MANIFESTING TIP #4: THE POWER OF WRITING YOUR REALITY
I just went through some sh**, so you may want to listen up for this one.
This is also one of my top go-to manifesting activities.
REALITY WRITING
A few years ago, as I was learning ALL the things about manifesting, I discovered a lot of outward activity you can do to support your manifesting.
Reality Writing was one of my favorite manifesting activities, because it also covered the mindset work- which is Manifesting Ingredient NUMBER ONE.
My version of reality writing is to write down everything I desire to experience as an “I AM” statement, and as “THIS IS DONE.”
On any given day you will find statements like the following in my reality writing journal:
Everything works in my favor no matter what.
I get treated like a VIP everywhere I go.
People love to upgrade me and treat me well, and they enjoy having me around.
I’ve been writing these two things into my reality probably for the past two years.
And this last week, I saw that manifestation present in my physical reality.
On February 22, 2022 at 11:00pm, I received a phone call that no mother ever wants to get. My son was the passenger in a bad car accident on the freeway (his second accident in two months). Only this time, he was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance as a code yellow, and was in the trauma unit. I didn’t get much more detail than that.
It was the longest 35 minute drive of my life as I made my way to the hospital.
I could have used that time to borrow all sorts of trouble, worry about the financial implications of this hospital trip, I could have tapped into my anger for the person who was driving, and I could have created all sorts of things in my head that could be wrong with my son.
But instead, I chose to pull out all my shadow work, and all my manifesting tools.
That entire drive I reminded myself that everything works out in our favor no matter what.
I worked on breathing exercises as I drove, instead of letting my heart race, and my panic run rampant through my body. This practice helped me to remain strong and solid, so I could hold clearer space for my son.
Instead of focusing on all the things that have been going wrong for him in the past few months, I called on my spirit squad and asked them all to surround my son with support, strength and love. And I just tuned into that energy instead.
And then I reminded myself 100 more times, that everything works in our favor no matter what.
His injuries were severe enough that I was allowed into the trauma unit, even though I wasn’t supposed to be back there.
The hospital he was taken to was huge, and I was walked back to the trauma unit by a kind and gentle security officer.
When the team of doctors and nurses were done tending to him, they gave me more details of what was going on. They patiently answered all of my questions, and they even anticipated what questions I would have, when I wasn’t sure what to ask.
I learned there was a nurse who witnessed the accident, was kind enough to stop in the middle of a busy freeway at night, and started directing people on what to do. She had another woman calling 911, she had a man give her his shirt to cover my son’s bleeding, she tended to all his bleeding, assessed his wounds, and she reassured him as best she could until the ambulance got there. The exact people he needed.
When the hospital was ready to bring him to a room for the night, I was also allowed to go, even though technically I wasn’t supposed to. The nurse that was tending to him was kind, gentle, and very reassuring. And once he was settled in his room, I was allowed to stay until about 2:00am, even though I wasn’t supposed to be there either.
For the next few days he was moved around to different levels of the hospital, including surgery time with a plastic hand surgeon, and a shoulder surgeon.
My son landed at the only hospital in Phoenix that has an on-sight plastic hand surgeon, who apparently is also top notch in his field. The other surgeon that would be assisting him that day was an experienced shoulder surgeon.
The most severe wounds my son sustained were to his skull, shoulder, and hands.
The exact people he needed were there that day for him.
And when the surgery was over, the surgeon came in himself, sat down right across from me, looked me in the eyes, and kindly gave me all the details and answered my questions.
Every area we made our way through in the hospital came with a whole new team of people. And every single one of them gave us TOP NOTCH treatment.
The most amazing treatment I have ever experienced in the hospital.
When I say he was worked on and cared for by at least 25 people, that is no exaggeration, and may even be an underestimate.
Every single person was kind, compassionate, and they were also thorough, detailed, and so very thoughtful.
There were many times in my life where my experience with doctors, or hospitals was very different from what we were experiencing here.
Not one rude encounter. Not one impatient person. And everyone who worked on him went above and beyond. The hospital was super clean, the equipment was up to date, and it didn’t feel as cold as any other hospital I have been in.
It never seemed like we had to wait forever for help, answers, or the next steps.
Every night he was there, I was allowed to stay well past visiting hours. I couldn’t help but notice I was the only non-patient in sight.
When he was getting released, they snuck in extra supplies for his critical wound care. They did so much to help us, it feels like a dream.
And in the background I had master healer friends running energy, extending healing, and holding a heck of a lot of space for us.
I had friends and family sending prayers and love.
My son’s accident was on a Tuesday, and he was also supposed to be moving out of his apartment that same week by Friday. My mom, brother, my ex, and brother-in -law handled the entire move out, cleaning, and turning in the keys.
We didn’t have to worry about a single thing. It was in the most capable hands.
My boyfriend was holding down the house, and the dog, and was there and ready to step in when my son came home and needed critical at-home wound care for the next few weeks.
When we called in to tell my son’s work what happened and that he’d be missing the next few weeks of work, they immediately worked to officially put him on leave to preserve his position, and also gave us information about a foundation they have to support their employees who go through trauma.
I am sure there is more, but it’s been a whirlwind of a week.
All I know is during probably one of the most traumatic times as a mother, and for my son going through the most trauma he’s ever faced- I realized one thing.
We were treated like VIP the entire time.
REALITY WRITING WORKS.
MANIFESTING WORKS.
SHADOW WORK IS LIFE CHANGING.
If this happened to me previously, I would have been a mess.
I would have borrowed every single ounce of potential trouble there could be.
I wouldn’t have been strong and clear for my son.
I would have focused on all the things that were going to need to be done in the weeks to come, and I’d get so overwhelmed, sick, or anxious.
I would have been so stressed and breaking down, I’d probably get into unnecessary arguments with the people trying to love me or help me.
I would have noticed doctors or nurses being rude, instead of working with some of the kindest people I have ever encountered in hospitals.
If my negative energy was fueling me, it could have evne gotten in the way of his healing process, and he wouldn’t heal as quickly as he is now.
I would have gotten in the way feeling like I needed to control all the moving parts, and that I needed to do it myself. And then I’d go into martyrdom about it.
I would have focused more on anger, and perhaps would have completely missed just how traumatized and emotional my son was. You know boys, they put up a brave front. And if you aren’t really listening, you may miss what’s really going on inside.
All I had to do was DECIDE to be present. DECIDE to be supportive. DECIDE that everything works in our favor and that we were going to be treated live VIP. DECIDE to focus on healing rather than on everything that’s wrong.
This WOULD have been a vastly different experience if the old version of me was walking through this.
However, because one of my most dominant beliefs now is I get treated like a VIP everywhere I go, and everything works in my favor no matter what, even through one of the most traumatic things I’ve ever experienced, these manifestations were VERY true and apparent during that time.
Please don’t discount the power of perspective, and the complete power you have to consciously choose what your reality is.
And keep choosing. Everyday you get to choose. I used to not believe that when I was waist deep in shadow. But I now know that was just shadow talking.
Even if you don’t physically see that manifesting into your reality just yet- you will.
Show up for your mindset work every single day of your life.
Even when I have a bad day, “I am having a bad day, but I still know everything works in my favor.” That is generally what my reality looks like during those shitty days.
