Manifestation 101 And a Ritual You Can Do Now
You have the ability and the limitless potential to manifest the life of your dreams. It comes down to the limiting beliefs and THE ENERGY surrounding that magnetism/attraction and what you believe you deserve.
It’s a matter of visualizing your highest self, or the thing you want, and how you will FEEL as that version of her/him. Once you can see that version of who you want to be aka WILL BE and start showing up as her/him now, tomorrow and every day until it just bleeds into who you become.
There isn’t one way to manifest, it’s something that’s personal and real to YOU and your own innate powers. I’ve often found that what works is getting super clear on what it is I want to manifest, write it down and figure out the work I need to do to get there.

My Journey with Manifestation
When I was a little girl I realized I had this secret power. I moved from house to house with my single mama and had to leave my friends over & over as we moved to different towns. I realized that I could be sad my dad wasn’t around and that I had to leave all my friends or I could choose to reframe my thoughts and see the beauty in the unknown and the adventure. I wanted to be happy so I decided to be happy (even though things were chaotic AF).
When I was a personal trainer in my early 20’s I helped people visualize their goals, their next best version of themselves, and once we really could get to that place I encouraged them to MOVE from that energy. To walk across the room with that lighter version of themselves. To carry themselves as that energy.
Nearly three years ago I brought a magical little unicorn baby earthside. Before her creation, there was always this part of me that felt incomplete. I would dream of a baby girl. I imagined adventures together as a family of five, but life wasn’t in alignment. I called myself out on not fully showing up to this decision. That out of fear, out of wanting things to stay in the easy flow, I was denying myself one of the most rewarding pleasures in all of life: raising a little girl. It was then that I spoke my intentions into reality. I created a dream scenario/moving meditation that entailed waking up in my bedroom to the sound of our baby girl's coo from the basket beside the bed and envisioned her with me every step of the day. I believe I manifested, or womb-ifested, this dream into a reality.
Do manifestations work?
Manifestations are the sum of our intentions and aspirations coming into fruition. Manifestations identify goals, aspirations and desires, and are created through pure intention. I’m constantly in awe of the magic of the whole thing and the ability to step outside your ego.
Manifestations work because you consciously put in the work and the steps to align with your intentions. It’s a practice like anything else and it requires an input of energy. The best place to begin is meditating with a cozy cosmic tonic, calling them out, and speaking them to the Universe whether it’s on paper or in your heart. Begin planting the seeds for your manifestations and map out the steps to call them into reality with a manifestation ritual.
Manifestation rituals are a beautiful way to set intentions, clear out energy, gain clarity and connect through grounding energy.
What tools should you have at your manifestation ritual?
Palo Santo or Sage
A smudging and cleansing ritual is a great way to clear away any negative or stagnant energy in your space. Since manifestation involves making space in our lives for something new to enter, sometimes old energy needs to be cleansed.
Guided or silent meditation
You can use ones found online or through apps like Calm and Headspace. Meditation is a great way to call in intentions and elevate your vibrations. Meditation and visualization will allow your subconscious to show itself to you so you can align it to what you’re calling in whether that’s more financial stability or a deeper connection in a relationship.
Vision boards.
Vision boards are the best way to put your manifestations down on paper and help you clarify your intention and clearly visualize what you want. Set out poster paper, magazines, and craft supplies to dig through and get creative.
Gather your favorite crystals.
Crystals help connect and ground your energy as you align with your intentions and call them out to the Universe. I’m a fan of citrine and clear quartz for manifesting.
Make a soothing latte or tonic to sip.
It feels SO good to lovingly care for your body and fuel it with nutrient-dense, healing food and drinks. Make a delicious detoxifying Cacao Magic latte or superfood tonics - I’m currently loving this Cacao Chamomile Elixir.
Use an angel card or tarot card deck.
Angel and tarot cards are a great way to tap into your inner wisdom and receive support from spirit and magic of the Universe. I love The Wild Unknown and The Moon Deck. Use cards as a way of tapping into your intuition, inspiration and creative powers.
It’s amazing what happens when you really and truly step into your life, face your fears, process it ALL and show up 100%.
