Combining some good points, with some pseudo science, the book presents a kind of pseudo-religious prosperity gospel, which results in the potential for a type of moralising elitism.

The focus on meditation, mindfulness and the importance of managing your thoughts, makes some good and significant points. These are evidenced ways of improving people’s feelings and attitudes and it is helpful to remind readers of them.

The book becomes more problematic in its portrayal of ‘visualisation� (8%). Science has evidenced that visualising success can ‘work,� because it brings an alignment of ‘inner� states, thus making the mind and body work in better harmony.

But the book jumps from this fact to assert that visualisation can change the ‘outer� world around us. We hear that emotions can change reality (59%). But there is no evidence for such a claim. Visualising an (inner) pile of gold in your mind cannot make an (outer) pile of gold appear on a table. Otherwise, why would commercial companies waste time and money digging mines?

A significant part of the book is an attempt to explain this odd idea, showing how ‘inner� states could create ‘outer� outcomes.

The first suggestion is that Quantum Mechanics shows that reality consists of vibrational energy, so if we vibrate properly in our ‘inner� states, we can change the vibrations of the ‘outer� world.

This idea is a misunderstanding of Science. The central problem for modern science is that reality seems to behave differently at large scale, and at quantum scale. The central insight of science is that you cannot generalise truths from the quantum realm to the realm which we are familiar with. But this is exactly what the book does. So, it is appealing to pseudo-science.

The book tries a second strategy to explain how ‘inner� states create ‘outer� outcomes, when it appeals to the Law of Attraction. We ‘attract what we feel� (8%) so if we are full of positive emotions, we will attract positive outcomes. But this idea is based on the fallacy of equivocation, using the word ‘positive� in different senses. There is no evidence that thinking (ie ‘inner� states) can directly cause ‘outer� outcomes,� like piles of gold to appear. So, it is pseudo-science to assert otherwise. This suggests that when people appeal to examples from their own life to justify it, they are confusing correlations of good fortune with causation of good fortune.

A third attempt to justify how ‘inner� states could cause ‘outer� outcomes takes the book into its odd semi-religious doctrine of manifestation. Described as ‘a meeting of science and wisdom� (5%), it is the claim that the universe is an entity, like a person. It ‘responds� to people (39%) and sometimes ‘tests� people (51%). Thus, it is the universe which changes people’s ‘inner� states into ‘outer� successes, ‘as if by magic� (2%).

The author is careful to avoid identifying the universe with a ‘god,� but she does occasionally use the word ‘divine.� We hear, for example, that ‘Divine timing is the timing of the universe,� of an energetic force greater than ourselves� (81%).

So, ultimately, the book’s central idea seem to become a kind of religious idea with a godlike universe, which converts people’s ‘inner� states into ‘outer� outcomes.

Unfortunately, this version of religion has some ugly implications, as it makes ‘salvation� dependent upon your own efforts. You, and you alone, are responsible for making manifesting work. You must avoid being ‘vague� (8%) and you must avoid ‘fear and doubt� (17%). ‘You can only manifest what you truly believe you are worthy of attracting� (14%). You must be proactive, otherwise it will not work (38%). And you must be ‘grateful� (63%). Then, all you must do is have an ‘unwavering faith� in the universe and you will definitely receive the ‘magic of manifesting� (79%).

This is an ugly moralising elitism which early Christians dismissed as ‘Pelagianism�. It makes the person solely responsible for their own outcomes (59%). So, it has the consequence of meaning that victims are essentially to blame for their bad outcomes. If victims were to just try harder with their visualising and manifesting, then they wouldn’t be suffering bad outcomes like being a victim of abuse. If they tried harder, the universe would be rewarding them by transforming their lives with manifested positivity.

This is wrong, and its implication is repugnantly unfair when it implies blame for victims. Sometimes the world can be against people, whatever they do, and no matter how hard they try to change their circumstances. This is because the book is wrong. 'Inner' states do not directly cause 'outer' states. So, people cannot be solely responsible for thinking, visualising or manifesting themselves to success.

