Transcript
- 0:07You're listening to the Manifestation Station podcast.
- 0:11I'm your host Holly Edwards and together we can help create your magic.
- 0:22Hello, you gorgeous manifestors and welcome back to another episode of The Manifestation Station.
- 0:29I am your host Holly Edwards. Thank you very much for coming back to join me today.
- 0:33Happy weekend if you are listening in real time. Yes it's the weekend.
- 0:38What are you up to? What are you doing today or are you on your way to work?
- 0:42Anyway I'm here. I'm keeping you company.
- 0:46Now yesterday, now my podcast normally comes out, normally tends to come out
- 0:51on a Friday or a Sunday, depending on what life is throwing at me.
- 0:56And yesterday I was so proud of myself because I recorded a 40 minute podcast
- 1:04and I thought the episode was really juicy.
- 1:07It was about what if and, you know,
- 1:12thinking about opportunities that we may miss out on
- 1:15because we're not living life to the full we're not grabbing opportunities so
- 1:19what if the date that you cancelled might
- 1:22just turn out or that you almost cancelled might turn out
- 1:25to be the love of your life or the event that
- 1:28you don't turn up to maybe that was the event where you were going to meet the
- 1:33most amazing friendship group or something like that or you were going to have
- 1:37the most amazing experience or meet the most amazing person for networking so
- 1:42it was kind of about this idea of I'm very much into.
- 1:48Manifesting kind of, I want to say softly, but I don't mean that's that we don't
- 1:52do any work. I often talk about,
- 1:55doing less and going with the flow and finding the happiness in every day.
- 2:01But this episode was also a little bit about grabbing life by the balls or by
- 2:07the horns, so it were, and living and grabbing opportunities and trusting your
- 2:12gut and pushing yourself sometimes,
- 2:15sometimes out of your comfort zone.
- 2:17Now you may be thinking, well, why is she telling us this? We can just go and listen to the episode.
- 2:23Well, let me tell you, I recorded the 40 minute episode. I did my notes. I did the recording.
- 2:30The recording has disappeared. The software that I use, it says that I recorded
- 2:35something and it is not there.
- 2:38There is no sound. There is nothing.
- 2:41And oh God, I was so disappointed because I thought, I really thought it was a good episode.
- 2:47And I thought, oh, should I record the same thing again today and I thought
- 2:50no I'm going to manifest that somehow that episode find its way I don't know
- 2:57from the cloud into my laptop and maybe I can bring you that one next week.
- 3:02So let's think about maybe I've been redirected. Maybe I wasn't meant to put that episode out today.
- 3:09Maybe. Why would that be? I have no idea why. But you know what?
- 3:13Let's think of the burnt toast theory. There's a reason why it's delayed.
- 3:17There's a reason why it didn't work. I'm just going with that to keep myself safe.
- 3:22So today, instead, I was thinking, what shall I talk to you about today?
- 3:27And actually, it's funny because I spoke about this on the Invisible,
- 3:31Missing, Disappearing podcast that may never make it to your ears.
- 3:36But two days ago, I met my sister for lunch and we had a manifesting day.
- 3:41Now, quite often, when I say a manifesting day, we were shopping,
- 3:45we were mooching around, meeting for a coffee.
- 3:48And what we do is we're very much each other's manifesting buddy.
- 3:52And I've spoken about this before, about how it can be really positive and uplifting
- 3:58to have someone, if you can find someone in your life who is receptive and interested in manifesting,
- 4:07and that you can bounce ideas off of each other.
- 4:10Because even for me, as a manifesting coach and a podcaster.
- 4:15You know, I know the ins and outs of manifesting, but sometimes we know what we need to do.
- 4:20But sometimes we need the kick up the bum or we need that little burst of re-inspiration
- 4:27or just a burst of action or energy or something to get kind of re-interested.
- 4:34And sometimes we just need that spark to be lit again.
- 4:38And sometimes that can just be through a conversation with a friend.
- 4:42It could be checking in with each other and checking in with each other's goals and desires.
- 4:47And sometimes when I think about my goals and things I want to manifest,
- 4:52sometimes, you know, you can be so...
