How do YOU use the LOA? How do you make a wish? I am in need of inspiration...

[AmayaSakurai]

Hello everyone!

So, I'm in a bit of a pickle right now. I started using the LOA a few months back and everything was going great until it suddenly... well, vanished! I feel like I have no inpiration for anything that I wished for, even though I still want it. I don't feel like meditating anymore, like wishing anymore and I'm becoming depressed for absolutely no valid reason because my life is perfectly fine! T.T

I would really appreciate it if people could share the way that they use the LOA here to give me some ideas on how to use it, because I feel that I need a new approach to this. So, how do you make a wish? In your head? On paper? How do you formulate it? How do you express gratitude? Do you meditate? How do you meditate? Etc. I understand that this might seems like a long request, but it would really help me. And I'm sure that there must be other people on this forum who would benefit from your comments as well.

Thank you in advance for all the love, the help and the support!

Hi AmayaSakurai,
I notice you've had no replies - I rather think that is because people don't know what to say.
If you really think you are depressed - as in the illness, clinical depression - you probably need to speak to your doctor.
You say your life is perfectly fine. I wonder if you are confusing 'feeling depressed' with 'being bored'.
If you have time on your hands you may want to try doing some voluntary work. You will be surprised at how fulfilling it is and, I guarantee, you will see things from a different perspective. It can be a life-changing experience. You don't have to commit to it forever, try it for, say, a month or two.
I think you need to sort out this feeling of being depressed before you can do anything else.
Hope this is helpful.
Regards,
Edge.

AmayaSakurai,
it is great that you are able to apply LOA and take benefit from it. but you said you felt depressed because your life was wonderful? how come? I think it is because you have lack of gratitude. you can rebuild the state of joy like the first time you had your wishes come true by practicing gratitude. start to be thankful for everything good in your life, instead of thinking and dwelling on what you don't have. it is easy to get bored when life is fine; I have felt it as well. but I believe everyday will be different and full of surprises. just be grateful for what you have and every opportunity that's coming your way.

you must've already known the basic principle of LOA. ask, believe, receive. but how we implement them can be different for each person. choose the best approach which fits you. for instance, I am not really good in visualization, so I don't force myself to do it.

I write my wishes on my phone. this is for general things like my financial situation, career, relationship. for tangible things like new gadget I save the picture on the phone as well. this is simply because hey, I carry my phone everywhere and it is small and simple, so I can take a look at my affirmations anytime.

I write the affirmations in present tense. I don't write it like a wist list, instead I write it in phrase started with : I am thankful for the ... I have. for the gratitude part, it would be more powerful if you can really feel it. for example, when you feel happy for something in your life I can say that you already practicing gratitude.

Amaya, you said you started using LOA a few months back and everything was going great, don't let anything or anyone can snatch your "being happy and being in love with yourself". Take things that happened to you right now as a setback, and thus, temporary. Do the things that you love, don't beat yourself. You always deserve the best in love and in life...so smile, there are reasons for you to smile, only if you open your heart to see and to appreciate them

You know what keeps me going? Reading. Learning. Last night I bought 2 books (one inspirational--The Power-- and one "scientific"--The sciene behind The Secret). Knowing whats really happening behind loa, makes me believe and awe about how powerful we are (still not convinced, but reading opens my mind). Knowing gives you power, so if you feel down, look for a book or some kind of inspiration that gets your energy high. For example, there was a book abour vision boards, so pretty!! It had many pictures of vision boards, and i wanted to buy to "rob" wishes ideas haha.

Hi, Christy.  What was the name of the vision board book that looked good? 

[Christy Michelle]

Dont remember the exact title, but it had the words Vision Boards big in front. Next time I go there Ill look for it. It was very creative!

Hmmmm I can only find LOA books when I have the chance to visit a big city and can drop by big bookstores. That is why if you notice, I have pdf files in LOA books and am so grateful there are those kindhearted people like Schenderson who sent a book to me and all other people who downloaded and shared... I agree with you Christy, reading books and be reminded the power I have to design my life really makes me smile
