Shifting Your Vibration to Manifest Your Desires

[carenkh]

Ha! I was cleaning, and a little after 8, I had a strong urge to run in and click on the forum, but I finished what I was doing first. Apparently I'm in vibrational alignment with Steve's new posts!

This article is SO timely! You've put things in a different way than I've heard them a million times... or maybe I'm just ready to hear it. This is powerful!!

I remember a few years ago, being broke. I was talking with a friend on the phone, and I was talking about my house, which was in not-great-shape, the landlord didn't care for it at all, and I lacked the resources (or believed I did!) to fix things up. For the first time, I made the connection between me being financially broke, my "broken" house, and my car, which was broken down at that time. I realized I had been carrying the belief, "I am broken", for as long as I could remember. For that moment, I had the clarity to see the big picture.

Deep inside, I still believe "I am broken" on some level, but that clarity gave rise to many, many shifts. The house I live in now is solid and beautiful - and the landlord fixes even the smallest things.

Thanks, Steve - I bet this one just flowed as you were writing!

~LOVE~

Thank you Steve!

I had a bit of a meltdown yesterday (following a couple weeks of not working out and eating not only cooked, but junky food), and with all I've been learning about reality, I knew I was the one responsible, that I was attracting these negative circumstances. That made it feel worse. I knew/know I have to shift myself out of it, but the how part is always a bit of a challenge.

So I wake up this morning, and here is an opportunity. I was hoping I'd get a little help from the ether! So 20 minutes a day eh? That option is definitely within my control.

I know you mentioned that in an earlier blog, but it's time to stop nodding and start doing. Okay... 30 day trial it is! Starting today!

Thanks... and I'm sending you a big old energy hug!!

What kind of vibration would you consider a seizure?

When I read your post, it felt like something you've written about before. A little redundant, but still helpful.

[mikeschu]

I can tell this posting feels different than your other ones, almost like you channeled a large portion of it. How much of it did you channel?

[TheSpiritualEclectic]

Great post, Steve. I've been doing the law of attraction for several years so I'm familiar with what you've written, yet it was nice to see it in such a fresh way today. The term "signal soup" really resonated for me. When I divorced, I started a new frequency for myself that instantly made life much more positive but it took another two years to clean house of my negative soup of friendships (very painful) and start bringing more positive friends into my life. I couldn't manifest real change until I immersed in new soup! I was trying to explain this environmental change yesterday and couldn't find the words. Thanks for the analogy!

Loved this one Steve, really great to see you writing about this sort of stuff again!

[Warping]

I think this is where the blog format really shines. A couple of years ago I wouldn't have even read a post like this. But following your adventures in growth is really fascinating and inspiring and makes this a worthy read to get a behind-the-scenes look at the growth process.

About this post, even though you've talked about this topic many times before, I think you cast it in a new light every time. I think you're onto something, I feel like you're uncovering the tip of an iceberg here and I'm glad to be here right now with you all.

Can you feel it?

Intention versus Vibration -- is there a difference?

The preliminary answer that comes to mind is that they're identical unless you don't consider unconscious intentions to be intentions, in which case the concept of vibration does include intentions that are sub/unconscious (like broke-ness).

I got to thinking about these signals. If we look at world around us, like TV news, very quickly we can get into the "fight or flight" survival mode type thinking. Which would mean, that it's GOOD to notice "bad things" so you can make plans, prepare to survive. Your mind is working for you.

But on the other hand, if you simply visualize a reality that is a positive counterpart, eventually you'll be responding emotionally as if those negative factors 'out there' aren't actually real.

So from a non-LOA standpoint, you would think that your mind is now working AGAINST you, because it is avoiding the dangers "out there" and now you are more likely to not survive.

But.... if we are designed to survive, and LOA was real, wouldn't it make total sense to have this ability? The ability to adjust our "signals" to one of a better vibration? If it had no purpose, why even have this ability to begin with? Maybe our ability to create different vibrations is as much a part of our survival as the fight or flight response?

[Plato]

What do you think of NLP as a way of controlling vibration?