Ultimately, Manifesting is based upon pseudo-science and it implies an ugly model of moralising elitism underlying its claims. It is not a set of ideas which can be recommended.

3.5 stars rounded up

This book has been everywhere amongst the influencer community I wasn’t sure what to expect and thought it would be a lot of “hype�. I bought this book for research purposes as apposed to wanting to learn about manifesting, however I was pleasantly surprised.

The word “manifest� is so overly and misused that it didn’t appeal to me at all. I have always seen it as a term people use to attract “material things� they want without any action at all. However this book took you through a step by step guide of some important self development steps such as gratitude, limiting beliefs and self love that allow you to become magnetic to attracting what you deserve.

I liked how this was broken down, the steps / lessons were all ones I was familiar with through my own self development journey but it was nice to see them together and I had some thought provoking moments.

I think this book could be eye opening for someone who isn’t familiar at all with self love, gratitude and visualisation but perhaps those who are this book might not offer too much.

It was a very short read (150pgs), but I think for the stage I am in of my own self dev journey it lacked substance around the science behind manifestation that I’d have loved to have read however I do think this book is geared towards complete beginners to self development and in which case science may be a little too much to read about if you’re a newbie!

All in all, I’m a big fan of Roxie’s and think she’s done a great job at making some key self development lessons accessible to all in a digestible format!

Privileged, rich and attractive woman tries to convince readers that her success is down to manifesting.

I read a lot of self-help books and, for the most part, find some use in their pages and some affinity with their writers. This, however, is the exception to that rule.

Roxie Nafousi is privileged, comes from an affluent background, and is trying to convince her readers that they should listen to her based on her own ability to manifest a future- helped ably by her rich father, free home, connections, and attractiveness.

Whilst there are a few scant mentions of techniques which are beneficial to self-development, these are but rip offs of those who have done it far earlier and far better.

One to avoid.

Reading in between the lines I can’t help but ignore signs of a conceited author.
Setting out to be a socialite says she wanted to be associated with high profile famous people. She hasn’t changed much from her days of getting with the wealthy artist as she claims, she then got with an actor. She still only associates with influencers or famous people. She wants to be in that world. You can only stay in that world if you also make something out of yourself and have status yourself. So from becoming the nobody girl with no talent she made herself a motivational coach/author, so now she feels she’s part of that clan and feels like she fits in. This is the influencers world. Very hollow, superficial, insecure and chasing fame and money.


All the examples she gave of manifesting was not due to manifesting, it was her reaching out to her contacts. It was not hard for her to manifest these things at all. She was able to use the examples to sell the concept of manifesting.

She also got into selling the idea of manifesting at the right time when the market is booming and self development is on the rise. She is excellent at convincing as most motivational speakers are. There’s a lot of vulnerable people who seek comfort in this form of entertainment. She could not sing or act like her fellow peers, so this is her gig and her talent. Her claim to fame and getting to feel like a famous celebrity that she so longed for.

Her wanting to help people is her talking BS. She’s also said “I know I’m a good person so don’t care what others think� on her Instagram stories. A good person never has to state they are, they just are. She also has said in a podcast “I feel like I come across self centred� to which the host comforted her and said she she definitely didn’t. She loves people telling her what a good, humble person she is. These are the people she surrounds herself by. If she is so conscious of coming across self-centred, why does she continually keep posing and posting superficial things about herself on Instagram? Do we really need to see 5 outfit changes a day? It’s because she needs compliments and attention.

Mi-a plăcut la nebunie🥰
A fost și cartea potrivită la momentul potrivit, când simțeam că îmi pierdusem puțin speranța și eram mai debusolată în anumite privințe. Majoritatea lucrurilor le știam, dar mi-a plăcut mult cum a fost scrisă, structurată, precum și exemplele și exercițiile.
Sincer mi se pare utilă pentru oricine, chiar dacă poate nu credeți în manifestare. Promovează un stil de gândire sănătos din punctul meu de vedere, de aceea aș și recomanda-o oricui.

