The Secret Behind Manifesting Your Dreams

Julie Murphy • August 13, 2020
Here’s a question I’ve been getting a lot lately… Julie, how can I dream about the next steps of my life when I feel so stuck where I am?

Honestly, it all boils down to self love. You have to see your worth, and then you have to start dreaming where you can.

Focus on the Beginning

I know for a fact that we as humans do not have to call in a crisis to actually create our shift and manifest our dreams. We just have to start, even if it means starting small. Maybe the dreams are teeny tiny at first, usually because that’s all we can do at the moment, but once you really start manifesting your dreams, you start to open things up and those dreams only get bigger and bigger.

Your life is worth it. I have watched so many people create disease in their bodies because they’re not following what their dreams are or pursuing their deepest desires. Not all of us know what our true dreams are, so just focus on where it starts. Maybe you just need to make the list of the relationship you want to be in or the job you would really desire. Put it up on the fridge, your car, or wherever you will see it regularly and remember.

I talk with people all the time who want to be in such great relationships but are struggling, so I ask them, “Where’s the list? Where’s the list of attributes we’ve talked about that you want in a relationship?” 

Usually they respond saying, “Well, it’s buried somewhere in my desk,” to which I can only respond:  then it’s no wonder the dream you want is buried away in real life.

You have to put it front and center in your awareness. You have to begin to dream if you want to get unstuck and you have to keep centered in your awareness.

You Are Worth It

At the end of the day, it really boils down to self love and self care. If you’re having a hard time  dreaming, do those little things every day that will help remind you how important you are, even if it’s just a walk in the park, a salt bath, or a nutritious meal. There were certainly days when I was going through my divorce where I could barely step my foot into the tub, but I poured my salts in there and I did it anyway. I told myself, “This is my self love exercise for the day,” and it helped me open back up. It helped me find bigger dreams.

You have to do those itty bitty things so you can start opening up the dream again, because you matter.
