You're listening to the Manifestation Station podcast.
0:11
I'm your host Holly Edwards and together we can help create your magic.
0:22
Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Manifestation Station.
0:28
I am your host Holly Edwards, your manifesting guru.
0:32
Am I a guru? I don't know. I definitely know how to manifest.
0:35
I've manifested some amazing things
0:40
into my life I've had amazing synchronicities
0:44
things where you go my dreams my
0:48
wants my desires have jumped off of my vision board
0:51
and into my reality and that is
0:54
why I decided to bring you this podcast because
0:57
I want to share this
1:01
positivity with you and if you're
1:04
if you've only just tuned in for the very very
1:07
first time firstly where have you been
1:10
we've all been manifesting together but it's fine welcome
1:14
I'm glad you've joined us today but the
1:17
reason I love sharing everything manifesting
1:21
is because you can see how it changes lives when I work with people when I speak
1:27
to friends family colleagues clients about manifesting and simple tools that
1:34
they can use to improve their lives.
1:38
You can see the energy changing them.
1:41
You can see the results change for the better.
1:45
And why would I not want to share that with everyone? I think everyone has the
1:50
ability to manifest and everyone has the ability to live their dream life and
1:56
you shouldn't be settling you shouldn't just be settling for mediocre.
2:01
And you, there is also, I always say, there is no limit to what you can manifest.
2:06
So if I can help you just shed that little bit of light, that little bit of
2:11
hope, that little bit of positivity, I promise you, you will see changes in your life.
2:17
Even if you just feel a more calm, present, happier version of you.
2:23
If you do that, you'll already start manifesting without even trying.
2:27
That's what I think is mind-blowing.
2:30
Anyway, so welcome back. We are here in a slightly showery UK at the moment.
2:38
We've had some lovely weather. We're now having showers all over the place.
2:42
I am recording this on Thursday, the 4th of June. It is coming out tomorrow into your inboxes.

3:06
So please do subscribe. But also it's nice because you get a little alert saying, hey, new episode.
3:13
And maybe that might just land in your lap at the perfect time.
3:17
I think last week or the week before, I did an episode about how your life could
3:23
look so different one year from now.
3:26
And I had so many messages from you guys going, I really felt this spoke to me.
3:31
Or I really felt like I was meant to see this today.
3:34
And that's the universe bringing us together, the law of attraction,
3:39
dropping things, opportunities or synchronicities into your lap at the perfect, perfect moment.
3:46
So I hope that the universe has brought me to you and thank you for coming to
3:51
me and listening to the manifestation station.
3:54
Now, in the week, I put out a post on Instagram and I said, hey guys,
4:00
this episode today is all about you.
4:03
I put out a post saying if you have anything specific that you would like me
4:08
to answer, then please DM me.
4:11
And so many of you have, and that's what we're doing today. I am answering your
4:16
manifesting questions.
4:18
I don't really have any notes. I normally note down things that I want to touch
4:23
upon in the episode, but we're just going to go, we're going to totally freestyle together.
4:29
I'm going to read your questions out and answer them as best as I can.
4:33
So, hopefully, I will answer your question.
4:38
So, you'll have to bear with me because I'm going to get these up on my phone.
4:41
So, it might be a little bit more disjointed today, but I like it.
4:45
We're flowing, aren't we?
4:47
So, the first question, now, I'm not going to read out names of who sent these
4:50
just in case you would like to remain anonymous.
4:54
The first question is how to
4:57
keep consistent question mark I love
5:00
doing mood boards visualizing etc but find
5:03
it hard to add things daily well well well well thank you very much for this
5:10
question now I actually get asked this question a lot and it comes up a lot
5:15
in my one-to-one manifesting sessions with my clients a lot of people say oh
5:20
do you know what I find it really hard and I think what happens right?
5:23
A lot of the time is that people go,
5:27
right, they get a wave of like motivation to go, right, I'm going to manifest.
5:31
And they'll go and do a vision board and then they'll do their affirmations
5:35
and then they'll start their journaling.
5:37
And then they'll start, I don't
5:38
know, waking up at 5am and having a power hour morning of meditation.
