Meditation, Manifesting, Gratitude & The Law of Attraction

[CMF]

Hi everyone,

Not sure where to start so hope I can express myself clearly and maybe with others' input we can expand on this. I'm interested in people's thoughts/ experience with meditation, manifesting, gratitude & the law of attraction. I've recently started using the Smiling Mind app to meditate when going to sleep and sometimes when feeling a little anxious, like tonight. It is something i thought i could never do as my mind rarely stops, however, with persistence, I find I enjoy it. I guess i tend to have a negative mindset which I am determined to change.I always felt uneasy about thinking positive things as i thought i would jinx myself, and that whenever I made a positive comment or felt happy it would go wrong or something negative would happen. So i refrained from allowing myself to be too happy, I guess to 'protect' myself. Recently i have been feeling happier, stronger, expressing gratitude and taking note of when things have come to me when i needed them. Coincidence, or answers to what i put out to the Universe? I like to think the latter. A work colleague one day told me to manifest something i wanted, put it out to the universe , so I'm trying. Example, recently we needed to measure the floor space at reception so we could calculate how many people we could have in at one time. I needed a tape measure, which i did not have. At that moment our handyman walked into the office. Guess what he had? I am getting into the habit of practising positive thinking instead of thinking/expecting negatives. If something 'negative' does crop up, it can be dealt with, it's not the end of the world. I look for the positive in every negative situation. I am becoming more aware of being grateful for little things, things like getting a good car park at work, a warn cosy bed, a tidy house. I feel when i am expressing gratitude I am putting positive thoughts out into the universe and I notice more positives instead of focusing on negatives. Late last week we had internet issues at work and a colleague i found a little annoying. I've been feeling very drained, agitated, negative for a few days. This morning things were not running smoothly for me. A result of my negative mind perhaps? Little things became a big deal, my morning was crap. If i look back, it wasn't really an issue, i just did things in a different order which gave me more relax time this evening. The Law of Attraction, positive thoughts, positive experiences.

What are your thoughts?

Come to think of it, there have been changes. My little miss' dad has been finishing work early and picking her up from after-care last few weeks. Since his parents passes last year he's living back on other side of town but is looking to move back near us to be closer to her & more involved. She can sleep there weekends etc. A house he likes is up for auction this weekend. I also looked at it & put the positive vibes out. It is beautiful. I've been manifesting for him to find peace & 😊.

Hi CMF

You're so thoughtful and magical 🙂 Will be interesting to hear how the auction goes

[CMF]

Thank you therising,

A special person told me something about manifesting for others.

Pretty sure it was you 😊🙏

That's beautiful to manifest for others!

I always want the best for my family and friends and always hope for their happiness I guess this is a way of manifesting!

I have been trying to stay positive and continue manifesting and seeing myself in the job I applied for. It can be so challenging to wait to hear back! It's only been two weeks but then again I applied the day the posting went out.

Thank you for all the support everyone and let's continue our manifestation and positivity journey!

New clothes, new jobs, new promotions, new cars, new houses! Yay for everyone!

Manifesting and “praying” for others is so beneficial, yes! It’s good for those the prayers are going toward - and it also comes back to the prayer too! Sending good out to everyone 💞.

I fell off the wagon last night and went on a bender watching true crime shows 👎. Felt crap going to sleep after that and put me on a dumpy vibe. Does anyone have any recommendations for comedy shows or other feel good stuff to watch? I’m searching for something to watch right now.

Hi Amelia02,

Every night I watch 10 peach. Friends, Big Bsng Theory, Seinfeld. It's light, no brainer & funny. I don't mind that it just repeats episodes. It relaxes me & I enjoy.

Do you have Netfix or Stan? They're on there. I also enjoy Everybody Loves Raymond, Kathy & Kim...anything that is light and funny.

[Amelia02]

Thanks CMF.

Got Stan. First round Unreal - eh. More depressing seeing the machinations being “reality” TV.
Second round - Bloods. Good fun! Recommended 🙂.

Hope you and all are having a nice evening.

Hi therising & all reading,

You may remember I was manifesting for my partner's sis to find love & move on/out of the house they share. I was see myself as the 3rd wheel with them. She now wants to buy new furniture for THEIR house despite having a new man. I've always asked "why was this obstacle (her) placed in my path? She moved in right after we started seeing each other. I realised last night that perhaps I am the obstacle in her path & she's trying (unconsciously perhaps) to claim he'd territory?

Her plan to buy into her bro's house & move in/set up family with him & his boys was in motion before he & I reconnected. It was gonna happen. Then I came along. I think if I look at it from a different angle it may change my perspective. She thought she'd move in, play wife/mother, leave her empty rationship & have bro to fill the void. The Universe had other plans for bro - me. She's gone from 1 relationship to another to another with a month or so in between. Can't be on her own. She buys expensive things for bro, wanted to lend him money for his car, wants new furniture & TV for THEIR house. She accepts me & is good to me but she always finds ways to control him, like they're a couple. I need to change my mindset. She is the 3rd wheel,not me. I need to keep manifesting for her to move on. I will not let her get on the middle of us as she always does,physically & mentally.

Manifest, Manifest, Manifest!🙏

Hi CMF

Perhaps she'll take the furniture with her or leave it behind as a gift when she moves out. Perhaps they'll agree to sell the place together and the couch won't fit in with the decor of the house you and he will buy together. Then you'll be able to buy a new couch, one the colour of your choice. Something vibrant or incredibly calming I imagine. Maybe a combo of calming couch with high vibey cushions. You never know, perhaps she'll purchase his share of the house when the time is right, so that he's free to move on 🙂

I work with some amazing people with incredible natural abilities. One of them I would describe as a seer. She's an incredible visionary. The way she described how she sees is something I'd never heard of before and it's seriously impressive, in my opinion. She described it as seeing various possibilities all playing out on different screens in her mind. She chooses the image she wants and runs with it. I suppose you could say it's a kind of 'channeling'. Choose the channel you want and focus only on that one, while getting rid of all other channels. Kind of like manifesting through one channel, with a degree of flexibility in the way things play out. When things appear to go off course, she'll pull up the screens again to see which course of action needs to come next.

I wonder whether you're tuning into his sister's vision of how things are going to play out, how she sees it all. Could this be another one of your incredibly natural or super natural abilities coming to life, being able to see what other people see? If you were to try and tune into what your guy's vision of the future looks like, what's the reception like? A bit staticy and unclear? That could be spot on too, at this stage of his life. Perhaps he doesn't have a clear vision or perhaps all he sees is what's best for his kids, a stable home and a roof over their heads and he'll do whatever it takes to hold onto that. Is he more tuned into his kids' future than anything else (a typical trait of a devoted parent)?

Hi CMF,

Furniture buying sounds like she is consolidating her place in her bro’s space/ life..

Have you straight up talked to your partner about your feelings toward his sister/ how you want your domestic life with him to be independent of her? Is he able to accommodate something that is such a priority to you? Or does it clash with a high priority for him ie living with his sister? Has couples counseling been tried if the two of you haven’t been able to figure this out on your own? If he cannot respect your needs enough or you have a clash is it worth sticking around? Can you find someone else better for you? Sorry if I missed this detail in previous posts.
Have you straight up spoken to the sister about your discomfort over her permanently living with the two of you?

Interpersonal stuff can be so difficult sometimes..
