The Law of Attraction is based on the principle that all matter is made up of pure energy, which is in a constant state of vibration and spin.

The LOA implies that thoughts and emotions are also energy, each having a unique energy signature. Every energetic frequency is in a constant state of attraction or repulsion with all others.

With the recent emergence of quantum mechanics, this notion has been largely supported at a micro level.

The Law of Attraction states that "like attracts like," and we are in a constant state of creating our reality through the energy we emit in the form of thoughts and emotion.

We continuously interact with the fabric of reality (or quantum field), through thought and emotional energy, and whatever we focus on is likely to manifest.

We are each creators of our own reality, and what we put out is what we will attract.

3 Things You Need to Know First
 

1. A key factor missing from the LOA is that we are creating on both a conscious and subconscious level

    

   This accounts for the seeming contradiction between "opposites attract" and the major principle of LOA, "like attracts like."
   
   We are still attracting the part of the whole that has been splintered and repressed into the subconscious mind. Basically, the actively repressed traits within ourselves are still charged, and this suppressed energy is also a point of attraction.

    

   Until we acknowledge and integrate it, it will still play a role in the creation of our external reality.
   
    

2. Our belief systems alter our manifestation process

    

   If you want to manifest $10,000 in one week, but your underlying beliefs are largely identified with a state of lack, you will only manifest more lack.
   
   This is because Law of Attraction works with both thought and emotion, and if you try to think your way into something that you don't believe, your emotional reaction will support your unconscious beliefs more than your conscious thoughts.
   
   If you try to affirm, "I will be abundant," but don't believe it, those beliefs will surface via an emotional response that insinuates the opposite feeling. At that point, you are literally putting the gas and the breaks on at the same time, making manifestation very difficult.
   
   One great tip to overcome this, as stated by Abraham Hicks, is to "start general, and then get specific" with your manifestation process. Start with what you can believe, and continue to expand as you see evidence of your manifestations taking place.

    

   This allows your thoughts and emotions to be in resonance rather than dissonance.
   
    

3. We are always manifesting according to our highest values

    

   Renowned behavioral development specialist Dr. DeMartini (who was also featured in The Secret) discovered that we all have an inherent set of values that is largely governing our behavior.

    

   DeMartini is quoted as saying,

"All of our actions are strategies to align with our values as efficiently as possible," along with, "all of our positive and negative emotions are feedback as to whether or not we are living in our highest values."

Essentially, the things we value the most filter our perception at a subconscious level. They are governing the way that we manifest, and the reasons we do.

This is why, for example, someone might set a new year's resolution to lose weight and never achieve their goal.

 

If one of their highest values is social connection, their unconscious will perceive that taking the time to exercise and eat right actually conflicts with the time they would rather be spending at social events with others.

The trick, then, is to change your perception by tying in how exercise and diet actually support your high value on social connection.

 

For example, you might feel more confident meeting new people when you are healthy and strong. Or you can approach it from the other end by tying your value into your goal.

 

In this case, you could try to engage your value of social connection by going to the gym or to nutrition classes with your close friends.

What You Need to Know During Active Manifestation

These are some useful tips if you are meditating on your vision, or practicing visualization.

• Clear your mind

   

  To speed up the process of manifestation, presence and focus are key. If your attention is scattered, your manifestation will be too. Write down on paper whatever is bothering you, and vow to leave it outside of your visualization.

   

  This will help you stay present.

  
   

• Open your heart for the process

   

  Connect with the feeling of gratitude as you begin. This can be done by writing a short gratitude list, or by thinking of people/events that you are truly grateful for.
  
  According to the HeartMath Institute,

"The heart generates an electromagnetic field roughly 60 times greater in amplitude than brainwaves do."

This field is measured by an electrocardiogram (ECG), and brainwaves were measured using an electroencephalogram (EEG) during these findings. The heart is a major point of attraction.

 

• Be clear

   

  The law of attraction is described as a law. This means it responds to everything, without exception. If you are mixed in your emotions or vision, it will slow the process. The clearer and more detailed you are, the faster your vision will come to life.

  
   

• Engage your senses

   

  Did you know that the brain can't actually tell the difference between experience and visualization? This is why visualization is so useful for athletes. This principle applies directly to the LOA. What do you see, hear, smell, touch, and feel when you have arrived at your vision? Feel each sense distinctly, and don't be afraid to sit with each one individually.

  
   

• Engage emotion

   

  This is how to charge your vision. Emotions are the driving force behind manifestation.

  
   

• Align your intention with your values

   

  Tie what you want to manifest into your highest values. More simply put, make sure you can see how your goals support the things that matter most to you in life. This will help you manifest congruently from both the conscious and subconscious mind.

  
   

• Don't be desperate

   

  Try to imagine that you are gently requesting. If you are being needy or desperate in your request, you are coming directly from an emotional space of lack. The emotional feeling of lack will counteract your thought-energy, and you are more likely to stagnate.

What You Need to Know After

• Take action

   

  Taking action will create momentum, while also building evidence towards creating the belief that your manifestation is unfolding.
   

   

• Act as if it has already happened

   

  "I AM" is a creative, powerful phrase. If you conduct your behavior as the person you have already become, you are more energetically aligned with your goal.
   

   

• Be aware of your internal dialogue

   

  Remember, you are in a constant state of attracting or repulsing what it is that you want to achieve. Your internal dialogue is always creating a point of attraction, along with the emotional reactions it produces. Be congruent!
   

   

• Allow!

   

  You must fully release your vision in order for it to manifest. If you are too attached to it, your need for control can actually stunt the process. Faith and belief in the process are key. It can be helpful to think in terms of being at a restaurant. Once you've placed your order, you have to give it time to be cooked up and served to you!

We are all creators, and we all deserve to live an inspired life.

The Law of Attraction is a beautiful tool that enables us to consciously put our creative powers to use!

In the words of George Bernard Shaw,

"Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself."
