The practice of manifesting has been around for a long time, with its roots in spiritual and philosophical teachings. The 19th and early 20th centuries saw the rise of the new thought movement, featuring public figures who were advocates of the Law of Attraction, which focused on the power of the mind to manifest desires.
Co-creation (with the Universe) and life transformation are what it’s all about. The great thing about manifesting methods is they can be applied to realizing anything… tangible things, circumstances, relationships and romance, wealth (try writing an abundance check) life experiences, employment, anything!
Alignment is a success-critical component. That means aligning the desired outcome (your intention) with your beliefs, thoughts, and actions to make it a reality. And achieve vibrational alignment with the outcome that you want.
Manifestation is closely linked to the Law of Attraction. But think about manifesting as a bigger concept, with the Law of Attraction being one of a range of methods that can be used to achieve goals or outcomes.
The manifesting process is a ‘simple to learn but [can be] difficult to master’ deal. It might look something like this:
- Get clear on what you want (inc. ask and surrender to the Universe)
- Address self-doubt and negative thinking
- Plan and take action
- Maintain/refine your manifestation practices (gratitude, affirmations, keeping your vibe high, meditation, the 369 method, journaling, and any other method’s you like)
- Trust the process

You can use visualization to manifest every single stage of your life – your desire may not arrive in the exact fashion in which you visualize them, but know that they will manifest in some form. Visualization need not only be used for what you desire in the future, but also at your current stage. Every goal can be broken down into steps and stages, and while it’s great to visualize your end destination, your attention should primarily be focused on achieving what you need to achieve right now.” – Ryuu Shinohara