Чудесен наръчник за използване на Закона за привличане, особено подходящ за хора, които тепърва навлизат в света на манифестирането. Книгата се опира основно на психологията и на научни доказателства, но не пропуска да спомене и по-духовните страни на сбъдването на мечтите.

Trust the Universe �

I feel grateful that I came across this beautiful book. A book that now stays on my bedside table, and I look up to it every time I am in a tough situation.
@roxienafousi shares the 7 steps to manifest and live our best life. While she shares about how we have the power to create and live our Dream life, she shares about how our perspective plays a big role.
I loved the way this book is created, with apt examples, exercises, questions for readers and a practical approach, it's an inspiring read that will help you while you manifest.

While there are many things to learn from the book and quotes and lines to look up to, here are the things I learned from the book and are going to stay with me forever.

🌻on the road to manifesting your dreams, don't forget to enjoy the journey that takes you there.

🌻Notice the little things.

🌻Where attention goes, energy flows.

🌻Our vibe matters.

🌻the universe knows you are worth more than the thing you desire.

🌻sometimes, when things are falling apart, they are really falling into place.

There are many other things to learn from the book while we begin our journey of manifesting. Reading this book gives positivity and a new perspective.

A a light, candid and perfect read.

I've listened to a couple of books about manifesting and this one had extremely high ratings on Audible. All the more reason to give it a listen, right?

Although I do believe in the power of our minds and that everything we do and achieve comes down to our mindset, I think manifesting is definitely not for all of us. Especially the last chapter of this book confirmed one thing for me about manifesting and that is that it all comes down to having faith. According to Roxie Nafousi, the author, there are seven steps, all, with the exception of the last one come down to having the right mindset and letting go of your fears and doubts. The final step is about having faith in the entire idea of manifesting. What I really dislike about this is how that final chapter is basically a disclaimer telling the reader that: "If manifesting doesn't work for you, it's because you don't fully have faith in manifesting and the Universe." I think this is a very cheap way to ensure that when manifesting doesn't work for a person, you can just say, "Yeah, I just don't believe that you have enough faith, or maybe fears or doubts are holding you back from fully manifesting your greatest dreams."

Having said this, I do think this is one of the best books on the subject that I have listened to. The steps are helpful and will definitely help anyone to get into the right mindset to manifest their dreams and wishes. What it ultimately comes down to, in my opinion, is having the right mindset and taking risks to make your dreams come true. That means you'll have to work hard for the things you believe in and this boils down to making sure you have a clear goal to work towards to, then working your arse off to make it a reality. Nothing is handed to us by the "Universe".

The Universe is a recurring theme in this book. According to the author we need to have faith in the Universe and it will provide for us, if we have an abundance mindset. This means that as long as you think there's plenty of everything to go around, instead of having a scarcity mindset, that the Universe will provide. This is starting to sound a whole lot like a religion, does it not?

Another thing that started to annoy me about this book was all the success stories of Roxie's clients. These were abundant throughout the entire book and all were pretty much testimonials to her own work, full of circumstantial evidence that her seven steps system for manifestation actually works.

So, despite all these comments on the book, I would still give it a three star rating? Well, yes, like I said, this book manages to illustrate how manifesting works in an easy step-by-step plan. Basically, if you strip down this book to just the steps, without all the testimonials, you have got a basic understanding of how manifesting works. Too bad that the final step is just telling you to "have faith in the Universe", which basically is just a very easy way to explain when it doesn't work for people and another point to prove that manifesting is not for everyone.

