1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,200 Hello and welcome to the Awaken Together podcast. 2 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,320 I am Jen and I'm Kat. 3 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:20,880 And today's episode is going to be a dive into manifestation and law of attraction. 4 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,620 If these are foreign topics to you, don't worry. 5 00:00:23,620 --> 00:00:28,160 We're going to teach you ways to apply them into your life and also share a lot of how 6 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,920 these things have played into our life to give you a little insight on what it can look 7 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:33,920 like. 8 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:40,840 So to start off with just some simple definitions, manifestation is really intentionally creating 9 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:41,980 a new reality. 10 00:00:41,980 --> 00:00:47,840 So that might sound a little spiritual and wild, but it is happens a lot more in your 11 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,280 life than you probably even realize and think. 12 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:57,020 And then law of attraction is when you attract things based on your thoughts, actions, attitude 13 00:00:57,020 --> 00:00:58,960 and energy. 14 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:05,800 So Kat, I would love to hear you share just a piece of how you have manifested some stuff 15 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,800 into your reality. 16 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,160 Yeah, happy to talk about that. 17 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,720 It's powerful stuff guys. 18 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,880 Yeah, it sounds very magical and very big and it is. 19 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,560 Right, it is powerful. 20 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,320 So it's done a lot for both of us. 21 00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:22,480 I know we've talked about this together. 22 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,840 You'll go into your story in a bit, which I'm obsessed with the story of how you found 23 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:27,840 it powerful, right? 24 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:28,840 Yeah. 25 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,420 And may I add that even us being here together and sharing this podcast and you listening 26 00:01:31,420 --> 00:01:34,720 to this podcast is all a form of manifestation as well. 27 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:35,720 Heck yes. 28 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,520 I just snapped my fingers. 29 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,080 That's so right. 30 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,660 This is all, we're all here for a reason. 31 00:01:42,660 --> 00:01:45,200 So I've manifested some pretty juicy things. 32 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:50,280 My first one that I really remember purposefully manifesting was a two month backpacking trip 33 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,520 to Europe. 34 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:57,400 The next one was moving to Colorado, then leaving my corporate job all to start my own 35 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,880 holistic health coaching business. 36 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,360 Yeah, awesome. 37 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:03,360 Good things. 38 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,440 And yeah, I'm going to share too. 39 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:11,400 I feel like my husband was my biggest manifestation come true. 40 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:17,960 And I also think that as I've looked back on my entire life, I can see how every single 41 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:24,320 thing has been pieced together because of different little seeds planting and then coming 42 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:25,320 back. 43 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,040 And I see my whole life now as one giant manifestation. 44 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:33,520 I think that's the real key as you go through your awakening is being like, whoa, I really 45 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:38,000 can see how one thing led to the next thing. 46 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,420 It's so true. 47 00:02:39,420 --> 00:02:43,520 And in order to manifest what you want in life, there's definitely some work needed, 48 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:44,520 right? 49 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:49,800 So it starts kind of with getting your mind right first, because if you are just thinking 50 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:55,640 about pretty harsh things all the time, there's not going to be a whole lot of space. 51 00:02:55,640 --> 00:03:01,940 So I have developed this five step process, which I've shared with some people in workshop 52 00:03:01,940 --> 00:03:07,200 style in the past, something called high vibe manifesting that we're going to share with 53 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:08,200 you today. 54 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:13,680 We're going to fill in with our own personal experiences and really make this tactful so 55 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:19,480 that you can follow these five steps and begin working your own magic and manifesting and 56 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,400 attracting all that you want in life. 57 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,640 So let's get started. 58 00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:26,720 Shall we? 59 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:33,280 So first, I want you to imagine a garden, like maybe close your eyes and picture a garden 60 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,880 that hasn't been cared for in a really long time. 61 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,280 What do you see? 62 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:44,000 You'll definitely see some weeds, maybe some unwanted pests who've made themselves home 63 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,000 there. 