Manifestation Step 2

Know what you do want…
The second step to manifesting all of your desires!

Manifestation is the process of transforming your desires into reality.

To manifest your desires all you have to do is know what you really want and then imagine with all of your senses that you are experiencing what you want to be, do or have NOW.

When you do this, because of the Law of Attraction, the experience or thing you desire will manifest into physical form.

The first manifestation step - Know What You Don't Want - can help you clarify what you do want.

What I love and find extremely challenging about the second step - Know What You DO Want - is getting it that I really do have a say in what happens in my life and on the planet.

By uncovering and naming what I really want, I am, in a sense, wording the world into existence.

By owning this step, I truly claim my power as a conscious co-creator with the universe.

Since you can manifest ANYTHING you REALLY want…

What do you want to be, do, or have so much that you will clear your blocks to it, practice imagining it is so, and allow it to manifest?

Conscious, Unconscious, and Higher Self
Three Parts - Wanting Different Things!

When we align the desires of our conscious, unconscious, and higher self, we become Master Manifesters and are able to effortlessly attract anything we want.

However, most of us don't start off with these three parts even in the same room - much less wanting the same thing.

For me the practice of manifestation step two, knowing what I DO want, is a spiral process of identifying, integrating, letting go, and aligning the desires of these three aspects of myself.

For example...

My conscious mind wants an income that gives me the freedom to live in the home of my desires and keep it well tended.

However, when I check in at a deeper level - to my unconscious, I am aware of a feeling/thought that is something like, “Ha! Like you’ll ever be able to afford to live in a great home and have the money to maintain it.”

When I ask my higher self about this, the message I receive is that Awakening and being fully present in every cell is what is most important to me.

So, then, what do I do??? How do I know what to manifest?

However, in the past I used two exercises that helped me. I'll share them with you here in case they're helpful for you as well.

1. One exercise has us explore the Essence qualities of the object of our desires.

   Essence qualities include joy, peace, love, wisdom, intimate depth, truth, energy, strength, and connection - to name a few. When we explore them, we gain clarity about what our Higher Self is longing for us to experience.

   To do this exercise, ask yourself, “What are the Essence qualities I think I will experience when I have manifested the object of my desire?”

   In my situation, the Essence qualities I think I will experience when I have manifested an income that allows me to live well in the home of my choice are...

   • ease
   • home - a sense of belonging
   • power/strength
   • connection with others

   If I ask my Higher Self about manifesting these experiences, the response is, “You are already That. Let yourself experience these qualities and the home will come.”

2. This second exercise is to find out what our unconscious wants.

   Write or say an affirmation that states that you are already experiencing the object of your desire then write or say the first thoughts that arise.

   Those first thoughts are often our unconscious’ objections and/or desires.

   My affirmation is, “I am enjoying a life of ease in my wonderful and well maintained home.”

   My first thoughts are, “I can’t afford that. It’ll just be a lot of work. I don’t want to because it’s too much work. I like my life just as it is. I don’t want to work harder or more.”

As you can see by this example, I still have some blocks to manifesting a wonderful home that is well tended. I wonder… Do I really want it?

Having a better understanding of our blocks to manifestation and how to clear them can help us figure out what to do...

Check out the third step to manifestation - Believe you will receive your desires by clearing your blocks to them and opening the flow of abundance.

Working through the third step gives us the confidence and willingness to shift our vibration into alignment with the object of our desire and imagine it into physical form.