All in all, I think I couldn't have done the things I wanted without the right mindset. I do think we are capable of manifesting our dreams, but in my honest opinion this is all about mindset and not so much about having faith in the Universe. The Universe owes us nothing, we are all made of stardust and we have to forge our own destinies, but this all comes down to working hard for the things you believe in and that, to me, is what manifesting is all about.

Am ascultat-o pe autoare la un Podcast si m-a facut curioasa, pentru ca a ajuns faimoasa cu aceasta carte. Ea nu are in spate studii, nu are nici o formare, dar si-a schimbat viața si a ajuns sa scrie o carte si sa susțină multe conferințe si workshopuri si, evident, sa se îmbogățească.
Nu spune nimic nou, dar cred ca da oamenilor ce doresc: o rețeta simpla la fericire. Poti manifesta orice, daca iti dorești suficient de mult. Ea asta a facut si i-a iesit. Poftim secretul. Nu munca, nu ani de terapie si lucru la tine si cu tine. Tu doar sa iti dorești si sa vizualizezi si o sa vina banii, casa, iubirea, orice.

Sigur ca are si dreptate: mindsetul potrivit face mult din treaba, la fel si vizualizarea. Cel putin asa o arata studiile si cercetarea (nu ale ei, însă; ea are 5 resurse la bibliografie), dar nu a descoperit ea roata si mi se pare ca nu spune nimic de fapt.
Mi se pare incredibil ca are atat de multă rezonanta vocea ei, fiindcă eu nu cred in secrete si miracole sau retete de urmat ca sa fii fericit. Mi se pare ca doar te păcălești.

Honestly bookmarked a lot of pages from this book to come back to. Contains so much wisdom and when put into practice, will genuinely transform your quality of life. This book leaves you with such an inspired feeling to get out there and go create a better life for yourself 😁
I didn’t give the full 5 stars because sometimes it got a tiny bit repetitive or long. But this didn’t take away from how truly great the advice is. Defo coming back to read this when I feel lost or demotivated!

Tai ne magija - tai tiesiog darbas su savimi.
Knyga labai panaši į "Paslaptis" ir remiasi kitais, gerai žinomais kūriniais.
Visgi 7-iuose žingsniuose radau savotišką esamų žinių užtvirtinimą ir spragas savyje kurias reikia žūtbūt užlopyti.
Tokią knygą verta skaityti vien dėl savianalizės.
-------------------------------------------------
It's not magic - its constant work with yourself.
The book is very similar to the "Secret" and uses other well known books as the point of reference.
Nevertheless - in the simple 7 steps I have managed to find my knowledge reassurance and small holes that needs patching up.
A book like that is worth reading simply for self reflection.

xuất sắc, siêu xuất sắc
những bạn nào đang tìm đọc v� Manifest với Luật hấp dẫn rất nên đọc nha

Bản thân mình rất tin vào luật hấp dẫn, nhưng mình không hiểu rõ cách nó vận hạnh. Mấy lần nói chuyện với bạn bè thì mn toàn rec sách siêu dày mà mình thì siêu lười đọc sách dày í. Thỉnh thoảng mình cũng thấy vũ tr� thật vi diệu vì mang đến cho mình những cái mình đang tìm, nhưng những mục tiêu "nặng đô" hơn của mình thì c� hoài chưa được. Nên là rất muốn tìm hiểu xem luật hấp dẫn vận hành như nào, và mình có đang làm sai � đâu đó không?

