I like to add "Now what?" After I have a feeling of expectation. Ex: "She already likes me, Now what?" And that helps me shift my focus to other things rather than my desire
@@TR-vj6sq the only rules are that you MAKE the rules! If you think you have resistance, you'll have resistance. If you think not dropping it will make sure you don't get your manifestation, then you won't. Period
Haha, I miss you all too! 😘 You know how I am... one minute I’m posting videos and the next I’m cloud watching and people be like... “Amy! Where did you go!??” And I’m like... “did you see the pretty cloud!?” ☁️👀 😅😂
True! I used to think we had to visualize or script once in a while to keep the motion going but now I understand that if at least once we focus clearly on our desire and it feels good, the ball has been set in motion.
Literally crying my heart out right now. I've been very frustrated for four months now trying to manifest this one thing that I could never get to actualize. I've been convincing myself every single day that "it is here" but I know it's not and and that disappoints and frustrates me every single time. I've always been very visual and feeling has never been a problem for me as I'm a very emotional person as well but these last couple of months have been tough. I already came to a point where every time I would try to affirm that my expectations are already here, I would just suddenly cry-- because I know they're not. For the the first time after a long time, I said the words "I hope my prayers finally manifest," I just started crying. I feel like a very heavy weight has been lifted off my shoulders and that there was this sudden woosh of comfort. And as I'm typing this, I realized that I'm just so tired of thinking that I am my own creator that gets me the things I pray for. I prayed with the words "I hope my prayers finally manifest" and it felt like telling a Creator far bigger and greater than I am "Hey, I want this and I know you're gonna give me this like you always do because you love me." Wow. I feel so light right now it's crazy. Thank you. I saw a comment here saying we should make a holiday to honor you and I'm with him on this one. Thank you and I hope you're having an amazing day.
@@Mbeepyd I would say yes. :) But I still went through such a difficult time after writing this comment. Letting go and not caring was such a huge part in my “success” which was hard because what I was manifesting during this time was money. And every time I was faced with bills and people were depending on me, I couldn’t help but waver and get disappointed. But yeah. I’m in a much better financial situation now, I can say. :) Keep going and let go. I know a lot of believers wanna say that you are God but if that feels like too much of a responsibility for you, let God. Know that someone out there is looking out for you and they are always in your favor. You just have to believe and rest in that knowledge.
You are 100% the best teacher there is. Whenever I get all excited and expect my desire to happen, it never would. Let go of that expectation and boom it happens!!! I do feel like most coaches say, believe it and expect it, and that never worked for me and I would get so frustrated and doubt myself. You were the one to validate everything for me and to know I am doing it right!! Thank you Amy 😀
I always viewed the idea of expectation as totally ridiculous and impossible for the mind to believe in. What kind of person is so convinced they will get something really great to the point they are 100 % in expectation.
This just changed the game for me. Ive been having issues releasing. So I just used 'I hope this happens' instead of 'why isnt it happening' and suddenly I felt all giddy and light headed and excited, but also relaxed, which I havent had since just before I manifested a big thing the first time. Im so happy.
I don’t feel very relieved when I say hope, but I do like to say I believe that it can happen and I feel like it will happen or I think that it will happen. It’s still not 100% security but it feels better for me!
Hope didn’t pan well for me at all. I feel more stressed with the word hope. It brings in an element of uncertainty. I am more comfortable with I know it will happen and there is no going back. Welcome back Amy! You are one of my favs!
What really helped me with resistance is Abraham's advice on thinking "I like this and that" instead of "I have/want/etc this and that". Even "I like having..." is much less resistance than "I have...". Some also say that setting the time limit on desire helps, but forgetting time worked much better for me. You are on the path of creating it, so you will. Btw, "back and forth between accepting where you're at and focusing on what you want" is exactly what's going on for me at the moment and the results are stunning. Appreciate what you have(or have experience of), plan for even more.
This is literally so amazing? I was being so depressed all day trying to release resistance around expectation and I couldn't accept that I was in expectation and that it is normal etc., but now I feel so much more confident! Thank you so much Amy
@@illuminatingjoy I'm so happy you are back. You are my fav :) I kept checking for your videos for last month or so. Do you have a plan for personal coaching in future?
