How do you feel about manifesting?

Do you believe its as important as people say? Do you practice manifesting?

Any personal experiences?

I think you are doing it whether you are conscious of it or not so you may as well start manifesting what you want instead of what you don't want...

Ι suck at manifesting. I am way better when I decide to do something and go do it.

Manifesting is confusing.

I manifested The man of my dreams. Turned out to be the worst experience. Now I wish I’ve never met him

That's the danger with manifesting. If you are too specific you can end up in a "be careful what you wish for" scenario. It's best to focus on how you want to feel in a relationship. If your focus is on wanting a particular person to show up in your life, you can likely make that happen, but you can't make them be who you want them to be or act how you want them to act because they have free will.

If you focus on how you want to feel with a partner the Universe brings you someone more suited to you. Focus on the feeling of what love feels like to you, what being in love feels like in your body, what emotional contentment feels like in your body.

I think manifestation is something we struggle with in our culture because we intellectualize our emotions more than we feel them.

I have a question about that. Say, you have never been in a good relationship so you dont exactly know how it feels like to be contented in an rs, ho do you manifest it? I want to know because for myself, of all things.. rs is the one that I havent manifested in as i didnt have a strong desire in it until the last 2 years. But my past rs have been bad. Now I am with a good man and I wonder if i unintentionally manifested him or if I didnt, how can I manifest the good vibrations for my current rs if I dont know what a good rs feels like?

Well, we all know what we want a relationship to feel like right? When you are a 12 year old girl your are writing hearts and flowers on your notebook imagining what you think love will feel like. Then we manifest a relationship. The problems tend to come in when we start thinking thoughts like "well what if I get a guy and he cheats on me like my Dad cheated on my Mom", "what if I get a guy and he is only interested in sex", "what if I get a guy and he sees me naked and isn't interested" or once we are in a relationship we start worrying about the person leaving, or cheating, or doing something we can't deal with.

If you've never been in a relationship and you only have positive feelings about what it would be like to be in a relationship you are probably going to manifest someone in your life who is fairly compatible. That being said they might not be everything you want because you don't even know yet everything you want. So they do something that you just can't tolerate and the relationship ends, right?

At that point you can either worry that the next relationship will be like that too, and continue to attract the same type of people over and over (which is what a lot of us do). Or you can focus on what was good and add "would like a guy to clip his toenails in the appropriate place" or whatever to your list of what you DO want.

Usually issues that end a relationship are bigger than that, but you get the gist?

Yes. I get what youre saying. So i possibly manifested my current man based on your example. I wanted a marrying type who doesnt have vices like drinking, smoking, drugs or partying. And my man, showed up in thousands of tinder users. I guess my role now is to keep manifesting the good vibes and keep it the way it is if not better.

I was curious as same as your example, I have attracted non-committal types in the past especially the last one which i didnt find out til after 4 years of being together. It had been an ongoing pattern for the last 7 years before this current one. I have also attracted mostly old men as that was my preference due to my daddy issues (my dad passed away when I was 8). Mind you, those rs were committed/exclusive rs but what I meant about non-committal is.. they all didnt wanna marry. They wanna have a gf but not a family which to me is a dead end in an rs.

It's been my experience that if I really examine where things went wrong in a relationship (or a job, or with money, or my kids, or anything really) that I was usually worrying about that thing going wrong thereby manifesting it into my life.

It's easy to explain if you understand it, much harder to practice because as humans we are just wired with all of these emotions both bad and good and our ego monkey brains are going non-stop all day long. So the key is to catch the thoughts that send you into a spiral of bad feelings before you are lost in the bad feelings and then essentially deconstruct that ego limitation you are setting for yourself.

For example if your man seems to pull away a little and you start wondering if he's reconsidering commitment you need to stop and ask yourself "why am I worried about that"? If the answer is "I want to settle down and so he needs to commit", you ask yourself "why do I even need to be in a committed relationship?" "well because that will make me feel stable and confident".

I guess the goal really is to get to the point where you don't really need the thing (whatever it is) to be satisfied. You are satisfied with where you are at, but the thing you want would be really nice to have. That way you feel safe, secure and satisfied whether you have it or not. Monkey brain loses it's hold over you and you stay in a vibration that allows you to bring in the positive things that will make your life even better i.e; committed relationship.

I practice chaos magic which is a more formal process of manifesting and it’s also very effective to the point where in some cases you have to be very careful what you wish for.

An important component in this technique is the sigil aka seal or as we know it today symbol

First you create a symbol and with your minds eye you fill this symbol with your intent as you draw it....the longer it takes the better also the more thought and intent that goes into it the better.

Then you need to activate it depending on the type of magic you deem fit.

Water - drown

Fire - burn

Air - free

Earth - bury

There’s other types like blood, sex, sacrifice.

Pretty much any type of magic you resonate with will be the catalyst you can even choose to not do anything with it and let is stay dormant and it will have a more subtle controlled effect than the others.

There’s lots of YouTube videos on chaos magic check it out

I have been going hard on mental health. Positive affirmations, meditations, hypnosis, manifesting acting as though things already are), working out, keeping my spaces clean, being grateful, offering those around me my gratitude.

I find when my mind tries to butt in and say i'm being a hippie nut bag... that fighting that is sometimes hard. But I do absolutely feel better and more alive. Learning to trust in what I cannot see or what I cannot understand is my biggest hurdle. Always has been.

I fear that I wont be able to manifest if my doubt keep slipping in. But isnt this normal? I put it right to bed, but its there sometimes.
