What is manifesting, and how does it work?

“So like, I tried manifesting, and nothing happened.”

Does this sound like you? 

Maybe you spent the last few years scribbling down affirmations with multi-color glitter pens, sucking down chai tea while repeating your abundance mantras in a yoga pose, then clacking your crystals together while you desperately asked the Universe for enough money to….well, live.

Or maybe it’s that you’re ready to go bigger, meaning having enough money to live location-independent (Costa Rica for 6-months … Belize for the rest!)? 

Or maybe you’re ready to pay off that debt, take a year off to have a baby, transition to a new career or budding business of your own, or support your kid in college? 

Yeah, you need the cash. I know, I hear you. 

C’mon Universe, what’s up with this lame, foot-dragging rejection of my pleas?!

 

Because….silence. No money. No abundance. Feeling sick of chai tea.

Feeling bummed about your vision board. Manifesting doesn’t work. You’re still grinding it. Screw this.

Hold it right there.

Manifesting does work.

It’s just been so dumbed down, over-hyped and frankly, taken advantage of by well-meaning but uninformed gurus that it’s now…a shadow of its former self.

Let me show you how manifesting works in all its true, original glory.


 

What is manifesting, and how does it work?

 

Manifesting is the belief that repeatedly and systematically placing your emotions and thoughts on the things you want to be, do, or have will create a positive effect that helps bring them into reality.

 

I feel you: the idea of manifesting just caught your heart somehow. Mine too. 

Something just felt right about the idea that you can affect your future with the power of your heart and belief. The idea just clicks. 

You know it feels powerful and right.

It’s just….how? How do you do it?

Let me share a set of manifesting and Law of Attraction truths that have steered me well since 2001, when I first began my journey in manifesting.

And just so you know my background, I’m not some newbie rah-rah up-and-comer. 

I was Dr. Wayne Dyer’s radio co-host and producer for five years as we shared truths about his work and books about the power of intention, law of attraction, and manifesting. 

Louise L. Hay, mother of positive affirmations and author of You Can Heal Your Life, was my boss for almost a decade. 

I dreamed up and started Hay House Radio, and produced podcasts, webinars, and radio programs for Gregg Braden, Abraham-Hicks, and many other self-help luminaries for almost 10 years. 

If you add in my teaching my own students for 17 years…well my education in this field is pretty extensive

I definitely know a thing or two, and I’m here to help you so you can stop spinning in frustrated circles, bumping against the wall of unfulfilled desires.

You just don’t have to do that anymore. 

But what I’m going to tell you will fly in the face of a lot of the hype-y jingle-jangle you’ve probably been exposed to recently.

Ready?

Key things to remember:

1. Manifesting is the belief that repeatedly and systematically placing your emotions and thoughts on the things you want to be, do, or have will create a positive effect that helps bring them into reality.

2. A lot of the ideas that popular influencers are selling aren’t working for everyone, including you. And that’s perfectly okay. There is another way.

3. Real manifesting works. If you haven’t experienced it yet, you need to expand the ideas you’re listening to. There is a method that will work for you.
