The Complete Abraham Hicks 5-Step Manifestation & Alignment Process

What I live by because it has changed me for the better

**Non-members can read here :)**

Alignment isn’t meant to be difficult to experience. Nor is it saved for the chosen few. Alignment is our natural way of being.

When we are in a state of alignment, we are in our highest state of being.

It’s helpful to understand first what Abraham Hicks considers as alignment before we proceed to their 5–step alignment formula.

To them, alignment is when what you think and feel is in tuned with your innerbeing/higherself. They consider alignment as a moment to moment experience, rather than something you achieve once and obtain forever like a university degree. Because of this, everyone at any moment can experience alignment.

Alignment can look like: you wanting to lose weight whilst feeling worthy and eager. Whilst misalignment can look like: you wanting to lose weight, whilst feeling hate for yourself and unlovable. Alignment then can be said to be a state of being where your thoughts and feelings are equal to your desires. Being in alignment is the key to manifesting your desires.

When someone is in alignment, they naturally feel eager, curious, loving, creative, joyous and appreciation. Some people refer to alignment as “being in the zone,” or “being in flow,” or as Abraham Hicks says, “being in your vortex.”

Abraham Hicks breaks down this alignment and manifestation process into 5 steps.

Step 1: You ask

This step occurs without your effort as part of your living.

You don’t necessarily have to consciously ask for your desires; the asking occurs unconsciously via contrasting experiences.

Contrast is when you experience something you don’t want, your inner being knows what you do want.

This is a form of asking that occurs throughout your day. If you have a wonderful cup of coffee, your inner being knows you desire more tasteful experiences. If you have a bad cup of coffee, your inner being knows you desire something more tasteful.

As you move through life, you have accumulated a tonne of unwanted experiences. These become the foundation of contrasting experiences for all that you all do want, which helps paint the picture of your dream life.

Step 2: Source answers

This step does not require your efforts. When a desire is launched from step 1 (asking), the desire immediately manifests in the vibrational/quantum reality.

This is what it means “ask, and it is given.” On an energetic level, you unconditionally receive what you want immediately. You only need to maintain the following next steps to allow it to come into physical manifestation.

Step 3: Receiving mode

This step now requires your conscious efforts.

At all times, you are either in two states of being in relation to your desires:

1. Receiving mode, or
2. Resistance mode

Both modes are a reflection of your emotional state of being.

In order to receive your desires, you must be in a receiving mode. This is a higher emotional state of being, such as appreciation, joy, curiosity, or love. The resistance mode is what keeps our desires away.

If these higher emotional states are too difficult to experience in your immediate moment, the next state of allowing is to be in ease. As long as you can feel ease, you are allowing.

Each person will have their unique ways of being in their receiving mode. Maybe thats scripting, dancing, singing, painting, or meditation. I love listening to music to get myself in a receiving mode. I’ve created a spotify playlist just for that.

Step 3 is about understanding what the receiving mode feels and looks like, and doing it whatever it takes to be in it. This is alignment.

Step 4: Maintain alignment

This is about learning to make alignment your dominant way of being, rather than just a spur of the moment. Your desires will only manifest if you can maintain a state of alignment.

To do this, you must find reasons to feel good. The average folk feels angry when a car cuts in front and feel joyous only when they hit all the green lights. This is because most people think and feel based on their current physical reality. They are reactive to their environment. But to maintain alignment long enough to make it your dominant vibration, you must feel good regardless of what's happening around you.

This can often look like someone being delusional about their desires. Athletes often feel and see them winning a gold-medal before it occurs. It’s not uncommon to hear them describe their journey to winning involving relentlessly imagining their win, and visualising their trainings. And they do this consistently. They maintain alignment until their desires physically manifest.

We are taught to only believe once we see. But step 4 requires us to believe until we see. This step is about turning step 3 practices into routines. Your priority and responsibility is simple: to only feel good throughout your day, or at the minimum, feel at ease.

Step 5: Appreciate the contrast

As you move through your day, contrasting experiences is inevitable.

It’s easy to misinterpret this as your desires not manifesting or something going wrong. This way of thinking will only block your desires further. You need to be able to see unwanted experiences as more opportunities of gaining clarity on what you want. Because as you grow, your desires may change.

When you see your contrasting experiences as neutral and informative instead of something “bad”, you approach them with a higher state of awareness. You may have heard many other spiritual teachers encourage us to approach all happenings with a state of curiosity rather than labelling them as good or bad. This enables us to remain in the state of ease instead of resistance.

It’s helpful to know that contrasting experiences are inevitable. We cannot avoid or push them away. They are necessary parts of expansion. When you live with this understanding, you signal to the universe your complete trust in it’s orchestration. You’ll find yourself releasing control over the what, how and when details, and begin to lean more into the place of being and experiencing. This is someone who understands “life is happening for you, not to you.”

I hope this brought you joy as much as it did for me writing it :) Have a magical Thursday, fam!
