In Difficult Times, Let Your Light Shine 

alien baby 😘😘😘 Just wait, I’m locked and loaded with new videos for the next couple of weeks! ☺️

@@illuminatingjoy *SQUEE*

@@illuminatingjoy yayyyyy - love your videos!

@@illuminatingjoy 🙏

Tricket Duncan I deliberately chose to be somber and not smile in this video out of respect. I’m perfectly fine and was a little tired when I made the video. Thanks for checking on me! ❤️ I have more videos coming this week (already made), and you’ll see that my tone in them is back to my normal smiley tone. ☺️

@@illuminatingjoy now that sounds amazing smiles all around!

Dee Great ideas Dee! For those who still have a solid income, consider buying gift cards to your salon or personal services people, or to your favorite restaurant… or even make a straight up donation. For people like music teachers, consider continuing their services through some sort of video chat. There’s so many different ways we can contribute to each other. ❤️

You're welcome

Lisa Michaels Hugs to you! ✨💕✨

Thank you!

Michael Segura The fourth eye!!! Hahaha, Michael, you are the best! Thank you for naming it and I’m glad you got home safely! ❤️

One of my dearest friends lives in that same area so trust me, I understand the level of fear you’re experiencing. Accept that you’re afraid, that’s a very normal feeling in this situation. In fact, fear is part of your survival skill set. So don’t try to get over the fear instead use it to keep yourself as safe as possible. Your mind will definitely wander during this situation, remind yourself that that is totally normal and you don’t need to be perfect with your thoughts, your feelings, or your beliefs right now. Set your intention to be safe and whatever other intentions you would like to set for the people around you, and then let however you think and feel right be as it is, because it’s perfectly normal. You can be afraid AND manage to be safe. 💕

Tag S. Thank you! Be well! 💕

Somesh Kumar Thank you!!! ❤️

pilaipan paleepat Be safe as well ❤️

@@illuminatingjoy thank you Amy Your reply just made my day💗💖

Exactly! A lot of other people in the manifesting community would say to focus and/or affirm harder to overcome resistance, but that definitely doesn't resonate with me. This is why Amy is the best manifesting coach that there is.

Zelda's Lullaby Thank you! A wonderful young artist made it, I was just savvy enough to buy it 😂

@@illuminatingjoy Haha :)

V Google You don’t need to be positive and believe in your intention, just set the intention and then go about accepting reality as it is. For someone who might be sick, that would look like doing whatever you can to stay healthy or get healthy. For visualizing or focusing, imagine it’s later in the year and you’re telling your friends and family how you recovered from being sick. 💕

Who is Bashar? All I found was the weird channeler guy.

Thalassa that’s him! I know it’s a bit weird. Gotta get past the voice but when you do, the things he says are gold. Same guy also channels Elan. Both are so helpful!

Thalassa there is a playlist of 135 Bashar/Elan videos on the RU-vid channel The Impersonal Life. They are excellent & have been so incredibly helpful for me

@@MagicRhinestoneAdventurePony Thank you, I'll check it out!

Regizzo 😘

Li April You as well! ❤️

pilu91 I’m back! ☺️

@@illuminatingjoy Id love to share with you a success story (or a few actually) from the past few weeks I was able to manifest with the help of your videos. :) It would be awesome to have that contact, but nevertheless I want to really really thank you for being YOU! I send you ALL my love!

As Abraham Hicks teaches with contrast from experiencing what we don't want we then know what we do want.

@@hiltonlive32grnrngr Thank you ❤️

Lia Bunnyears Look up Neale Donald Walsch Law of Opposites to understand contrast. Last I looked the info was available for free online. Once you understand this concept the struggle will be greatly reduced. ❤️

@@illuminatingjoy Thank you, Amy! ❤️

Vyoma Hadkar You’re welcome 💖

JuliaB1955 Keep living in the end AND keep accepting what is, at the same time. It’s NOT living in the end while rejecting what is, because that rejection of what is in itself is not living in the end. It’s because what is is your foundational base/place that actually leads you to the end. If you’re rejecting what is, then in a sense you’re also rejecting the end.

@@user-ej6rr2km8e Not sure how you construe my saying to keep living in the end as denying reality. I live in the wilderness, with no running water. I'm recovering on my own (no help here) from a pulmonary embolism. And I got here by using up my retirement savings to take of my little brother w/Down syndrome by myself for 7 years as I watched Obama give $ to people who took in illegals as he diverted rightful funding from my brother to charity care for illegals. No one is denying any reality from any time over here. That's for goldamn sure. I can still, however, live in the end result. Pls preach elsewhere. Thanks.