I was listening along on my drive home and decided wow! Change things to hope! I feel more confident saying hope. Anyway, I was approaching a red light and went "I hope it turns green!" And I snapped. Simultaneously the light turned green. I gasped out loud 😂 love it!
An analogy just popped into my mind and it is helpful to me, maybe it will help others too. I’m going to start to flirt with my desires at a distance. Have you ever had a crush, maybe you were in school at the time - and you know they like you too? You can feel it in the way they smile at you, the way they talk, it’s a little softer than the way you’ve seen them talk to other people. You like them, they like you, neither of you need to say anything or are going to say anything. You feel like at some point, you will end up hooking up with this person but, not yet. No, right now, you just flirt. Sometimes shamelessly. You’re letting things unfold in their own time, but there’s a twinkle and a wink to it. You know you’ll be ok if you don’t hook up with this person, it isn’t that serious, but you’re going to and in the meantime, the dance is fun. I am going to start doing this with a Le creuset 5.5 qt Dutch oven I plan to bake all the bread in. During the day I’m just like I see you baby, you sexy little cast iron Dutch oven butt with your metal top and ability to withstand 500 degrees, mmmm. YES. That’s hot, baby! You don’t need to get your little ass over here yet I gotchu- all in good time sweet cheeks - I gotchu.
I intended to see a rainbow when your manifest a rainbow video came out and I saw it everywhere but in real life! Haha my dreams, in pictures, tv. And when I finally saw one I had completely forgotten about that intention, I’m hoping to see another rainbow this week and actually get a picture! 🌈 thanks for all you do Amy. You’re a life changer
Finally!! After a whole year struggling with mantras, meditations, and aligning, etc etc (of course they’re good and help a lot)... but this is for me!!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗 this soothes me so much, this is it, this is what I needed to hear; I’ve been putting so much pressure on myself 😓. I’ve been wondering lately why when I was younger I could manifest a lot easier, and it was because I said to myself “I hope...” and that gave me a happy feeling of expectation and it was great, no resistance.... THANK YOU SO MUCH ☺️
I totally manifested this 😂🤩 just yesterday I watched basically all Amy's videos and asked for the Universe to show me my blocks and give me guidance. And then came this video 🥰 Love you Amy! Thanks for this 🥰
@@illuminatingjoy I went from beating myself up to jumping up and down with glee, like a kid, withing seconds! I just love your perspective. It is always helpful. And I am a genius for attracting your channel!
All the good things that I am expecting for myself... is always on my way...🙏🙏🙏. All the good things that you are expecting for yourself is also on your way...🙏🙏🙏
AMY, oh my gosh! I have been binging your videos and now here you are! You are the one who has helped me the most with manifestation. Nearly every other LOA guru does not allow you to think about negative thoughts and almost shames you into feeling those thoughts. We should be honest with our fears, doubts, and negativity, because we're human ,and slowly work on accepting your feelings and working your way from there..
Wow! I needed this video! I do get fearful and frustrated when my expectations are high and I start feeling desperate! I needed to find a way to calm down and let go of the resistance!
This advice really helped me! Thank you! I know manifesting works so when I see it's not happening I start to stress about it. I just tried letting go of my expectations and I feel so much better! I don't even really care if it will happen or not now!
Love Amy’s videos! It’s such a calming, logical, and effective approach! Whenever I get stuck despite years of applying and knowing it works, I look up one of her videos, and voila! Calmer state! Thank you!
This makes so much sense. It helps to have the baby steps on certain areas where you have resistance. I heard “I hope” would be coming from a place of lack but if we’re already there everytime we affirm then of course this helps! Brilliant!
Manifesting is truly a giant paradox! I started getting into Neville because others didnt believe in getting specific and now deep into it...I truyl dont care who I end up with! I LOVE MYSELF!
I just binged watched about 11 of your videos and you have just lifted 3yrs of resistance. I always knew my excessive wanting to get it right by the book and constantly watching yet another Abe Hicks video to figure out what I was missing was actually hindering me and listening to you just now has literally taken me off the hook 🪝 I appreciate you Amy with everything I’ve learned up to this point I know my manifestations are possible and I expect to see them and most importantly I HOPE 🤞🏽 that I’m right 😉
Omg! I knew I was feeling tension and resistance, but I couldn’t identify where exactly it was coming from. This video gave me so much comfort and clarity. Thank you!
