You can’t really open TikTok anymore without hearing the word “manifest.” Life coaches, tarot readers, and just about anyone who has found success believes in the eight-letter word that seemingly comes with a ton of power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But how can you use manifestation as a tool in your everyday life? And better yet, is it possible to manifest while you’re asleep? Here’s everything we know about the force that is manifestation and how you can apply it to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Manifestation is kind of like an easier way to digest the principles behind “the secret<\/a>.” It’s basically the law of attraction, which states that whatever energy you put out into the world comes back to you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With the rise of TikTok<\/a>, just about everyone has access to manifestation and the techniques behind it. The hashtag<\/a> alone on the social media app yields thousands and thousands of results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Those who believe in manifestation say you can quite literally speak exactly what you want into existence. Since these tools are free and easy for anyone to access, it’s quickly become a growing trend among people of all ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, it depends on who you ask\u2014but now there’s actually some research that points to this practice having some very real effects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n According to research published in the journal Basic and Applied Social Psychology<\/em>, imagining something happening is a powerful performance-enhancing tool<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, major Olympic-level athletes<\/a> are known to visualize their (stellar!) performance in a game or match before the game actually happens, and doing so can actually boost their performance in real life. Research published in the Encyclopedia of Mental Health<\/em><\/a> referred to this phenomenon as a “self-fulfilling prophecy<\/a>.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n All of these ideas are essentially manifestation in different forms. Manifestation can be something as simple as calling yourself an artist before you actually take any steps to become one or saying the mantra, “I have my dream job,” every morning when you wake up before you have it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n However, if we were able to promise manifestation 100%, it would be a billion-dollar industry, which it’s not. Instead, it’s simply a mindset. You might not get exactly what you want after the first try, but what have you got to lose? (Here are the best sleep quotes<\/a> to inspire a good night’s rest.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to manifestation teachers and experts on TikTok, the answer is yes. Some teachers share different ways of manifestation and different orders in which to complete certain rituals. But one tool is found in nearly every manifestation teaching video: visualization. <\/p>\n\n\n\n According to TikTok user, <\/a>@candicenikeia<\/a>, who has over 300,000 followers and teaches affirmation<\/a> workshops, you can manifest in your sleep in three simple steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\nDoes manifestation really work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
