Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, everyone get ready, because today we are
diving deep into the world ofmanifestation.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Ooh, exciting.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
It is, but there's a twist.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Okay, I like a good twist.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
So we're looking at this blog post from April 24th
this year.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Oh, so recent.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Totally and get this.
The title is 50 Journal Promptsfor those Harnessing the Power
of Manifestation.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Okay, I'm intrigued.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
But here's the thing it's from a company called
Lestallion, and guess what theysell?
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Let me guess journals .
Speaker 1 (00:28):
You got it.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Well, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Right, like it makes you wonder, are these prompts?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
actually legit or are they just trying to sell us
something?
It's a good question because,let's be real, the market is
saturated with manifestationjournals.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Totally so.
The post, they've got to divideit into five sections.
Manifestation basics.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I mean that makes sense.
It's got to start somewhere,right?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Exactly.
Then there's visualizationtechniques, manifestation and
your emotions, your action andmanifestation and, last but not
least, reflections onmanifestation Wow.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
They really cover it all, don't they?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
They do.
They're very thorough.
I'll give them that.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
So with a structure like that.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
It seems like they're going for more than just vague
ideas about wishing for thingsRight, Like maybe there's some
actual substance here, maybe so.
So let's jump right intomanifestation basics.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Okay, let's do it.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
One prompt that immediately stood out to me was
right about a time yousuccessfully manifested
something small.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Oh, interesting.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Like they're starting you off by thinking about your
past successes.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Hmm, that's actually pretty clever, right.
Yeah, it's like they're tappinginto that whole confirmation
bias thing.
What do you mean?
Well, when you remember a timewhen you feel like you
manifested something, even if itwas just a coincidence, it kind
of reinforces the idea thatmanifestation works.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Ah, so it's like a little confidence booster to get
you hooked.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Exactly, and that little boost might be all
someone needs to actually stickwith the journaling.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Okay, this next one is interesting.
What steps did you take to makethat manifestation successful?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
So they're not letting you just take credit for
every lucky break.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Exactly.
They're making you think aboutthe actions you took.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I like that.
It adds a bit of criticalthinking to the mix.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Which is always a good thing.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Absolutely.
It's not just about attributingeverything to the universe, but
also recognizing your own rolein the process.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Yeah, it's like they're trying to find that
balance between the mystical andthe practical.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Definitely, and that's a smart move if they want
to appeal to a wider audience.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Right, you've got people who love the woo-woo
stuff and then those who need tosee some concrete steps.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Exactly, it's about meeting people where they're at.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Okay, let's move on to visualization techniques.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
All right, let's visualize some results.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
This section is full of interesting prompts.
One that stood out to me waswhat colors do you see around
you in your visualization ofsuccess?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Oh wow, that's specific.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Right, I've never seen a visualization prompt that
specific.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
It's like they really want you to paint a vivid
picture in your mind.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
And you know what they might be onto something.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
How so.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Well, I've heard that incorporating sensory details
like colors can actually enhancevisualization practices.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Oh, really Like.
Is there any science behindthat?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yeah, I've read some studies about athletes using
visualization, and the ones whoincluded really vivid sensory
details tended to perform better.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Huh, that's fascinating.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Right, but I'm not sure if it's a causation thing
or just a correlation.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, that's always the tricky part with these kinds
of things.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
But it makes sense though, right.
The more vividly you canimagine something, the more real
it feels.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Absolutely, and that's what we're going for with
visualization making it feelreal okay, here's another one
from this section that I foundreally interesting.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
How does visualization strengthen your
belief in your goals?
Oh, that's a good one I likehow it makes you think about the
why behind the technique right.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
It's not just about blindly following instructions,
but understanding how it works.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Exactly.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Because when you get how visualization can strengthen
your beliefs, it helps youconnect with your goals on a
deeper level.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
And that emotional connection is key for motivation
.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Absolutely.
It's like fuel for the fire.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
So even if you're a bit skeptical about the whole
universe manifesting yourdesires, this section still
offers some valuable tools.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
For sure, visualization is a powerful
technique, regardless of yourbeliefs about manifestation.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Okay, before we move on to the next section, can we
address the elephant in the room?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Oh, you mean the whole buyer journal thing.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Exactly.