- 4:55In your own desires and fascinating
- 4:59and obsessing over the details and the hows and
- 5:02the whens that your when your manifestation will
- 5:05arrive but actually sometimes like my sister
- 5:08will quite often say well why don't you do this and I'll go that's a
- 5:11great idea so sometimes just a fresh pair of
- 5:14eyes a fresh pair of ears is really handy
- 5:17now so we went for a coffee and
- 5:20we'd had a mooch and we took our notebooks we've
- 5:23got these kind of journals notebooks that sometimes we meet
- 5:26up with we write down our goals our aspirations our
- 5:29manifestations and then we write actionable
- 5:32steps so how can we step closer to achieving those manifestations so we had
- 5:38a little bit of writing in there from last time we've done this which I think
- 5:41was not since Christmas and it's funny because we opened our books and actually
- 5:46we started ticking things off and
- 5:47we were going oh my god Look what you've manifested. Let's tick that off.
- 5:51And the same for me. So that was quite exciting anyway.
- 5:54But then what we did, it's so funny. We sat in this cafe and we were chatting
- 5:59and we were just, you might have this with a friend or a relative,
- 6:02someone that you just don't stop chatting with. So we were like,
- 6:05chat, chat, chat, chat, chat.
- 6:06Then we had about an hour left and we went, should we get our manifesting books
- 6:10out? We probably should, shouldn't we?
- 6:12So we got out our manifesting journals and we looked at each other and suddenly,
- 6:16you know, you get those days when you're suddenly exhausted.
- 6:19We were absolutely drained. We were exhausted. We were happy.
- 6:23We weren't drained, you know, burnt out and miserable.
- 6:25We were happy and content. But sometimes you may find this, that you're not
- 6:30necessarily ready for action or 100% ready to attack your desires,
- 6:37sometimes you're just kind of mellow.
- 6:39And that's okay too, because I think it's actually really important when you're
- 6:43manifesting to one, slightly push yourself sometimes to take action,
- 6:48but also sometimes listen to what your body needs at the time.
- 6:52So if you're feeling more a little bit tired and a little bit lacking in energy,
- 6:58sometimes you can do a softer manifestation.
- 7:01And then other times when you're full of energy and you're raring to go,
- 7:05you get your journal out, you get your vision board, you can update it,
- 7:08you can write your desires, you can send some emails, whatever it is that you want to do.
- 7:14So what we decided to do, and let me take you back to the beginning of the episode
- 7:19here, because it has, I have now made what we did into what our episode is about today. So.
- 7:27Sit tight, get settled because I am here with you. The manifestation station is here with you.
- 7:35So what we started to do was my sister said, she said, should we just draw?
- 7:42Should we just doodle? We had no energy to go, right, let's write bullet points
- 7:47and write our desires down.
- 7:49We said, should we just have a little bit of a doodle today?
- 7:52And actually, all of a sudden I went, oh
- 7:55my god that is a brilliant idea yes let's
- 8:00doodle so all of a sudden that any
- 8:03kind of stresses or anxieties over
- 8:07what I should think about to write and without because let's
- 8:11face it manifestation doesn't thrive when we are
- 8:14forcing things it it thrives when
- 8:17we're in the flow so all of a sudden we
- 8:20started doodling we started drawing little
- 8:23pictures of things that we wanted so it was you
- 8:26know both of ours between us there were houses there were gardens travel clothes
- 8:32energy family feelings and suddenly the whole activity it's it felt different
- 8:39it felt lighter it felt more playful,
- 8:44and somehow it kind of provoked more emotion.
- 8:48There was something in it that was really creative and individual about our
- 8:53drawings for our manifestation.
- 8:55And I think it stopped feeling like work. And some days you might go,
- 9:00oh, it's too much hard work for me to do my manifestations today.
- 9:03And this activity, this tool, it stopped feeling like work. And it started feeling
- 9:09like imagination again.
- 9:11And I genuinely think that that matters so much because manifestation is not
- 9:17supposed to feel like homework.
- 9:19It's not meant to feel like a real hard slog. It's supposed to feel like possibility.
- 9:25And I actually realized something really huge in that moment,
- 9:30that actually some of my strongest,
- 9:34biggest, most successful manifestations have actually happened through drawing.
- 9:41So not scripting, not journaling, not obsessing, but drawing.
- 9:47How simple is that? So this is why I wanted to touch upon this today.
- 9:51And today's episode is all about getting creative with your manifestations.
- 9:58So how adding love, emotion, your imagination, beauty, creativity...
- 10:06And your energy into your desires can make them come alive.
- 10:11You can bring them into reality.
- 10:16So when I was drawing, I was doodling.
