When You Ask, You will Receive, so Stop Worrying if Your Request Was Heard

Loosen up and relax

Take a deep breath. Sink into your body. Close your eyes for a moment and just breathe.

There is nothing to worry about. Everything is just as it should be.

When we relax and loosen our grip on life, we open ourselves up to the flow of the universe. If we are spending our time in worry, anxiety, and fear, all flow is constricted or closed off.

This is the part of the Law of Attraction that might be the most difficult. Letting go of our grip on the outcome. Having faith in the universe that your dreams will be delivered when you let things unfold in the way they are meant to .

Imagine you order something from Amazon. You’d place your order and go about your day knowing your package will be delivered in a day or two. The universe works the same way- ask and you shall receive.

However, silly humans we are, we don’t believe that we will receive our order. We fear we’ve asked for too much, don’t deserve to have what we want, worry about what other people will think, we focus on not having it, perhaps that it will be taken away, or that it’s a ridiculous idea after all.

Then we start to fret that it hasn’t arrived yet. The worry sinks in deeper that we won’t have our request fulfilled. We start to dig up the seed that was just planted to check if the roots have started to grow.

Doing this shows the universe that you’re not fully in faith. You can not be open to receiving and worry you won’t get it at the same time. Quite often the focus is on something so specific, all other possibilities of it coming to you shut down.

If you focus too much on the specifics (and yes you need to be specific with your request, but not with your outcome), then you’re limiting the realm of potential possibilities. You are telling the universe that you think you know better, and that your way of receiving is the only way.

For example, if you wanted to manifest $5000 but you only thought it could come from getting a bonus in your next check for working a bunch of overtime, then you close the door on it possibly coming to you as a gift, a refund, backpay, finding it in…
