When I first found out about the Law of Attracting the very first thing I did was create a vision board. My first vision board was pretty basic – a bunch of pictures that were supposed to attract what they represented. I believed in my vision board so much trying to manifest my desired reality. I even attracted a couple small things I wanted. But my biggest goals stayed unrealized no matter how much energy I put into their visualization.

That’s the time I started learning Feng Shui and the sacred knowledge of how energy flows into your house and life. “Why wouldn’t I just combine Law of Attraction with Chinese ancient knowledge?” – I asked myself. I knew that I needed to create a vision board template according to Bagua. But I also knew that manifesting your own reality requires a self-transformational process and spiritual help. It took me a couple of years to find out which way worked best. I combined the Law of attraction with Feng Shui, meditation, spirituality, and Transurfing and this is what I came up with.

Step 1 – Spiritual Support

Before you start creating your vision board you need to make sure that your desires will be supported by the Universe. You can fight for getting what you want or (my preference) you can easily receive what you want from the Universe. Remember that the Universe gives you only those things you resonate with. That’s why I’m not starting this article by giving you the vision board template right away. Let’s start with creating resonance with your desired reality. The Golden Ball Meditation is my favorite way to do it.

The Golden Ball Meditation

Ask the Universe for support and guidance in creating your desired reality:

“I ask the Universe to bless me for positive changes in my life in creating the life I desire to have”.

Say gratitude for everything you already have.

Take three deep inhales and exhales. Relax. Let go of any negative thoughts that can distract you.

Close your eyes and think about your new beautiful reality.

Now visualize how a beautiful golden ball of energy is going down from above through your Crown chakra, spine and filling up your whole body with Golden Light. This Light cleanses your body from all energy blocks and pressure that can prevent your wishes to come true.

Now feel how this Golden Light is concentrating in your Third Eye. There is the Aura of Golden Light around you and you feel warm love energy inside and around you.

Visualize how your Golden Light Aura is connecting with the Light of the Universe. Feel how your goals and intentions are connecting with the Universe’s intentions. Now your intentions are resonating with the Universe. And the Universe is opening up the unlimited abundance for you.

Open your palms and visualize that now you’re open to receiving all the abundance energy from the Universe that you need at the moment. Stay in this visualization for a couple of minutes receiving the Universal Abundance energy.

Now focus this Golden Light in 3 parts of your body:

1st Ray of Golden Light is coming through your head – so you can have clear thinking;

2nd Ray of Golden Light is coming through your right palm;

3rd Ray of Golden Light is coming through your left palm.

Now rub your palms and pat your aura from both sides from the bottom to the top 3 times.

Step 2 – Creating a Vision Board

After the Golden Ball Meditation, you will begin to feel strong support from the Universe. Now it’s time to start creating your vision board.

Our Vision Board Template requires dividing your vision board into 9 sectors. Each sector is responsible for a certain sphere of your life. Use the picture below as your vision board template.

Once you divided your vision board into 9 sectors it’s time to fill it up with the pictures of your desires and goals!

Wealth Sector

In the upper left sector write down one of the Money mantras and money affirmations.

Find pictures that are associated with wealth and prosperity, and pin them to the wealth sector of your vision board.

It’s also good to pin the images of God of Wealth or Ganesh to this sector.

Fame, Recognition, and Reputation Sector

In the upper central sector write down the Red Tara Mantra: OM TARE TAM SWAHA.

Find pictures that are associated with fame, recognition, and reputation, and pin them to the upper central sector of your vision board.

It’s also good to pin a Red Tara image to this sector.

Love, Relationship, Marriage Sector

In the upper right sector write down the Green Tara Mantra: OM TARE TUTTARE TURE SWAHA.

Find pictures that are associated with love, romance, relationship, marriage, and pin them to the upper right sector of your vision board.

It’s also good to pin the images of double happiness symbol, hearts, and other love symbols to this sector.

