Honestly, I've used manifesting as a tool to get what I want and it totally works. Though let's face it, it does sound a bit woo-woo, and skeptics might say there's no evidence to back it up.
Well, think again…the neuroscientists are studying what happens when the brain manifests. This might surprise you.
Manifestation is the process of bringing something into your life you desire, whether it be a new job, a relationship, or just an overall feeling of well-being. It can be an incredibly powerful tool to get what you want in life.
To truly master the art of manifestation, we must first understand what happens in our brains when we manifest. Let's explore the psychology behind manifestation and how different parts of your brain interact while manifesting.
At its core, manifestation is about creating a positive shift in the way you think and feel. It’s about shifting your focus away from what you don’t have or want and focusing on what you do want.
When we manifest, our brains are sending out messages to the universe which then start to attract the desired result back into our lives and the science behind this phenomenon is fascinating.
Neuroscientists are studying how different parts of the brain interact when manifesting. What they’ve found is that manifestation works by using the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for goal-setting and decision-making.
When you think about something you want to manifest in your life, signals from this part of your brain are sent to the rest of the cortex which then helps you focus on what you want and take action towards it.
This process activates the reward center in your brain, releasing dopamine which creates a feeling of pleasure and excitement.
Other parts of the brain that play an important role in manifestation include the amygdala, responsible for emotion regulation, and the insula, which is responsible for self-awareness. Activating both of these areas helps you stay present and focus on what you want to manifest in your life.
Studies have also shown that the hippocampus, a part of the brain associated with memory formation and storage, is activated during manifestation as it helps individuals recall past experiences related to their desired outcome.
A key factor in successful manifestation is neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity refers to how our brains are able to form new neural pathways and create new habits or behaviors even when we’re not consciously aware of them. Through manifesting, our minds become hardwired to focus on what we want and take action toward achieving it.
By repeatedly focusing on our desired outcome and taking action toward it, we can effectively create new neural pathways in the brain that are conducive to manifestation.
Overall, understanding the psychology behind manifestation is key to creating lasting results in your life. By harnessing the power of neuroplasticity and activating various parts of the brain while manifesting, you can begin to bring your desires into your life and experience positive results.
With this knowledge in hand, you can now confidently manifest the things that you desire in life, knowing that you have the science behind it to back you up,
7 ways to start manifesting
“I’m capable and confident in achieving my goals”
“I am worthy of abundance”, and “I attract success into my life”.
“I am strong and able to achieve whatever I set my mind to”

3 ways to practice gratitude while manifesting include:
By consistently engaging in these gratitude practices, you can develop an attitude of appreciation that will help to bring more positive energy into your life and encourage successful manifestation.
Be open to the possibility of achieving whatever it is you want. Doubting yourself and believing that you’re not capable of achieving your goals will only hinder your progress and make it difficult for you to manifest what you want. Remember that your brain is listening to what you tell it. Knowing that anything is possible can give you the motivation and confidence to take action and start manifesting.
Speak to yourself with kindness, just like you would a best friend and focus on the things that you can do rather than what you cannot.
By believing in yourself and putting in the effort, you can manifest anything you desire. With focus and dedication, anything is possible you can make your dreams a reality and you can begin creating lasting changes in your life. With this knowledge in hand, seize every opportunity that comes your way and make the most out of it.
Manifestation is a powerful process that can be used to create the life you desire. With this knowledge of what actually happens in your brain when you manifest, you can learn how to best tap into its power and bring all the things you want into your life.
Good luck! May all your manifestations come true.