Look at it this way Your expectations are a natural indicator to your beliefs and self image If you don’t feel loved you don’t expect to be loved If you do feel loved you expect love and to experience love
You know what’s funny? I did the “I expect this to happen X I hope this will happen” and I feel the exact same thing which is tense. But then thinking about it I guess it’s because my mother tongue is Portuguese and even though we have a word for expectation (expectativa) and hope (esperança) when we conjugate them as a verb they become the same word so “I hope” and “I expect” are both “eu espero”. This quickly became me realizing how beautifully our languages shape how we feel differently about things 💕 (I’ll see if I find a way to make the word change in Portuguese hahaha)
I get my manifestation when I let it go. Otherwise I'll never get it. Sometimes it's so hard to get detached from your desire especially if you manifest an SP
OMG I've been trying to manifest a video from you on this EXACT topic and by exact I really do mean that this was exactly what I wanted! I guess it means that your recent video on how to manifest exactly what I wanted really worked! I hope you're doing well and thank you so much for this video. (:
Hope still doesn't feel that great to me, but saying some thing like "That would be so cool if that happened!" seems good and sort of like hope with different words. Most of all I wanted to say I LOVE your rainbow logo at the end of the video. And good to see you, Amy. :)
Good comment!! Hope is only to release resistance around expectation. So if Hope feels off (which it will at various times if you are in other states) then yes, “that would be cool” or “what if” or “wouldn’t it be nice” work! It’s all about releasing resistance so always pick wording that relaxes you in the moment! 😘
Today is a Really Great Day. Are you using a computer or a phone to watch videos? I only use emojis when I use my phone because they are easily accessible in the keypad. I have to google and then copy/paste emojis when I’m the computer (which takes a minute). I don’t have an iPad so not sure about that device. 🌈❤️✨
I do like the topic of the 'emotional guidance scale'. Personally, I think it is quite exciting! I think this video is really helpful if a person wants to release resistance around a particular subject.
Example story using this although this video confirmed my experience; so I’m really good at manifesting my days at work, create mtgs, cancel meetings, cancel workshops, people leaving, people coming, etc… so last week I had a workshop I really didn’t want to do just cause I’m burnt out; I did my thing of visualizing it cancelled, let it go cause no biggie if I have to do it; day before I know I said to myself I really hope this gets cancelled cause I’m exhausted, let it go - 1 hour later guess what?? Cancelled. I got rest. ❤️
Yes! I often have to talk to my self and tell my ego to SHUT UP. (LOL..my dogs think I'm crazy..)I don't recommend to talk to your ego in public however...Do whatever you have to do to turn off the noise...Don't give up friends. Thanks for your videos Illuminating Joy!😘
I love your channel and I feel it's evidence of me vibrating higher. You have so much info that I haven't heard before and I love it! Much love and appreciation from one manifestation coach to another ❤️
I think that maybe a better way to look at it is to let go of the attachment. It’s always so much easier to manifest something that you can “take it or leave it”. If you feel you “need” something, that’s automatically creates the is attachment and if you don’t let go of that feeling of need it doesn’t matter wether you say you hope or expect something because that feeling of “need” keeps you bound. Trust me I have been going through the absolute sludge the last 6 months and it doesn’t help that there is SO MUCH disinformation out there when it comes to manifesting. At the end of the day, manifesting is just doing your spiritual evolution which is letting go of attachments and realising your true whole nature. This is what I have come to 🙏 thank you to the poster for helping me get over the line you just have me that last missing piece of the puzzle for me to make sense of it. Love and gratitude 💛✨🙏
When I think of hope I associate that with some degree of powerlessness to external feedback. Trust and surrender feels like a better word for me. If you trust something is going to happen you don't need it to show up now because you know it's inevitable sooner or later ✨
Hi Amy, I've been following you for a while - on youtube! Just so you know lol and I just want to say thank you for all your videos. You're truly amazing and always give me hope:) your videos have always popped up at the right time for me and I just want to thank you for sharing your knowledge and advise✌