Children and Creativity Sector

In the right central sector write down the Saraswati Mantra.

Find pictures that are associated with creativity or children (if you want to have kids) and pin them to the right central sector of your vision board.

It’s also good to pin a Saraswati image to this sector.

Traveling and Mentor Luck Sector

In the lower right corner write down the Mantra to White Umbrella Goddess:

OM SARVA TATHAGATA USHNISHA
SITATA – PATRE HUM PEH
HUM MAMA HUM NI SOHA

This mantra neutralizes any psychic attacks and creates a protective shield around a person.

Think about who you see as your teacher, mentor, couch. Pin a picture of a person who you see as your teacher or authority to this sector.

Since this sector is also responsible for traveling, pin here pictures of the countries or places in your country that you would like to travel to.

Career Sector

In the lower central sector of your vision board write down the Ganesh Mantra.

Find pictures that you associate with your career success and pin them in this sector.

It’s also good to pin a Ganesh image to this sector.

Wisdom, Knowledge, Education Sector

In the lower left corner of your vision board write down one of the Saraswati mantras.

Find pictures of all the seminars, retreats, workshops, conferences you would like to participate, colleges/universities you would like to study in. You can also pin the pictures of books you like, certificates/diplomas you would like to have and the image of Saraswati.

Family

In the left central sector write down the Green Tara mantra: OM TARE TUTTARE TURE SWAHA.

Pin the pictures of happy families in this sector to attract family happiness.

You can also pin the image of Green Tara in this sector.

Health Sector

In the center of your vision board write down the Medicine Buddha Mantra.

Pick the best picture of yourself that you like the most and pin it to the central sector. Make sure that you look happy on that picture! It’s important! You can also pin the OM symbol, Medicine Buddha image, pictures of a healthy lifestyle (vegan food, juices, yoga asanas, meditations, etc.), a picture of peaches (since peaches are symbols of longevity).

Step 3 – Charging Your Vision Board

Place your vision board in front of yourself. Take 3 deep breaths. Close your eyes and relax.

Visualize that the Golden ball of energy filling up your heart. Visualize how your Heart chakra is radiating Golden light. Imagine that this Light is becoming brighter and brighter and the sphere of its radiance is getting wider and wider. Now visualize that the sphere of Light is so big that it reaches the Universe. Feel how this Light is coming from your Heart Chakra and is reaching all the deities whose mantras you wrote down in each sector of your vision board.

Now visualize that the Golden Light that is coming from your Heart is reaching all the highest forms of the cosmic energy. And all the aspects of cosmic abundance are coming to you from the Universe. Stay in this meditation for at least 5 minutes.

Now rub the palms of your hands so they warm up. And move your hands above your vision board drawing a circle clockwise. Visualize that Golden Light with its manifesting power is coming from your palms and charging your vision board.

Now hold your hands above your vision board (your palms should face your vision board) and read this mantra:

OM

YE DHARMA HETU PRABHAVA

HETUN TESAM TATHAGATO HYAVADAT

TESAM CHA YO NIRODHA 

EVAM VADI MAHASRAMANAYE

SWAHA (3 times)

OM SHANTI SHANTI SHANTI

Congratulations! Now your vision board is charged!

Important Rules

Consistency

Any manifesting requires time and energy. Be consistent in your visualization practice. You can do it in your own way but it’s good to dedicate this practice at least 30 minutes a day. Just look at your vision board, say your goals out loud and chant the mantras. Then close your eyes and visualize that all your intentions and desires came true and you’re living your dream life right now!

Keep It In Secret

In order to make your vision board attract what you want, you have to learn how to keep your intentions a secret. So it’s very important that nobody should see your vision board except you. When people see your vision board they consciously or unconsciously stealing energy from your intentions. That’s why it’s extremely important to keep your vision board away from other people’s eyes.

