How to Manifest Step 4Ask for it and Activate the Law of Attraction Many people who want to learn how to manifest begin with this step by using affirmations and creating vision boards. While this can and does work at times, sometimes people get discouraged because they don't get results right away. To really understand how to manifest and feel empowered to manifest anything, it helps to learn about and use all 6 manifestation steps and the Emotional Guidance System. Manifestation is the process of transforming your desires into reality. How to manifest... Once you've identified what you don't want and used this awareness to clarify what you do want, and cleared your blocks to receiving it, it's time to use the 4th step by asking for what you want and activating the Law of Attraction. There are several ways to ask for what you want including...
Each of these work in slightly different ways. Vision boards are great. They are a picture representation of what you want. You might have heard them called treasure maps. Create a vision board
On that vision board I had images of plants, a candle, figures of people gathered around in classes, the word breath. I remember at the time feeling that the part about my work would never manifest - it felt impossible that there would ever be that many people in my practice or in workshops I taught. About 4 or 5 years later, I looked at the vision board and was amazed that every image on it had manifested - not exactly how I had originally thought they would - but in a way that felt totally satisfying. Affirmations are sentences written or spoken in the present tense that declare we want is happening now. For example, one of my business goals used to be to see twenty-seven clients a week. An affirmation I used related to this goal was “I am joyfully and lovingly seeing twenty-seven clients this week.” Affirmations work best when we have cleared most of our blocks. If we haven’t, we can use affirmations until we’re blue in the face, but we’ll still be sending out the vibration of what we unconsciously want every time we say our affirmation - and that’s what we’ll get! If you have cleared out your blocks, you can use the "sixty-eight second" rule. If you've been learning about how to manifest you might have heard of Abraham - a group of Guides channeled by Esther Hicks. You can find out more about what they say about how to manifest in the book Ask and It Is Given: Learning to Manifest Your Desires
The idea of the "sixty-eight second rule" came from Abraham. It says that if we hold a thought to be true for 68 seconds or longer, it is "planted in the Universe" and will manifest. For this to work and to "hold a thought to be true," you have to feel as if it is happening now - not just say or think the words. Most people who are just learning how to manifest hold a thought for about 2 seconds... For example...
Once you've learned how to manifest, you'll realize that when you don't hold the thought for 68 seconds it's like stepping forward and back, forward and back, forward and back... Get the picture? To use the 68 second rule and "hold the thought," I say the affirmation and then elaborate on it by adding more details about what's happening. As I do this, I both see it happening in my mind and feel in my body the sensations of it happening now. I do this for 68 seconds or more to the best of my ability. Another way to use affirmations is to write them daily to remind yourself of your desires or post them somewhere that you will see regularly. Prayer is one of my favorite ways of asking for what I desire because for me when I use it I experience my sense of connection with the Divine. I often use prayer when I feel stumped and need help with something. For example, I might ask in prayer something like, “I really want to see twenty-seven clients a week, please help me attract them and show me what I need to do to help create this.” Intentions are fun as well! When I use intentions, I feel into the future and sense what wants to happen. For example, “I intend to continue to work on this website until it is well used by many people and providing them with very helpful information." I think intentions work because they call forth a sense of inner knowing about what is possible for us to do, create, or manifest. They have us become conscious and intentional about it. If you haven’t used intentions, take a moment to think about the next twenty-four hours and ask yourself what you intend to do, create, or manifest. Write it down and then let it go. Tomorrow look back at what you wrote and see if what you wrote manifested. Multi-sensory imaging is the most powerful tools you can practice if you want to learn how to manifest. With it you can harness the power of your imagination through intentional, focused practice. With multi-sensory imaging, we take visualization to the next level by using all our senses when we imagine that what we want is happening now. Practice Multi-Sensory Imaging
When we vibrate as if our desire is so, we consciously activate the Law of Attraction and what we desire will manifest at the right time. If you want to continue to learn about how to manifest read about the fifth step to manifestation - Gratitude. Once we have gone through the first four steps, we can be assured whatever we want is coming to us. Gratitude closes the loop on the process.