Cuốn sách này đến với mình 1 dịp rất tình c�. Mấy hôm trước mới nói chuyện với Nab v� LHD, mình cũng có thêm được nhiều góc nhìn mới hay lắm. Tình c� là hôm sau Asbooks nhắn tin tặng cuốn này, đúng ch� đ� mình muốn đọc, sách mỏng, lên ŷ tìm thì thấy đánh giá hơn 4 sao lận, quá vi diệu =)))

---
Review nè

Như tiêu đ�, trong sách tác gi� chia s� với tụi mình 7 bước đ� thực hành Manifest. Đại loại gom chung lại thì là tụi mình cần có 1 tầm nhìn rõ ràng v� cái mình muốn - xây dựng niềm tin là mình s� có được (cảm giác mình thực s� có được nó) - ch� động hành động - vượt qua phép th� của vũ tr� (và tin tưởng)
Đây là lúc mình nhận ra tụi mình đang có rất nhiều niềm tin sai lầm v� LHD, Manifest. Đa phần tụi mình ch� dừng � bước hình dung cái mình muốn và làm bảng tầm nhìn thôi.

Đây là cuốn sách mà mình take note gần như mỗi trang, vì trang nào cũng có ý nào đó hay ho, giúp mình nhìn nhận lại rất nhiều v� bản thân mình. Như là mình có những niềm tin giới hạn như th� nào? S� s� hãi và lo s� đang cản bước mình đến với cái mình muốn ntn? (mình luôn nghĩ là mình không đ� tốt, không đ� giỏi...) Mình có đang hành động đ� chứng minh cho vũ tr� thấy mình xứng đáng với những điều mình mong ước, � 1 phiên bản tốt hơn mình của hiện tại hay không? Và khi có điều gì đó gần-giống-với-cái-mình-muốn xuất hiện, thì mình có đ� mạnh m� và tỉnh táo đ� nói không hay không?

Thêm c� chương v� s� ghen t� và đ� k� giúp mình nhận ra mình đang có "tư duy thiếu" (ví d� như người khác thành công thì mình s� không thành công, hay s� mất cái gì đó vì thấy người khác đã có nó). Trong khi vũ tr� này thì luôn có đ� cho tất c� và mình cần học cách xây dựng cho mình "tư duy thừa" đ� chạm tới tần s� rung động cao hơn "high vibe".

Dù có nhiều đoạn ví d� của tác gi� chưa đ� rõ với mình, nhưng t� ví d� đó, mình t� suy luận, áp lại vào trải nghiệm cá nhân đ� rút ra bài học cho bản thân, nên mình thấy vấn đ� này không có gì quá khó với mình

Nói chung mình thấy cuốn này hay lắm, hay xuất sắc luôn ấy
Ước gì mình đọc được em í sớm hơn đ� tránh được bao nhiêu sai lầm và cảm xúc khó chịu trong suốt hành trình tập lớn :(((

À cuối sách tác gi� có nhắc đến 1 câu muốn chia s� � đây với mọi người
"manifest không ch� giống sức mạnh ma thuật mà còn là phương pháp thực hành phát triển bản thân đ� làm theo"

p/s:
t� hồi đọc sách là mình bắt đầu hình dung rõ hơn v� con người mình muốn tr� thành, cái xây dựng và duy trì đều đặn được nhiều thói quen mới tốt hơn (mà những cuốn sách v� thói quen trước đó chưa có giúp được cho mình). Như là mình tập Yoga mỗi ngày, bắt đầu đi đánh cầu lông, dành thời gian nhiều hơn cho đọc sách, tập trung 100% toàn lực những lúc làm việc...
Và mình nhận ra là, mọi th� khi bắt đầu t� danh tính "identity" (mình muốn tr� thành người như th� nào) thì t� nhiên mình có động lực và d� dàng thực hành những cái yêu-bản-thân mình nhiều hơn. Thấy s� chuyển hoá và phát triển của mình diễn ra rất t� nhiên và d� chịu (một cách bất ng� luôn)
Dù s� thay đổi này mới diễn ra trong 1 tuần thôi (chưa quá nhiều đ� nói là mình s� cam kết với nó lâu dài hehe), nhưng nó là 1 khởi đầu giúp mình luôn trong trạng thái tràn đầy năng lượng, vui v� và yêu thương (c� th� giới). Mình thực s� rất biết ơn trải nghiệm này �

"Manifestēšanā sastopas zinātne un viedums; tā ir dzīves filozofija un pašizaugsmes prakse, kas palīdz dzīvot labāku dzīvi." (12.lpp.)