Gratitude

Every time your wish comes true don’t forget to say your gratitude. Don’t take what the Universe gives to you for granted! This is very important! Unpin the picture that has been already manifested into reality, and burn it with gratitude (do not put it to the trash can!). And don’t forget to replace it with a new one!

Conclusion

A Vision board is one of my favorite ways to manifest. It works pretty awesomely! Of course, some desires take more time to be manifested than the others. But the most important thing is that they all eventually come true, it’s just a matter of time. In my opinion, the vision board template I shared with you helps you to manifest very fast.

First of all, because the vision board template with 9 sectors creates a pretty clear energetic structure of what you manifest.

Secondary, the mantras we use for the vision board add a spiritual aspect to your desires (so that their manifesting cannot harm other people and yourself). In other words, attracting what you want goes along with your self-transformation so you get your desires only when you’re ready.

Thirdly, the vision board is charged with your personal energy through meditation. This helps turn your vision board into a powerful magnet for all the abundance you manifest for yourself.

One of the most important Laws of the Universe is the law of Gratitude. Most people neglect it, and some are not even aware of its existence. But why is this law so important? And why do I say that gratitude changes everything? Simply because when it is violated, there is disharmony between your receiving and giving. Energy stops to circulate, begins to stagnate and eventually turns into a kind of “energy swamp”. And this “swamp” is the place where eventually begin to drown your dreams, well-being, health, success, and relationships. Your life begins to lose its brightness and gradually fades, turning into a routine.

In this article, I want to share with you why gratitude changes everything and how to practice it consciously.

What Does “Gratitude” Mean From the Energy Perspective?

In order for life to be bright and harmonious, constant circulation of energy is necessary. That is, the energy must be constantly in motion in order to bring into your life all the benefits that you need: romantic relationships, money, health, success and so on.

An “Energy swamp”, in turn, can only tighten inside all those goods, that you already have. But the problem is that by “sitting” in this “energy swamp” you’ll never be able to refresh your life with anything new. In other words, this “energy swamp” is keeping you away from your desired life and results.

The law of gratitude is an energy exchange that leads to the movement of energy in your life. When energy moves, it becomes as pure as a mountain river. This kind of energy flow always brings happiness, health, joy, love, and success in all endeavors.

How Can the Law of Gratitude Be Broken?

1. Sending negativity and dissatisfaction to the Universe

Many people, being in a bad mood, start expressing their dissatisfaction with life. They accuse God, Universe, and the Higher Powers of all the imperfection of the World. Instead of being grateful for what they already have, they complain about their belief and fate.

There are so many things in the world that we should be grateful for: the blue sky above our heads, the air we breathe, the beauty of the flowers, the purring of the kitten… and you can go on forever! Each of us can make a list of what gives him pleasure, a sense of joy and happiness.

However, in the daily hustle and bustle, people often stop noticing these gifts. They simply stop appreciating what they have and begin to take all these gifts from the Universe for granted.

Instead of always rushing somewhere in the bustle of everyday life, stop for a moment, look around, and you will find that you have many reasons to be grateful. Write down everything you are grateful for, read aloud what you have written, and in doing so, you will set the energy of your life in motion.

2. Not appreciating all the good things that people do for us

Very often we do not notice when other people do something for us. Or maybe we notice, but take it for granted. By doing so, we also violate the law of Gratitude.

Be as attentive as possible to what you get from other people, and always be ready to give something in return. When you give something back, you make the energy flow. When you take something for granted, you create an “energy swamp.”

Everyone determines for himself what he should give in return. It depends on how much you value the good you get from the other person. In any case, whatever you get, at least you need to say from the bottom of your heart: “Thank you!”.

I noticed that sometimes when people receive from me maybe not exactly what they expected they forget about gratitude. Instead of saying: “Thank you” they murmur: “why did you give me so little?” or “why don’t you give me exactly what I asked for?” and so forth. Karmically speaking, there is always a reason for everything. Even so-called “mistakes” or “unpleasant” experiences have a greater purpose. When we begin to understand this we are able to transform adversity into growth, thus giving ourselves another reason for gratitude.  So accept everything with gratitude. After all, by thanking a particular person, you are thanking the Universe itself. The Universe, in turn, by grasping the observance of the law of Gratitude, will give you more and more benefits through other people.

