LOA Round-up

I've been studying and working with the Law of Attraction (LOA) for about 9 years now. I had heard about it before then because in 2008 I started a "Vision Pad" (like a vision board and I wrote a Life List in 2009 but I didn't really get more into it until 2010, after reading The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. I started more actively working with it in 2011.

In the past year or so I haven't posted much about the Law of Attraction. I've still been interested in it and trying out techniques but I haven't felt like writing much about it. I don't have any big success stories like some people do and have often felt like a "failure" in general. In late 2017 I started my Feeling Your Emotions series and I've mostly been concentrating on that.

But I've still been interested in LOA and trying out techniques.  A few months ago I joined a local Law of Attraction Meetup group and it's been good to talk about this subject in person.

I've seen some changes such as losing weight in recent years and I've been working on my mental health and feeling better. I've also expanded my social life in the last few months. I haven't seen any massive shifts though and it can be frustrating. I do also think it can be harder if you have mental health issues such as depression and anxiety (which I have) because with depression you won't necessarily find it easy to "raise your vibration" as it's termed, and with anxiety (especially if you have health anxiety like you do), it can make you worry more about attracting bad things to you! I haven't so far been able to successfully use the Law of Attraction to heal myself of anxiety and depression but I do sometimes feel better. Leeor Alexandra of LivingLovelee.com has a YouTube video about how she cured her anxiety and depression using LOA and I'm going to try some of her suggestions. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsQ-Z_uQKUg


I'm planning to do a future post exploring manifesting and mental health more, but for now I thought I'd do a round-up of the previous LOA posts on the blog and revisit the basics. :)

Thought I'd include a little section to refer to if you're having trouble with manifesting, or feeling stuck (which I often do!). :)

Hope you found this post and/or one of the links helpful! :) There's more I could share but I'll save it for a future post. I plan to write more about LOA. If you use the Law of Attraction, what are some of the things you've manifested? Any tips for others? :)


P.S. I'm currently taking part in Amina Makhdoom of Lunch With Cinderella's annual 30 Day Joy Challenge. It's all about manifesting while doing things you love. We're a week in but it runs throughout April, so here's the link if you'd like to learn more and join: http://www.lunchwithcinderella.com/30-day-joy-challenge.html

You could also do it on your own which I did in 2016 when I first took it (since it was July). I haven't manifested "big" things but in 2017 I set a secondary intention to manifest a new family car (my primary intention was a relationship) and it turned out the current one could be fixed! I know that at least several people get their goals each year. It's also fun to take part and you get the chance to win gifts. :)
