meditation and Manifestation have similarities, too.
Both of them require focus and positive energy. You need to follow a mantra that you must hold onto. On the whole, you can at least say that the two belong to the same theoretical plane. Both allow you to get in touch with your true self, and they rely on the power of the mind.
Sometimes, religious people are quicker to oppose Manifestation over meditation. There is, after all, such a thing as a spiritual meditation. Some people are wary of Manifestation because they think it is against their religion.
But the thing is, even the people who first promoted Manifestation were against the use of it for anything negative. So the process should only be positive and good. It should not be used to restrict freedom or will the downfall of others.
How do you Start Manifesting?
You can start manifesting as soon as you are sure about what you want. You need mental clarity. You need to dig deep within yourself.
Do not just manifest because you are lonely and you want something to block your feelings. Go for something that you have always wanted. Going for someone is a more complicated matter.
The Universe will not allow you to make a decision for someone else. However, if that person is willing the same thing, perhaps your destinies will meet, and both of you will realize your dreams.