64 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:51,400 And this uncared for garden can feel a lot like our minds if we don't take the time to 65 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,360 practice mindfulness and self love. 66 00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:02,360 Really, a quiet mind is the most fertile place to sow a new idea seed, a new dream, a new 67 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,280 intention, a new reality that you want. 68 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:10,080 And only from there does it have the space it needs to grow big and strong and proud 69 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,680 and take up the space it needs in your life. 70 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:19,460 So step one out of five is to cut the noise to make space for it all. 71 00:04:19,460 --> 00:04:24,440 So a really great way to do this is to identify your limiting beliefs. 72 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,300 So what's a limiting belief? 73 00:04:26,300 --> 00:04:31,280 This is the voice of your inner critic that says, oh, you can't do that. 74 00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:32,640 You're not enough. 75 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,240 You're not smart enough. 76 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,500 You're not pretty enough. 77 00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:39,360 You don't deserve all that you want. 78 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:44,760 So really bringing awareness to what the heck these limiting beliefs are is going to be 79 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:49,400 the beginning of catalyzing the change that you want in life. 80 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:54,880 So maybe this looks like journaling for you, rewriting all of these by first just getting 81 00:04:54,880 --> 00:05:01,300 the bad ones out there and replacing them is kind of the next part of this is replacing 82 00:05:01,300 --> 00:05:04,620 these limiting ones with new empowering beliefs. 83 00:05:04,620 --> 00:05:10,280 So let's say that you have a limiting belief of I am not blank enough, right? 84 00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:12,760 Even just I am not enough. 85 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:21,280 A new empowering belief to counter that is I am whole and worthy just as I am. 86 00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:24,440 So a couple ideas just to get you started there. 87 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,380 Unlearning and rewiring is done through mindfulness. 88 00:05:28,380 --> 00:05:36,000 So practicing this in your journaling work first and taking your power back. 89 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:41,640 So this can be like physical movement, moving through it in your body. 90 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,900 You know, kind of like in the last episode, we talked about processing trauma or a few 91 00:05:45,900 --> 00:05:51,080 episodes ago and how you can like physically work through things that are stuck in your 92 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,340 body. 93 00:05:52,340 --> 00:06:00,460 This can be through words or intentions, service to self and others and practicing this consistently. 94 00:06:00,460 --> 00:06:05,520 So maybe for at least seven days, incorporating this exercise into a meditation or movement 95 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,340 practice. 96 00:06:07,340 --> 00:06:11,460 Focus on imagining your new thoughts, your belief, your action. 97 00:06:11,460 --> 00:06:18,080 Notice how that feels in your body as you embody a new story, rewriting your narrative, 98 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:23,000 creating a new baseline for yourself and then regularly coming back to this practice, this 99 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:30,400 place of checking in with your authentic self, this place of unshakable worth to again, make 100 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:37,060 the space, laying the foundation, the groundwork, you're sowing the seeds for what you want 101 00:06:37,060 --> 00:06:38,560 out of life. 102 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:39,840 Anything to add there, Jen? 103 00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:40,840 Yeah. 104 00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:41,840 So what comes to mind? 105 00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:47,080 I remember that that was as I was working on trauma work and clearing the space, my 106 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:54,980 own mind and really seeing that I had so many identities that I had really latched onto 107 00:06:54,980 --> 00:06:58,660 when I was doing a lot of the separating from that. 108 00:06:58,660 --> 00:07:05,440 I remember feeling like saying positive things to myself, like saying, you are beautiful, 109 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,520 you are worthy, you are exactly where you should be. 110 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:14,640 Those things to me felt so cheesy and weird and kind of stupid. 111 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:19,480 But then saying to myself in the mirror, gosh, you look awful, you really need to do more 112 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,480 work on yourself. 113 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,000 Oh my God. 114 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,000 That felt so comfortable. 115 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,120 I was like, it really was like, oh wow. 116 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:34,760 I find it so much more comforting to talk to myself terribly than to say positive things. 117 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:40,200 And that was a way I could really, I had to hone out and be like, that's really an issue. 118 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,960 That saying something bad about yourself feels more comfortable. 119 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:49,200 Saying to others and saying, yeah, I don't know. 120 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,640 Obviously my body's not where I want it to be. 121 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,160 I don't look good today. 122 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,840 Would feel so much better than walking up to someone being like, gosh, I am just a badass. 123 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,320 I just can't, I am great. 124 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,240 That would have felt like the weirdest thing in the world to do to me. 125 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:08,820 And then I started realizing that even just seeing that I can talk so much worse to myself 126 00:08:08,820 --> 00:08:12,620 and feel comfortable and the good feels so aversive. 