3. Receiving spiritual knowledge “for free”

I noticed that many people believe that obtaining spiritual knowledge and initiations in any spiritual energy systems should be free, because the energies come from the Universe, and, accordingly, can not belong to anyone. In other words, according to these people’s point of view, spiritual knowledge should be shared free of charge. This worldview is a serious violation of the law of energy exchange – the law of Gratitude.

Turning to history, we will see that for centuries spiritual knowledge was not free and was not open to the masses. However, the fee was different. Instead of the money exchange, the service was used. In other words, students have always served their masters (or temples) for a certain amount of time before they even start their study. The students had to live with their masters for quite a long time in order to serve them and work in the Ashrams. This is how the law of exchange was obeyed back in the days.

Today this exchange is primarily done monetarily. The modern pace of life has led to the fact that modern man simply does not have time to serve the teacher. Instead, it is easier for him to Express his gratitude (in pursuance of the law of energy Exchange) with the help of money.

The desire of people to receive spiritual knowledge for free devalues this knowledge, which leads to a violation of the law of Gratitude. When we receive spiritual knowledge (which is essentially energy) in order to maintain a state of harmony, we must give something in return. The confusion around this law usually is around the idea that all spiritual knowledge should be free. In actuality, it is monetarily FREE to all who are willing to put in the time, energy and effort to discover these mysteries themselves through meditation and deep contemplation – self-discovery. It’s when you would like someone to teach, guide or assist you in transferring the knowledge they have gained at their own cost and no cost to you that this law becomes broken. In those cases when we do not do this, the Universe, observing the Law of energy Exchange, begins to fill this shortage itself, taking something from us in return, as an energy excess. The practice has confirmed that all those who received spiritual knowledge for free, in consequence, one way or another, paid for this knowledge through different kinds of “loss”.

4. Becoming a karmic debtor

When you getting something for free, breaking the law of exchange, you become a karmic debtor of the person who gave you something for free. Karmic debt forms energy bindings between the receiver and the giver, by which the giver takes the energy of the receiver. In other words, after receiving something for free, without expressing your gratitude, a person necessarily loses something in life. Moreover, these deprivations may concern not only the material sphere.

Thus, the Law of Gratitude says:

“When we get something, we have to give something back.”

The most important aspect in the transformation of consciousness is the ability not only to take but also to give.

How Do I Determine If You Are Breaking the Law of Gratitude?

For understanding, if you obeying or breaking the Law of Gratitude simply answer the following questions:

• Do you have money problems?
• Do you have any health problems?
• Do you have a romantic relationship that completely satisfies you?
• Do you have any difficulties in relations with people close to you (family)?
• Do you feel lonely?

If you answered “Yes” to at least one of these questions, there are definitely violations of the law of Gratitude in your life. The brightest indicator that we don’t always obey the law of gratitude is us not being completely satisfied with our lives.

The Deeper Understanding of Gratitude

In order to come to the realization of gratitude, it is necessary to accept the following:

1. There is a single intelligent Matter from which everything emerged.
2. This Matter gives you everything you desire.
3. In order to interact harmoniously with this Matter, it is necessary to connect yourself with it with a sense of deep and heartfelt gratitude.

Many people believe that they do everything “right” in life, but at the same time, they sincerely do not understand why they remain poor, sick, lonely, unhappy, unlucky, etc. But the answer is very simple – due to a lack of gratitude.

Only through the prism of gratitude, can you see the wholeness beyond duality. While there is no gratitude, a person is always in a state of “limited potential”. It always seems to him that resources are limited, he always lacks something, he is constantly dissatisfied with something.

