What Is Manifestation?

Manifestation is the process of realising or materialising your beliefs and desires – the premise of this process is that with positive thinking and regular meditation, your dreams and desires can be brought to reality.

 

However, many people may have the belief that manifestation is the process in which the Universe provides them their desires. This is, in fact, the wrong way of looking at manifestation. The process of manifestation is aligned with the Law of Attraction, where like attracts like. This means that in order to attract our desires into our reality, we have to create a state of mind in which we have the same vibrational frequencies as our desires. 

 

Manifestation with the Silva Method

Based on the Silva Method, there are 4 steps to a manifestation:

  1. Desire: Learn how to channel your desire to live the life you want.

    You need to be consciously aware of the desires which will bring you joy. However, these desires should not be dictated or imposed by society or negative emotions like selfishness or envy. These desires should only be yours.

  2. Believe: Learn how to eliminate the negative beliefs holding you back and how to start believing in yourself like never before.

    By not fully believing in your ability to fulfil your desires, you unconsciously engender an attitude and behaviour to the opposite of your desires. You have to marry the notion that you can achieve your desires. This can be done through affirmations and meditation.

  3. Connect: Learn how to connect with your energy, your emotions, and the energy around you to accelerate your Manifesting.

    This is where crystals come in – they bridge the gap in vibrational frequencies between you and your desires, thereby harmonising your consciousness with what you seek. However, because all crystals have different vibrational frequencies, it is important to choose the right one to match the vibrational frequency of your desire. We will get to that in a bit! 

  4. Expect: Learn how to get rid of self-sabotaging behaviour and get real results.

    Recognise subconscious self-sabotaging behaviours and eliminate them. An example of self-sabotaging behaviour is manifesting a new job, but your subconscious mind makes you procrastinate in working on your resume.

    Self-sabotage can be eliminated through Chakra Healing. Click here to know more about Chakra Healing.

 

Manifesting with Crystals 

As mentioned, it is crucial to pick the right crystal for your desires due to their differing vibrational frequencies. When you have picked the right crystal for your desire, you have to charge it with your intentions. 

We have compiled a guide of recommended crystals below based on different intentions:

How to Meditate with Crystals

After you have chosen the appropriate crystal(s) and attained the willingness to practice manifestation, you may start meditating. There are many ways to meditate with crystals and it’s very much up to one’s preference. Below is a guide for a simple meditation process for beginners: 

1. Cleanse your crystals – The most basic ways to cleanse your crystal are

    • Running it under the water;
    • Making use of singing bowls;
    • Passing the crystal through sage smoke; or
    • Exposing it to sunlight or moonlight.

    Please note that some crystals are not suitable for certain types of cleansing methods (eg. Selenite dissolves under the water) – As such, please make sure to do thorough research on the most appropriate method to cleanse your crystal. 

    We’ll be diving deeper into this topic in our Beginners’ Guide series soon. Do watch out for it! 

     

    2. Grounding

    Start the meditation by grounding yourself to the earth. Place yourself in a comfortable position – you can sit on a chair with your feet on the floor, or on the floor cross-legged. 

    Thereafter, start the grounding process by holding your crystal and closing your eyes. Concentrate on connecting your breath with the vibrational frequency of the crystal. Feel the lightness surrounding you as you sink deeper into the earth.

     

    3. Charge Crystals with your Intention & Engage with your Higher Self 

    Enter your meditative state and activate your higher self by focusing and charging your crystal with your intentions. You can do so by visualising the crystal taking in the energy of your thoughts. As you feel the energy of the crystal resonating with and radiating back into your chakras (or a specific chakra depending on your intention), 

    Here, you should only think only of the absolute present and focus on the energy of the crystal. Slowly release any harboured stress or tension, as well as distracting thoughts that may enter your mind.

     

    4. Return to your Surroundings

    Let your mind experience a sense of calm and clarity. Take a few deep breaths before returning your awareness to your surroundings. Take your time and do not rush yourself. Once you are ready, open your eyes and return to the everyday world. 

     

    Pro-tips during meditation:

    • We recommend using Root Chakra or grounding crystals to start the meditation process – they allow you to be one with the earth and ease you into your meditative state.
    • To better connect to your higher self and enhance insight and intuition, we recommend using Crown Chakra crystals
    • Use Quartz crystals to enhance and amplify the energy, as well as your intentions during meditation.