- 10:19I didn't have to think too hard about what I wanted to do. And just for the
- 10:22record, if you're sitting here thinking, I'm not an artist, I'm not a good drawer,
- 10:27I'm not a good painter, absolutely fine.
- 10:30Stick people are fine. Little doodles that make sense to you are fine.
- 10:34Now, one thing that I really, really love about this process is there is already
- 10:42something, which I know when I talk about vision boards and when we talk about
- 10:46collaging for vision boards.
- 10:49Getting, now it's like a really amazing fusion between creativity and manifestation.
- 10:56So there is like this beautiful, they go hand in hand with each other.
- 11:01And I think when you are drawing or when you
- 11:04are being creative with your manifestations there is
- 11:07a mindfulness process in there so when
- 11:11you are doodling your brain you're not looking at
- 11:14your phone you're probably not watching
- 11:17the telly you're not preoccupied you it's
- 11:19just you your pen and the page but
- 11:24also it kind of activates your brain and sometimes
- 11:27you may start doodling and start going I don't
- 11:30really know what I'm drawing here but that's okay too
- 11:33just the process you can also I did
- 11:36also write words on between my doodles because I
- 11:39thought is the universe going to know what this picture is that I've just drawn
- 11:42so sometimes I would also fill it out with words whether that was abundance
- 11:46happiness whatever it is that you're looking for but the practice of mindfulness
- 11:51now I believe that when we are creative and we are doing something mindful It
- 11:56is the same as when we're journaling,
- 11:58really, but even more so, I think, when we're drawing and doodling,
- 12:01is that we are mindful.
- 12:04And what happens is that creates space in our brains.
- 12:09And the more that we do this, the more that we got into the process,
- 12:12the more we started relaxing, the more that the drawing started to flow.
- 12:17So I also think it's more than just having fun and drawing and that's great.
- 12:22There is something deeper in it that it provides clarity within your mind.
- 12:27And I always talk about how manifestation, one of the biggest steps that some
- 12:32people aren't doing is being really, really clear on what it is that you want to manifest.
- 12:38And sometimes we struggle to get that clarity.
- 12:42It seems like the most simple thing of all, especially when it comes to manifesting,
- 12:46it seems so simple, but so many of us aren't.
- 12:51Kind of being successful in that first step of clarity.
- 12:55And this is a really good tool to do it. So we're talking about how you can
- 13:00be more creative with your manifestations.
- 13:02So drawing your manifestations, vision boards and collaging,
- 13:07Pinterest with your manifestation, why creativity unlocks clarity and why childlike energy is magnetic,
- 13:16and also how to stop overthinking manifestation and actually start enjoying it again.
- 13:23Now, I will shout from the rooftops that one of the most amazing things that
- 13:27you can do with manifesting is to introduce fun into your processes.
- 13:34Manifestation thrives on fun. Now, when I tell you that
- 13:36my sister and I were sitting as 40-something-year-old women
- 13:42sitting in this cafe with our little kids' books drawing
- 13:45we had gone back to childhood we were
- 13:49having a great time there were people walking past the window we
- 13:52were sat in the window we were laughing because we said it looked
- 13:55like it was a bit of a fishbowl everyone was coming past thinking why are
- 13:58these girls drawing these really weird cartoon pictures in
- 14:01their books and we had a fantastic time and
- 14:04actually what it did is that it raised our
- 14:07vibrations and it increased our energy and our fun factor and our moods as well
- 14:12so that's why I think it's really important to talk about it in this episode
- 14:17and I hope that it will inspire so many people who might even think that they're
- 14:23bad at manifesting and maybe you haven't found your way to really.
- 14:27Find your process that works for you with manifestation and
- 14:31maybe this might be one for you where you go this is amazing and
- 14:34you know what even if you're not a drawer like I said if you're not an
- 14:37artist I really believe
- 14:40that if you try this task you are going to thrive and amazing things are going
- 14:44to happen because maybe manifestation your style isn't writing maybe it's actually
- 14:50creating and doing so let me
- 14:54tell you a little bit of a story that made me believe in this even more.
- 14:57And actually, this is why when I did this two days ago, I thought,
- 15:01why am I not doing this all the time?
- 15:03Because a few years ago, I've been into manifestation for probably about 20 years now.
- 15:09But it was about, actually, it was a while ago now, it was probably about six or seven years ago.
- 15:15I was single and I was living on my own in a flat, paying the bills on my own,
- 15:21very much dating and very, very single in my 30s.