Any discontent is a sign of life in duality. Just think about this – how the “whole” can be unsatisfied or unhappy? The wholeness is everything, so how can it be in need for something? Only the particles that feel disconnected can be unsatisfied and unhappy, simply because they have forgotten their true nature. And the true nature of any particle is integrity.

The duality of perception of reality always tells us that resources are limited, we need to take as much as possible – because then something may not be enough. In our world, people push bully and “TAKE”! But to think that some benefits may not be enough – means to live in the illusion of limited opportunities. The reality is that Infinity has no boundaries. It will give you anything you want, as long as you unclench your fists and hold your hands. Don’t be greedy! Any good is enough for everyone! Do not skimp on gratitude, compliments, kindness, love, and compassion. Become an Endless source for other people! And then you will enter into a beautiful resonance with Infinity!

Ungrateful Mind Attracts Trouble

The meaning of gratitude is not only to bring you good in the future. Without gratitude, you will not be able to stay away from negativity for too long. Sooner or later there will come a time when you let your mind linger on discontent and you start to lose the ground under your feet. When you focus your attention on poverty, pity, mediocrity, pain, suffering, betrayal, etc. – your mind begins to form a negative reality. The Universe puts these images into the matter, which begins to take the form of poverty, pity, mediocrity, pain, suffering, betrayal, etc.

To allow your mind to linger on the negativity means you have agreed to the fact that the negativity has become your daily reality. Conversely, to fix your attention on the positivity means to agree to the fact that your reality has become positive and happy, and every moment of life becomes better than the previous one. The creative power within us brings us in line with the way we pay attention. We ourselves are made up of thinking matter, which always takes the form of what we think.

A grateful mind is always focused on the best. Thus, it takes the form and quality of all the best, and, accordingly, creates a happy reality. We attract what we express! And gratitude changes everything!

It Is  Easier to Thank Than to Ask

Many people turn to God only when they need something. But the thing is, when we ask something from the Universe, we come from a state of need. When we replace the need with the abundance in our minds, we begin to shape an abundant life. Therefore, it is very useful to develop a habit of thanking instead of asking.

Next time you want to ask the Universe for something, instead thank the Universe as if you already have it. So you set in motion the realization of your intention to get what you want. And the effect of such an action will be much faster than when you ask for something based on a sense of need.

Conclusion

The positive mind never asks, it thanks! This is how the Law of Attraction works. We should learn how to stop feeling the need for something, and start noticing what we already have. Gratitude changes everything! It is not difficult to see. As soon as you start expressing gratitude you will feel happier, your life will be easier, and your problems will be solved without any effort. It may seem difficult to believe but this is how it works. Just bring the magical attitude of gratitude into your life and be ready for miracles to happen!

As you know, water is capable of storing and transferring information. Since ancient times, people have used this wonderful quality of water in homeopathy, magic rituals and for manifesting their desired reality.

Baba Vanga believed that water can really help people in health, love, and financial matters. She liked to say that water understands what people really need and always helps. But if you want the help from water, you have to do something to connect with its power.

In ancient Slavic rituals, people threw coins, flower wreaths, ornaments, and even fruits and bread into the water. And only after such a sacrifice people went into the water and, plunged calling on the water spirits for help. We can definitely use this technique, but in our own way, more suitable for modern urban conditions.

It is the best to perform abundance bath rituals during the waxing moon. The most powerful herbs that attract abundance are mint, marjoram, cinnamon, basil, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, spicy cloves, rosemary, and sesame.

Abundance Bath Recipes

Let me share with you the most effective (in my opinion) recipes for ritual baths for attracting abundance.

