The similarities between physical and mental trauma
Key Takeaways:
Head injuries cause brain trauma. An untreated concussion is an untreated concussion and a concussion relates to so many aspects of life.
There are a lot of physical manifestations of brain trauma, but the injury can go beyond what the eyes can see. Mental abuse and physical abuse will look exactly the same on brain scans.
If you have a brain injury, there’s going to be a place in your vision where you don’t want to look. Everywhere you look is a different part of the brain, so when you look in that uncomfortable direction, your brain becomes active in that place where it was not before.
“What we do is we utilize cognitive movement, to actually reprogram your subconscious. So you’re absent your shame, you’re absent the guilt, the grief, the resentment, the blame, the fear. We go through and process all of those fears of your lifetime, all the griefs of your lifetime.” – Bill McKenna

Think about the musician who writes a Grammy-winning song in minutes. Or the scientist who sits down to sketch an idea and ends up making a massive breakthrough. Or taking a different route on a whim and meeting up with someone you’ve been wanting to connect with. We chalk experiences like this up to coincidence or good luck, but they’re the natural result of alignment.
Alignment = Flow = Good Luck, Coincidences & Miracles
When we’re aligned we enter a flow state that allows us to recognize the clues that are always being offered to us. In our neutrality and non-resistance, we’re more receptive to the good ideas floating out there in the quantum field.
Oprah Winfrey has described good luck as “preparedness meeting with opportunity.” And being in a state of alignment is the ultimate preparation. It’s what allows us to see the opportunities that are always unfolding before us.
Here are 5 energy mastery practices to intentionally put yourself in a state of alignment so you can recognize the universal clues all around you.
To attract good Luck, coincidences & miracles, give up complaining.
Complaining about where we are blinds us to all the clues, open doors, and potential connections that are all around us. They are always there, but in our funk – which is to say, in our mindset of lack and limitation – we miss them.
If you think about, talk about, and forecast about everything that could go wrong, you’re preparing yourself for a miserable experience. So instead, take that same focus and use it to prepare yourself to receive inspiration about your desires.
To attract good Luck, coincidences & miracles, adopt the mindset that things are always working out for you.
When things don’t unfold according to your desires, take the case that it’s not because you have done something wrong. It is only a matter of alignment, and alignment is a moment-by-moment practice that you can always attain. Closed doors and delays are not mistakes or wrong turns, but feedback from the universe that we need to further clarify our own energy field.
To attract good Luck, coincidences & miracles, hold a soft intention about what you desire to create.
Intense desire introduces unwanted stress. If you’ve ever wanted something and wanted it now, you know it comes with some degree of angst and resistance. But, a soft, general intention about the way you want to feel summons powerful creative energy without the discomfort.
For example, “I desire clarity, fun, adventure, connection. I desire to feel that I am loved and taken care of.” These are all excellent soft intentions to hold, because you are letting the universe know what you want, but not trying to control the who, when, where or how.
To attract good Luck, coincidences & miracles, ponder your general desire until you can feel the correlating energy begin to stir within you.
The universe responds to your energy. And the way you guide the energy that comes to you is by mastering the energy that you are outputting.
So if it’s a feeling of fun or ease you desire to create, recall experiences from your past that were fun or easy. And continue to do this until you feel a shift in your frequency.
If you desire to create something that you’ve never before experienced, then use your power of focus to imagine just what that experience would feel like. Do anything within your power to generate a sensation of movement within your energy field.
To attract good luck, coincidences & miracles, remember that there are no miracles, or coincidences.
What we call coincidence is simply a coming together of harmonic frequencies. Harmonize yourself with the frequencies you desire to populate in your life, then adjust your focus to observe everything that aligns with that. You will soon discover that things you formerly called coincidences are happening all around you. And in your state of alignment, you will be in a position to synch up with them.