127 00:08:12,620 --> 00:08:16,680 That was where I was able to be like, okay, seriously, I might need to shift where some 128 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,200 of this came from. 129 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:24,480 And another thing that popped into my head was I used to feel, I used to think such worst 130 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:31,440 case scenario thinking and then be so happy that I, if something would go wrong, I'd say, 131 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:32,600 I knew that was going to happen. 132 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,420 I told you that was going to happen. 133 00:08:34,420 --> 00:08:35,560 And I love to say that. 134 00:08:35,560 --> 00:08:37,800 I told you, I told you that wasn't going to work. 135 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,220 I told you that was going to fall apart. 136 00:08:40,220 --> 00:08:45,080 And I felt like I had such a sense of control if I could just always predict the negative 137 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,480 and stay in the negative, then I had a greater sense of control than if I stuck to the more 138 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:55,800 positive mindset, which was so foreign to me, but I didn't realize how much that was 139 00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:03,760 limiting what I could invite in and how connected I could feel mind, body, and spirit. 140 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,560 And what I could attract around me and shift in my external world as well. 141 00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:08,560 Absolutely. 142 00:09:08,560 --> 00:09:12,400 So well said, self-sabotage is a dream crusher. 143 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:13,400 Yeah. 144 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:14,400 It felt like control. 145 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,000 It felt like a better sense of control. 146 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,040 If I can predict everything bad that would ever happen, how awesome am I? 147 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,040 Yeah. 148 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,000 It's hard to think, but it's so true. 149 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,560 And I don't think people really stop to think about that a lot of the time, how often that 150 00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:29,560 happens. 151 00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:30,560 Yeah. 152 00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:31,560 Yeah. 153 00:09:31,560 --> 00:09:38,920 So step two, let's go into your second step is really getting clear on what you want. 154 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,920 And so this is where my manifestation story, I'm going to share it with you because one 155 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:48,920 of the, I really feel like I am with my soulmate and married to my soulmate. 156 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:54,520 And I'm not going to say that that sounds cheesy because I'm very proud of it. 157 00:09:54,520 --> 00:10:02,000 But getting clear on what you want to me, I think that because letting your imagination 158 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,340 picture something too good feels very aversive. 159 00:10:05,340 --> 00:10:08,320 It feels like you're going to let yourself down. 160 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:13,720 But for Danny, when he came into my life, so this is my how I met my husband story, 161 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,940 I met him in 2008. 162 00:10:15,940 --> 00:10:17,240 We were on chat roulette. 163 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:21,460 If you did not grow up in those times and you never went on chat roulette, do not go 164 00:10:21,460 --> 00:10:22,460 on there. 165 00:10:22,460 --> 00:10:25,040 It's like the weirdest website ever now. 166 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:29,900 But back in the day when webcams were first coming out and everyone was having so much 167 00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:35,960 fun getting to connect face to face chat roulette seemed like such a fun place for you to meet 168 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,960 other like teenagers from across the country. 169 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,960 And it was nowhere near as creepy as it is today. 170 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:48,240 But we were on there and he was a person that actually wanted, he popped up on my screen, 171 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,880 he would hit this roulette button and then a new face would come up and he came up and 172 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,200 we ended up talking for three hours on there. 173 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:00,960 And we had such a flow to our conversation and we talked about such deep stuff right 174 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,520 off the bat. 175 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,280 And we even joked about like, wow, you seem really great. 176 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:06,280 Why don't we just get married? 177 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,120 And we're like, okay, yeah, let's do it. 178 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,520 Like honestly, that would save so much trouble. 179 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,600 And you know, we were just being goofy. 180 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,520 And then we were like, well, I don't want to like lose connection to you. 181 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:21,080 So we exchanged information and he became like a pen pal for me for six years. 182 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,880 And I, I dated other people in that time span. 183 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,840 And we went from talking sometimes it's just really supportive friends to flirty, just 184 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,760 depending on what was going on in our lives and where we were at. 185 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:38,120 But I would envision so many times what it would be like to meet Danny. 186 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:44,440 I would picture it like fully what he would look like, how our conversations would mesh. 187 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,200 And it was like a daydream that I had so often. 188 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,680 I look back and I thought about it a lot. 189 00:11:51,680 --> 00:11:57,540 And when we actually finally met in person, it was six years after talking and every single 190 00:11:57,540 --> 00:12:01,060 thing that I had imagined like actually was happening. 