Vārds "manifestācija" pēdējā laikā nāk komplektā ar negatīvu noskaņu, jo mūsdienu pasaulē, kur uzplaukst viltus guru un tik aktuāla laimīgas dzīves pielūgšana, ir ļoti smalka līnija starp iedvesmu dzīvot piepildītāku un pilnvērtīgāku dzīvi un šarlatānismu. Tāpēc, lai kur arī tu darbotos un kādā virzienā dotos, svarīgi ir būt ne tikai atvērtam pret visu jauno, bet arī ieslēgt kritisko domāšanu.

Nospraust mērķi un doties uz to- tas skan daudz labāk vai ne?! Patiesībā nav svarīgi, zem kādas definīcijas jūs sev to iebarojiet, svarīgi jau ir savas dzīves uzlabošana.



"Sevis mīlēšana ir līdzsvara atrašana starp to, kas tev nepieciešams šodien, un to, ko vajag tavam nākotnes "es"". (57.lpp.)



Roksija Nafusi pavisam kodolīgi izstāsta galvenos un svarīgākos septiņus soļus, lai virzītos uz saviem sapņiem, neaizmirstot pašu galveno- saprast, ka manifestācija nav mistiska labuma iztēlošanās un gaidīšana, tieši pretēji- manifestācija pieprasa aktīvu darbošanos. Es to salīdzinu ar akadēmiskā darba tēmas izvēli. Jo precīzāk, sīkāk, detalizētāk un šaurāk to izvēlēsies- šajā gadījumā mērķi, jo ātrāk, skaidrāk un mērķtiecīgāk varēsi veikt darbības, kas ļaus šo mērķi sasniegt. Un šeit, manuprāt, ir lielākā sabiedrības locekļu problēma. Cilvēki nezin, ko viņi grib. Vēlas būt laimīgi, bagāti, veseli? Ko ietver šīs vispārinātās frāzes? Cik detalizēti ikviens var pamatot, kas tieši ir tas, kas padarīs konkrēti viņa dzīvi pilnvērtīgāku?! Tiklīdz ir skaidri un detalizēti vizualizēts sapnis, ir daudz vieglāk uz to virzīties.



"Bailes un šaubas bieži izliekas par draudzenēm: tās apgalvo, ka sargā tevi no neizbēgamas vilšanās, patiesībā traucējot atklāt visuma pārpilnību." (32.lpp.)



Kas attiecas uz pašu grāmatu- šeit, protams, nav nekādu skandalozu atklājumu vai jauninājumu, manifestācijai ir sena vēsture, tāpēc, ja neesi ar dažādām praksēm uz "Jūs", šeit neatradīsi daudz jauna. Bet atkārtošana ir zināšanu māte, tāpēc tieši kodolīgumā un konkrētos punktos var pieķerties, lai varētu aktīvi sākt rīkoties. Jāņem vērā, ka šī grāmata ir viens no Roksijas pārdošanas rīkiem, tāpēc ne velti vairākās vietās ir atsauksmes uz viņas mājaslapu- cik daudz pakļauties autores šarmam, vai paņemt vispārīgo informāciju, ir katra paša lasītāja ziņā, bet man noteikti ir pāris atzīmēšanas vērti punkti, ko gribētu ieviest dzīvē. Īpaši gribas uzsvērt 6.nodaļu, kas aicina skaudību pārvērst iedvesmā. Un, protams, aicināšana būt klātesošam- to ir tik nepieciešami praktizēt ikvienā lietā, laikā un vietā- it sevišķi, kad dzīvē nākas apvienot neskaitāmas lomas, bet pa vidu telefons aicina piedalīties virtuālajā realitātē. Un, protams, sevis mīlēšana. Kā arī terapeitiskais dienasgrāmatas rakstīšanas punkts.





