Get With the Program - And the Terminology of Manifesting

By Ambila Nath.

The word 'Manifesting' is used frequently in today's personal and business development (usually by people like me!). It's linked to all kinds of terminology, so in the beginning (and occasionally now also), I had to Google to see what it all meant. Sound familiar?

If this sounds like you, let me make it simple and invite you into the Manifesting Lingo world. Below, I have compiled a list of easy descriptions that you may or may not be familiar with when you hear experts discussing spiritual/manifesting aspects.

Ready? Let's get started.

Alignment/ Aligning Your Energy

Matching the frequency of your thoughts, emotions, words and actions to what you desire, i.e. money, business or love.

Attachment

A deep emotional bond to something, someone or an outcome is caused by control and expectation of how you want things to be.

Authentic Self

The version of yourself that you were when you were first born, before any negative programming, pain, trauma, shame or conditioning you received while growing up. It's who you are on a soul level.

Being Magnetic

When you are in a state of flow—positive, taking action towards your goals, confident in your beliefs and your whole, authentic self—it creates a magnet-like pull that attracts manifestations.

Blocks

Limiting beliefs which stem from low self-worth and keep you in old patterns and habits. They "block" you from your manifestations and cause self-sabotaging.

Conscious Creator/ Manifestor

A person who works to consciously create the reality they desire by taking action.

Daily Habits

Actionable steps that you can take daily (in a conscious state) that reinforce the work you are doing with your subconscious mind.

Detached

Free from caring about when and how something will happen or how it will show up in your world. You are just getting on with your life.

Ego

The ego usually refers to an individual's sense of self or perception of their identity. It can be an inflated feeling of pride in feeling superior to others.

Energy

A frequency that is authentic to every object or person in this universe.

Flow

Living in and aligning with your authentic essence. When you don't control any outcomes or hold any expectations on what and how things will happen, this is the ideal state, where everything seems to come into your life with the least amount of effort.

Grounded

To be grounded is to be deeply, fully present. Someone who is grounded is truly here in this moment.

Intuition / Universal Signs

your inner guidance (feeling, positive voice) that is nudging you to do a specific thing, go to a particular place, etc., your own Google roadmap.

Law Of Attraction

You attract the things you want by the energy of your thoughts like attracts like - negative to negative, positive to positive.

Letting Go

You are releasing all negative thoughts, energies, and things you hold onto.

Manifesting

The art of turning desire into reality.

Physical Plane/ 3D

The actual physical world that we live in as physical beings with physical needs.

Receiving

Your ability to receive things into your life - compliments, money, help and support, etc.- with gratitude and seeing their authenticity rather than assuming a negative (when there isn't one). If you are not manifesting what you want, check your energy levels when you receive something - they may be too low, or you may not fully feel that you deserve the gift.

The Universe 

Higher power/god, etc., the invisible yet noticeable force that connects us all.

Universal Tests

Opportunities, situations, triggers, and relationships that ask us if we'll continue settling for less than we deserve or slip back into old low self-worth patterns and habits. They're not pass/fail, just an opportunity for learning, healing, and growth.

That's all I can think of for now. Did I miss anything? Let me know if you have heard any other phrases that you want clarity on.

I'm always here to make manifesting as easy as possible.