191 00:12:01,060 --> 00:12:02,600 And it almost felt weird to me. 192 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:08,440 Like I was skeptical of even what was happening because I was like, how is this everything 193 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,560 that I had thought? 194 00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:16,760 And I was like so weirded out by this concept, but we, we mesh so perfectly. 195 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:21,600 And I mean, for the six years we talked over and over again, like how special we felt it 196 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,360 would be if we did meet. 197 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:30,800 And we just put so much imagination into what our world could look like if we were together 198 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,400 that it actually came true when we met and started piecing our lives together. 199 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:41,720 I think we had spent so much energy on developing what that would look like that it was able 200 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,320 to manifest into reality. 201 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,680 I really perceive it that way now. 202 00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:46,680 Yeah. 203 00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:51,080 You both put that energy out there and there was almost no way that it couldn't happen 204 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:52,080 that way. 205 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,080 Yeah. 206 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,080 And it weirded me out. 207 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:55,080 It honestly weirded me out. 208 00:12:55,080 --> 00:13:03,140 I was like, um, why is exactly what I dreamed coming reality, but I look back and it's getting 209 00:13:03,140 --> 00:13:04,400 clear on what you want. 210 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:10,040 It's really letting your imagination picture the details to the fullest degree. 211 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:18,160 I think creative energy is our higher self or universal energy or our higher power. 212 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,640 Creativity and imagination has so much more power than we think. 213 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:30,680 But because we are so trained to think realistically and, um, yeah, be a realist about it. 214 00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:32,000 Don't imagine too much. 215 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:38,160 This is what starts to happen when we go from our childhood more into our adult years is 216 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:42,640 we turn off our imagination because we think it's not real. 217 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,520 It comes back to the, maybe there is something to the fairy tale way of thinking at times, 218 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:53,440 you know, like there can be a real magic when you let your imagination fully envision something 219 00:13:53,440 --> 00:14:01,480 and get so clear on it and let yourself just embody that visually, energetically, sit with 220 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,000 that and who really cares what happens next. 221 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,440 Your imagination can take you anywhere in that moment. 222 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:13,240 And the more you let yourself envision something, I think you'll be very shocked with what pops 223 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:14,240 through. 224 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:15,240 Yeah. 225 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:20,120 Like it's like being a dreamer now is almost like a negative connotation to some people. 226 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:25,600 It's wild how that's, that's come to be, but let's flip that narrative right now. 227 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,320 Let's say dreaming is a great thing because look what it's brought you. 228 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:34,000 It brought you your soul mate and it's brought me some of the most magical experiences in 229 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,480 my life too. 230 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:36,480 Yeah. 231 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:42,480 And like, I cannot like emphasize this enough, like everything you just said, the getting 232 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:48,080 into your senses and like being there in your mind, see it, feel it, taste it, hear it, 233 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,080 be it. 234 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:56,840 Like when I was manifesting my backpacking trip to Europe over two months, I did the 235 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:57,840 same things. 236 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,520 I mapped out everywhere that I wanted to go. 237 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,800 And that was 18 countries. 238 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,080 And I was like, well, this is going to happen. 239 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,760 It's going to be a lot and it's going to be awesome. 240 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:13,280 And so I would literally, whenever I had some free time, even during the day when I was 241 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:21,760 eating my lunch, like I would think about where like eating a gelato in Venice by canal, 242 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:28,240 I would close my eyes and I would just be there in that moment and allow myself to taste, 243 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:36,260 you know, the sour cherry of the day, eat the pizza, just go to like Christiania in 244 00:15:36,260 --> 00:15:44,380 Copenhagen and walk around and see the murals, the artwork and just allow myself to get excited 245 00:15:44,380 --> 00:15:48,280 about it and tell myself that this is happening. 246 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,920 We need to do away with the, I hope language, I think. 247 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,880 Yeah, it's a sense of control. 248 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:58,800 If it really is like surrender versus control. 249 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,160 And I think, yeah, we have learned so much that we need to control our thoughts and not 250 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:10,040 be too out there and make sure that, yeah, we're being real about things and realistic 251 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,560 to our circumstances. 