Over the past few months, The Secret has captured worldwide attention. People are fascinated with the idea of manifesting their realities, and want to put these methodologies into practice. Unfortunately, many people are not finding the results they hoped for, although earnestly giving it a shot. The Secret was meant to be an introduction - a beginner's course. What I would like to do here are highlight a few more aspects of the manifesting process that will deeply affect your level of success.
The first of these is your overall energy level. The higher your energy, the higher your vibration, and the stronger your manifestation abilities will be. The level of your energy is also the prime factor in how fast your manifestations occur. The most important thing you can do for yourself is to learn to raise energy. So how do you do this?
First, let's look at external factors that can make a huge difference on your energy levels. The most important of these is diet. The food we have available to us today is generally horrible for our energy. What lends us energy is fresh, living matter, such as organic fruits and vegetables. Meat makes our energy denser, but is not nearly as bad as "fake" foods - candy, processed garbage, etc. Much of what we consider "snacks" are purely detrimental to our bodies and to our energy.
The next thing to do for your energy is to actually consciously raise energy in your body. You have several energy storage facilities in your etheric body, but all you need to focus on is the sub-naval area, which when filled will begin filling the other areas. You can learn all you need to know about the process of energy raising in Robert Bruce's free online resource, NEW Energy Ways.
The higher your energy, the more effect your thoughts, feelings and intentions will have and the faster your desires will manifest. Get into a high enough energy vibration, and you will watch your desires manifest almost immediately. Of course this takes time, patience, and practice, but is well worth the work!
The next important factor is the ability to focus, or concentrate, as you work on your intent. There is an easy way to create this focus, and I will share it with you now. The third eye, which is the energy center focused in between your eyebrows, is the chakra that opens to your inner self. The other chakras primarily deal with the physical world. This chakra is your doorway inside, to the etheric, astral, and mental dimensions. You don't have to bother with any of that to be effective at using this chakra to enhance your concentration. What you want to do is to become aware of the area between your eyebrows. Don't look in that direction with your physical eyes, just become aware of that area. Touch it first, or rub it lightly to get a sense of the area, then just be aware of it. You will notice a slight tingling, or pressure, as you do this. Now, practice remaining aware of this area in your meditation, or even as you proceed in your daily life. What you will notice when you begin to work on intentions for manifesting, is that if you keep a slight awareness between your eyebrows as you concentrate, your mental chatter will go away. You will find it much easier to concentrate on one thought, one image, one intention, for a longer period of time as long as you also maintain an awareness of this tingling sensation between the eyebrows. That is the magic of the third eye.
For the very best information about third eye work and spiritual growth from a practical, rather than intellectual basis, see the Clairvision School's website at www.ClairVision.org
, specifically the book Awakening the Third Eye.
Finally, a very important factor to consider is persistence. You must persist, persist, persist! While researching some hypnosis and NLP CDs online, I noticed an interesting trend. All of them advised using their CDs once a day for 21 days. As I began searching for information on this "21 day rule", I found that brain research indicated that in order for new neural pathways to be formed in the brain, the brain needed to be exposed to new information for 21 days straight. After doing a little more research, I found information claiming that the subconscious regularly flushes information every 2-3 days while in the dream state. This is why people who get hypnotised to quit smoking often do well for 2-3 days, then regress. The subconscious is flushing out the new pattern. So remaining exposed for 21 days guarantees a new habit, and imprints the subconscious permanently with the new pattern.
When doing manifestation intention work, keep to it for at least 21 days. The most important thing you can do is impress upon your subconscious what you want, as your subconscious has the greatest, fastest power in the manifestation of the world around you. If you get your subconscious to believe something, then it will become true for you. Making it stick is the tricky part. The solution appears to be the 21 day rule.
Hopefully these tips will assist you in getting better results from your practice with the Law of Attraction, and all the laws shown in The Secret. Remember, above all, keep it fun! The unfolding of life should be a fun, happy experiment, and the more you can keep a good feeling, the better things will unfold for you. Be patient as old patterns flush out, and be aware that each time you seem to be taking a step backward, you are clearing the path to go forward.
Good luck, and happy manifesting!