They're really laying it onthick, aren't they?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Oh yeah, it's like every other sentence is about
their signature.
Pu leather, 120 GSM A5 journals.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
And don't forget about the rainbow of stylish
colors.
They come in.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Right, like they're trying to tempt us with a little
retail therapy.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Totally, but it does make you wonder do you really
need a fancy journal formanifestation to work?
Speaker 2 (04:39):
That's the million dollar question, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Right.
Is there something magicalabout a leather bound notebook?
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Well, it all comes down to the placebo effect.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Okay, explain it to me like I'm five.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Basically, if you believe that a beautiful,
expensive journal will make yourmanifestation practice more
effective, it just might.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Really.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Yeah, our beliefs have a powerful impact on our
experiences.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
So you're saying it's all about tricking your brain
into thinking it's fancier thanit is?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It's more than just a trick.
There's real value in creatinga ritual around your goals and
intentions.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Okay, I can see that.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
If having a dedicated , aesthetically pleasing journal
helps you commit to thepractice, then it it served its
purpose.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
That makes sense.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
But we shouldn't discount the placebo effect
either.
The power of belief is a realthing.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
True, it plays a role in so many areas of life.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Exactly, and personal growth and goal achievement are
no exception.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's like they say whether you think you can or you
think you can't, you're right.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Exactly your beliefs shape your reality.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
So it's not really about the journal itself, it's
more about, like, the act ofjournaling.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
You got it.
It's about what you do with it,the thoughts you explore, the
intentions you set.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
And taking action right.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Exactly Because the vision board is one thing, but
actually taking steps towardsyour goals.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
That's the real challenge, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
It is, and this section seems to recognize that
it's called your Action andManifestation.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Okay.
So they're not just aboutpositive thinking.
They want you to actually dosomething.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Exactly, it's about aligning your actions with your
intentions.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I like it.
So what kind of prompts are wetalking about here?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Well, one that stood out to me was what small goal
can you achieve this week thatbrings you closer to your larger
dream?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Oh, I like that.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah, it's all about breaking it down into smaller
steps.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Right, because that whole larger dream thing can be
totally overwhelming.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Exactly yeah, it's much less intimidating to focus
on something you can actuallyachieve this week.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Totally.
It makes those big dreams feela little less impossible.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Precisely, and every little win helps build momentum.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Momentum is so important.
Okay, what else did they have?
Speaker 2 (06:42):
This next one really got me thinking.
How do you balance patience andaction in the process of
manifestation?
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Ooh, that is a good one, because it's not like you
just manifest somethingovernight, right.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Right.
It's not about passivelywaiting for the universe to
deliver.
It's about actively creatingthe life you want.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
But also trusting the timing.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yes, it's about finding that balance between
taking action and being patient.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Which is easier said than done.
Oh, absolutely, it's a constantdance, yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
And everyone's going to find their own rhythm.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Totally Okay.
Before we move on to the finalsection, I have to ask.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
What's that.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Who is this?
Clara Penrose.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Oh, you noticed that too.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah, we've heard all about these journal prompts.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
But we know nothing about the person behind them.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Right, no bio, no credentials, no nothing.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
It is a little strange, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
I even tried Googling her Nothing.
No manifestation guru by thatname.
Huh, maybe it's a pen name, orlike a team of writers at
Lestallion.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Could be A ghostwriting conspiracy.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Right, but seriously it does make you wonder about
the authority behind theseprompts.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Especially since they're trying to sell us
something.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Exactly.
But you know, I will say theydid create a pretty engaging
blog post.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They did, even if we don't know who to thank for it.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Right, Okay, let's move on to the final section of
prompts.
Reflections on manifestation.
What do you make of this one?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I like it.
It encourages some deeperthinking about the whole
manifestation process.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah, like they're not just telling you what to do.
They want you to really reflecton your experiences.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Exactly it's about gaining insights from your
journey.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Okay, so spill the tea.
What were some of your favoriteprompts from this section?
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Well, this one really stood out to me.
