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?

Hi therising,

I can't wait to compare notes. My challenge to manifest for her comes from the negativity I feel toward her for sure. Im6struggling to feel & visualise her moving on. What do I say to manifest this?

On another note, I realised that she may not be able to meet someone, have kids because she is living there & therefore telling The Universe that she has what she wants. I'll bet if she moved back into her own house, and lives like a single woman I stead of a married with kids woman, the right one would cone into her life as she would REALLY manifest it then. St the moment she's living what she wants but with her brother & his kids.

Gees, I feel the resentment & anxiety coming back. Needto change it. how do we really her to move on?

Hi CMF

Sometimes I wish I had the instruction manual to life, this way I'd know what I was doing wrong. If such a thing existed, I imagine there'd be a chapter on 'Coming from the wrong perspective and how to stop it'. Maybe another would be 'How to manifest when someone's blocking your every move'. With that second one, it may include 'When multiple people are blocking progress'.

You know those times where you're working so hard on making progress and things are going so incredibly well (you feel yourself in the flow), then all of a sudden you come across people who don't want to budge, based on them not being able to see the way forward as clearly. You can see the most constructive and healthy way forward, as clear as day. It can even be in a way that serves everyone. But, nup, they're just not budging. Nothing you say or do will lead them to move on. I admit to being guilty of this myself at times, not budging, which drives some of those around me to frustration.

The relationship with your partner has taken everyone into a new stage of life but it sounds like you're the only one who can clearly see this new stage. You're partner maybe can't fully recognise it, his sister can't recognise it. Who knows, maybe one or both of his kids can. I think younger people can generally feel when it's time to move out and move on with life. They begin to feel certain limitations which don't allow them to move to the next stage. Maybe the question comes down to how to lead people to recognise a new stage of life. If they flat out just refuse to look at it, that's a whole other story: What to do when people choose to ignore things. Do we detach from those who ignore or do we work around them, working with all the aspects that suit us? As you can see, I have more questions than answers.

I can relate to resentment and not being able to entirely shake it and it agitates me. It's definitely an agitating feeling. I hate vibing in resentment. Hate the feeling of being on a low when I absolutely love the highs in life. My 16yo son and 19yo daughter lead me to highs whereas my husband leads me to feel lows. He's a non budger, a 'that's just me, that's just the way I am' kind of guy who feels no need for the relationship to evolve beyond what it is - deeply unfulfilling.

I've found when the vibe is high I can see the next move clearly. When it's low, only the blocks appear. Maybe the challenge is to manifest a higher vibration for ourselves and things will appear clearer.

So I've been manifesting for my partners sis to meet the right one/move on. She called me tonight to te(l me she found out her ex was seeing someone else before they broke up. She also told me she was on a date tonight. Her brother doesn't know but she called me about the ex cheating cos her brother's away & she didn't want to bother him.

The guy she's on a date with sounds more on her level, got his own house, boats, more set up etc.

Maybe my manifesting is working. I was touched that she called me & I do wish happiness for her.

Another interesting point is that this all came about while my partner/her brother was away. She was a 'single woman this weekend as he was away & she found out about the ex cheating so she went on this date with closure, a clear mind & open heart. Funny how when you remove something from the equation (my partner/her brother) things opened up for her.

I truly hope her date goes well.

Hi CMF

You are a true inspiration. I imagine the Universe giving you a smile and a wink while saying 'All you need to do is trust and give things a little time'. Maybe, as an added bonus, she's naturally feeling drawn to the manifester of magic. You have just put a huge smile on my face. Wishing you only the best 🙂

Therising,

I'm glad I made you smile. I've woken during the night & looked at the time...4.44am. Wow this is significant for me right now.

I would really like to have that sister relationship with her. This could be our moment to start that? Another nice thing happened last night. My partner's son was home alone so called my older daughter to see if she wanted to grab some dinner. She was with me, having dinner at my nephew's but how nice that my partner's family reached out to us while he's away, both his sis & his son.

I'll keep manifesting for his sis. I feel we've broken through a barrier. She knows I'm not oblivious to things, I pick up on things. We could have more one on one chats & perhaps I could mention her having her own space to meet a guy. I feel if she really meets the right one he's not gonna want to be coming to see her at a house he shares with her bro & his kids. The right will want to be with her & just her. Family can be close but there needs to be space, privacy. I never understood how hervex was ok with the living arrangement she has considering she's 42 &they were talking about having kids. I'll message her today to see how the date went & tell her we'll talk more, sister to sister. Maybe I can mention the space thing, how it looks to The Universe, what it's putting out there.

The Universe has def answered me. It's opened opportunities for discussion, connection & openess.

Hi CMF

I got chills pretty much the whole way through your post 🙂 As I may have mentioned before, that 'chill' factor is something I only experience when someone or something resonates with a deeper part of me. I suppose you could say it's like someone or something 'ringing' through to your soul, a soul call. Your post was 'chilling' while leading me to feel an incredible sense of joy. I'm so excited for you in regard to all that's opening up for you.

You got a massive smile out of me when you mentioned the 4:44. We apparently looked at the clock at exactly the same time 🙂

[CMF]

Wow, now I have chills. I also saw 5.55am. Clearly something has woken me this morning. When I had my cards read last week I was told my Mum is trying to contact me 🙏

I've had another 'A-HA' moment this morning. His sis moved in about a month after we started seeing each other again. He & I getting back together the way we did was Universe magic, all the pieces being moved around till they fitted correctly. She moved in a month later clearly so her presence wouldn't block us being together. She was always going help him out & move in. The timing of it...well.. The Universe.

When I had my cards read I was told I was going through a shift. I think this is it.

Her date went well. She said he was very sweet a gentleman & that she thinks she'll be seeing him again.

She hasn't told her bro as she hasn't spoken to him for days. Again...interesting...when he's out of the picture how things go we for her. She's blocking us, he's blocking her. We all need option space to welcome new relationship's & allow them to grow, even her brother & I.

Interesting

More manifesting.

I have lots of bills to pay. I knew they were coming & was thinking the best way to pay them all. I've been trying to manifest abundance more money.

Tonight I found out a show I'd booked was cancelled and they are refunding tickets.

Thank you Universe 🙏
