The Law of Attraction has been a hot topic for quite some time, and spiritual teachers frequently reference this fundamental law of the universe when teaching ways to attract abundance and live our best life. The basic premise of the Law of Attraction is that like attracts like. Energies that we hold in our energy field serve as magnets to draw in energies from “out there,” and as a result, we attract into our physical lives anything in resonance with what we hold within us.

Many teachers talk about changing our thoughts, emotions, and actions to align with what we want to attract in life, but this is an extremely limited perspective on how the Law of Attraction actually works. It’s not as simple as slapping a smile on our face and getting a house with a two-car garage hoping the second garage bay will be filled someday. This is why so many people feel as if they have failed and become very discouraged when following this advice. We all want a simple formula for living our best lives, and there is nothing wrong with that, but when it comes down to it, there are a lot more factors at play with the Law of Attraction than just attitude and intention.

The Real Story

The Law of Attraction is non-discriminatory. It is not selective with the energies in us that are used to magnetize experiences, relationships, and circumstances to us, and we have a lot of different energies that we emit and hold within us. Our thoughts and emotions are only part of the picture.

Often the most significant energetic influence for what we attract in life are the most dense energies that we carry in our energy field. These are trauma energies, repressed lower emotional energies, and limiting belief templates that many of us are not even aware that we have in our being. Unless we have done and continue to do healing work for ancestral burdens, trauma we have personally experienced, and dense lower emotional energies that we might have repressed long ago, we will continue to attract experiences that match these dense energies to some degree in our physical lives.

This might seem like a big let-down, but attracting challenging circumstances despite our efforts to change things shows us that we have something in us that we need to heal or release. Our external lives are a mirror for what lies within us, and we can use this knowledge coupled with mindful self-awareness to heal these dense energies when they come to our attention through life experiences. The more healing work we do for ourselves, the more we attract what we want in life.

This is why it is so important not to blame ourselves if we aren’t getting the Law of Attraction game quite right. It’s not that we are getting it wrong somehow, it’s simply that we may have energies in us that we are not yet aware of that are magentizing undesireable things into our life.

Awareness is key when it comes to healing, because even our limiting experiences and challenging circumstances hold clues that can help guide us on our personal growth journey. This is why healing work such as trauma healing and ancestral healing can have such a positive and impactful effect on us, even if it is difficult and challenging work. When we dig deep into ourselves and uncover what we have lost or forgotten about our past experiences and choose to heal them, we rapidly open ourselves up to receiving positive and uplifting experiences in life.

The Impact of Foreign Energies

A second factor to consider here, is that we are often carrying a wide variety of energies within our energy field that do not belong to us at all. These energies still exist within us though, and attract similar energies and experiences to us. If we are exposed to toxic people or environments on a regular basis, we can be carrying a whole bunch of toxic dense energy in our energy field that doesn’t even belong to us, and this foreign energy can then attract experiences into our lives.

Additionally, we could be carrying trauma and emotional energies that were passed down through our ancestral lineage. These energies can cause us to play out familial patterns and attract toxic dynamics into our lives, simply because no one in our lineage has chosen or been able to heal the energies of these patterns. This is why ancestral healing and clearing ancestral trauma is so important for personal growth and for living our best life. It is very difficult uplift ourselves when we are carrying around a bunch of ancestral trauma energy that doesn’t even belong to us.

Ultimately, it is important to recognize here that if we are wanting to attract anything into our life in a positive way, we must first address the most dense energies in our being that could be conflicting with our ability to manifest what we want to see in our life. This means healing trauma, lower emotions, and other dense energies in our energy field before anything miraculously different from what we have already experienced will manifest.

It is also important to not blame ourselves for not being aware of the dense energy we might be holding within us. Life isn’t about reaching a certain “level” of achievement or abundance. It’s a learning journey and a growth process, and no matter where we are in life, we are learning and growing through our experiences in beautiful ways.

Ironically, by the time we heal enough to be able to manifest everything we desire in life, the things we initially set out to attract to us no longer hold the same meaning. When we truly heal and attract life through our own essence, the value of life itself and the simple joys of living become our deepest desires, and this is when we know we’ve truly mastered the Law of Attraction.

New Offerings

There is a new meditation and healing shop on my website! Besides the online courses I offer, I will now be offering short-form meditations and healings in MP3 format as downloads. You can access these on the Healings and Energy Activations page on my site.

This month’s healing is a Programs of Mastery Attunement. In this guided healing meditation you will receive an energetic attunement from an alternate version of yourself from a different lifetime that will activate skills, wisdom, and soul gifts that you have already mastered and would benefit from embodying in this life at this time
