How To Interact With The Physical World And Communicate With Others When Manifesting Your Desires
This was a question that tripped me up and left me in my head for a long time. I wanted the direct, “perfect” answers to this. I was still tackling manifestation mentally and made it more about doing than about being. If you are wondering and worrying about this question as well, I want to invite you to ask yourself why you stress about it. Are you afraid of messing things up? Do you feel insecure about how to behave and what to say to other people? Well, these questions are coming from your Ego rather than from your true self which is God, Consciousness, I AM, or whatever you want to call it. Anyway, I felt inspired to write this article for a past version of myself and for you simultaneously since you are me pushed out and we are living in this human experience together. Often times, I found posts on social media and articles that don’t touch on this topic in depth. Because to me, there is more than just “the 3D is the past and just a reflection”. We still have to live in the physical world and taking care of our human self. Part of that is having conversation with others and interacting with the world around us.
“How Am I Going About My Day And Interacting With The 3D World?”
To me, it‘s not about „acting as if“ but staying true to myself and my values. It means no longer settling or going back to old ways just because it felt comfortable (it‘s not really comfortable it‘s just learned and thus it feels familiar). It is choosing love over fear and giving myself what I need. I like to trace desires back to the qualities or feelings I think they would „give“ me. For example, giving myself the attention, validation, and comforting words and not trying to get them from someone else. Giving myself a hug and holding space for any emotions that want to be felt. I like to focus on the relationship with myself which is self-concept to me. Since I had a past with survival mode, depression, and bad anxiety, I do my best to be mindful that I refrain from forcing and „trying to make 💩 happen”, and instead practice observing thoughts vs. identifying with or believing them and ground myself and stay in the present moment as good as possible. I know our ego with the logical mind can be very good at telling convincing stories that could make us act in a certain way, therefore it is so important to remind ourselves that even though they seem so real they are not. Thoughts are just illusions and have no power over us.
Instead of stressing yourself out to need to be perfect at this, try to focus on each day. Take it day by day, moment by moment, and release any pressure. You can compare this to let go of a habit that no longer serves me, e.g. stop smoking: instead of telling yourself „I’ll never smoke again from now on!“, you focus on the present day and say „Just today“. This also helps to relax and to release the „all or nothing“ mindset.
I don’t think we came here, to discover manifestation and then to make our lives harder than before. It can feel like a lot of responsibility but think about how you define responsibility. Remember that your true self is always by your side and within you, you can always ask it for guidance. It is our responsibility to treat ourselves well, to take care of our physical and mental well-being, to slow down, and to enjoy life instead of fighting the 3D world and using spirituality as a way to escape. It is about adapting a deeper relationship with yourself, “others”, life, and the Oneness, the consciousness that we all share, that we are all made of.
Responsibility = Ability to respond
Triggers: it is normal to get triggered, especially when we step into something „new“ and when it is so different from our old known circumstances. I like to remind myself that triggers, as uncomfortable as they can be are here for me. They are pointers towards where I haven‘t liberated myself yet and thus allow me to do so by letting go. We are letting go by turning our attention (as good as possible) away from the surface — the event happening and turning inward toward feeling instead. Often, it is not the event that is the „problem“ but the emotional charge triggered by it that trips us up. This emotional charge wants to be felt and there is nothing to fix about the situation. By changing how you perceive emotions and sensations, you can set yourself free and triggers will have less and less power over you. In my programs and sessions, I will walk you through this process and hold space for you, so that you can continue to practice this on your own.
What is your relationship with your emotions and feelings? Are you afraid that feeling a certain emotion will affect your manifestation? I know there has been conditioning in the manifestation community but I would like to remind you that we came here into this physical to have a human experience and this includes feeling. God/Consciousness, our true self wants to experience all kinds of emotions as they are an essential part of being (playing) human. In my opinion, suppressing emotions is not just unhealthy but also counterproductive whereas feeling them unconditionally without adding stories to them, you are supporting yourself on your manifestation journey and embracing your humanness along the way by doing so. The latter sounds more like embodying love, hm?
Going about my day will be completely different from yours, so always check in with yourself and ask what you need.
Communicating With Other People
What I sometimes do is that I think about some scenarios a part of me feels worried/insecure about and then I tune into my true self or connect to feelings like confidence, calmness, or ease & ask myself how I would respond to that person. When you are so anchored in what you have experienced as reality in your imagination then it doesn‘t matter what you are saying. I‘d suggest making sure that you’re present and in your body, to be mindful about your posture, ie. dropping your shoulders to signal to your body that you are safe, feet firmly on the ground, and breathing slowly and deeply.
I also like to remind myself that the shifts I make within myself affect everyone and everything around me, so that people naturally calm down or are even „leaving my reality“. What is also lovely to remember is that the person you are talking to is more than the human shell that you are witnessing with your physical senses. They are — just like you pure love & consciousness beyond the ego mask. This can also help to soften tension, especially during an interview or with authorities. Yep, even governments and the people there are not who they appear to be, they are also made of consciousness aka the essence that connects all of us beyond the physical, so real appearing illusion.
Another thing is that you can see conversations also as opportunities to practice your boundaries. I, for example, used to be very open and sharing so much out of fear of coming off rude if I didn’t but since I left that identity behind, I practice keeping some stuff just to myself. Especially when being asked about stuff that you’re manifesting and you are practicing accepting the 3D and not using it as a reference to talk about. Conversations with „other people“ are also good ways to practice being your authentic self and to respond from your „new“ state (it’s not really new since you just accessed what was already within you since the very beginning). If you start to see it as a game and take it less seriously, the tension will lessen too.
Like anything on this spiritual path, it is about consulting your (inner) self and thus cultivating self-trust and being led by that. What can help to identify between your ego and your true voice is that it often feels commanding, pushing and lies are heavy & intuition/love feels more inviting, and pulling & that the truth feels light. I will also write an article about intuition in the future or will speak about it in the podcast.
