Developing Your Own Practice
STEP ONE: AWARENESS
Deciding to be more conscious and aware of what you are thinking, talking about, and how you are feeling is the first step to deliberately creating your life experience. Many people go through the day by taking note of their current conditions. Regardless of whether those experiences are positive or negative, they will recount them in full detail, recycling all of the energy surrounding each circumstance. However, once you understand that everything you express mentally and verbally will materialize in some form, you can selectively choose your thoughts, words, and feelings to reflect only your true desires, and release the urge to rehash the details of negative or unpleasant experiences.
Now that you know thoughts turn into things, you can practice shifting your thoughts in the direction of all that you appreciate about your current situation and your faith in what is to come. This mental shift from where things are to how you would like them to be takes practice. Most of us have been told our entire lives that we have to look backwards to look forwards, and that the only way to know where we are going is to retrace the steps of where we have been. Deliberate Creation is the complete opposite of that approach, as it require you to set aside everything you already know about things, and focus only on how you would like them to be.
STEP TWO: PRACTICE
The more you practice shifting your energy, the easier it gets. Focused breathing (meditation) and intentional writing/drawing (journaling, focus wheels, mind maps, etc) are essential parts of our Deliberate Creation Practice. Practicing breathing and controlling the air flow through your body gives you more control over your personal energy and emotions, which ultimately gives you more control over your reality. Also, when you write things down, you are completely present in the moment and able to be fully align with the feelings of the things you are focused on. Therefore, we combine a variety of breathing techniques with the visualization exercise to develop a Deliberate Creation Practice that fits any individual routine.

Tips For Your Deliberate Creations
(1) Remember that it doesn’t matter what your drawings looks like artistically. This practice is not about the art, it is about aligning yourself with the feelings of whatever you are writing down.
(2) We like to use drawings of the feelings or goals we want to manifest to help us visualize those things in the present tense, but let whatever comes to mind flow on to the paper in any form (words, pictures, colors, etc).
(3) Go with the flow and allow the process to be natural without thinking too much about what to write. Even if you just write down words that make you feel good, you are tuning yourself to the vibration of other things that feel good. So if there is resistance in being too specific or in trying to decide what to write, take it general.
(4) Focus in terms of a current and future reality, not in terms of what you want or what you don’t already have. Instead of “I want to be happy” write “I AM happy” and think of things that make you happy (even simple things like sunshine or yummy food, etc). If the gap between where you are and where you want to be is too wide, it is ok to start with “wanting” as “already having” might be a stretch in your mind, but if you can get there vibrationally, you will get there physically much faster.
(5) HAVE FUN! This isn’t meant to be another thing on your to do list, but rather a gift of focused alignment to yourself. Trust that the time you spend doing this is more effective than all of the time you will spend trying to “figure it all out” throughout the rest of the day. Just be present in the good feeling thoughts and it will be easier to stay there all day long.
(6) Share your Deliberate Creation. It feels so good to know that much more attention and energy is directed towards your positivity. It also put those that read what you are focusing on in vibrational alignment as they are inspired by your good feeling thoughts. You don’t have to share obviously, but it sure does feel great to have support from others and to support them in their personal journey by sharing.
