But, a willingness to shift focus from what may be in front of your face now, and see through to the infinite possibilities that lay beyond is an absolute must. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only moment we truly ever have is NOW, so no matter what is happening, there has to be some sort of shift energetically in order to unleash some new energy, open up possibilities that were closed off before and truly become a co-creator with the Universe, who is just dying to lend us a hand, but can\u2019t defy our vibration. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a fellow human, I get how this can seem easier said than done. We have all sorts of conditioning that resists this sort of teaching and way of looking at the world. We are very accustomed to looking at all that is wrong in our life and all the reasons why things can\u2019t get better, all the reasons why we can\u2019t have what we want. As miserable as we may be, we are very comfortable operating from this space because it is familiar. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes our current reality is really doing a number on us and it can seem next to impossible to extract ourselves from it. Severe financial troubles are affecting every nook and cranny of your existence. The symptoms of a health issue are all-consuming, and it seems like your illness dictates every facet of your existence. You are convinced your ultimate desire is contingent upon several other things manifesting first, and can\u2019t possibly see how any of those things can happen, leaving you dejected and hopeless. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But no matter what is happening, there is always a way, trust me. So I wanted to give you a few core suggestions to set the foundation for getting the ball rolling on energetic transformation in even these most challenging of circumstances. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You Are Being Presented with a Massive Opportunity<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the type of stuff your mind resists big-time. This idea of these challenging circumstances being some kind of \u2018gift\u2019 can really get your blood boiling. I get that because I too have had similar reactions when dealing with some of my own personal shit storms that were particularly uncomfortable. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if you can get beyond that initial reaction and really ponder this for a moment, it can be life-changing for what you are going through now. The more difficult a circumstance we are in, the bigger the energy behind these manifestations. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There was stuff building for some time and because it wasn\u2019t addressed, the manifestations got \u2018bigger.\u2019 You are now at a point where it cannot be ignored anymore&#8211;it is just too painful, it is affecting you too deeply. I\u2019ve often referred to this as the Universe kind of \u2018forcing your hand.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And the more energy you are being served up to deal with, the more there is to release. Allowing yourself to really dive into it can bring massive change into your life. It can allow for massive healing of the various energetic \u2018wounds\u2019 that are actually the true source of your discontent&#8211;not the external problems you are facing. They are just a manifestation of that. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to get the most out of this opportunity, you are going to have to really dive into some shit here. You have to come to terms with how you really feel about your life and yourself. You have to be brutally honest about your belief system, the things you fear, the doubts you have, the pain you are feeling. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I won\u2019t lie&#8211;this can be uncomfortable as shit. One good cry or anger release probably isn\u2019t going to get the job done. You might feel kind of crappy for awhile but that doesn\u2019t mean feeling crappy every single second. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you may not be able to manifest a whole new reality overnight, while it can take a bit to get into alignment with your preferred circumstances, it is important to remember that even the smallest shifts in energy can create new possibilities and you can manifest something good at any moment. It doesn\u2019t need to take a long time to see change, but the positive improvement may not look like your mind thinks it has to look. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consistent Engagement with Your Energy is Crucial <\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you are really in the thick of some shitty circumstances, consistent engagement with your energy is crucial. This doesn\u2019t mean spending hours a day on your personal growth and vibration management. This doesn\u2019t mean falling into the trap of making manifesting all about the tools and techniques. This doesn\u2019t mean constantly analyzing every thought and feeling. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if you really want to build some momentum behind the energies that will serve you, there has to be some effort there. It is kind of like exercise&#8211;you can\u2019t build up muscle or better stamina unless you regularly engage in physical activity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The trick is finding things that resonate with you personally and doing your best to keep it simple. Don\u2019t create some elaborate routine that you will have trouble sticking with. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more you \u2018do\u2019 the more you are going to make manifesting all about \u2018action\u2019 and you will start feeling tremendous pressure to make sure you are doing it \u2018right.\u2019 If things don\u2019t change as fast as your mind wants them to, you will start getting all pissed off that things are not happening even though you are \u2018doing\u2019 all this stuff. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The whole idea of enough \u2018effort\u2019 eventually producing some sort of result doesn\u2019t apply to creating change on an energetic level. Your mind really doesn\u2019t understand that though. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes you are not going to be feeling it and you\u2019ll skip out&#8211;that\u2019s cool. But only you can truly know when it is good to take a pass altogether or when you may not be feeling so great but ultimately know \u00a0doing something will help shift energy and focus. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anything that Makes You Feel Better Is a Good Use of Your Time<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When we embrace a teaching such as the law of attraction and give this whole conscious creation thing a whirl, we may worry if we aren\u2019t constantly focusing on what we want and engaging in some sort of specific tool or technique to bring it about, nothing is going to change. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again, we make manifesting all about \u2018doing\u2019 forgetting it is actually about what we are \u2018being.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This whole idea of just trying to feel \u2018good\u2019 or at least \u2018better\u2019 sounds nice in theory and we intellectually understand it based on what we now know about energy and how our reality is truly created.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But as for really applying this in our lives, it is not so easy. We may feel like we are being \u2018lazy.\u2019 There is that part of us that believes this really isn\u2019t how it works&#8211;after all, isn\u2019t suffering, sacrifice and hard work what really creates change, what really makes us deserving of the good stuff?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have really big problems on our hands&#8211;aren\u2019t we supposed to wrack our brains trying to figure out a solution? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But again, the energy-oriented approach towards change is very, very different than the action-oriented approach. This doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ll never take any action or make a variety of decisions. That is likely going to be part of the process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But true change doesn\u2019t come on the level of action, it comes on the level of energy. So anything that shifts our energy into a better place is going to be very helpful in this journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anything you can do to feel better is going to serve you well, and I truly mean anything. When we are feeling good, or at least better, our vibration is in a different place and since it is our vibration that dictates our reality, a \u2018higher\u2019 vibration will lend itself to better things happening. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll be creating some space for these things to show up, whether it is the end manifestation, or some sort of idea, inspiration, solution, encounter or opportunity that will help get you there. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So let yourself do anything that makes you feel better&#8211;whether it is somehow related to the manifestation is completely irrelevant. It might be watching a funny movie, taking your dog for a long walk, finally making time for that yoga class, spending time in nature\u2026.again, it really truly doesn\u2019t matter and there are no right or wrong activities, or one that is better than another. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And on a related note, give some thought to things you are doing now that might not be feeling so great, things that seem like a relief to give up or at least take a break from. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maybe you are feeling really frustrated with your blogging efforts and it feels great to think of taking a couple of weeks off&#8211;do it. Maybe you want to block off a couple of weeks from your coaching or consultation business to just focus on you. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maybe there is a commitment you need to extract yourself from because you never really wanted to do it in the first place. Maybe you are long overdue for establishing some boundaries with certain people in your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are in a really painful situation now, it is highly likely that subtracting certain things from your experience now is required in addition to any enhancements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So that\u2019s my thoughts on that. If you can consider these core ideas you are well on your way to making some meaningful energetic shifts and uncovering loads of insights that will help you along the path. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your Turn\u2026<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What did you think of the post?