"Cik bieži tu, aizverot sociālos tīklus, jūties sliktāk par sevi un savu dzīvi nekā pirms to apmeklējuma?" (118.lpp.)



"Mantra ir vārds, frāze vai skaņa, kuru jebkruā brīdī vari atkārtot prātā vai skaļi, lai veicinātu apzinātību, mazinātu stresu un paaugstinātu vibrāciju." (47.lpp.)



Grāmata tiem, kuri grib saprast, kas ir manifestācija un pa soļiem ieviest to dzīvē.

This was just what i needed to feel motivated for the new year.
Its a simple, beginner friendly, but not simplistic at all, intro to manifestation with a step by step guide on how to really set foot into it.

My sister gave this book to me for my birthday a few months ago and hadn’t really cared much about it until i saw her last week reading it and suddenly i had an urge to read it (yes i am the younger sibling) and tbh im so glad of my jealousy issues bc this book was rlly good.

I mean it did get repetitive at times and there were a few pages that were the exact same thing but phrased differently but overall it kept me entertained and i even took notes 🙀

I loved that Roxie (the author) took time to not only give an overview of what manifestation is in philosophical terms but also in science and physics terms, logos rlly does for me.

Plus the step by step guide is really helpful. Not many self help or books like these give you a thorough manuel of how to get where you want to go, like ive read plenty that tell you «jumanji is this so do it!!» but i am a master procrastinator so unless you give me step by step within more steps on how to do it, im not gonna.

So yeah, overall good, repetitive at times but good.

Ho deciso di leggere qualche libro sul Manifesting perché mi è parso di capire che sia un rebranding delle solite idee self-help. L'introduzione di questo libro parla chiaramente di Atkinson, Hill e epigoni. Mi sembra la copia di mille riassunti, dal modo in cui è scritto e l'idea che la vita dell'autrice sia cambiata magicamente. L’unica cosa che condivido è il discorso sui social, e in generale può spingere a scrivere i propri desideri in modo chiaro. Per il resto è la solita roba.

A sosit și primul volum al lui Roxie Nafousi și cu această ocazie mi-am răspuns la unele întrebări ridicate de cel de-al doilea volum al ei.
Pașii nu sunt greu de urmat, ai nevoie în primul rând să crezi că va funcționa, apoi să îți conturezi o viziune clară a ceea ce îți dorești, apoi...găsești restul pașilor în carte. 🙃
De asemenea, trebuie să învățăm să ne iubim și să nu uităm să fim autentici.
La fel, avem câteva exerciții ușoare la îndemână, trebuie doar să fim consistenți în obiceiuri.
Al doilea volum este mai bogat în exerciții, iar primul cuprinde mai multă teorie și sfaturi.
Chiar dacă sunt oameni sceptici cu privire la manifestare (atragerea întâmplărilor pozitive prin puterea minții), cred că e o carte din care oricine poate învăța ceva. Cel puțin, să nu mai fim egoiști și invidioși, să fim mai atenți la noi și la cei dragi nou și să nu ne mai încărcăm cu problemele celorlalți.

Aveam puține așteptări de la audiobookul ăsta, dar mi-a plăcut mult mai mult decât plănuiam. M-a însoțit în plimbările pe afară și cât timp am gătit câteva mese și m-a pus pe gânduri legat de ce am făcut greșit de-a lungul timpului apropo de manifestare.

I am probably not the target market for this book. It is a very Insta book - Shallow, click bait catchy, pseudo-science, written by an “expert� with no qualifications and limited experience of the skill they are writing about, very fluffy.

In her own words “Penguin would be publishing my first book-and I had found out exactly one year, to the day, from when I had hosted my first ever manifesting workshop.� Pg 147

How can this author consider herself and expert? The book holds no credibility or authority. It borrows heavily from those who have come before.

There are better books out there to spend you time and money on.