5:43
And what can happen is that motivation always,
5:47
even in myself, like as a manifesting coach and the most amazing manifestors
5:52
and the most motivated people, what happens is we go through waves of feeling
5:57
motivated and then demotivated.
6:00
And what can happen is that if you're trying to do so many things once with
6:04
manifesting and with mindset, then you might have three days of doing all of
6:09
these things and journaling and decluttering and, you know, feng shui in your house.
6:14
And then after three days, you're exhausted. You're exhausted and you kind of
6:18
feel like, oh, it's not working.
6:20
I've actually got a friend I've spoken about before and she loves manifesting.
6:24
She loves manifesting she has manifested before but
6:28
generally on the whole her pattern is right right
6:31
right right today I'm going to get into it and
6:34
they go a hundred percent in like I've just explained trying
6:37
to do a million things at once they're like yeah yeah this is great and
6:40
I'm proactive and I'm doing this after a
6:43
few days or a week they're like it's not working no I've crashed
6:46
and burned and the thing is this is
6:48
how I can answer this question do not
6:52
overwhelm yourself and I say this to my
6:54
clients I give homework I give manifesting homework
6:57
to my clients but one one of
7:00
my clients recently I actually said I'm not giving you any more things to do
7:05
one of your things that I want you to do is do a bit less and she laughed and
7:10
I said the problem is is sometimes we reach this even let's call it like a self-improvement
7:16
burnout if you're like me you like self-improvement,
7:19
improving your mindset, manifesting, law of attraction.
7:22
If you try to do too much at once, you can get burnout.
7:27
So in terms of answering this question, how to stay consistent.
7:31
It's actually the smallest
7:35
steps and the smallest tools that are
7:38
if implemented consistently they will
7:42
automatically improve your life and then
7:45
day after day that gets a little bit stronger week after
7:49
week one month after month year after year
7:52
your life will look completely different even if
7:55
you're only doing two or three small manifesting
7:59
steps but consistently so I bang
8:02
on all the time to people when I'm coaching it's about
8:05
consistency it's kind of quality
8:09
over quantity and don't overburden yourself
8:12
so I think one of
8:15
the biggest mistakes that people can make with manifesting is turning it into
8:19
a huge huge complicated routine so you know like I've explained before imagine
8:25
you're writing your gratitude list you're visualizing you're pulling cards you're
8:29
drinking moon water before breakfast you're bound to get burnout.
8:35
Nobody can sustain that now I've been manifesting for
8:38
about 20 years and I probably did try tried to overdo it at the start because
8:44
I was so excited about it so it was a bit more that it came in waves I'd do
8:48
it like really strong for a couple of months and I'd read the books and and
8:52
then I'd lay off it a bit and I'd go oh I really need to get back into that manifesting and,
8:56
Whereas now I have learned generally that it's more of a lifestyle,
9:01
but it's just small, consistent steps and it's built up through simplicity.
9:06
So if all you did every day was spend two minutes connecting with your future
9:13
self, that would be more powerful than doing an hour of manifestation routine once a month.
9:19
Growth so just two minutes a day two minutes a day visualizing or two minutes
9:25
at the end of your day doing a gratitude list but if you did that every day
9:31
I guarantee you life would change,
9:34
and once they become a habit so you know
9:37
there's a really there's a there's an amazing book called Atomic
9:40
Habits I can't remember who the author is you're probably shouting it
9:43
at me I think it's something like is it like 12 weeks for a habit to set in
9:49
so if you do your gratitude or whatever it is that you decide to do for two
9:52
minutes a day within 12 weeks that becomes a habit anyway and you can implement
9:58
something new or maybe like two things at a time maybe a set of affirmations and gratitude.
10:04
Keep it simple. Keep it sweet. One of the biggest things I could say about being
10:09
consistent is just to be present.
10:12
So being present and noticing the beauty around you, which is kind of ties into our gratitude.
10:18
It's about like romanticizing your life, romanticizing the ordinary.
10:23
If every day you can find beauty in every day, that's manifesting.
10:27
That is really, really powerful.
10:29
And from there, you can start to focus on what it is you want to manifest because
10:35
you're already going to be on quite a good frequency.
10:38
So make it easy for yourself. Don't overload yourself.
