Coconut Ice lollies and The Law of Attraction

As a Vision Board Coach I am pretty familiar with the Law of Attraction. A Vision board is one of the most powerful tools you can use to supercharge your results in terms of manifesting what you want in your life and if you have watched the movie "The Secret" or read the book you will already be pretty familiar it .
The Secret was released way back in 2006 and probably the biggest thing that most people remember about it is when John Assaraf managed to manifest his dream house; that has to make you sit up and take notice.
But even though I’m a convert and I know it works I still get a real buzz every time it does so I thought I'd share the story of my latest experience of it.

When the glorious spell of weather we are currently experiencing started a few weeks back my thoughts turned to summer clothes ,summer holidays and summer foods! I love the foods particularly. Sunny weather makes me think of brightly coloured juices, chicke
Caesar salads, and delicious sorbets and ice creams .
When the sunny spell began this year my mind was filled with memories of a certain type of coconut ice lolly that I used to buy many years ago in a small independent store in Ealing where I was working at the time. The shop had stopped selling the lollies and I hadn't seen them again in over 12 years!
As the days progressed I thought more and more about this much missed treat. Oh I know Ben and Jerrys do coconut ice-cream and I'm sure its delicious but my heart and taste buds were set on a coconut ice-lolly with real fruit and nothing else would do. I'll be honest I was getting rather obsessed by the idea.
About five days after the warm weather spell had started I had to go into central London to St James's Church in Piccadilly to check out the meeting room I’ve booked for my Create Your Dream Life Vision Board Workshop on June 18th.
As London looks so gorgeous in the sun and I love the area around Piccadilly and Oxford Street I thought I would walk up to Selfridges do some window shopping. I popped in and out of shops enjoying all the bright peacock hues that summer brings and loving the feel of the sun on my face. After an hour or so I decided I needed to start making a move towards home as I had a telephone coaching session booked for 5pm so i started towards Marble Arch Tube .
As I walked past the corner of Debenhams and was waiting to cross the road I happened to turn to my right and see a woman standing by a stall selling cans of pop and ice lollies. All of a sudde
I did a double take my head almost swivelling 360 degrees;on a small sign written in scrawled green handwriting were the words Coconut Ice-lolly £1.40 .
I immediately approached the vendor, probably grinning insanely and asked her if she had any left. She opened the freezer and rummaged through the contents a slight frown forming on her tanned face. Things didn't look good when suddenly she smiled gave a slight nod and triumphantly pulled out what turned out to be the last coconut lolly she had. I handed her my money and held the prized item in my hand for a millisecond before ripping the packaging off.
I couldn’t hang about as I didn’t want my prize to melt. As I walked down to Marble Arch ice lolly in hand and mouth I felt wonderful. It was delicious, everything I remembered and more.
Ok I didn't manifest a house but to me it was absolute proof that what you think about you can indeed bring about!

Here are some tips for effective manifestation

1) Get really clear about what you want -Be precise If you want a new car don't just focus on "a car" get detailed! Pick a make model and colour -think about the trim the seating the engine size
2) Create a compelling visualisation -Whether you use a vision board or create a vision in your mind make it one that really attracts you and picture yourself enjoying whatever it is you want to manifest .
3) Try to get some experience of the thing. If you have a car or house in mind arrange a test drive,or go to a viewing of the type of house you want just so you connect even more with the experience of having it . It will really add power to your visualisation.
4) Enjoy the visualisation and act as if you have it already -as if there was never any doubt that it would come to you for you have attracted it easily and effortlessly into your life.