When we are aligned, we enter a flow state in which we are able to perceive, recognize, and receive clues that are always being offered to us. The flip side of this is also true, when things in our outer world are not going smoothly, it’s because of misalignment.
We can’t force our way into a flow state, we have to be receptive and allow the ideas and opportunities to come by being in that state of vibration. The key is to keep practicing and providing compassion to yourself when you notice you’re out of flow.
In every single moment, we are pre-paving ourselves for the next moment that will unfold in our experience. Focus on the things that could go right, the things you want to happen, and use that intention and focus to prepare yourself to receive your desires. That is how you pre-pave yourself for what you want.
“When we are aligned, we enter a flow state in which we are able to perceive, recognize, receive the clues that are always being offered to us. But the flip side of this is also true when things in our outer world are not unfolding smoothly, we can be certain that there’s a misalignment somewhere within our own energy field in relation to that subject.” – Christy Whitman
What we focus on, we nourish with our energy and invite to become more. Once we understand this foundational principle of manifestation, we are ready for more advanced manifestation techniques. One such advanced technique is learning to calibrate our focus in specific ways, depending on the situation we find ourselves.
Focusing Specifically vs. Focusing Generally
I’m certain you understand by now that everything in this vibrational universe is made up of energy, and this includes you. What you consistently focus your energy on, you draw into your life experience – regardless of whether it’s something you want, or not.
There’s a big misconception that to manifest our desires, we need to visualize in very specific terms exactly what we want to create. This leads us to create vision boards depicting a very specific set of circumstances: The shiny new red Porche, the adoring husband or wife, the lavish vacation… These are all examples of circumstances we conjure when we focus with a lot of specificity on what we desire.
But here is an advanced manifestation technique that will serve you to commit to memory:
The moment your specific focus places you in the zone of pipe-dreaming or disbelief, you’re working against the very manifestation you want to create. In those moments, you’d be better served to pull back from your specific focus and become more general.
To help you apply this advanced manifestation technique, here a couple of examples of general focus vs. specific focus:
A specific focus regarding money is visualizing your bank account with a $1,000,000 balance.
A general focus regarding money is noticing all the ways you are currently sustained and supported. You have ready access to an unlimited abundance of fresh air, beauty, and love, for example.
A specific focus regarding health and fitness is conjuring an image of yourself in a bikini or comfortably wearing a smaller size clothing.
A general focus regarding health and fitness is appreciating your body for all of the ways it serves and supports you.
Specific focus summons a faster stream of creative energy, while a general focus slows the movement of this stream way down. So, whether you choose a specific or general focus all comes down to your capacity to stay in alignment.
Here are 3 guidelines to help you decide which application of this advanced manifestation technique will hasten the manifestation of your desires:
Guideline #1: Pay attention to your internal signals of alignment and misalignment.
When applying this advanced meditation technique, your personal capacity to receive and align with the energy of your desire is the most important factor. When you summon more energy than you are able to receive, you feel overwhelmed, and the results you desire don’t unfold smoothly.
The rule of thumb is this: if thinking in specific terms thrills you or fills you with hope, then, by all means, keep it up. But the moment you feel yourself tipping into doubt or frustration, pull back your specific focus and become more general. Back away from the cliff, so to speak, and turn your attention to something unrelated.
Guideline #2: Respect the moment-by-moment balance between your desire and your belief.
When you have the strong desire but a weak belief, a general focus is your best manifestational ally. This is because if you continue to focus specifically when your belief is faltering, you will only amplify your disbelief.
But if on the other hand, you have a strong desire and an equally strong belief, you can afford to focus more specifically.
You can actually reshape your beliefs by consciously applying this advanced manifestation technique. As you gift yourself with the feeling of relief that comes with general focus, you become instantly more allowing.
Guideline #3: When in doubt, turn your focus towards the essence of your desire.
Beneath every specific manifestation that we desire, we are hoping to feel a certain way. And while it may take some practice to know when to focus generally vs. specifically, it always feels good to focus on the feeling essence of your desire.
Just ask yourself, “How do I believe I will feel once I’ve accomplished ______?” Then fill yourself up with that feeling, right now.
When our energy is in alignment with our desire, that desire simply must manifest. It’s just the way the laws of the universe work. And when our energy is misaligned, that’s when we manifest obstacles, roadblocks, delays… The wise creator knows this, and releases specific focus when it no longer serves them.
Remember the universe does not respond to the images we hold. The universe – and all the energy in it – responds to our vibration. Your feelings hold the key.

Whether you focus on something general or specific, what’s important is that what you’re focusing on is in the direction that you want.
What you focus on, you nourish with your energy and you allow yourself to become more. Whether you like that thing or not, it will expand as long as you’re focusing on it.
Specific focus on your desire is only helpful if you feel great while you’re focusing on it. General focus on your desire is only helpful if you feel great while you’re focusing on it. You have to have a good feeling while thinking of your desires.
“Both specific and general work. But it’s what you’re focusing on that works. It’s the power of focus, and whether you’re doing it generally or specific, make sure it’s in the direction you want.” – Christy Whitman
