How to visualize something you aren?t experiencing
It has become a common statement in the ?human potential?
industry that manifesting and attracting something into your
life is much easier when you put feeling behind it. I?m sure you
can attain the same things without it, but I personally want to
?ramp things up? (as my older brother likes to say) and use all
the abilities at my disposal to guarantee that I receive all my
wants with the greatest speed and force possible. But I was
having a difficult time of it. How can you focus on peace and
prosperity at the times you most need it - when you?re worried
about your electricity getting shut off and you need to buy
groceries, but only have $2.00 in your bank account to last you
for the next two weeks?
I had to think about how to do this ? the mechanics of it ? and
one day it just happened. The reason I think I suddenly
envisioned it this way is due to two of my core beliefs which
are:
All of us are connected to a ?power source? of thoughts and
experiences that we all contribute to. I heard this referred to
in a scientific article recently as ?a universal, unifying
thread of love?.
If we are capable of feeling or experiencing something with the
use of a drug (such as extreme highs or altered states of
consciousness from illegal drugs) then we are able to experience
the same things without any physical trigger ? if we can just
tap into that power source. The mere fact that someone is
capable of having a certain emotion or experience is proof that
it does exist. We have only to try and to practice attaining
that same state using our own mental abilities and beliefs to do
it.
Let me digress for a minute and talk about this power source I
keep referring to. One day I was concentrating on focusing
myself to believe that the collective energy of the universe and
all of us in it would give me the support I needed to direct the
things I most wanted in life right to me; if only I could reach
up and tap into it and accept what it brought. To create in
myself an openness akin to opening your heart to a new
relationship, or the unconditional love and hope you feel when
you have your first child. For Christians, it might be akin to
opening your heart to God or Christ.
In thinking of this universal power source in this light (so to
speak ? what a great word choice), I suddenly visualized myself
reaching up with both arms, palms flat and touching a sort of
?plane? of blue energy. Don?t ask me why it?s blue ? it?s what
my mind created for me and you might see pink or green or
purple. The thickness was barely perceivable. Were it even a
millimeter thinner, one would not be able to see it at all. It
was not a solid sheet, but instead had constantly changing
clouds moving around in it. I imagined these clouds to be the
thoughts and feelings being constantly contributed to the plane.
I visualized all of us unknowingly (or for some, perhaps
knowingly) contributing to this blue holding plane. Then I
addressed that collective subconscious ? which I knew could hear
and respond to me no matter if the people contributing to it
were not even aware of it. (After all, things do not require
anyone to believe in them to exist. A tree exists whether you
acknowledge that it does or not. You are, however, more likely
to experience the tree if you do believe it exists.)
I posed my request to my new glowing plane for what I wanted to
manifest in my life.
Immediately I started to feel an acceptance spread through me as
if the collective energy had heard my request and was absolutely
thrilled to comply. ?Sure!? it said. ?Coming right up - just for
you!?
Well, I think I?ve digressed long enough. What I believe my
experience means is simply that from then on, the technique I?ve
just explained became my way of being able to visualize or feel
something I wasn?t actually experiencing. After all, someone,
somewhere out there has already felt the joys of buying their
dream home or car, or finding their perfect partner and being
truly in love, or being in the perfect health. All I have to do
? all anyone has to do ? is tap into it whenever it is needed.
Now when I?m feeling stressed out and want to feel at peace I
mentally reach up and draw out the experience of living a
relaxed, worry-free life. If I want to focus on drawing love to
me, I reach up and pull the experiences of those who?ve lived a
lifetime of happiness with their soul mate (ala The Notebook)
and fill myself with those feelings.
So the next time you feel like crying from loneliness, or stress
out about how to pay your mortgage, reach up and tap into the
lives of those who are living or have already lived incredible,
abundantly joyful lives. The more you do, the quicker you?ll
attract that life as your own. Feeling is believing. It works
for me.
