Manifestation - just a load of hooha?
(Yeah, I used the word hooha in an email.)
I'm pretty sure your instagram feed is filled with quotes and theories about manifestation. It seems to be everywhere at the moment right?
Well, for good reason. Manifestation is far more than a quick spiritual tap-in or positive thinking. The science of it goes much deeper.
Think about it. Have you ever accomplished something you previously thought impossible? Running a half marathon, getting that dream job, changing the way you talk to yourself? Modern science suggests that the key to turning our wildest dreams into reality lies within the power of the subconscious mind. From Joe Dispenza to Tony Robbins to Roxie Nafousi, everyone's talking about it.
For the geeky, get ready: Visualisation actually activates the reticular activating system, the part of the brain responsible for turning our goals into actions. Intentionally surrounding ourselves with images of what we desire repeatedly sends neural signals, priming us to spot opportunities and take steps toward our ambitions.
This is where vision boards come in. By curating meaningful pictures, quotes, and affirmations, we can immerse our subconscious in what we wish to welcome into our lives. So those pictures, quotes, posters and post-its you've got in your office or by your desk? They totally serve a purpose. Pinterest is way more than just a place to plan your dream kitchen ya know.
The consistency of daily visualisation imprints our aspirations, allowing them to shift from the realm of the imaginary into the possible. Our behaviors, conversations, and even coincidences begin aligning around our stated intentions.
And I'm always going to encourage you to be bold and dream big. Science confirms that our thoughts truly become our reality, so think big!
This week I've been working on my board for 2025, and having a blast doing it. Want to give it a go? Set aside a bit of time to print, draw, collect or create any quotes, images, scriptures etc that are meaningful for you. When you've got a collection that feels good, sped some time organising them onto either a board or even on your phone through canva I've got two, one is my canva one on my desktop and phone, and the other in my office.
Wanna see?