[JoePike]

I've been reading a lot about Intention Manifestation, LOA, etc. lately. This article really puts all of that other material to shame. It says in just a few paragraphs what these other books and articles try to explain in hundreds of pages...and frankly does a much better job. Mostly because you don't just say what is necessary - you explain very plainly how to do it.

And it makes sense from an intuitive standpoint, which is often the deal breaker.

Saying "You don’t attract into your life what you want/think about/feel" goes against what most of these LOA gurus are preaching. But it makes perfect sense that your vibrational signal is what really counts.

So thanks Steve, for expanding on what you've previously written about for this subject, and doing it in a succinct and easy to understand way.

channelled ??

[danas]

Thank You Steve!
Im going to do some vibratonal shifting now
- later!

[cacheborn]

usually, your posts tell me about ways I can improve myself, tell me about new, better, improved techniques of accomplishing things. But there are also posts like this one that make me realize that there is so much about the Universe, so much wonderful I may add, that I simply do not know about. and my next thought is, this is sooo amazing. I want to know more.
(another post like this one that I can remember is about relationships and the idea that every person is part of you - philosophy of Buddha)

thank you so so much.
Love you, Steve.

ps : I am literally smiling, laughing for no apparent reason while writing this. If this is the happy frequency that you mentioned, this is AWESOME.

I think what he is talking about is non-verbal, IMO.

Steve, u da bomb! Such a powerful post!

[borisg]

If I had a penny for every article on the internet about the Law of Attraction and manifestation...so much regurgitated dribble being regurgitated.

Steve managed to throw out a fresh approach on it on this now worn out topic. As I read it I couldn't help but say "yes..of course" to myself.

Found this quote in your article interesting...

"Here’s how I’d describe the vibration of financial abundance: open, free, clear, bluish-white, flowing, smooth, bright, focused, and intense."

The part about the bluish-white made me think back to a book I read about reading auras, where they describe the major color in the auras of wealthy individuals is that of a bluish/white/turquoise color.... very neat.

Steve, if putting out a vibration/signal on our part leads to attraction of similar vibrations, is there not another way of creating vibration for ourselves other than the two methods you describe?

I was thinking about how you can take a tuning fork, strike it and watch it vibrate...as it vibrates if you put it up close to another tuning fork the other tuning fork will begin vibrating...you can see this happen in other materials and musical instruments, if they are similar in nature they will vibrate in sync.

With this in mind, could a device be created that replicated the vibrational waves of almost any state of being? I imagine you would first have to analyze what vibrations make up a wealthy mindset, or poverty mindset, etc..

I wonder if some of our magnetic imaging tools being used in medicine may hold the key.....

Appreciate your thoughts...

I'll second that. I finally realised that the only obstacle was my own belief that there was an obstacle, and once I got that, I started to be flooded with synchronous writings, teachings, quotes, and so on that answered a question I've had for a long time.

I can't tell you how many times I've seen/heard the phrase "vibrational alignment". I mean, it was to the point that I'd just roll my eyes when I saw it (just like I do when I see the word "utilize" when "use" could have been used, or someone says "infer" when they obviously mean "imply"). But for whatever reason, THIS time, I GET IT.

Now I just need to put it into practice, and I know I can do that (have done it before; I just couldn't work out why I can SOMETIMES manifest miraculous things and other times it just seems to fizzle out no matter what I do).

Thanks, Steve. I've been reading your blog for quite a while now, and this is the first time I've felt the urge to thank you for any specific article. And thanks to your spirit guides or the Universe or whomever it was that caused you to write that and me to read it.

[Dev]

This article beats all the "Passion Test and "The Secrets" of the World! Period.

[Still Growing]

Great job Steve !

The quality of this article reflects the type that originally brought me to the site.

[Apollia]

Very interesting article, thanks a lot.

I don't think I had ever heard before of the idea that vibrations, and not your desires, thoughts, and feelings, are what attract manifestations. (I've never read very much about the Law of Attraction, though).