10:43
Don't get yourself to emotional or mental burnout or this self-improvement burnout. Make it easy.
10:51
Choose one affirmation, just one. Choose an affirmation or create an affirmation
10:57
that works for you, that resonates with you, that resonates with your goal or
11:03
who you want to be and just choose one.
11:05
And maybe repeat that affirmation every day. Maybe repeat it in the morning, repeat it at night.
11:12
Now, any of you who are struggling to stay consistent, you cannot, you cannot fail at that.
11:19
It's so simple. It's about setting yourself such simple tasks that you cannot, you cannot fail.
11:28
Another thing you could do is choose your one affirmation, perhaps just write
11:33
down three things that you're grateful for, or say them aloud.
11:36
Or maybe you could just ask yourself, this is kind of choosing one of these things.
11:42
Ask yourself, what would my future self do today? That's enough.
11:46
That's enough. I'm giving you permission to do less. In fact,
11:50
I am shouting at you and telling you it's okay to do less.
11:55
The other thing that helps me stay consistent is remembering that manifestation isn't something I do.
12:03
It's who I am. So like I said before, I think it was very much something that
12:09
I had to consciously say, right, oh my gosh, I haven't been doing much of that
12:12
manifesting work. I better jump in. I better do a vision board.
12:16
I better do some affirmations. I better do my gratitude. it's
12:20
who I am now so I've
12:23
created it I've turned it I've brought
12:26
it into my life into something that it's a lifestyle and it's who I am so it's
12:32
like brushing your teeth it isn't a task you need motivation for it's just a
12:37
part of your identity it's just what you do it's trying to seek out the positive
12:42
instead of the negative.
12:45
And manifesting, it can become the same thing.
12:48
So instead of asking, how do I stay motivated? How do I stay consistent?
12:54
Ask, how do I become someone who naturally thinks this way?
12:59
And it's those, honestly, I promise you, it's those little consistent steps that make it.
13:05
And here's the truth of it. Missing one day doesn't matter.
13:09
Missing one week doesn't matter. Even missing a month doesn't matter.
13:13
What matters is coming back to it.
13:16
You can restart at any moment. So if you do feel like you fall off of the manifesting
13:21
wagon, a lot of people go, oh God, I've got to start again.
13:25
It didn't work. Here we go. I grabbed my books out again.
13:29
It's not starting again it's jumping back in
13:32
so you don't have to get to day 47 and
13:35
lose all of your manifestation points because you had a difficult
13:38
week you simply jump back on and that's the thing is that the most successful
13:44
manifestors aren't people who do it perfectly they are the people who return
13:49
to it over and over again so I hope that answers your question thank you very
13:57
much for writing that one in.
13:58
I hear that one a lot. So I definitely wanted to answer that one.
14:01
The next question I received was, let's have a look, scroll, scroll, scroll.
14:08
Please, Holly, have you got any advice on manifesting? Do I focus on one goal or a few at a time?
14:16
It's interesting, this one, because actually there really isn't a limit into
14:21
how many things that you can manifest.
14:24
It's actually about whether you can give focus to each one.
14:28
So there's no limit. You can be manifesting love. You could be manifesting a dream home.
14:36
You can manifest a new job, an abundance of money.
14:40
You can manifest multiple things. Absolutely.
14:45
The universe doesn't look at your list and go, whoa, whoa, whoa,
14:48
that is too many requests. But, there is a but in here.
14:53
What I find in answer, it kind of ties me into our previous question, is that.
14:59
You don't want to overwhelm yourself. Now, if you do a vision board,
15:05
it's lovely to put everything on your vision board, but if you are trying to
15:09
manifest multiple things at a time,
15:12
then that can reach, that can get to a point of this, like I said,
15:18
this kind of development.
15:20
Self-development burnout.
15:22
So what I would do, something that I would advise you to do is to pick,
15:31
like this week, to pick three things.
15:33
What are your top three things you'd like to manifest?
15:36
And already me saying that out loud, it just feels like it simplifies everything.
