How to Manifest Your Mate!


by Jill Crosby

Chemistry between two people is a funny thing and “ideal mates” come in all shapes and sizes.

 

Most singles on a conscious path are relatively happy and content with their lives. However, many would prefer to be in a loving, spiritual partnership with a person who enhances their life and offers the opportunity to thrive in a deep, spiritual love. Finding that kind of love these days can be a daunting challenge. Incorporating the following tips and techniques makes manifesting true love easy!   

Get Love: When we love ourselves unconditionally, we create loving energy within ourselves, which then draws loving energy in our direction. Remembering that we are divine energy makes loving ourselves unconditionally come naturally. We all came from the same divine energy and everything is made of this energy—including us! In other words, we are “God” having a human experience, so we must forgive ourselves for making mistakes, learn the lessons from “being human,” and move on! When we fully immerse ourselves in unconditional love of self we feel exuberant, joyful and deeply peaceful.

To help get to an unconditionally loving place, meditating on self-love and the connection to our divine energy every morning and evening is helpful. For example, you might begin by closing your eyes, taking in some deep breaths, and getting centered and relaxed. Once you are in a meditative state, feel your connection with divine energy and know that you are divine. Feel your strong love deep in your soul. Allow yourself to feel grateful, happy and in love with yourself.

When we remember and embrace our divinity, we are grounded in self-love and wholeness. That is, we are not looking to others to “complete” or validate us. The goal is to feel whole and complete and in love with self. In this way we may be fully present when interacting with others.

Get Clear:  Once grounded in self-love, the next step is to get clear about qualities in an ideal mate. A great exercise on getting clear starts with listing all of the qualities of an ideal partner. Write everything that comes to mind. This might include integrity, honesty, good sense of humor, active, healthy, intelligent, great chemistry, wants kids, financially stable, loves to travel, etc. Next, sort the qualities into “must haves” and “preferences.” For example, a must have might be “he must be a non-smoker” and a preference might be, “I prefer her to be attractive.” Remember, we are all expressions of divine energy in human bodies. The body is temporary and the real connection is with another’s soul. Chemistry between two people is a funny thing and “ideal mates” come in all shapes and sizes. While height, weight, hair and eye color may be preferences, lifestyle, activity level, spirituality and a base of common interests are more important.

After creating a list of must haves and preferences, write a short story describing an ideal day with your ideal mate. Make it multi-sensory, use present tense and live it up! Make sure to include feelings and activities you would like to share. For example: “I wake up in the morning and feel the tropical breeze on my face, smell the gardenias in the air and hear the peaceful sound of the ocean waves off our balcony. I roll over and smile at my husband. His eyes light up as he hugs me and tells me how much he loves me. He is the most loving, intelligent, kind, funny, friendly, environmentally conscious, spiritual man I have ever met. My heart swells with joy and gratitude, feeling so content and so in love! After our sumptuous breakfast and morning meditation we go for a swim in the ocean with the dolphins that frequent the cove where we live …and so on...” Going through the entire ideal day like this will not only manifest the ideal mate; it will create the ideal life.

Get Grateful: To get grateful, read the story out loud and feel your joy and gratitude, as if it has already happened.  Really turn up those feelings and emotions. Then let it go. Whenever the story comes to mind, however, imagine the wonderful life you’ve written about and know that it’s done. Continue to reinforce this manifestation by feeling grateful throughout the day. Any feelings of doubt or skepticism will slow down the process or even prevent it, so be confident and know it’s done.

Get Busy: The final step in manifesting your mate is to take action! Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul states, “You can’t just wish for a Cadillac while sitting in your living room and have one show up in your driveway… So what you have to do is take action—with faith that it’s going to come true.” The best way for singles to take action is to put themselves in situations where they can meet other eligible singles. Joining activity groups, taking classes and doing the things you enjoy are all good action steps. Joining an online, spiritual dating site provides a targeted “pool” of conscious singles and speeds up the manifestation process. Be open to meeting and dating a variety of people in the looks department allows for more choices (remember, chemistry is a funny thing). Being pro-active and initiating contact is also important, as is listening to one’s intuition and allowing divine energy to guide one toward making contact.

Always trust that the divine love you feel for yourself will be reciprocated by the right person. Just relax, be authentic and enjoy the process. Continue to feel grateful in advance and watch the sparks fly!
