Manifesting Dreams
manifest verb 1. To show or demonstrate plainly; reveal 2. To be evidence of; prove
We'd all love to perfect the art and magic of manifesting our dreams and wishes. Like anything else, it takes persistence and practice. It takes trust in a benevolent, abundant and loving Universe. It takes trust that your dreams and your wishes are valid. Here is a simple method for clarifying and manifesting.
two hearts are better than one
Ask a supportive, open person to unconditionally align with you on what you want. This works because when we act alone it is all too easy for our minds to undermine the possibility of a dream that is "way out there" for us.
the process
- Be specific about your desired outcome. To clarify this desire, divide your "Wish List" into three areas:
- Minimum Requirements
- Most Desired Characteristics
- Seemingly Impossible Elements
- Be especially clear on your Minimum Requirements. You will not accept anything less than these. This is the "must have" part of your vision, so be conservative but clear.
- Become much more expansive and detailed with your Most Desired Characteristics list. It is important that you paint a clear picture with words, so that you and your partner will know exactly what you want and what it will look like.
- Go wild and crazy with the Seemingly Impossible. What the heck? You're dreaming here! When your mind says things like, "You can't have THAT!" or "People will think you're crazy!" thank it for sharing and go on with your wild list. Be BOLD. You have nothing to lose by dreaming!
holding the intention
- Put the list up where you can see it and read through the list at least once a day.
- Speak freely and often about your dream with your supportive friend, being as passionate and positive about your dream as you can.
- Tell NO ONE who is negative or judgmental. A dream in its initial stages is vulnerable. Fear and doubt erodes the process. If you begin to doubt, talk to your partner.
- Hold the Intention 24/7. In other words, no matter what else you're doing during your days, in the back of your mind you are bringing this dream to fruition. (Think of holding it in your cupped hands and breathing life into it.) Note: Allow for something different but much better than you could possibly imagine showing up!
- Take consistent actions toward your dreams. Even expert manifestors do the footwork to realize their dreams. If it’s a home, you look at homes constantly, talk about homes, read about homes and dream about homes. Do the homework for your dream in joy and trust!
being grateful
You've heard it before, but it can never be said enough: acknowledge, be thankful and celebrate the goodness of your life NOW. Do it on getting out of bed, in the shower, driving, etc. BE THANKFUL. Acknowledge the sources and Source of your life. Make sure people, animals, Earth, etc., GET how much you appreciate them. Do that in ways appropriate for each.