15:43
So rather than being scrambled in your brain, need a dream home,
15:47
need the money, need the promotion,
15:48
need the love of my life you know want to manifest a baby want
15:51
to manifest promotion whatever it is that feels
15:55
scrambled in my head that feels messy now
15:58
when your head is messy it's hard to get clarity because
16:02
we're kind of sending out mixed signals to the universe because actually what
16:05
we're probably saying is oh this really stresses me out I've got too many things
16:09
that are in need of help and that can become that you are perhaps jumping on
16:14
a frequency of lack And when we manifest from a place of lack,
16:18
the law of attraction says that we just attract back more lack and things,
16:24
you know, that make us feel as though we are lacking in that area.
16:28
So just simplify.
16:33
Focus, like I said, on this week, focus on your top three things you'd like to manifest.
16:37
And what this also does, it helps you to get into the mindset of firstly,
16:44
clearing out the clutter. So we're decluttering our brain and our mental load.
16:48
The next thing it does is that we're kind of really sitting with our thoughts
16:53
and our wants and our dreams.
16:55
And it helps us to get clarity and to get clear on what it is that we do really
17:01
want and what are our priorities. And so we're going to get into the mindset of the clutter.
17:03
You know, you're also living, you have a life, you have a job,
17:07
you have children, you have a family to maintain.
17:10
So that is already keeping you busy. So how can we simplify this?
17:16
Let's get really real and say, what is our priority at the moment?
17:19
What are our top three things?
17:21
So instead of obsessing over 10 different goals every day, just hone in on those top three things.
17:28
But just generally, don't overwhelm yourself
17:31
focus on becoming the version of
17:33
you who naturally experiences those things in
17:36
their every day and by simplifying
17:40
like I said you get clarity you have more mental space to focus on those three
17:45
things and to implement like and align your actions with those top three things
17:51
as well otherwise you're spreading yourself so thinly that you might go oh it's
17:56
not working and you're going to throw in the towel.
17:59
So I hope that is helpful. I hope that answers your question.
18:02
Thank you very much for that one.
18:03
The next question is how to manage worrying about loved ones.
18:10
That's an interesting question, actually, because that can also burden our minds.
18:16
You know, it's hard enough, isn't it, trying to keep our
18:19
own energies up and to keep ourselves on
18:22
a high vibration and to keep ourselves manifesting and
18:25
positive but of course it's natural to worry about loved ones it's natural to
18:31
want to try and also fix them and their lives and make sure that they're okay
18:36
but ultimately it's simplifying it again and it's coming back to you now in the present we have to.
18:45
Manifesting is very much about how we live
18:48
in the present and if we are constantly worrying
18:51
about things that may not ever happen we
18:55
are kind of attracting that same kind of energy
18:57
back into our life so all we can really deal
19:01
with is what is right in front of us right now and
19:04
what am I able to control so unfortunately
19:08
we don't really have the power to control everything
19:11
in the lives of our loved ones as well we can
19:15
certainly guide them be supportive of
19:18
them and I often get asked questions of how can I
19:20
get my loved ones or how can I get my partner into
19:24
manifesting and into this same mindset and ultimately
19:27
you can't force them you can guide you
19:31
can inspire but you have
19:34
to focus on you and what is in your present hopefully you will become like a
19:40
magnet and people will see your energy and be drawn to your energy and then
19:46
that might hopefully help them to go on their own self-development journey.
19:52
But if we are constantly worrying about things that might never happen,
19:57
and in fact, I've given you a statistic before that the average person has 60,000 thoughts a day.
20:05
I think it's something like, oh, I haven't got the stats in front of me.
20:08
I think it's something like 85% of those thoughts are deemed to be negative.
20:13
And then there's another statistic that goes with it. And it's something like
20:17
80% of the things that we worry about never even happen.
20:21
So that is just wasted energy floating around in your brain,
20:25
floating around in your invisible energy field that the law of attraction is
20:29
attracting into your life like you are a giant magnet.
20:33
So it's like I always say that, you know, people think, oh my God, what if it all fails?
20:40
What if my loved one isn't well? what if what if
20:43
I can't fix them but also what if it goes right so all
20:46
you can do is concentrate on you keep your
20:49
energy safe and protected work on
20:52
your manifesting journey and inspire and
20:55
support those around you but it's wasted
20:59
energy constantly worrying about other people
21:02
and things that we can't fix that are out of
21:05
our control I hope that
21:08
is in some way I hope that answers your
21:11
question next one how do I know if manifesting is actually working this is a
21:18
great question actually and it's probably a question I get asked an awful lot
21:23
the truth is that most people think their manifestation is only working when
21:29
they get that one thing that they want.