What are the most importantlessons you've learned from
trying to manifest your dreams?
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Oh, that's a good one .
It's like they're saying it'snot just about the destination,
it's about what you learn alongthe way.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Exactly.
Sometimes a real magic happensin the journey.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I love that.
Okay, what else?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Here's another one what advice would you give to
someone new to manifestation?
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Oh, that's clever.
It's like they're making youthe expert.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Right, even if you're still figuring things out
yourself.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Plus, it's always nice to feel like you have some
wisdom to share.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Absolutely, it's a win-win.
Okay, before we wrap up thisdeep dive, any final thoughts on
these journal prompts.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Yeah.
Do you think they actually work?
Will they help people manifesttheir dreams?
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Honestly, it's impossible to say for sure.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
But I do think there's value in what they're
promoting.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Like what.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Well, they emphasize the importance of aligning
action with intention,cultivating self-awareness.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
And being patient.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Yes, and approaching the whole process with a healthy
dose of critical thinking.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
So it's not about sitting back and waiting for the
universe to work its magic.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Exactly.
It's about activelyparticipating in creating the
life you want.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
It's more about taking control of your own
destiny right.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Exactly.
And that brings us back to afinal thought this blog post
kind of sparked for me.
They emphasize throughout thatmanifestation isn't just about
dreaming, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
It's about actually making it happen.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Yes, it's about taking action, bridging that gap
between thought and reality.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Which, let's be real, is way easier said than done.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Oh, tell me about it.
It's easy to get caught up inthe dreaming phase, but actually
taking those steps, yeah, ittakes effort, serious effort,
and it makes you wonder, likehow much of our reality is
actually within our control.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Oh, now that's a question.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Right, like how much is external forces versus our
own actions?
Speaker 1 (10:07):
It's giving free will versus destiny.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Exactly, and that's something I think we could all
ponder a bit.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Definitely gives us all something to think about.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
It does, and you know what I think.
This deep dive has been reallyinsightful.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I agree, even though it started with a blog post
about journals.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Right.
Who knew we could have such adeep conversation about
manifestation from that?
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Well, that's the beauty of the deep dive.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
It is.
We find those hidden gemswherever they may be.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
That's what we do and , on that note, we are out of
time, but thank you so much forjoining us on this journey into
the world of manifestation.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Until next time, keep on manifesting everyone.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
And don't forget to take action.
All right, everyone get ready, because today we are
diving deep into the world ofmanifestation.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Ooh, exciting.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
It is, but there's a twist.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Okay, I like a good twist.
Speaker 1 (00:10):

Speaker 1 (05:00):
So you're saying it's all about tricking your brain
into thinking it's fancier thanit is?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It's more than just a trick.
There's real value in creatinga ritual around your goals and
intentions.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Okay, I can see that.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
If having a dedicated , aesthetically pleasing journal
helps you commit to thepractice, then it it served its
purpose.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
That makes sense.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
But we shouldn't discount the placebo effect
either.
The power of belief is a realthing.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
True, it plays a role in so many areas of life.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Exactly, and personal growth and goal achievement are
no exception.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's like they say whether you think you can or you
think you can't, you're right.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Exactly your beliefs shape your reality.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
So it's not really about the journal itself, it's
more about, like, the act ofjournaling.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
You got it.
It's about what you do with it,the thoughts you explore, the
intentions you set.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
And taking action right.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Exactly Because the vision board is one thing, but
actually taking steps towardsyour goals.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
That's the real challenge, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
It is, and this section seems to recognize that
it's called your Action andManifestation.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Okay.
So they're not just aboutpositive thinking.
They want you to actually dosomething.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Exactly, it's about aligning your actions with your
intentions.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I like it.
So what kind of prompts are wetalking about here?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Well, one that stood out to me was what small goal
can you achieve this week thatbrings you closer to your larger
dream?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Oh, I like that.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah, it's all about breaking it down into smaller
steps.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Right, because that whole larger dream thing can be
totally overwhelming.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Exactly yeah, it's much less intimidating to focus
on something you can actuallyachieve this week.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Totally.