252 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,400 And yeah, that's where we really lost our connection to our inner child, the magic of 253 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,320 our inner child that could really change some stuff. 254 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,320 Yeah. 255 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:26,040 So that's really what all of step two is about is like getting clear on what the heck you 256 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:32,400 want and letting yourself go there mentally, imaginative, feeling it. 257 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:37,840 And then step three is actually like getting into what we were just talking about, like 258 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:38,840 the control of it. 259 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,300 So creating a soft timeline. 260 00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:45,040 This is where it becomes more tactful and you want to turn to your journal. 261 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:51,040 So you want to list out all of the actions that you need to take to get there, to get 262 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,440 to your end goal, that place that you've been dreaming about. 263 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:59,160 So all the little actions so that it's not just floating around all up in your head sounding 264 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:04,800 and feeling like just a dream and turning this into plans. 265 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,520 Write it all down, even the smallest things. 266 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,200 You can actually just check off each item as you complete them. 267 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,080 And that is a boost along the way too. 268 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,400 It's going to give you some more energy like, oh, wow, I'm chipping away at things and it's 269 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:17,840 getting closer to me. 270 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,960 Like I can feel it. 271 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,840 And creating that timeline is important. 272 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,940 It can be a soft timeline so that you can allow for, you know, unforeseen circumstances 273 00:17:26,940 --> 00:17:29,480 to come in and mash and change it. 274 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,880 But think about when you want this dream to come into fruition. 275 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:34,880 Is it weeks? 276 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:35,880 Is it months? 277 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,280 Is it years even? 278 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:43,600 And that's OK if it's a long term kind of vision for yourself. 279 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:48,360 And as it happens, as it goes along, you're going to feel yourself getting closer. 280 00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:51,840 And it's just a part of all part of the plan. 281 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:52,840 Right. 282 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:57,220 And then step four is casting our intention out into the universe. 283 00:17:57,220 --> 00:18:00,640 So this is where I really want to bring in law of attraction. 284 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:06,080 So if you haven't heard of law of attraction, it's really how you're embodying the energy 285 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,120 is what you attract. 286 00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:11,240 So if you're coming into everything with a negative mindset, which is kind of how we 287 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:16,360 are taught to think when we think of being realistic about things, when we're taught 288 00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:21,320 to perceive things negative, like that is what we start to attract. 289 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:25,520 Like when you think something's going to go wrong, usually it'll go wrong. 290 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:30,020 If you think of something going right, which maybe you don't do as often, it's amazing 291 00:18:30,020 --> 00:18:33,640 what can actually then go right. 292 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,000 And we worry about getting our hopes up and letting them down. 293 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,960 And sometimes, yeah, we want something to go a certain way and it doesn't. 294 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:45,480 But we really have to look at how our mindset has been even kind of beyond just maybe that 295 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:46,720 one moment. 296 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,760 There can be little letdowns in the day. 297 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,720 And that is what is beautiful about what we said in step three is writing these things 298 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:59,000 down is it might not be this linear line from one point to the other. 299 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,680 It might have some up and downs. 300 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,200 And that's why it's good to have these more consistent check ins. 301 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:10,880 But what we embody energetically, which we've even talked about doing energy work and meditation 302 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:19,260 and yoga as being like ways to shift your energy in a way to maybe a more positive present 303 00:19:19,260 --> 00:19:24,360 moment way of thinking, that is a beautiful way to start working on your energy and maybe 304 00:19:24,360 --> 00:19:27,020 what you are attracting into your life. 305 00:19:27,020 --> 00:19:32,360 But it is also a mindset thing with law of attraction and letting, yeah, letting yourself 306 00:19:32,360 --> 00:19:34,240 put out more positive thoughts. 307 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:38,760 So adding in affirmations, I think, is a huge law of attraction type thing. 308 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:45,480 If you start waking up and setting your day with these, I am this, I am this, and you 309 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,400 come up with these strong words to embody. 