21:31
Like, you know, like the end goal, the dream house, the relationship,
21:36
the money, the promotion.
21:38
But actually, manifestation usually starts way, way, way, way before that.
21:44
And this is why I love manifesting. And it's one of the things that I will bang on about.
21:50
It's very much about the journey and not just the end goal.
21:53
Because I guarantee you, when you get the dream home, when you get the relationship,
21:57
when you get the money, when you get the promotion, it doesn't end there.
22:00
There are always things that we are wanting more and
22:03
actually it's that there's a very good quote and I can't remember
22:06
how eloquently it is put but it's
22:09
about saying that remember where you are right now is something that
22:12
you once manifested but you may still be feeling
22:15
a bit like well there's still things that I want so manifestation is very much
22:21
about the journey and I love it Because actually there are so many exciting
22:29
things that you can look for to see if manifestation is working.
22:33
So, for example, you'll start seeing signs.
22:38
You'll start seeing signs, even if, like I said at the start,
22:41
you're just doing these small, consistent steps daily. Right.
22:46
The signs are you will start to feel more hopeful and actually that statement
22:51
there I think is the most biggest achievement and the biggest result you could
22:56
get because life doesn't feel as heavy.
23:00
Life feels hopeful, you have excitement for the future.
23:04
That in itself is absolute gold.
23:07
You also start getting new ideas, you feel inspired, you meet unexpected people.
23:14
These are all signs that your manifesting is working long before you get that end goal.
23:21
You may feel pulled towards more opportunities or perhaps you'll receive an
23:27
email or a call from someone that's like an opportunity out of the blue.
23:31
These are not coincidences. These are because you have decided to jump on that correct frequency.
23:38
The other thing that happens all the time, it's one of my favorite things in
23:42
manifesting is that you'll notice synchronicities.
23:45
Now, synchronicities are huge in the universe. It's, you know,
23:49
synchronicities are where you are, you know, perhaps you're talking about something
23:54
or someone and that person might message you the following day and you go, that's really weird.
24:00
I was thinking of you yesterday or I was going to message you.
24:03
The law of attraction has brought it to you. It's kind of aligned your thoughts and actions.
24:09
But other things as well, like I might be thinking of something totally random
24:13
in my head and then I'll see it the following day.
24:17
It could be signs, it could be people, it could be text messages,
24:21
it could be an old film that I was reminiscing about and then it had suddenly
24:25
comes on the telly the next day.
24:28
These are all signs and synchronicities to show the universe is like showing
24:34
you yes you're on the right track the universe has got your back I'm showing
24:38
you that I'm here I'm listening and you are in tune and that feels really really really exciting and,
24:47
I think the biggest sign manifestation is working. It's often that you start
24:51
becoming a different version of yourself before your circumstances change.
24:57
And that is huge. You already start becoming that future version of you.
25:02
So you don't feel, it's like you feel different. You feel like you're in these new shoes.
25:08
You feel like you are making waves. You feel like you're unstoppable.
25:12
It's like you're a person that expects good things to happen for you.
25:16
The version of you who already has the dream life, who doesn't spend every day
25:20
wondering if it's coming because you are walking around with hope,
25:23
with inspiration, with opportunities coming to you.
25:26
So you naturally find yourself becoming calmer, more trusting,
25:31
more confident, and that's often the manifestation happening beneath the surface.
25:39
Somebody else has asked why isn't
25:42
my manifestation here yet well I know
25:46
this can be a frustrating part when it comes to manifestation but
25:50
you have to remember with manifestation we.