@@JuliaB1955 Not sure how you construed my saying to accept reality as a reflection of YOUR situation. Good luck nonetheless, no hard feelings from my end.

@@user-ej6rr2km8e Because you replied to MY comment, which needs no response btw.

@@JuliaB1955 It's a public forum. Get over it.

Meggy S It has been really hard, my thoughts are with you. Much love to you. 💖

briana lowe You’re welcome 💕

Federica Bado Good question! No, it’s not “focusing on it” that makes it bigger. It’s your relationship TO it that matters. For instance, even if two people focus on the same thing, they don’t necessarily get the same result because it’s how they personally “relate” to it that determines their result. If a billionaire focuses on a million dollars they might easily manifest a million dollars (because they already have a million) but if someone who only has $5 focuses on a million dollars they may not be able to easily manifest a million dollars (because their dominant relationship to it is not having a million yet) until they shift how they relate to it. So it’s not the million dollars, it’s the individual relationship TO the million dollars, see what I mean?

@@illuminatingjoy Thank you so much for answering, yea I got it! I totally agree with what you said it makes perfect sense, especially in case you have anxiety about something and you focus on it in a bad way, it's not the focus, is the feeling you have for that thing in particular, thank you! have a nice day, love from Italy

Anna Loveberry Babycakes You’re more than welcome to manifest whatever you like but that doesn’t mean you and I have to want or manifest the same thing. All realities exist and I teach parallel realities. I also trust that if I am in a certain reality then I’m supposed to be in that reality. Of all the possible realities I could currently be in, this is the one I’m in and I trust my that all of my experiences are valid and contextual. ❤️

Deano Mackenzie I’ve manifested a lot of people coming back to me, as for me personally, it’s not a big deal. We humans have consciousness, and because of that consciousness, it’s very possible (and common) for us to change our minds, feelings, preferences, etc. This means that it’s VERY possible that your ex can miss you and want to be with you again, at any moment. Also, maybe even through the experience of being with her new boyfriend, she will realise that it’s YOU that she wants. Find reasons or scenarios to help soothe your mind and somehow believe that hope is always present even in the darkest despair. Think about this: if someone like me can easily manifest exes, then so can you. Why? Because we are all one and the same. You and I are part of the same thing that makes up this infinite universe (the quantum entanglement stuff, or the “we are little drops of the same ocean” stuff). So if I can be a certain way or do something, then you absolutely can too. Final tip: allow yourself to feel down or defeated today. But when you start feeling better again tomorrow, then get back up and continue manifesting her. If not tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow, or the day after that, and so on. Don’t worry so much about how long it’s been taking you to manifest her or how much effort you’ve put into it. It’s all in the past and doesn’t matter. What matters the most is your manifesting right now, like from this point onwards. Start afresh with what you know from this moment moving forward, and don’t regret the past.

D thanks so much for your comment. Appreciate it very much😃 I think I inadvertently put a lot of pressure on myself to manifest her as quick as possible and then feel defeated when I have failed to do. Any specific tips on what worked for you with regards to the actual manifesting? I find it difficult to carry out regular visualisation etc without dwelling and bringing my own vibration down as a result

Deano Mackenzie You’re welcome! :-) I can be very wrong, but based on what you’ve said about wanting to manifest being with her as soon as possible, I would recommend that you make peace with the idea that your manifestation may take a long time to show up. And how do you do this? By actually letting it be OK that you’re impatient and really desperate for your manifestation to happen RIGHT NOW (or as soon as possible). When you’re openly acknowledging your desperation and neediness to yourself, you’re actually dropping your resistance around it. Also, I personally very rarely visualise for my manifesting, nor do I do any affirmations. I am actually quite a lazy manifester. I just know what my desire is, and then I leave it alone. If I start feeling bad about it for whatever reason, then I do my best to release my resistance. Otherwise, I just go about my daily life. If I find myself dwelling on the subject that I'm working on, I give myself a total permission to dwell on it, until I'm satisfied and have had enough naturally. It sounds a bit cliched, but I really go with the flow when it comes to my manifesting. All the best!

@@user-ej6rr2km8e Could you tell me how you set your intention, if you're a lazy manifester?

Ali 1 I’m fine, just showing respect by choosing a more somber tone. ❤️

BEN. W. K. I’ve been writing ☺️

illuminatingjoy I hope you release your damn book soon been waiting since 2016 😘😘😘