310 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:55,320 I love to use the affirmation, I don't chase, I attract, what belongs to me will find me. 311 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,760 I love repeating these statements in the day. 312 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,600 I have a lot of attraction playlists I love to listen to. 313 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:01,600 Love it. 314 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:02,600 It's so good. 315 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:09,400 And yeah, just letting yourself into that energy of like, I trust, I surrender. 316 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:18,120 I am going to fully embody a sense of wonder and positivity into what I feel and believe 317 00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:24,160 and what my energy aura is putting out there so that I can have things come in my way that 318 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:31,160 maybe I never could expect under a regimented sense of control and kind of fear based thinking. 319 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:35,280 Yeah, going into this place of flow rather than force, right? 320 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:41,440 Allowing it to come to you and being able to embrace all of that along the way. 321 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:50,120 And I think holding yourself accountable to this is really important and telling people. 322 00:20:50,120 --> 00:20:55,200 It can be a really scary thing to be like, oh my gosh, I've been doing all this work. 323 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:56,280 I've made space. 324 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:57,800 I've gotten clear on what I want. 325 00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:58,800 I've made a timeline. 326 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,640 Now I have to tell people about it. 327 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:01,640 That means it's real. 328 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,640 That means it's actually going to happen. 329 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,160 And then the fear creeps in and starts changing stuff because you don't want to sound like 330 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,680 a crazy person, but we really need to look at why that started to sound so crazy. 331 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:16,280 Why is putting something positive so crazy, but then being so negative, so accepting? 332 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:20,080 Like really, we really got to hone out on this. 333 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,520 And I've thought about this a lot through my religious upbringing as I've brought up 334 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:31,800 many times, but I was so taught about fear and felt so much more comfortable and in such 335 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,960 a better relationship to fear originally. 336 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:39,600 And that is such, fear is such a low frequency and we know what fear does to the body. 337 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,320 Now we've talked about that. 338 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:46,700 It jacks up your nervous system, which our nervous system is how we respond to people 339 00:21:46,700 --> 00:21:50,020 around us, the world around us, the stresses around us. 340 00:21:50,020 --> 00:21:53,400 And so fear based thinking attacks your nervous system. 341 00:21:53,400 --> 00:22:00,640 So why are we so much more comfortable around fear and then love is such a thing that we're 342 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,680 so careful with? 343 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:07,680 We want to look at love as the highest frequency and inviting and so much more good when we 344 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,160 look at things through the lens of love, which a lot of attraction even shows on how are 345 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,880 you relating to the people around you? 346 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,420 Are you always looking at what they did wrong? 347 00:22:16,420 --> 00:22:22,720 Are you always looking at the worst of people or can you find a perspective change to send 348 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,360 softer energy out? 349 00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:27,720 Because that could even be affecting what can come to you. 350 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:33,440 If you're perceiving people through their worst, you're also projecting a lot of fear, 351 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:40,520 anger, resentment out from your energy body versus embodying softness and love and knowing 352 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,720 that you're safe in your softness. 353 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:43,720 Yes. 354 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:50,800 And that is like the most perfect segue into step five, which is just that it's practicing 355 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:57,200 self care and staying the course, trusting your intuition while all of this continues 356 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:03,040 to unfold because you really, you can't pour from an empty cup, right? 357 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:07,980 You need to be really rooted in yourself in order for this to work out how you want it 358 00:23:07,980 --> 00:23:11,360 to and even a dribble of your cup. 359 00:23:11,360 --> 00:23:12,360 That's not enough. 360 00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:16,000 Manifesting your life dreams isn't for the weak of heart. 361 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,060 It really needs to flow out of you. 362 00:23:19,060 --> 00:23:23,560 And there's things that you can do to ensure that happens to set yourself up for being 363 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,120 in a good place. 364 00:23:25,120 --> 00:23:30,240 So we've talked about self care so many times, so important even in our last episode with 365 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,520 your rituals, like leaning on those in these times. 366 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:39,760 So going for a walk, connecting with nature, like forest bathing, leaning into your yoga 367 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:47,300 and meditation practice, having a heart to heart with a friend, your partner, and returning 368 00:23:47,300 --> 00:23:51,880 to step one, returning to those limiting beliefs and those new beliefs that you're facing. 369 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,120 Because they pop up over and over and over and over and over again. 