How Do You Manifest Through Journaling?
Manifestation is the process of calling your desires into existence. Every teacher has their own approach to bringing desires into existence through the power of belief.
Here’s the problem – if you always do what other people tell you to do, you will find yourself dissatisfied. Even when you manifest the thing! That’s because manifestation that isn’t aligned with your inner wisdom will always leave you wanting more.
When it comes to manifesting, intuition is the missing ingredient.
Your words and emotions are powerful forces in manifesting. Journaling channels those powers by bringing your desires beyond your inner awareness and into physical form as words on a page. When you combine intuition, gratitude, and journaling, you are manifesting.
How Does a Manifestation Journal Work?
You can begin with a dedicated journal for manifesting — or simply start to manifest in the journal you already own. You get to decide what approach is best for you. Trust your intuition and go with what feels good!
When you begin writing in your manifestation journal, be open to possibility. The process of manifestation is not linear. Manifestations will materialize in unexpected ways. You don’t need to worry about “blocking your manifestations” or “doing something wrong.” These are stories from the mind (perpetuated by certain teachers) that do not align with the magic of the universe.
Instead of following a step-by-step guide, be curious and gentle with your manifestation practice. Use the journal prompts for manifesting below and explore other methods that spark your soul.
Tips for Quieting the Mind When Journaling
If your thoughts are racing as you try to journal, do something to release that energy and drop deeper into your awareness. Here are a few small, simple things to try. If you still find it difficult to focus as you’re journaling, try a guided meditation or intuition session.
Exhale, exhale, exhale. Breathe out to help your mind release thoughts as they arise.
Set your thoughts aside. Promise your mind that you’ll return to your thoughts in ten minutes when you’re done journaling. Have a sticky note nearby to jot anything down that you want to remember and then get back to your journal.
Invite your mind along. Sometimes all your mind wants is to be included in the conversation. While your intention is to manifest with intuition, you can make it a collaborative effort. As your mind what it wants, write that down, then go deeper.
Move your body. Dance, move, or shake it out. Go for a walk or do a few push-ups.

How to Listen to Your Intuition When Manifesting
When you listen to your intuition and act on the guidance from your inner wisdom, you will begin to manifest with ease! There isn’t one “right” way to access intuition. Try this sequence, then adjust it in ways that feel good to you:
Turn your focus inward. Close your eyes, steady your breath, and exhale deeply when thoughts arise. Take your awareness to the space inside where you've heard your intuition before. (It could be the chest, belly, or somewhere else.)
Tune into your quiet knowing. Go into receiving mode and listen. Your intuition might show up with words, images, sensations, or even complete stillness. This is perfect. Ask your inner voice open-ended questions — and if anything is unclear or unsatisfying to your mind, follow up with more questions.
Trust with open curiosity. Your intuition is part of you. It wants what is best for you. It believes you and believes in you. Experiment with acting on the insights you receive. Play with trusting what comes.
Examples of Manifestation
You can manifest tiny, everyday moments that bring you delight like parking spots and rainbows. My best friend manifests pineapples and I love manifesting aligned numbers like 11:11 or 222.
You can also manifest big, life-changing situations. I manifested the perfect apartment in San Francisco and the birth I desired for my son. I’ve seen my clients manifest everything from unexpected income, buying and selling homes in flowy alignment, to a magical new last name after divorce.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to manifesting! So bookmark this page, grab your journal, connect with your intuition, and start calling your desires into your life.
