My Low Key Manifesting Hacks
Manifestation is something that can be tricky for a couple reasons... 1) goal setting can become addictive. Always wanting to pursue the ‘next’ thing the second you cross something off your list. And 2) it’s easy to become attached to the outcome, which doesn’t allow it to unfold naturally. Cue what I like to call ‘low key manifestation’. You do the practice. Dream about the thing. Set the intention. Put it out there. Then...you wait. You release your grip, your attachment to the timeline. You chill out. Sounds like a dream, right?
It’s called low key manifesting and here are 3 ways you can do it…
LIFE SCRIPTING
This is a really fun tool that I’ve been using regularly. It consists of writing out your dream life (or a dream scenario) in detail, putting pen to paper & creating a visceral experience for yourself. Kind of like telling a story to your current self about what your future is like.
Once you reflect on the experiences & overall theme/feelings you’d like to call in, read what you wrote and record yourself speaking it out loud. You can use the Voice Note app on your phone, or anything similar.Listen to this recording daily. Really taking it in as if you were experiencing this reality now. Create the habit of listening to it before bed, after your meditation practice, in the morning while you drink your coffee, or anytime that feels right for you. Let it spark excitement for what your future holds & allow it to set the trajectory for your days.
VISION BOARD
This is my fav! Everyone loves a good vision board. You can go the old fashioned route and use magazines & a sturdy pair of scissors & glue or you can opt for a digital version. Nowadays I use Pinterest, Canva & my creative mind.
In business and branding we create something called a ‘mood board’. This is a compilation of photos, colour schemes and inspiration that represent how we want a product/website to feel. Vision boards are like a mood board for your life. They capture the feel & general vibe of your dreams.
Here’s why using this method to manifest is low key...you have a blast while creating it and the final product always ends up amazing because it’s basically just a bunch of photos you love (things that you want to do, ideas that inspire you, etc). You connect to what it is you want for yourself by seeing variations of it in front of you. Your subconscious starts turning its gears in the background. Then a few days, months, or years down the line you start to notice that what was on your vision board is now being replicated in your real life. Trust me on this one. You’ll forget you created it, eventually come back to it and be blown away by what you see. And astonished by how many of those things, in one form or another, happened.
If your vision board is digital, set it as the lock screen on your phone or as the screensaver on your laptop. You’ll see throughout your day and, in the process, you’ll be sending reminders to your subconscious for how to program your life. Most of the time, this will happen without you even realizing it.
VISUALIZATION
I’ll be honest. This one requires a bit more concentration on your part but I would still classify it as low key because you can do it in a really relaxed way. A big bonus. Great for your parasympathetic nervous system too. Visualization is the act of picturing something in your mind and connecting to the feeling as if it were happening in real time.
Here’s an exercise: sit down & picture your future self. What is she doing? What makes her happy, fulfilled, at peace? What do you see for yourself down the line? Dream without limits. See what naturally comes to mind. Do this frequently for anywhere between 3-10minutes. After your timer goes off, take a deep breath in & a deeper breath out…releasing the visualization and metaphorically ‘giving’ it over to the Universe.
Go ahead, give one (or all) a go & as one of my good friends always tells me, remember to ‘channel your highest excitement’ while you do it.
