DEAR LOOKING TO MANIFEST:
Asking yourself what you want, being mindful of the influence you and others have on your life, and being in alignment with your desires all have an impact on your life.
First, it is essential to ask yourself what you want. Once you’ve identified that, you can set goals to help you get there. Practicing goal setting and writing out the action steps you need to take to achieve them helps to bring your dreams closer to reality. Creating vision boards, posters depicting pictures and words related to your long term and short term goals are some manifesting techniques to help set your intentions. You can also ask the universe for help with manifesting what you want. Before manifestation meditation, I might ask the universe for some guidance on something, and then I let it go. As I am meditating and clearing my mind, the answer comes through.
To co-create with intention, it is also vital to be mindful of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Everything you think, feel, and do influences your life, the life of others, and the world at large. For example, let’s say you want more harmony and less conflict in your life. If you are argumentative, judgmental, and close-minded, you would not be contributing to creating connection in your life. But, on the other hand, if you are fair, accepting, and open-minded, you will instill more peace.
Also, keep in mind that we all pick up each other’s energy. If you get swept up in another person's negative energy, that can prevent you from creating what you want. For example, if you have someone in your life that believes what’s the use in trying because it never works out anyway, you can get caught up in that, and it can prevent you from putting in the effort. Some people can pull themselves out of negative energy; it isn’t so easy for others. If it is hard for you, ask yourself what draws you in, and work through that. Exploring what is happening will prevent you from getting sidetracked from manifesting what your heart desires!
Lastly, your thoughts, feelings, and actions also need to be aligned to create with intention. It is harder to manifest what you want if they aren’t aligned. For example, let’s say you want to meet someone special, fall in love, and get married. It will be much harder manifesting love if you think that all the good ones are taken, that love doesn’t last, or that you aren’t deserving of love and happiness. You need to clear out these beliefs so that you are more open to inviting love into your life and ensuring that it lasts if that’s what you truly want.
We truly have the greatest influence over our lives. Therefore, it is essential to stop and take an honest inventory of yourself and what you create, both positive and negative. Then, you can celebrate the positive, which helps bring more positivity into your life. At the same time, if you know how you are influencing things negatively, you can make changes that make your life better. I love knowing that I am the co-creator of my life and that I have an influence over everything in it! It helps me take a step back and look at what I want and don’t want and then ask myself what I am going to do about it.
Here's to manifesting all of your desires in 2022!
Warmly,
Sherry
