Visualizing is a great manifesting technique to help you achieve your goals and dreams. However, sometimes it just seems like it is not really working. Or even worse… negative stuff starts showing up instead! Why is that? And how to overcome this obstacle?
Here’s my take on it! The visualization exercise is not the actual thing that brings the desired outcome. No matter how much or how often you see your goals in your mind’s eye, they are not likely to manifest. What the visualization really aims at is to help us feel the emotion of already having what we want. The vibration of our wishes come true is what actually does the magic.
Sadly, what happens very often is when we visualize our goals, there is a wide gap between what we want and our current reality. And the more we practice this technique, the more we see that discrepancy. Consequently, what we usually feel is impatience, disappointment, frustration, sadness, even anger. If this happens, you guessed it – the visualization backfires, because what manifests is the frequency, not the images in our mind.
So, what can you do? If you notice that your manifesting practices lead to strong negative emotions, you can try my top 3 favorite ways to shift my vibration back to positivity:
1. Gratitude – try substituting the visualization technique (at least for a period of time) with listing and feeeeeling grateful for what you already have. This is the most effective way to get back to joy, light, and love.
2. Meditation – just pause with the wishes and just be. Be as relaxed, content, and happy HERE and NOW as much as possible. Meditation and mindfulness do this job perfectly!
3. The 3 good things exercise – start listing what positive things happened during the day – big or small (especially the small!).
Remember that the key to successful manifesting is turning our focus inward and going for the feeling and the vibration first and foremost! This practice operates on a huge paradox – to enjoy your dreams coming true, first you need to enjoy your life HERE and NOW!
