When we set a goal for ourselves, we usually create expectations as to what achieving this goal will look like. We become emotionally attached to it and this attachment most likely results in fear. Whenever self doubt comes into play, fear takes our visualization and the accompanying emotions into “what if it doesn’t happen…” mode. Since energy follows attention, focusing on the negative blocks the flow of energy which would fuel that expected manifestation and creates a different and often undesired outcome.
By setting a goal but letting go of the outcome, what it will look like and how we will get there, we remove expectations and resistance. This allows us to be open to whatever comes our way embracing every event as an opportunity that brings us closer to our goal. Keeping focus on a desired goal while being emotionally in tune with it as if it was already happening, begins to manifest it, sometimes in leaps and bounds. It is what being in the flow is about.
This process of manifesting is directly linked to the stream of energy focused on a thought, belief or image. When focus is directed by fear of the unwanted, that which we most fear is manifest. In the same manner when we remove the obstacle of fear and concentrate on what we wish for, that is what becomes our reality. Here gratitude plays an important part.
Removing energetic blocks that keep our mind permanently engaged in fight or flight relaxes the mind, letting go of control and allowing the heart take over the creative process. Heartfelt gratitude fuels desired manifestation.
It is a simple process of cause and effect and it is a choice. This is the free will of religious teachings and it is the underlying creative force of the universe.
And so is the manifesting process of our health. Positive emotions bring balance and wholeness to our being. When we eat what makes us feel healthy and fully enjoy what we are eating, our body optimizes the absorption of nutrients and transforms them into fuel. Practicing in a mindful manner an activity that brings us pleasure and well being, manifests a body that allows us to live life to its fullest.
So still the mind.
Go within and know where it is you truly want to be. How do you want it to feel.
Use your imagination to create that reality.
See it, smell it, notice the details, feel it fully.
Know that it is already happening.
Enjoy the process.
There is nothing more to it.