25:54
Put an order into the universe we have to align
25:57
our energies we have to jump
26:00
onto that right frequency now just because your manifestation
26:03
isn't here yet firstly doesn't mean
26:06
that it's not coming and remember the end
26:10
goal the happiness doesn't arrive when the
26:13
thing arrives the happiness arrives on the
26:15
journey in answer to my previous question sometimes things
26:19
are happening behind the scenes that you can't see and
26:22
that is the trust that you need to have in the universe you have to
26:25
trust that things people opportunities are
26:29
falling into into place behind the
26:32
scenes that you aren't able to see yet but things
26:35
have to line up it's not going to be instant it's
26:38
not going to necessarily arrive in your lap the following day
26:41
you put your order
26:44
in and you walk around trusting believing it's on
26:47
the way the universe has to go and make arrangements for you
26:50
to bring the right people into your life to bring the right
26:53
opportunities for you to be in the right location at the
26:56
right time that can't all happen in 24 hours so it's about keeping in the present
27:03
making sure that you are having your gratitude and that you are finding gratitude
27:08
in every day carry on going and trusting that things are happening behind the
27:13
scenes that you can't even see yet,
27:16
So I hope that answers your question. Thank you very much for that one.
27:20
Next question. What if I have negative thoughts?
27:24
Well, well, well, well, I am here to tell you, you will have negative thoughts.
27:30
You will have days where you feel negative. You will have days where you feel down in the dumps.
27:36
One negative thought isn't cancelling your manifestation. Neither is one bad day.
27:42
So you're allowed to be human. You have a life. It is unrealistic.
27:46
Even the most amazing manifestors.
27:50
We're not walking through life, skipping around, singing every single day,
27:55
like every moment of the day.
27:57
So manifestation isn't about having negative thoughts.
28:00
And I actually think manifestation is about welcoming those negative thoughts
28:06
because you are going to have them.
28:08
It's a fact of life. I promise you, you are going to have them,
28:10
but it's about not letting them sink so deeply that actually you decide to carry
28:16
them around for the next day, the following week, the following month.
28:22
And that turns into you just constantly carrying it around in your emotional backpack.
28:27
This is about embracing those negative thoughts. Yes, sometimes you're going
28:30
to, I don't know, feel down for no reason.
28:33
Maybe you've got something in particular going on that is really causing you
28:37
to think more negatively.
28:40
Welcome those thoughts. Don't be scared of them.
28:43
If we're scared of them and we say, oh, we're not allowed to feel negative,
28:46
it's going to ruin or undo all of our good manifesting work.
28:49
What that's actually showing is that we fear our
28:52
emotions and that we're saying actually I'm so
28:55
scared of this negativity that I don't want to face it you're
28:58
telling the universe no no no this is a problem rather than
29:01
going it's fine I'm cool with that you
29:04
know when you're feeling negative the one thing I say to do is to look after
29:09
yourself treat yourself with kindness allow yourself to sit in that emotion
29:14
for a while whether it's an hour whether it's that day or if it is a couple
29:18
of days but then then there comes a point to go do you know what now I've,
29:25
I've sat with these emotions. I've tried to figure out if there is anything
29:30
I can physically do that will improve my mood.
29:34
I'm kind to myself. I don't overdo it. I don't overload myself.
29:39
I don't talk to myself negatively saying, why haven't you done your to-do list today?
29:43
You didn't do that well enough today. I'm kind to myself.
29:47
And I do the very basics of what I can achieve. That's what I do,
29:53
even if I don't attack my to-do list.
29:56
And then at some point, when you're kind to yourself and you do little things
30:01
that might make you smile, that you can gently push that emotion back out.
30:07
So I always say it's like welcoming an old friend.
30:10
You let negativity through the door, they're allowed to stay for a cup of tea,
30:14
you can put a blanket over them, make them feel nice, and then it's time for
30:18
you to move on and they can go.
30:20
So we're not scared of it, We're acknowledging it, we're noticing the negative
30:23
thoughts, and then we redirect ourselves.
30:27
Consistency matters more than perfection. So it's getting into a pattern as
30:31
well as of feeling those emotions, not being scared by them,
30:35
and then quietly moving on.
30:38
I hope that is helpful.
30:41
Is this our last question? No, perhaps we've got one or two more.
30:45
What's the biggest mistake when manifesting
30:49
it's a good question there are a
30:52
few things there's there's the rushing and
30:55
impatience of going it hasn't happened yet so therefore I'm going to throw out
30:59
all of this work that I've done it's not happening and that's it's having that
31:04
trust that your journey your timeline will unravel at the exact right moment
31:10
the other mistake I think people sometimes make is weighting,
31:15
They're waiting to live. They're waiting to feel confident. They're waiting
31:19
to start the business. They're waiting to post online.
