One of the key components of attracting what you desire through the law of attraction and manifesting is visualizing. Your thoughts will only get you so far, as the LOA is more about feelings, not thoughts. Your thoughts begin you to start feeling how you will feel once you get what you are trying to attract. But what happens in the middle? Visualizing it!
Benefits of Visualizing What You Want There are so many amazing benefits to visualization, especially when it comes to the law of attraction. As you might know, to manifest what you desire, you not only think about what you feel, but try to feel it. This is often the missing puzzle piece people don’t understand. With visualization, you can really get into that place of achieving what you desire, and feeling and experiencing it as if it has already happened!
Visualizing can also happen in a number of other ways, including:
Helping to maintain a positive mindset. To manifest what you want, you need to raise your vibration and maintain positivity, knowing deep down you WILL achieve this. Visualization is a great way to find that faith and see it play out exactly how you want it.
Reducing limiting beliefs. Everyone has limiting beliefs, these beliefs that they can’t have something because of some circumstance. With visualization, these don’t matter and they no longer exist in your new reality.
Raising your vibrations. Since visualization helps you see things as you want them, and not as they are, it reduces stress and gives you hope. This can do wonders for your vibrational energy.
Methods for Visualizing
Here are some different ways you can start visualizing what you hope to manifest:
Create a vision board – To see what you desire, get pictures of what it is you want, and put them on a board called a vision board. This can be for the next year, the next month, or a lifetime of dreams you want to accomplish.
Use scripting – Writing what you want in the present tense, as if it has already happened and you are living that dream life, helps tremendously with visualization.
Try meditation – Lastly, you can clear your mind and visualize more effectively by using meditation.
Remember it is About Feelings, Not Thoughts
As you work on visualization, really focus on how you would feel if you had that thing you want, not just on your thoughts, during this phase of the law of attraction.
Visualization helps you get into that place where you are living your dream life, which allows you to feel it. You feel the steering wheel of your brand new car, you feel the wind on your face while standing on the balcony of your beach house, you feel the comfort and security of wealth and abundance.
Just a few minutes a day of breathing exercises is enough to get this done.
The Do’s and Don’ts of Law of Attraction
Everyone comes across the law of attraction in a different way – maybe you saw or read “The Secret”, a family member gave you a book about manifesting for Christmas, or you stumbled upon a YouTube video. No matter how you heard about it, it is important that you read and learn as much as you can to truly understand the universe and how it works.
That starts with understanding some basic do’s and don’ts for using the law of attraction to manifest what you want the most in your life right now.
Do: Set Your Intentions
Always set your intentions when you are asking for what you want. You want the universe to know you are asking for something that you desire, and that it isn’t just a random thought.
– set your intentions and be clear with what you want. It often helps to first visualize what you want, then think about how you can get there through positive action, then set intentions each day based on what will get you closer.
Don’t: Think About How it Will Happen
It is not your job to figure out exactly how something is going to manifest into your life; that is what the universe is going to do for you. You are not in control of how or when something is attracted into your life. Instead, trust in the universe, pay attention to the signs, and take action when your intuition is telling you to.
Do: FEEL What You Want
Remember that the universe can’t hear your thoughts, but it can recognize your feelings. It is essential that when you are visualizing, you are feeling what you want to achieve. If you want to lose weight, don’t just think about how much weight you are trying to lose or how to lose weight. Visualize the end result after you have lost your weight, then really FEEL it. How will your life change? What will it feel like when you touch your body? How excited will you be? Will your confidence be better? Does it change your lifestyle?
Don’t: Focus on Your Limiting Beliefs
Limiting beliefs are only going to keep you from what you want to manifest. Try to identify what your limiting beliefs are, and find a solution for each of them. While you
don’t want to write a lot of negativity, it is still good to write down what you believe your limiting beliefs are.
Think about the biggest goal or dream you have. Get as far-fetched as you possibly can. Don’t just aim to learn $100,000 a year. Aim to earn $1 million a year if that is your goal. If you instantly feel like it is unrealistic, think about WHY you think that. Those reasons are your limiting beliefs.
Do: Live As If
This goes along with “like attracts like”. If you live as if you are lacking, you are going to attract more lack. Try to live as if as much as you can. When you want to be healthier, live like a healthier person who eats right and exercises. If you want to be successful, live as if you already are successful by completing tasks for your business each day.
