Hey there! Why you dont practice the law of attraction no more? 💕🌙🌌
Time to get a lil controversial. My first problem with the Law of Attraction is that it is an incredibly privileged belief system. The principal concept behind the Law of Attraction is that “like attracts like” and “our thoughts create our reality”. According to the Law of Attraction, every single experience our life has been a manifestation of our houghts or feelings. I’m sure you can already see where I am going with this. How do you explain the Law of Attraction to a child who is being abused by their parents? How do you explain the Law of Attraction to someone who can not afford to buy basic necessities to keep themselves alive? According to the Law of Attraction, that child did something to bring about that abuse. Did their “low vibrational” temper tantrum trigger the abuse to manifest? Fuck no. Do you see the problem? If we choose to believe the Law of Attraction is a Universal Law, which it claims to be, then we inherently choose to believe that we have manifested every single traumatic situation in our life. If it is truly a Universal Law then it would be proven true 100% of the time. The Law of Attraction is not a fucking Universal Law. It is a system of belief. A belief system that is honestly dangerous as fuck. It perpetuates a sense of self-doubt, guilt, and shame. It teaches us to abandon our “negative” emotions to avoid manifesting negative experiences. I can not express how concerning this is. This is called spiritual bypassing and can lead to prolonged mental health issues. Do not try to mask, run from, or ignore your emotions out of fear of manifesting something negative in your life. Bad shit happens because of fucked up people, human mistakes, and messy accidents. Not because you experienced a depressive episode and cried. Fuck that shit. The Law of Attraction is a belief system that you can choose to subscribe to but, for the love of God, it is not a fucking Law. I still practice manifestation, meaning I believe our energy has an influence on the world around us. I do not believe that we are subconsciously manifesting positive and negative experiences based on our thoughts alone. There is so much more to the equation. I believe manifestation is more about intention than thoughts. I also believe in the alchemy of our emotions. I think it’s beautiful how we can transform rage, pain, joy, love, and sorrow into something powerful. I choose to believe in an empowered system where we are consciously creating, honoring all human emotions, and reclaiming the power of the soul rather than the ego (thought).