I can definitely believe that emotions and thoughts don't necessarily magically attract manifestations. (I'm undecided about desire, though). I spent so many years full of huge amounts of negativity, I think my life would be much worse than it is now if emotions and thoughts were all it took to attract manifestations.

I wonder what role my formerly very extreme, ingrained skepticism might have played. I wonder if my total confidence that my negative thoughts and feelings can't make anything bad magically happen actually rescued me from my own formerly extreme negativity.


How can you tell the difference between a normal emotional feeling and the feeling of a "vibration"?

Since vibrations and emotional feelings are separate, does that mean it's possible to signal/vibrate happiness and joy but at the same time emotionally feel very depressed?

If you want to experience financial abundance, this is a very bad time to watch or read mainstream news.

Is it possible to have a vibrational signal which makes it so even if you consistently deal with negative or incompatible vibrations, it won't have negative effects, or might even have positive effects?

For instance, I truly believe that paying attention to negative stuff can actually help tremendously, because the more I know about a problem, the easier it is for me to figure out a way to solve it.

I wouldn't like to have a vibrational signal that makes my reality into a delicate house of cards that can be disturbed just by watching the news. Instead, I would want a vibrational signal which is not only resilient, but actually has the potential to transmute negative things into positive, and which won't encourage me to avoid contact with anything just because of fear that it might mess up my vibrations. Is this possible?

Also, what about music? Can listening to too-dark music mess up my vibrations? I hope not, because I really like some dark music for its aesthetic qualities (ranging from death metal to things like Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata), and it actually cheers me up sometimes because it's so beautiful. The only music that really gets me down is music I find aesthetically displeasing.

Best wishes,
Apollia

On the same level with the music, I have been thinking about video games as well.

Take the difference between a game like Zelda and a game like Gears of War. I love both games but they definitely have distinct vibrations.

I play video games during those times when my mind is in a state where it does not want to work hard by doing or by contemplating. It is a time of unwinding for me.

My main concern however is that a game like Gears of War could be negatively affecting my intention of becoming a loving compassionate optimistic person through the vibration it gives out.

I don't necessarily feel bad or destructive after playing a game like Gears of War, but should I make the choice to play games and play Zelda and Mario Galaxy where the game shows more love and fun?

I many people on this board play video games, including Steve. So I was wondering if anyone had any insights in how these types of video games affected their vibration?

The only thing stopping you is a collection of limiting beliefs about what it all means.

Steve mentioned that he plays Halo with his son. I too would be interested in his take on this. Is it different from watching the news in how it affects you?

[carenkh]

I think it would differ from person to person - when my oldest plays games like Halo or Fallout 3, he feels empowered and smart - not a low vibration at all! It's funny, 'cause in non-video-life, he's very calm and peaceful, but he enjoys some of these violent games (some of them, he doesn't care for). My youngest is more... well, just more, in general: louder, rougher, etc., but he does not care for the violent games at all. I'd just ask: how do you feel after playing?

NLP is a GREAT way to change your vibration. Deliberate thought, baby... it's the best valentine's gift you can give yourself!

[Erin Pavlina]

Regarding video games. I'm a very non-violent person but I do enjoy a good game of Halo. Why? I like the teamwork, the strategy, and feeling like I'm a hero. That's why I used to play City of Heroes (an online massive multiplayer game). Nothing feels better than taking out the villains.

Like money, video games are just a tool. It's the energy you bring to them that defines their character. If you feel empowered playing video games, play them. If you feel connected to others when you watch the news, watch it. but if you feel depressed or hopeless from watching the news, I'd stop.

[Theo77]

I've been going through this for a while now, like the last couple weeks especially. Moving to a new town, starting a new career.

I notice it can cause arguments with people you already have a relationship with. I think its all for the best though because the dynamics must change when you change your vibration.

Thanks ladies. That all makes sense. I don't feel good when I watch the news at all so I tend not to watch it. I've never played any of the really life-like violent games, but from what I can imagine they wouldn't have the same effect on me as the news simply because you know that it's not real.
