The Art of Manifestation - Part 1:
Expanding your Comfort Zone

If it’s true that you can only do what you can first imagine you can do, and everything created starts with an idea, then, what you need to do first is

Expand Your Comfort Zone

Fortunately, this is easy to do, applying some simple NLP principles when you are in a trance (alpha) state. Just follow the simple directions below:

In a relaxed, focused state of mind, with your eyes closed:

• Look up to the right and create a vibrant, compelling, image, seeing yourself as you want to be, in perfect health, doing the things you want to do, with plenty of money, wonderful relationships – whatever you want. Make it bright, colourful, panoramic – play with the sub-modalities until you WANT it. Fill it with detail – make it as real as you can – your aim is to include all the detail that would be there in reality.
• Now send this picture into the distance and bring it back to your left, so that you are now looking up to the left at it. If the picture is not clear, go back to step 1 and add more vivid detail. Having created this image, you are now remembering it – and your mind makes no distinction between a remembered event and a remembered mentally created event.

Hence, you just EXPANDED YOUR COMFORT ZONE and MADE IT SO MUCH EASIER TO NOW GET THE LIFE YOU WANT.

That’s not all, though, now go further with me:

Looking to your right side (direction of your right ear) add a sound track. This could be background sounds that add to the ambience of the scene, others’ dialogue – maybe congratulating you, clapping etc.

• Now move the sounds to your left side, looking that way and hear them again.
• Good, now look down to the left and add in your own internal dialogue, such as “YES, I LOVE this!” (Well you do want to have loads of fun and enjoy your success, don’t you?) Tell yourself how great this life is, how well it suits you.
• Now look straight ahead and slightly upwards, as if you were sniffing some sweet scent, and add that in – maybe just that, the sweet smell of success.
• Now look straight ahead and slightly downwards and taste the success that is yours.
• Great! Now look down to the right and add in the physical sensations in your body and lots of DELIGHTful EMOTIONS, spin them up, create them powerfully and ANCHOR them, with a physical anchor.
• NB: If you construct images & sounds on your left and remember on your right, then do steps 1 to 4 the other way around.
• Finally, keeping the emotions strong within you, look back at each location and add it all together: the taste, the smell, physical sensations, look to the left and add in the sounds, look up to the left and add in the image.

Congratulations, you have created a powerful multi-sensory experience and expanded your comfort zone! Now when you think about the things you want to achieve, you know they’ll be so much easier, as you’ve already done them! Anchor this!

Naturally there are other key features you’ll need to implement the full strategy for designing and manifesting your ideal future, for example reliably connecting to higher guidance, ecology checks, timelining etc. that are beyond the scope of this present article.

Expanding your comfort zone is a powerful first step ! Now go out and play and make it happen!