- 15:25And I did a vision board and I stuck loads of pictures that represented things
- 15:31in my life of things that I wanted to manifest.
- 15:33But the main thing, my main focus on something that I really wanted to manifest
- 15:38was my soulmate and my happy ever after. It was meeting the love of my life.
- 15:44And it was kind of just kind of starting that life in a relationship and having
- 15:50the happy ever after of living with someone that I was truly happy with in a
- 15:55really loving relationship.
- 15:57So I don't know why, but for whatever reason, I don't think I could find a picture of a house.
- 16:03And I really wanted this picture of a house on my vision board.
- 16:05And on my vision board, I always like a mixture of words that I've written,
- 16:10things cut out from magazines and things that I have drawn.
- 16:13I think there's something about individuality and the personality and I truly,
- 16:19truly believe I was chatting to someone the other day.
- 16:21You have to be very careful with what you put on your vision board because I
- 16:25promise you, the universe will take things literally.
- 16:28You may put a house on there and think, yeah, that's the kind of house I want to move into.
- 16:32You could move into that very house. So you have to be very specific.
- 16:36Now, I couldn't find a picture of the house or the happy ever after image that
- 16:41I kind of wanted to attract. So I thought, oh, draw it.
- 16:43And I simply got out a permanent markup.
- 16:46And I drew a picture of a house. And it was a really simple,
- 16:52basic kind of picture of a very kind of cottagey house.
- 16:55I drew the windows, the door, a little tree out the side with a lamp post and
- 17:01a little path that went up to the front door.
- 17:04And then I put a couple in the top right window. You may have heard me speak about this before.
- 17:09But in the top right-hand window, I drew a couple, just stick figures.
- 17:14One with long luscious locks thinking
- 17:17that was me and one was who this guy who
- 17:20I didn't know who he was but this was going to be my partner and I
- 17:23drew us in the window waving because I just thought that kind
- 17:26of represents the happy ever after that I'm looking for it's
- 17:30meeting the love of my life moving in with
- 17:32each other and kind of running off into the sunset you
- 17:36know waving out of our little house so when
- 17:40I drew this picture I stuck it on and
- 17:42then like I say the whole vision board was done and I put that vision board away and
- 17:45I carried on living my life I still was very
- 17:48much following the steps of manifesting but you know
- 17:51I wasn't looking at the vision board all the time I just kind of let
- 17:54it be anyway for any of you
- 17:56that do know this feeling it gets even more
- 17:59this story rather this gets even more amazing because what happened is that
- 18:05I think it was probably about 18 months after I did that vision board I went
- 18:10on a first date on a blind first day and I met my now fiance and she.
- 18:18I should say the rest is history, really. We had an amazing start to our relationship.
- 18:24And it just went from strength to strength.
- 18:30And I think it must have been about, we would only been dating for about a year
- 18:35and a half. This is kind of through COVID.
- 18:37And then we moved in with each other.
- 18:40So I was packing up my flat and I was moving in.
- 18:43And it was actually my mum that saw my vision board. And I was bringing it with me.
- 18:47I thought I can't throw that away so I was having a look at it and we both looked
- 18:51at this drawing of the house that I had drawn my little kind of cartoon character
- 18:56drawing when I tell you it.
- 19:01Is identical to the house that I moved in with my partner and the house that
- 19:05I live in now my dream house when I say it was identical even though it was
- 19:10a tiny you know simple cartoon drawing.
- 19:14The layout of the house was the same. The amount of windows and where the windows
- 19:19were and where the door was and where the lamppost was and where the tree was, it was my house.
- 19:23It was this gorgeous country cottage and I had drawn that house and the most
- 19:28amazing thing which still blows my mind to this day was that the top right hand
- 19:35window in our house is actually our master bedrooms.
- 19:38That's where my partner and I sleep and we have a tradition that every time
- 19:42one of us leaves the house, the other one waves from that window.
- 19:45Now, my picture, my doodle, my simple, silly little drawing has literally jumped
- 19:54off of the page of my vision board and into my reality.
- 19:58It's like the universe got this checklist and went, right, I'm going to take your little doodle.
- 20:02I'm going to find you the house. I'm going to find you a man.
- 20:04And I'm going to put you both in that master bedroom waving out of the window.
- 20:08Now, why I hadn't thought of this sooner than a couple of days ago to start doodling again.
