Manifested Moments

I thought I would share my own experience with manifestation. :) I did want to make a disclaimer though that this won't be about money manifestation - and in a way, that's why I wanted to make the post in the first place. :) This will be a post about manifestation, period, and the understanding I came to around the concept of money.
See, I still have some crossed wires when it comes to money. :) This won't always be the case, but for now it is - and I'm okay with that. Always learning, always in transition - it's all good. I grew up with my father around constantly resonating in lack thinking. When I wanted to learn to drive, his mantra was, "You'll get in an accident and you'll hurt someone and it'll be expensive!"
I didn't learn to drive until I was 29 - last year, when my wonderfully loving husband coached me along. At first I would cry just getting in the driver's seat! Now I love driving. :) I have a cute little '97 Rav4 (which I manifested, btw *beam* ) with THTCR8S (thought creates) for the license plate and I couldn't be happier. :)
Anyway! Back on topic. Money. I have come to an understanding that money doesn't matter. It really doesn't. I don't want money...I want the stuff that money buys, and I've found I can have that stuff without having money! One day I will uncross my wires about money - I don't like the idea of having *anything* dis-resonant floating around in my vibe - but for now I have come to accept that my manifestation skills are best put to use manifesting experiences. Be it the experiece of having something that money would buy, or a vacation, or whatever I would like.
I'm sure I'm not the first person to come up with this - for all I know Abraham talks all about it on some CD or tape or in a book I haven't gotten to yet. :) But, here is how *I* manifest the things/experiences I want:
I visualize a snapshot moment (17 seconds? hehe) in time of already having or doing whatever it is. There has to be some motion in there somewhere, some time passing so you can have time to feel emotions (a la the whole 'we feel because there's change' post I made the other day :) ) and sense your surroundings. And actually, 17 seconds sounds about right. ;) I breath as much life into the moment as I can, adding as many details as possible. How does it sound? Smell? Tactile sensation?
The key magic ingredient that makes the bubble go is emotion. How do you feel in your moment? How have did you feel in the seconds leading up to your moment? And how will you be feeling as your moment moves on?
I'll offer here the snapshot time-bubble I created to manifest my Rav4 :)
I'm alone. I'm driving. It's night time. I have the moon roof open and I'm on my way home from somewhere where I just had a very engaging, exhilerating experience. I'm listening to a particular song on a favorite CD. The roads are empty and I'm getting constant green lights because it's so late. I look around my Rav4 and breath a smile of satisfaction, feeeeling into the fact that this is MY car and it's PERFECT! And the price was *so* right and this was SO meant to be. Purr purrpurrpurr.
I drove into my manifested reality snapshot time-bubble a week after I got my Rav4 and it was 100% as I had created it. The key to this, I believe, is getting into the Emotion of the experience. Not into the emotion in the now moment as you're creating it - though I'm sure that helps! - but into the emotion of actually sitting in your future moment and feeling it, in motion. Multiple magnets!
Be sure to pick a moment in time for your snapshot bubble where you're at the height of ecstatic Yes!, just like in the Virtual Reality meditations. That moment when you're at the height of appreciation and joy for your experience having come to join you in Now time.
There are of course many other techniques and processes you can use and things you can do, but the above technique is the most powerful I've discovered. So I thought I would share! I plan to hold a class on all of this some day called Dream Your Life, Live Your Dream - I love this stuff. :)
