4 Things To Stop Doing If Your Deliberate Creation Practice Has Hit A Snag

theomzone • October 8, 2017

It might be all about what you don't do.

Deliberate creation is one of those things that's simple, but not always easy. The basic premise is just that, very basic. Focus on what you want and get happy. That's it. If you can nail that, you're home free.

However, as easy as that might be, sometimes things don't flow the way you want them to. Sometimes you're doing "everything right", and you think you're happy enough to manifest anything and stuff is just does not shift. So, you start "working harder" on your LOA practice and usually you work harder specifically on manifesting what's missing.

When you hit a manifesting snag, often the easier route out might be to go more general and focus on your dominant vibration. Sometimes an easy shift or two can uplevel your dominant vibration enough to unlock what's been stuck.

Here are four basic things you might want to stop doing to improve your dominant vibration.

1. Stop criticizing anyone.

It's easy to do and hard to stop. We criticize for a lot of reasons. Maybe you think it will inspire changes in other people when we tell them how wrong they are. That rarely works. Maybe it makes you feel just a little bit superior, and that smugness is seductive. But it comes at a cost that makes it very expensive.

From a neuroscience perspective, there is no such thing as constructive criticism. The brain processes criticism in a similar manner to being under physical attack. It doesn't matter if the intention is "constructive" or not.

Criticism and it's closely related sibling, gossip are not good for your vibration. They might feel good in the very short term, but they have a grimy energy attached to them, and the residual of that is hard to shake off.

2. Stop slacking on things that matter to your body.

I love my caffeine as much as the next girl. I consume more than my fair share. However, I know it's not clean energy. Jittery energy isn't the kind of stuff you want to bring to a manifesting party.

If you are not sleeping enough, you have a hard time getting through my day and getting your basic shit done, let alone manifesting anything new or different.

The energy of your food matters. Everything has an energy we all know that. Food is no exception, and the energy of your food often has an immediate impact on your vibration. It's a place where weak, sluggish, slow vibrations can sneak in the backdoor of your dominant vibration without you knowing it.

It takes physical energy to manifest. If your body isn't getting what she needs deliberate creation can feel like a very uphill battle.

3. Stop telling yourself it's not working.

Just because you can't see it working doesn't mean it's not. Just because your stuff hasn't shown up, doesn't mean it's not hot on its way.

The multiverse notices what you're noticing more than anything else. What you observe is a quantum measurement, and quantum measurements define reality. You cannot shortcut that system.

If your stuff isn't there, start looking for evidence that things are shifting. Be generous in your assessment of what evidence of that change might be. A lot of things have to go on behind the scenes in a quantum universe to change physical reality. Be patient with the process and remind yourself often that things are working perfectly.

Any thought about things not working pretty much seals your current situation in place. Let that shit go.

4. Stop sitting around inside.

Sluggish stuck energy expands when you're behind a desk for too long or prone on a sofa in front of the TV for too many hours.

You are a part of nature, and when you are separated from nature for too long, it's easy to get out of sync with your essential nature.

Humans need fresh air. Humans need green spaces. People need a connection to the greater natural world to thrive. However, the way most of us do life doesn't allow a lot of space or time for those connections. We have to be intentional about making it happen.

Getting outside for a walk even for a few minutes every day has a massive positive impact on mental and emotional health. Getting into nature for a few hours will shift your dominant vibration in a huge way on a dime.

A person becomes more capable of making decisions that align with what she knows, even when those decisions are difficult. She becomes less dependent on constant reassurance and more anchored in her own discernment. She becomes someone who can move forward without needing the outcome to be guaranteed.
