Manifesting your Desires
Clients keep telling me about Abraham Hicks and the earth-shattering wisdom they gain from their teachings. You shared, and I listened! In the last few months, I’ve been reading and listening to these teachings on an array of topics. I’m hooked and think you will be too!
Full disclosure: Abraham-Hicks is not human. Jerry and Esther Hicks are a husband-wife team who discovered in the 1980s that they could communicate with the infinite intelligence of the universe. Esther learned that she was a medium, and began to channel a team of non-physical beings that call themselves “Abraham”; named such because they come together as teachers of mankind.
The wisdom they share is simple and yet life-altering. I attempt to highlight their most important principles.
1. Our goal in life is to Live in Joy.
"It’s not just that your purpose is Joy, it is that you ARE Joy. You are love and joy and freedom and clarity expressing.”
“Focus every moment of every day on choosing Joy, and you will thrive.”
2. Emotions are our internal-navigation system.
"The better you feel, the more in alignment you are. The worse you feel the more out of alignment you are."
“Focus on how you want to feel and let the Universe fill in the details.”
3. Thoughts are magnetic; what you think will manifest. This is the Law of Attraction.
“The most valuable skill or talent that you could ever develop is that of directing your thoughts toward what you want.”
"When you believe something is hard, the Universe demonstrates the difficulty. When you believe something is easy, the Universe demonstrates the ease."
“Everything That Is, is the result of vibration. And if you don't like the result, change the vibration, that's all!
How do I change a vibration?
Think differently.
Well, how do I think differently? That's the way I've always thought.
Well, start paying attention to how the thoughts feel instead of the content of the thought."
I’ve read 3 of their 9 books, and they similarly share how to achieve your desires, manifest your dreams, and navigate through a life in which people think differently than you do.
The Law of Attraction: This book is in Question and Answer style; Jerry Hicks interviews Abraham through Esther (the audiobook is a recording of the interview). They review the Law of Attraction, Law of Deliberate Creation, and Law of Allowing. You will attract what you put your thoughts toward. Clear, focused thoughts are a magnet! In order to actually manifest what you are wanting, match your vibration to a situation in which you already have it. This will put your actions in alignment with your desires. Then allow it to happen! Don’t fight it. Allow other people to have their path as well.
Ask and it is Given: This book is completely channeled from Abraham. Part One explains the nuances of the Law of Attraction, using emotions as a navigational system, and more. Part Two is a set of exercises to raise your vibration so that you can more easily manifest your desires.
The Vortex: This book explains that there is no lack and no competition for resources. There is enough abundance for everyone and every desire in this ever-expanding universe. If you desire money, a quality partner, the perfect job, etc, it exists as part of the infinite potential. If you step into the vortex, all that you desire will be magnetically attracted to you. Your goal is to align your vibration to the vibration of what you desire.
Abraham Hicks speaks at many events, answering audience questions about how to apply these principles to life situations. Many of these gems of wisdom are available on YouTube. Some of my favorite are related to interpersonal relationships: parenting and coparenting, marriage and divorce, family dynamics, and more.
Several compelling applications of Abraham's teachings:

You Can Make it Simple or Complicated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBtYqWhn68w
On Addiction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TygbkLJYO1M
The invitation is to listen to your inner-guidance system and trust others to align with their inner-guidance system. This will lead you to a life of Joy and manifestation.