It makes those big dreams feela little less impossible.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Precisely, and every little win helps build momentum.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Momentum is so important.
Okay, what else did they have?
Speaker 2 (06:42):
This next one really got me thinking.
How do you balance patience andaction in the process of
manifestation?
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Ooh, that is a good one, because it's not like you
just manifest somethingovernight, right.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Right.
It's not about passivelywaiting for the universe to
deliver.
It's about actively creatingthe life you want.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
But also trusting the timing.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yes, it's about finding that balance between
taking action and being patient.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Which is easier said than done.
Oh, absolutely, it's a constantdance, yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
And everyone's going to find their own rhythm.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Totally Okay.
Before we move on to the finalsection, I have to ask.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
What's that.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Who is this?
Clara Penrose.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Oh, you noticed that too.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah, we've heard all about these journal prompts.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
But we know nothing about the person behind them.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Right, no bio, no credentials, no nothing.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
It is a little strange, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
I even tried Googling her Nothing.
No manifestation guru by thatname.
Huh, maybe it's a pen name, orlike a team of writers at
Lestallion.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Could be A ghostwriting conspiracy.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Right, but seriously it does make you wonder about
the authority behind theseprompts.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Especially since they're trying to sell us
something.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Exactly.
But you know, I will say theydid create a pretty engaging
blog post.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They did, even if we don't know who to thank for it.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Right, Okay, let's move on to the final section of
prompts.
Reflections on manifestation.
What do you make of this one?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I like it.
It encourages some deeperthinking about the whole
manifestation process.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah, like they're not just telling you what to do.
They want you to really reflecton your experiences.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Exactly it's about gaining insights from your
journey.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Okay, so spill the tea.
What were some of your favoriteprompts from this section?
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Well, this one really stood out to me.
What are the most importantlessons you've learned from
trying to manifest your dreams?
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Oh, that's a good one .
It's like they're saying it'snot just about the destination,
it's about what you learn alongthe way.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Exactly.
Sometimes a real magic happensin the journey.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I love that.
Okay, what else?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Here's another one what advice would you give to
someone new to manifestation?
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Oh, that's clever.
It's like they're making youthe expert.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Right, even if you're still figuring things out
yourself.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Plus, it's always nice to feel like you have some
wisdom to share.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Absolutely, it's a win-win.
Okay, before we wrap up thisdeep dive, any final thoughts on
these journal prompts.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Yeah.
Do you think they actually work?
Will they help people manifesttheir dreams?
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Honestly, it's impossible to say for sure.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
But I do think there's value in what they're
promoting.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Like what.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Well, they emphasize the importance of aligning
action with intention,cultivating self-awareness.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
And being patient.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Yes, and approaching the whole process with a healthy
dose of critical thinking.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
So it's not about sitting back and waiting for the
universe to work its magic.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Exactly.
It's about activelyparticipating in creating the
life you want.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
It's more about taking control of your own
destiny right.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Exactly.
And that brings us back to afinal thought this blog post
kind of sparked for me.
They emphasize throughout thatmanifestation isn't just about
dreaming, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
It's about actually making it happen.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Yes, it's about taking action, bridging that gap
between thought and reality.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Which, let's be real, is way easier said than done.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Oh, tell me about it.
It's easy to get caught up inthe dreaming phase, but actually
taking those steps, yeah, ittakes effort, serious effort,
and it makes you wonder, likehow much of our reality is
actually within our control.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Oh, now that's a question.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Right, like how much is external forces versus our
own actions?
Speaker 1 (10:07):
It's giving free will versus destiny.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Exactly, and that's something I think we could all
ponder a bit.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Definitely gives us all something to think about.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
It does, and you know what I think.
This deep dive has been reallyinsightful.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I agree, even though it started with a blog post
about journals.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Right.
Who knew we could have such adeep conversation about
manifestation from that?
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Well, that's the beauty of the deep dive.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
It is.
We find those hidden gemswherever they may be.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
That's what we do and , on that note, we are out of
time, but thank you so much forjoining us on this journey into
the world of manifestation.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Until next time, keep on manifesting everyone.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
And don't forget to take action.
