The Law of Attraction is working whether you believe it or not. It’s like gravity; it works regardless of your attention to it. The issue is, are you attracting what you want? Or are you stuck on focusing on the circumstances in your life that you want to “get rid of”.

When you want to get rid of something you are giving your focus of energy to it. It works better if you take your attention away from dwelling on the circumstances that you rather not live with and instead, envision – go within and vision – what it is you want and get really clear about that.

“People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don’t believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can’t find them, make them” ~George Bernard Shaw

I knew this intellectually a long time before I started putting it to practice. The Law of Attraction sounded like a great idea, but what I did not realize is the importance of adding FEELING to the mental pictures. Our minds think in pictures and emotion causes us to take action.

If you do not add feelings to the mix, you are only “in your head” and your heart is not engaged so you will not believe it. Belief involves feelings and thought. The product of combining these two elements will be belief which will cause your subconscious mind to zero in on things that you may not normally take notice of.

You are also wiring your brain to gear your body up to take action. The stronger the emotion, the stronger the brain connections wire together to make it happen. So the abbreviated process is as follows:

1. Get a clear mental image about what it is you desire; you start with the end in mind.

2. Don’t outline the “how-to”; just stay focused on the final outcome. The Universe will fill in the details.

3. Add as much sensory detail as possible, the more the better.

4. Do this process in a relaxed meditative state, so relaxation and a focused mind comes in handy here! This state accesses the subconscious mind better. (Wires the brain/body connection)

5. If you have a clear mental picture it is helpful to write it down in a narrative and even record it in a MP3 file to listen occasionally throughout the day. At least recalling it a couple of times a day can be reinforcing.

6. Pay attention for synchronistic events; the Universe works through people and situations that show up in your life

Now here’s a stumbling block: if you have subconscious emotional blocks that constrict your self-image, negative self-talk that stirs up doubt and self-worth issues or if you are hanging out with “energy vampires”, you will have a much harder time consciously co-creating what you desire. In these cases the Law of Attraction will work to bring you what you may not want as the Universe responds to vibration. The strongest vibe wins. So, you may have to clear out the negative stories about who you think you are or paradigms that teach that you live in a stingy or punishing Universe.

It’s worth the effort, as it will ultimately lead to more inner peace either way. And isn’t this what we all want? When used wisely, especially using visualization via listening to your inner Guidance, the Law of Attraction can be used to create the inner peace you are seeking which can only come, from the inside out!
