Work with Energy to Manifest Your Desires

Manifesting what you want in life is far easier when you take the time to focus your energy around your desires before jumping into action. When you have clear vision (which can be more about the feeling, or essence, than the ‘thing’) and spend time doing the energy work to line up with your desire, pure magic unfolds!
Creating with energy is done by getting into a quiet and relaxed state and then bringing images, symbols and ideas to your mind that are in line with your desire. When you focus your thoughts in this way you create an almost magnetic force that draws your desire to you.
Following are some tips for how to manifest with energy:
Trust. Perhaps most important of all is to hold a space of trust in yourself, and your process. You may feel like you’re pretending, or like something is ‘just a coincidence’, or like you’re ‘not doing it right’. Allow these thoughts to gently wash over you and release them, knowing that everything is unfolding perfectly. There is no right or wrong.
Relax. Find a time and place where you can sit quietly and relax without interruption. You may want to have a drink of water before starting, and keep a glass nearby for afterwards.
Get clear on what you want. Get as specific as you can about the details, especially concerning how it will feel to experience the manifestation. It is important you choose something that you believe is possible, can think positively about, and intend to have. The more you believe and expect it, the easier it is to manifest!
Frame your desire as a do-want. It is absolutely critical that you focus all of your intentions in terms of what you do want, not what you don’t want. The Universe does not hear yes or no - it manifests based on your focused attention. Thinking about the lack of what you want will create more lack in your experience.
Visualize your desire. Start to tell the story in your mind’s eye of what your manifestation will look like. You can bring symbols and images to mind, focus on the scents you might experience, imagine the sounds you will hear, tap into the physical sensations you expect to feel. For me, this experience is like watching a movie unfold - I set up the opening act and then allow my creative self to take over with the story line.
Imagine your body as a magnetic force. Now that you have a visual of what you are attracting, you’ll want to experience yourself as a force that is pulling the desire toward you. How this looks for you is not as important as how it feels, so feel free to use any visual or prompt that allows you to feel the energetic attraction. This might involve seeing yourself as an actual giant magnet pulling the desire towards you through time and space. Or perhaps you will prefer the act of sitting with the energy of your manifestation until it fills you. There are no wrong answers here, so feel free to experiment and go with what feels best.
Stop when you feel done. There will come a point where you feel done with the attraction experience. This might feel like a stop, or like the energy is fading. It might feel like an absolute knowing that the manifestation is coming, almost as if it were already there, which highlights that you’ve reached the peak of your experience. Trust in your internal sign that you’re done and allow yourself to gently come out of the experience.
Pay attention. Over the next few days pay attention to insights or ideas that you get about your intentions around this manifestation. You may find yourself inspired with a new brilliant idea, or someone will present you with an opportunity that will move you forward. Be open and trust in the signs that present themselves to you!
Have fun! Manifesting with energy is supposed to be fun! It’s an uplifting experience, and one that you can’t get wrong. Be easy with yourself, and allow your process to unfold as uniquely yours.
