Manifestation Simplified: Awareness and the Art of Being (Part 2)
Share
Welcome back to the journey of simplifying manifestation. In Part 1, we explored how awareness is the true "easy button" and how alignment is the key to manifestation, not effort. Now, let’s take things a step further by diving into the practical side of manifestation: how to consciously direct your awareness, embody alignment, and take inspired action that feels natural and effortless.
Directing Your Awareness
Your awareness is your greatest tool, and learning to direct it intentionally can transform your reality. The key here is to focus on what you want, rather than what you don’t want. While that might sound obvious, it’s easy to get caught up in thoughts of lack or frustration without even realizing it.
Here’s a simple exercise to help redirect your awareness:
- Pause and Observe: Take a moment to notice your thoughts. Are they aligned with what you want to create, or are they reinforcing what you’d rather avoid?
- Shift Your Focus: If your thoughts are focused on lack, gently shift them toward abundance. For example, instead of thinking, “I don’t have enough time,” try, “I have all the time I need to accomplish what matters most.”
- Anchor in Gratitude: Gratitude is a powerful way to align with abundance. Spend a few moments each day reflecting on what you’re grateful for, no matter how small. Gratitude shifts your awareness toward the positive and opens the door for more to flow into your life.
Embodying Alignment
It’s important to know that as you consistently focus your awareness and embody alignment, these practices become second nature. Over time, the feelings, thoughts, and actions you consciously cultivate will integrate into your subconscious, becoming a natural part of who you are. This is when manifestation begins to flow effortlessly because your internal state aligns seamlessly with your desires.
Once you’ve directed your awareness, the next step is to embody the energy of what you want. This means living as though your desire has already manifested, not in a way that feels forced or fake, but in a way that feels natural and aligned.
Here are three steps to help you embody alignment:
- Feel the Feelings: Imagine how it would feel to have your desire fulfilled. What emotions would you experience? Joy? Peace? Excitement? Let yourself fully embrace those feelings now, as if they’re already yours.
- Take Aligned Actions: Pay attention to any inspired actions that arise naturally. These are the steps that feel good, not forced. For example, if you’re manifesting a new job, you might feel inspired to update your resume or reach out to a connection—not because you “should” but because it feels right.
- Align Your Environment: Your surroundings can influence your energy. Create an environment that reflects the energy of what you want to attract. If you’re manifesting abundance, clear out clutter and make space for new opportunities to flow in.
Inspired Action vs. Forced Effort
A common question about manifestation is, “Do I just sit back and wait, or do I need to take action?” The answer lies in inspired action—action that flows naturally from your alignment, rather than effort driven by fear or lack.
Here’s how to recognize inspired action:
- It feels exciting and energizing.
- It arises spontaneously, often as an intuitive nudge or idea.
- It doesn’t feel like a chore or obligation.
For example, if you’re manifesting better health, an inspired action might be trying a new recipe or going for a walk because it feels enjoyable, not because you’re forcing yourself to “be healthy.” Trust these nudges and follow them without overthinking.
Trusting the Process
One of the hardest parts of manifestation is letting go of control and trusting the process. It’s natural to want to know exactly how and when your desire will show up, but this need for control can create resistance. Instead, focus on staying aligned and letting the universe handle the details.
Here’s a practice to help you build trust:
- Affirm Your Faith: Repeat affirmations like, “Everything is unfolding perfectly for me,” or, “I trust that what I desire is on its way.”
- Celebrate Small Wins: Notice and appreciate the small manifestations that show up along the way. These are signs that you’re on the right track.
- Release the “How”: Remind yourself that it’s not your job to figure out how your desire will manifest. Your job is to stay aligned and open to receiving.
A New Way of Being
Manifestation isn’t about chasing goals or checking items off a list. It’s about becoming the version of yourself who naturally attracts what you desire. By directing your awareness, embodying alignment, and taking inspired action, you’re not just creating a new reality—you’re becoming the creator of your life.
Take a moment to reflect: What small shifts can you make today to align with the life you want? Perhaps it’s as simple as focusing on gratitude, following an inspired nudge, or trusting that the process is already underway.
Remember, manifestation is not something you do. It’s something you are. And you’re already more powerful than you realize. Trust in yourself, trust in the process, and watch as your desires unfold effortlessly.