- 20:13It's honestly blown my mind. So that story, that's probably one of my most amazing stories.
- 20:18Manifestations to this day. And I think when I remember drawing it,
- 20:23I remember the feeling of it, the cozy energy, the layout, the warmth and the
- 20:28safety, my happy ever after.
- 20:31And I even remember drawing, like as I was drawing, I could kind of,
- 20:36I didn't really realize at the time that I was drawing my house.
- 20:41I was drawing a vision of my happy ever after.
- 20:45But like I said, the universe takes things literally and
- 20:47has gone I will find you that exact house now how honestly
- 20:51it still gives me goosebumps when I think about it and I
- 20:56encourage everyone to start having having a good I was going to say google but
- 21:02having a doodle and I still have that vision board I still have that upstairs
- 21:08I still look at that drawing every now and again and I have a new vision board
- 21:12now and I have some drawings on there too.
- 21:15And there was something two days ago when I was doodling, the more I doodled,
- 21:21the more I could think of that I wanted to bring into my life.
- 21:24And the more that I thought about, I wanted to draw.
- 21:27And also my sister and I were talking about it and talking about how much we
- 21:33hadn't realized that this process was really effective.
- 21:36And I actually reminded her of, I think it was about a year ago,
- 21:41my sister really, she was having a chat with me and she was like, oh, do you know what?
- 21:47I really, really want my garden done.
- 21:50She's a reflexologist and she's had a cabin, a beautiful wellness cabin built
- 21:57in her garden where she does her reflexology from.
- 22:00But she really wanted to have her garden done. She
- 22:03felt like she wanted the energy of the garden to match
- 22:06this beautiful wellness space but at the time you
- 22:09know as life always serves us
- 22:12there were loads you know bills to pay she's got three children
- 22:16she's you know various you know she had holidays
- 22:18coming up so she said to me i just really want
- 22:21my garden done but i i can't i can't get it
- 22:24done there is no way at the moment that we can afford to
- 22:27have it landscaped and blah blah blah blah and i remember at
- 22:30the time saying to her okay no problem let's
- 22:33think about this for the future I maybe want right now what do
- 22:36you want your garden to look like and she was like I don't know I haven't really
- 22:39thought about it yet and I said do me a favor here is your
- 22:42challenge go and draw your garden she said what do you mean I said go and draw
- 22:48your garden think about how you want it to feel what kind of elements that you
- 22:54want to have in this garden and she kind of looked at me And she went, wow.
- 23:01That's a really good idea. So she drew the layout.
- 23:05She drew kind of like a little sheltered patio area where she could have like a reading corner.
- 23:12She drew an area where she could have like a little garden bed with loads of
- 23:16flowers and an area for decking and her swing chair that she uses all of the time.
- 23:23So, you know, she drew the vibe, the furniture, the plants,
- 23:27the atmosphere and I kid you not
- 23:30I think within about a
- 23:33week or two weeks things started moving really
- 23:36quickly so she showed her husband the picture
- 23:39and he was like oh okay I didn't
- 23:42realize that's what you wanted for the garden and he went well
- 23:45hold on a minute let's have a little look at this a bit more
- 23:48closely and he went well I could probably dig
- 23:50that bit out and actually I could probably make a
- 23:53gazebo like that without anyway so what happened as soon as this idea of the
- 24:00garden was drawn on paper something started happening and it's almost like it
- 24:06was magically manifesting and I do have to say it almost actually felt like it was overnight night.
- 24:13And all of a sudden, I think within a few weeks, she was laughing with me saying,
- 24:18you'll never guess what, we're having our garden done next week.
- 24:21My husband can do some, we've got this person coming in, I'm going to do this bit.
- 24:26And, you know, they found a little bit of money as well to help the plants.
- 24:29Now, within, I reckon maybe within four to six weeks of her doodling her garden,
- 24:37she had her dream garden made, built, whatever you want to call it, landscaped.
- 24:44And she loves it. She loved it and she loves it to this day.
- 24:48And we laugh about it because she went, well, I can't believe that I hadn't
- 24:53really thought that I could get it.
- 24:55And actually it wasn't until she kind of put pen to
- 24:57paper she started using her imagination she
- 25:01gave clarity to the universe she gave
- 25:04her she gave her manifestation some detail and
- 25:08she brought it to life once she had
- 25:11drawn it she could envision it and
- 25:14we know the power of visualization so it's not just
- 25:17a case of doodling and everything will work out what it actually was it was
- 25:21the start of the process it was the spark that the manifestation needed to come
- 25:27alive to light up to grow and to be delivered to the universe so that you the
- 25:33universe could deliver it back.
