Bring The Magic Back

Have you ever had those moments where you feel like you aren't living, just existing? Days pass, nothing really changes, and you have no sense of connection to who you are. Remember when we were kids and life felt so magical? Where did those feelings go?

I remember being so in my own world. I can see myself now. Grey hoodie, Adidas soccer shorts, hair braided, CD player in my hoodie pocket & old headphones with a long black string tucked underneith my shirt. I put on my Disney Hits album and the song "Colors of the Wind" plays in the background. It's a chilly fall afternoon, and I really feel like I'm one with the wind. I start dribbling my basketball in rhythem with the music and I am imagining I am somewhere else. I might as well be Pocahontas. My imagination could conjure up anything and take me out of my environment and into my safe place of peace and connection.

At night I would fall asleep to visions of me playing soccer. I visualized one moment in particualr. I'm standing on the goal line and 12 yards away from me is a player getting set up to take a penalty kick. I am calm and I already know where this shot is going, I've seen it a million times. She shoots and I dive to the left, making a save, and everyone storms the field in celebration.

I visualized this moment for years, and then, it happened; I couldn't have painted a better picture myself. It was my senior year of college and for the first time in program HERSTORY we made the NCAA tournament. Not only did we make the tournament, but were hosting the first two rounds, LFG. First game ends 1-1 after overtime, and I already know what's about to happen. I am calm, confident, and know we're about to win. They shoot first, hit the post. We shoot, score. They shoot again, save. We shoot again, goal. Third shot, if I save this, we win. I know this is the moment. She shoots, I dive left. We win. The moment I played over and over and over happend. And after this I really started buying into the concept of manifestation/visualization.

We are magnents to our reality. The things that happen in our lives aren't by accident. If you don't like where you're sitting right now good news is you have power to change it. Manifestation begins with intention. What do you want? Why do you want it? After you have your mind set on intention the feeling must follow. What does it feel like to have that thing? When I used to visualize my PK save I always felt that flutter in my heart. Without feeling we won't be bringing that thing into our reality.

Today I want you to take your power back. Think of one thing you would like to bring into your reality and focus your energy on it for the next few weeks. Pray, visualize, affirm yourself, create a vision board, journal about it, whatever works for you. And if it's meant to be it will; if not, there's something better.

"If this space-time reality has the stuff in it to inspire the desire, it has the means within it to fufill the desire; there are no limitations."