Abundance bath mix №1

2 tablespoons cinnamon (ground)

3 tablespoons nutmeg (ground)

1 tablespoon spicy cloves

Abundance bath mix №2

2 tablespoons Basil

2 tablespoons marjoram

4 tablespoons verbena

Abundance bath mix №3

2 tablespoons Basil

1 tablespoon cedar or pine needles

1 tablespoon cinnamon (ground)

5 drops of patchouli essential oil

Abundance bath mix №4

5 drops of fir or pine essential oil

2 tbsp sage

1 tbsp mint

3 tbsp nutmeg (ground)

These recipes are time-tested. That’s why the results after performing such rituals are just amazing! But since each person is unique with unique energetic qualities and vibrations you may feel called to make your ritual baths in different ways. You can make your own personal recipes, which will include herbs and oils for attracting abundance. Most importantly, the composition of the mixture for the bath rituals should contain at least one herb from the list above. But do not forget that your own energy is the main component of any ritual you perform!

How to prepare a mixture of herbs for abundance bath rituals?

Put the herbs you selected for the ritual in a glass bowl, then mix the herbs clockwise for a few minutes. At this time, you must clearly represent the image of your own vision of abundance. You yourself must be the main actor in your visualization. Think about what abundance means for you personally?

It is also very important to charge the essential oils you are going to use for the ritual baths. For doing this take a bottle of the oil in your hands and continue to visualize the desired image of abundance.

Then imagine how your happy, bright, emotional desire turns into a glowing energy ball that begins to move smoothly from head to hand and transmits its powerful force to the herbs and oils you are going to use for your ritual.

Next, put the herbs in a bag that is made of natural fine fabric and tie it.

Bath Ritual “Blissful Abundance”

This is one of my favorites bath rituals and a very powerful one.

Before you take a herbal bath, you should take a shower. This is important for better absorption of abundance energy.

Fill the bathtub with warm water. Add one of the herbal mixtures from the lists above.

First, fill the bath with hot water so that the herbs quickly steam and fill the bath with their color and aroma. Then adjust the water temperature for your comfort. If desired, turn on meditative music, light the candles and immerse yourself in the bath.

Now imagine that all the cells and pores of your body are opening up and absorbing the abundance energy of herbs. Feel how the powerful and soft energy of herbs is merging with your own energy.

Relax, put aside everyday thoughts, and smile. Close your eyes and imagine how abundance energy is coming from the Universe  you and you’re becoming One with this divine energy flow of abundance. Feel pleasure, joy, peace, and bliss.

Connect your index finger and thumb in the ring and say the following intention firmly and confidently (3 times):

“I gratefully and joyfully accept now the most comfortable and ideal abundance level that will allow me to be in bliss, well-being and in harmony with myself and the Universe”.

Relax for 10-15 minutes.

Over time, you will notice that each ritual makes you stronger, more secure and confident, and any financial problems after a while will certainly dissolve.

Night Bath Ritual “Limitless Abundance”

With this ritual, you can adjust your energy to the vibrations of infinite abundance. It is the best to perform it in the evening before going to bed.

This powerful and at the same time very pleasant ritual will help you to turn your business into a real gold mine, as well as to build your consciousness with the abundance energy.

Boil 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 4 tablespoons of parsley and 4 tablespoons of mint.

Add this mixture to the warm water in the bathtub and say:

“I’m opening myself up for the limitless abundance. From now on I’m One with abundance. I radiate abundance. I am abundance.”

Take a bath with this “abundance water”. While taking it, visualize yourself feeling good because you have everything you need, all your dreams come true and you get what you aspire to. Be sure to reach a state of joy and satisfaction!

After that, dive into the water with your head 3 or 5 times.

Then get out of the bathtub but don’t wipe yourself with a towel, just put on a robe and go to bed. Let the water with the infusion of herbs dry on your skin. Take this magical abundance energy into your dreams.

The Bottom Line

Bath rituals are a perfect tool for aligning yourself with the energy of abundance. Once you raise your own energy to the next level you will start to radiate abundance, you will gain the abundance mindset and abundant living. Remember that any change you’re trying to make in your life starts with your energy and your mind. Focus your attention on desired reality but don’t forget to be grateful for what you already have!