31:22
They're waiting to become worthy.
31:26
Manifestation works best when you become an active participant in your life
31:31
and you start doing the thing.
31:33
We're not waiting for the perfect time.
31:36
I even hear people saying, must get into that manifesting again.
31:39
I'll start, you know next week you can start now start
31:42
right now pick an affirmation do two minutes of
31:45
gratitude pause me and give three things that you are grateful for today you
31:50
don't need every answer you don't need every step you just need to start when
31:55
you start doing something whether you start working on your passion you start
32:00
exercising you start dressing the way you've always wanted to dress.
32:04
Your energy will change and the universe will respond to that.
32:09
Let's pick one last question here.
32:15
We've got a couple that are quite similar.
32:20
Let's finish with this one. What's one
32:23
manifestation tip everyone should start today
32:26
well there's lots
32:30
of things you could start today but I always
32:33
say if you kind of stripping it back sometimes when you are having a little
32:37
bit of a wobble or you're going through a bit of a funny time sometimes I just
32:41
say do you know what let's start at the basics start the basics firstly the
32:46
one thing I would do is become aware of your thoughts and that's it. Become aware.
32:53
Notice if you're churning out lots of negative thoughts, negative self-talk,
32:59
judgment on other people that feels negative.
33:02
Just become aware of that.
33:05
And change the narrative. So become aware, oh, I'm churning out quite a lot
33:09
of negative thoughts. Tune into your subconscious.
33:12
Think about the thoughts and the words that you are putting out and put in like a circuit breaker.
33:19
Stop those thoughts in its track and replace it with something positive.
33:22
If you do that for a few days, you will start to shift your mindset because
33:28
actually you might be operating your subconscious on just a general default
33:33
negativity kind of frequency.
33:35
So that's the very first thing I would do. The other thing that you could do is gratitude.
33:40
We talk about it all the time. We hear about it all the time.
33:43
I've talked about it before and I said I used to think it was a bit wishy-washy.
33:47
I promise you it is so huge.
33:50
If you do one thing and you start giving gratitude, I promise you life will
33:54
change. I promise you you'll start to feel better.
33:56
I promise you some good things will come into your life as a result.
34:00
So that's one of the things you could do.
34:02
And one other thing that you could start to do is start acting like your future self would.
34:08
So not in a fake way, not in a reckless way, but just ask yourself throughout
34:13
the day the one question, what would future me do? What would future me do today?
34:18
Future me who already has received my desire, how would they speak today?
34:23
How would they show up? How would they spend their time?
34:26
Who would they hang out with? That question has changed my life probably more
34:31
than any manifestation technique.
34:33
Manifestation isn't just about attracting, remember, it's about becoming.
34:40
Becoming that future version of you. Remember I said it's about the journey
34:44
and not just your end goal.
34:46
So that is your questions answered, everyone. I hope you feel like you've had
34:52
those questions answered.
34:53
Of course, I always welcome you. If you want to slide into my DMs,
34:57
you're more than welcome. If I can answer anyone's questions or I'll sometimes
35:01
take them into account and I'll do an episode on them, then I will.
35:06
And I love hearing from you. You know that. My Instagram is at the hollyedwards
35:10
and at the dot manifestation station.
35:13
And if there is one thing you take from today's episode, it's that your manifestations
35:18
aren't created in one giant moment.
35:22
They are created through hundreds of tiny consistent moments,
35:27
tiny choices, tiny thoughts,
35:31
tiny actions, tiny shifts in
35:34
your energy and they're all consistent
35:37
so stop looking for evidence that it's not
35:40
working start looking for the evidence that
35:43
it is because often the person you're becoming is the very proof that your manifestation
35:49
is already on the way so guys if you know someone that leaves a little bit of
35:55
a boost or perhaps i've answered their question in this please share this episode
35:58
with them or share it on your social media.
36:00
I would love that. Let's share the love, let's share the energy. That's what I love to do.
36:06
And just remember before we go, you are exactly where you're meant to be.
36:13
I'll see you next week. Goodbye.