- 25:36Now, obviously, manifestation is not always instant, but I think with my story and my sister's story,
- 25:45and listen, hopefully I'll have an update on what I doodled the other day,
- 25:49and I can say to you, doodling works.
- 25:51Maybe this has unlocked the power of manifestation, but I definitely think that
- 25:57doodling will help you see you having that thing for yourself.
- 26:03It can change the energy of it. it can change your vision of it and then it
- 26:08can change the action and the process of how you get there.
- 26:11So the universe responds incredibly well to clear energy and by doing this task
- 26:17all we are simply doing is making way giving clear energy and having fun with our manifestations.
- 26:24And I think this is why that vision boards work so well too because your nervous
- 26:29system starts recognizing that reality as possible, you can kind of begin rehearsing the future.
- 26:38You stop seeing your dream life as other people's lives and you can start seeing
- 26:43it as, oh, this is actually for me too.
- 26:47And that is really powerful. And honestly, I think people underestimate how
- 26:53important emotional immersion is for manifestation. It's not about asking.
- 26:59It's not just about wishing. I always say that.
- 27:03It's about experiencing, feeling, connecting, playing.
- 27:07And I think that's the key. If we can play with the universe and play with our
- 27:12manifestations, then you are going to unlock a secret surcharge,
- 27:16you know, magic spell into receiving your manifestation.
- 27:21Because the more emotionally familiar something feels, the less resistance you
- 27:25have around receiving it.
- 27:27And let me just touch upon, again, how calming creative manifestation is.
- 27:33So we have journaling. We know journaling can always be very,
- 27:37very powerful when it comes to manifestation.
- 27:40It's a bit like when we doodle. You know how I said you start doodling and you
- 27:44start drawing, and then things can unravel, and it grows, and it gets bigger,
- 27:48and it comes alive. It's the same with journaling.
- 27:50You note down your thoughts, and the more that you write down,
- 27:54the more that that begins to flow.
- 27:56And I also think, you know, but it's not just about journaling.
- 28:01That's the thing, because sometimes with people in journaling,
- 28:05we can sometimes accidentally overthink.
- 28:07And we start thinking, am I writing down the right wording for affirmations?
- 28:12Should I write it down 10 times?
- 28:15What tense should I use? Should I write it in the past tense or the present tense?
- 28:19What if I don't believe it enough but drawing
- 28:23or collaging makes it feel softer there's
- 28:26far less pressure and this is
- 28:29why another thing I think you can do is to introduce collaging
- 28:32if you haven't done a vision board yet I highly
- 28:36recommend that you do go and get yourself some
- 28:38magazines cut out pictures that feel relevant
- 28:42to you the one thing that I would say recently is
- 28:45that I've noticed that some people with their vision boards are
- 28:48just cutting out really nice words really really
- 28:52nice words and I think there's nothing wrong with words I think we should absolutely decorate
- 28:56and elevate our vision boards with these words
- 28:59however what I'm finding is sometimes people
- 29:03aren't being specific enough on their vision boards and this
- 29:06is why you know when I said I couldn't find a picture of
- 29:09my house or my happy ever after and I decided to draw it
- 29:12because that's the way I could be more specific so make sure you're not just
- 29:17filling it with lovely words so it looks like a lovely mood board this is your
- 29:21life it should be very clear and concise over what you want and how you want
- 29:26it to look a bit like my sister's garden picture she drew the layout exactly as she wanted.
- 29:32So I want to give you some creative manifestation ideas today because one of
- 29:37these might become your thing.
- 29:40So first, drawing your future life.
- 29:43Again, please remember you do not need to be artistic. It's not an art competition.
- 29:48Nobody has to look at these drawings.
- 29:50You can use stick people or very, very simple pictures.
- 29:54But today, try drawing your dream kitchen, your future morning routine,
- 30:00your future body, your wedding day, your office, your ideal day in your future
- 30:06life, your future family, your future partner,
- 30:10your dream holiday or your perfect Sunday.
- 30:13So don't just draw objects. Try and dig in deep and draw feelings, warmth, peace.
- 30:20Set the scene. Think about how you want to feel.