370 00:23:55,120 --> 00:23:56,120 Oh yeah. 371 00:23:56,120 --> 00:23:58,040 They will continue to sneak back in. 372 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:02,240 It's not like you just replace them once and they go away. 373 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,200 They're going to keep reappearing in your life and being sneaky. 374 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:13,120 It has to become really muscle memory for when one of those resurfaces to retrain your 375 00:24:13,120 --> 00:24:18,840 brain to kind of counter it with that new empowering belief each time. 376 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:24,360 And noticing it, noticing which ones continue to resurface and thinking about that. 377 00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:28,520 Not just like putting a bandaid on it every time, but like considering, okay, why is this 378 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,680 one really coming up to me right now? 379 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,520 Am I being triggered in some sort of way and leaning in there? 380 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,520 So the consistency is the key to it all. 381 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:39,520 Yes. 382 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,160 And I want to share one more thing in this episode because I think there is definitely 383 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:48,280 a shadow side to manifestation that is worth bringing up that sometimes when really bad 384 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,040 things happen to us, once you're kind of on this spiritual journey and you're thinking 385 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:57,160 with this kind of different perspective and mindset, you can get worried when something 386 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,120 bad happens to you that it was somehow something you attracted. 387 00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:06,520 And I think it is very important to remember that this way of thinking is to change how 388 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,660 you're moving through the present moment. 389 00:25:08,660 --> 00:25:14,480 We still don't have the full picture of what our soul signed up for, what we are here to 390 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,360 learn, what circumstances are going to fall into our life. 391 00:25:18,360 --> 00:25:23,640 We still don't have a sense of control for every single thing that is happening. 392 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:29,400 And really understanding that when something happens, it doesn't mean that it came from 393 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,320 your way of what your energy aura was inviting in. 394 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,300 There could have been such a deeper thought behind that. 395 00:25:36,300 --> 00:25:40,800 You don't want to get such fear-based thinking and to, gosh, did I attract that? 396 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,720 Why did that guy just say something terrible to me? 397 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,360 What was I putting out there? 398 00:25:45,360 --> 00:25:51,960 I think we have to also keep that perspective that this is more of a thinking mindset, not 399 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,080 necessarily going to dictate every single thing that happens. 400 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,000 But does it invite more magical things into your life? 401 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,000 Yes. 402 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:04,920 And I think sometimes something bad happening ends up catapulting us into a whole different 403 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:10,120 life path, and that can be very corrective for what our soul came here to accomplish. 404 00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:14,120 And remembering that there's still going to be waves of things that happen. 405 00:26:14,120 --> 00:26:19,280 But this way of thinking is to keep us grounded in the present moment and really watching 406 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:23,980 what we are embodying and putting out into the world. 407 00:26:23,980 --> 00:26:29,880 Because when we tap into light and love, it's not all going to be light and love, but it 408 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,880 definitely helps to expand this more positive way of thinking into your inner circle, which 409 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:41,400 ends up just going further and further out and can really bring us back collectively, 410 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,400 I think, to a much better place. 411 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,680 Yes, guys, shitty things are going to happen. 412 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:53,440 This isn't a magic formula to stop the shit from happening in life. 413 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,560 And Jen, you said it so perfectly. 414 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:56,560 This is a mindset. 415 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:57,560 This is a practice. 416 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:03,960 This is a way to stay rooted in trusting, sticking the course, staying the process and 417 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,540 know that good times will come. 418 00:27:06,540 --> 00:27:08,280 They always will. 419 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:14,720 Following your heart and you, you know, we're not in control in life. 420 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:20,940 We are a kind of there's things we can control and there's things that we just have to buckle 421 00:27:20,940 --> 00:27:23,440 up for and ride the waves. 422 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:28,660 And this is meant to bring us back some of that control or at least the feelings of it 423 00:27:28,660 --> 00:27:33,160 and know that those goals that we have for ourselves, they might feel crazy in one moment 424 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,360 and then the next moment you're there and you have it. 425 00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:37,360 So. 426 00:27:37,360 --> 00:27:38,360 Thanks, Kat. 427 00:27:38,360 --> 00:27:39,360 Such a good combo. 428 00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:40,360 Likewise. 429 00:27:40,360 --> 00:27:41,360 So grateful for you, Jen. 430 00:27:41,360 --> 00:27:42,360 Yes, we're so grateful for all you guys and we will see you next week. 431 00:27:42,360 --> 00:27:43,360 Bye. 432 00:27:43,360 --> 00:28:03,360 See you soon.
