Did you ever wonder why things seem to come up to derail the manifestation of your vision, or why you'd get close or even accomplish parts of it only to watch it 'wash away' in a series of events or waves?

Have you wondered why things like the Law of Attraction don't seem to work for you, even though you articulate your intentions and say your affirmations regularly?

Or have you experienced a sense of impending doom, dread, or loss even when things seem to be going well?

I did, and I saw (and see) it frequently with friends, colleagues, clients, and family members, too.

For example, you might be attuning to a vision of right-livelihood and prosperity, and seeing yourself joyfully sharing your gifts and skills to the benefit and joy of others, while having body-memory programming that runs in direct contrast to those ideas, and so acts as a 'drag' or derailer behind the scenes.

Or when you're tuning in to a strong, powerful vision, and working with intentions and affirmations, but have energy imprints of fear, loss, failure, or beliefs that say "You can't do that...", the latter will very much affect our ability to really move forward with that vision or Law of Attraction work.

It wasn't until I started to integrate what I'd learned from my business and life experience with what I'd learned from my various energy/shamanic, Indigenous Wisdom, intuitive, and vibrational-healing teachers that I really started to understand the dynamics that were at play.

Approaches like the Law of Attraction focus on universal truths - by which I mean there is truth in what the Law of Attraction teaches. However, it's not just a mental game. Our thoughts are really important, no doubt, but there's a larger 'body of thought' that must also be integrated in order to really tune in to what's possible.

When I say 'body of thought', I mean it literally. We're used to thinking from our mind, and thinking that our mind is IT. You know all of those "I think, therefore I am" kinds of things.

Yet as contemporary science is increasingly telling us, there's a whole lot more to our bodies than just our minds. Our bodies themselves have a genius, a mind of their own, so to speak. Our bodies also 'hold' imprints of traumas and beliefs, whether from our own experience, or even that of our parents, ancestors, or culture.

So when we tune in to a strong vision, or work with approaches like the Law of Attraction, it's essential that we include the 'body mind' and awareness along with our thought awareness, because they're very much connected! We want them aligned.

By working with practices or interventions that integrate the 'body mind' level, and begin to clear the derailing beliefs and body-memory imprints, we find a whole new level of support not just for moving forward with vision, intention, and affirmation, etc., but also an increasing clarity around what vision, intentions, affirmations, and so on are really aligned with our own purpose.

So to give your vision and Law of Attraction work a super-boost, integrate the vibrational and other practices that are available to reach that body, mind, spirit alignment that Alchemists and Wisdom Teachers across the ages have emphasized.

The good news is that these practices have added benefits of increasing groundedness, calm, intuition, wellbeing, and decreasing stress, overwhelm, and distraction.