- 30:23So for example, if you want to meet your future's soulmate,
- 30:27your partner then rather than
- 30:30just two stick figures where are you maybe you want to them to take you to your
- 30:35favorite place is it your favorite restaurant is it to the seaside maybe draw
- 30:39yourself on your favorite beach or your favorite cafe so that you know that
- 30:43they are entering your life and again it brings it to real real life and reality.
- 30:49Another powerful one is to use Pinterest for manifestation.
- 30:54Now, I swear so many people are doing this now. Pinterest is very underrated.
- 30:59It is visual immersion. You can put together mood boards and the pictures are so amazing.
- 31:04And if you are struggling to find pictures that identify with you and your reality
- 31:09that you want to create, pop onto Pinterest.
- 31:12You can create boards for your future home, your soulmate relationship,
- 31:16your future wardrobe, your business, your travel life, your health life or even your energy.
- 31:23So you can use those and you can have a digital vision board or you can print those off as well.
- 31:29Now another thing that I love to do is future scrapbooking.
- 31:34So this is about getting magazines, printing out pictures,
- 31:38it's about going to get yourself some glue sticks, we're going back to school,
- 31:42we're making it fun, we're romanticizing it
- 31:45perhaps we're lighting a candle we're playing music we get
- 31:48ourselves some snacks turn manifestation into
- 31:52an experience because energy matters and
- 31:56the feeling matters when we pour love into
- 31:59your desires when we pour love into you
- 32:02mapping out your future lives the
- 32:05more connected you become with them so it's
- 32:09like watering a plant we give it
- 32:11attention we give it love we give it the creativity and
- 32:14that attention will grow things it will
- 32:17grow your manifestations into real life so remember
- 32:21we're kind of we're doing mindful mindfulness techniques
- 32:25we're getting creative we're unleashing our inner
- 32:28child all of these will help you with your
- 32:31manifestations I promise you and I also think creative manifestation helps people
- 32:37access belief more naturally as well because sometimes writing I am a millionaire
- 32:43can feel a little bit too detached or a little bit far away emotionally.
- 32:49But if you draw yourself in your dream cafe in Paris or create a collage of
- 32:56your future home with a swimming pool or your double-fronted house or also another
- 33:02thing you can do in terms of creativity I've just thought about is making a
- 33:06playlist for your future self as well.
- 33:08And that is something that works really, really powerfully. So
- 33:11if I'm going through a moment at a time where
- 33:14I'm manifesting abundance I have
- 33:17a money playlist on my on my Spotify
- 33:20and it's ones that feel empowering it
- 33:23has money in the title and even you'll find that subconsciously it kind of raises
- 33:28your vibrations and it kind of just helps you to fall in line with your manifestations
- 33:33so you can create a playlist today for your future self your dream relationship
- 33:40your dream life your main character Summer,
- 33:43you can create different playlists for any kind of thing that you want to attract
- 33:48into your life, whatever feeling you want to attract into your life.
- 33:52Because music is also creative, but also it creates a lot of emotional feeling
- 33:58and emotional programming. So you hear songs and you will instantly feel something.
- 34:03So that manifestation, well, that is manifestation energy, the universe will
- 34:08align with that and bring you things that match that energy.
- 34:13So whatever it is that you want to manifest, I want you to get creative.
- 34:18I want you to think about what happened with my house drawing.
- 34:21It wasn't, I want a house someday. It was, this is the feeling of home.
- 34:26So remember when you're doodling, when you're drawing, what feeling do you want?
- 34:31Do you want to feel chosen by your partner? Do you want to feel like you are
- 34:35living this dream life with your partner and visiting all of the places that
- 34:39make you happy is it someone that makes you feel like home are you drawing them
- 34:44at your home because this is this is what creates that emotional feeling for you.
- 34:49And remember that manifestation is not about controlling every detail obsessively.
- 34:55I think it's just about bringing those manifestations to life,
- 35:01giving them some clarity and giving them some kind of direction.
- 35:04So I want you to remember there's no getting this wrong.
- 35:09You can't mess this up. And I think that's actually what I love about it so
- 35:13much, is that it's so simple that you can just go and enjoy yourselves.
- 35:17Get yourself today a piece of paper, go and have a doodle. It's that simple.
- 35:22So I hope that you've taken something from this today.
- 35:25If you do a doodle and you are manifesting amazing things, please do let me know.
- 35:31Slide into my DMs. I'm at the Holly Edwards and at the Dark Manifestation Station.
