Ask, Align, and Act—these three things bring us into flow with creating our experience.

The Law of Vibration states that everything in the universe, including thoughts, feelings, and physical objects, is energy in constant motion vibrating at a specific frequency. These vibrations influence the energy we attract into our lives.

The Law of Attraction further applies the idea that thoughts are a form of energy. It has traditionally been interpreted as meaning that you get what you focus on. So, focusing on positive outcomes can attract success, love, and abundance, while a negative focus can bring undesirable results.

With this in mind, we ask for things that we think will be fulfilling and bring us happiness. However, it is more correct to interpret the Law of Vibration as the energy of who you are. This means it is more about the energy of your being of which what you focus on comprises a small part. A better interpretation of the Law of Attraction is you get who you are. This means that to manifest more we must evolve to a higher frequency. This means becoming more conscious and aware of our higher selves.

Positive psychology is a branch of psychology that focuses on the study and promotion of well-being, happiness, and positive emotions.

The Law of Attraction also promotes using positive emotions to create the life we want. The Teachings of Abraham channeled by Esther Hicks describe how to use an emotional scale to assess our vibrational state. Love, joy, and appreciation are at the top of this scale.

Barbara Fredrickson, a leading researcher in positive psychology, introduces the concept of the “broaden-and-build” theory, which suggests that positive emotions such as joy, gratitude, love, and hope broaden our thinking and awareness, enabling us to see more possibilities and make better decisions. This theory contrasts with how negative emotions work, which tend to narrow our focus for survival purposes.

The book The Laws of Manifestation by David Spangler describes two ways of working with The Law of Attraction, the old method and a new one that is a natural progression. David outlines a shift from separate to integrated or from individual intentionally to holistic life-shaping and world-crafting.

David says there is a “difference between standing outside a system and acting upon it, imposing your will upon it, and standing within a system as a part of it and changing it by becoming an active part of its will.”

Most older models approach goals as linear and reductive without consideration of the complex dynamic system that comes with each goal. It is a more participatory process not only what you will receive, but also what you will give and who you will become. You are birthing yourself and supporting others in the same. The synchronicity of the system also includes how you help others realize their goal(s). In this regard, by making your goal what is needed, life will take care of your needs.
