The Power of Gratitude

How Practicing Thankfulness Transforms Your Life Introduction: The Science of Gratitude In a world filled with distractions, stress, and endless responsibilities, it’s easy to focus on what’s missing rather than appreciating what we already have. However, research has shown that practicing gratitude can significantly impact our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. Cultivating a…

You are not meant to just get by. You are meant to live fully.

Many of us spend our lives stuck in survival mode—constantly reacting, anxiety, defensiveness, triggered, blaming ourselves, overthinking & doing whatever it takes just to get through the day. It could feel like you’re holding everything together, but deep down you know this isn’t sustainable. Imagine waking up feeling peaceful instead of stressed. Imagine having the time and energy to enjoy life, instead of just surviving it. That reality is possible, but it starts with a choice: to step out of survival mode & into the life you were meant to live.

Survival mode is exhausting. You feel:

• Overwhelming anxiety that makes you question every decision

• Constant burnout from never giving yourself a real break

• A scarcity mindset, always fearing there’s not enough time, money, or love

• Numbing emotions, because feeling them seems too hard

But you don’t have to live this way. You deserve to thrive, not just survive.

Signs You’re in Survival Mode:

• You feel like life is happening to you, not for you.

• You focus only on what’s urgent, ignoring what’s important.

• You’ve stopped dreaming or setting long-term goals.

• Every day feels like a race you’re barely finishing.

How to Break Free from Survival Mode:

1. Pause and Reflect

Give yourself permission to stop and ask: What am I running from or avoiding? Awareness is the first step to change

2. Prioritize Your Energy

• Sleep more

• Say “no” to things that drain you

• Focus on the few things that really matter

3. Heal the Root Cause

Often, survival mode is tied to past trauma or unhealed pain. Journaling, therapy, or even talking to a trusted friend can help release those emotions.

4. Shift Your Mindset

Practice abundance thinking. Replace “I can’t” with “How can I?” Gratitude journaling can also help rewire your brain to focus on the good.

5. Invest in Your Future

Start setting small goals, even if they feel impossible. Give yourself permission to dream again & build systems that support you instead of overwhelm you

What do you need to know? Pick a bird:

Pile 1

Fool reversed, 8 of cups reversed, high priestess reversed

Stop doubting your own intuition! You were meant to walk away from that thing. That thing was never supposed to work out in the first place. It probably hurt, yeah, but you probably learned a lesson and got some creative inspiration, am I right? Everything is working out perfectly, especially those things that don’t work out. Trust what that voice/gut feeling says, and don’t abandon yourself by doubting your intuition!! You know a lot more than you think. And no— it’s not foolish to trust your heart over your head.

Pile 2

knight of swords (R), 10 of wands (R), 3 of pentacles (R)

Unfocused energy is present here-a duty to “do it all” when no one even asked and then getting upset the recognition/praise you desire doesn’t come. This is leading to resentment and contention with those you work with. You have to trust that other people are capable of taking care of things and themselves. Messiah complex. Stop trying to do everything— focus attention and energy on what is important to YOU. Put that energy toward something YOU desire, toward yourself. Let others do what they need to do— or not do. It’s not your problem. People need to learn from their own mistakes— let them.

Pile 3

world (R), 9 cups (R), 7 wands (R)

You keep getting stuck in the same cycle because of a self-fulfilling prophecy and paranoia. Putting the cart before the horse. I’m getting comparison vibes too— stop doing that. Appreciate the simple things and blessings you do have in your life, even if they aren’t all that you desire. The Universe is not going to gift you with more if you can’t nurture and appreciate what you already have, regardless of how small and insignificant it may seem to you— it’s probably not to someone who does not have it. It’s like letting blessings slip through your fingers because you’re too concerned about losing them or someone taking them from you— give yourself the chance to actually imagine having those things before you imagine losing them! Gratitude lists are amazing and supposedly rewire the brain to be happy in 30 days.

Manifestation 101: What It Is and How to Get Started

Hey, besties! It’s your manifestation fairy godmother, Mindy, here to break down everything you need to know about manifestation. Let’s turn those Pinterest boards into reality because spoiler alert: your dream life is waiting for you. 🌸

So, what is manifestation, exactly? Manifestation is the art of turning your desires into reality using your thoughts, energy, and aligned actions. It’s not just about wishing on a star (though that’s super cute); it’s about rewiring your mind to believe you’re worthy of everything you want. Think of it as creating your own magical destiny, one dreamy thought at a time.

The Science Behind Manifestation Okay, stay with me, babes, because this part’s kinda nerdy but sooo important. Manifestation isn’t just woo-woo fluff—it’s backed by science. Your brain has this superpower called the Reticular Activating System (RAS), which filters out unnecessary info and focuses on what you care about. When you tell your brain, “I’m rich and successful,” your RAS starts noticing opportunities, connections, and ideas to make that happen. Manifestation = mindset meets action.

How to Start Manifesting Here’s your starter pack for dreamy manifestations:

Get Clear on What You Want: Be specific, babe. Instead of “I want to be successful,” try “I want to own a thriving business that makes $10K a month by next year.”

Feel the Feelings: Imagine you’ve already achieved your goal. What does it feel like to live that life? Excited? Peaceful? Confident? Soak it all in.

Take Aligned Action: Manifestation isn’t just about daydreaming; it’s about putting in the work. If you’re manifesting your dream job, start applying, networking, or building your skills.

Practice Gratitude: Be grateful for what you have and what’s on its way to you. Gratitude is the ultimate high-vibe energy.

A Quick Beginner Exercise Tonight, grab your cutest journal and write a letter to the universe. Start with, “Thank you for…” and describe your dream life as if it’s already happening. Be detailed, playful, and extra. (Because we love a little extra, don’t we?)

[fairyminnie444]

helloo, I hope you’re doing okay!! Thank you for being here and helping others so much with your blog.

I wanted to ask your tip for something if you’re okay with it! I’m kinda of a insecure person, like, I struggle a lot with self criticism and feeling comfortable in my skin. I want to reach a good level of confidence, and I have been trying to manifest it, but it’s a hard path for me. What type of affirmations do you think would be the best, or a way to act or simply how could I manifest it?

if this feels like TMI or trauma dumping, please feel free to delete this ask!

Of course 🩷 im glad to help.

Confidence and self-acceptance are powerful states to embody, and manifesting them starts with simple, consistent shifts in how you perceive yourself.

When you catch yourself being self-critical, don’t suppress it. Instead, reframe it:

• Recognize the thought: “Oh, this is just an old belief passing through.”

• Replace it: “This thought has no power over me. I choose self-love now.”

• Redirect your focus to something you admire about yourself, even something small.

Act Like You Already Have It

Manifesting confidence is about being confident now, even if it feels like you’re “pretending” at first:

• Walk with good posture and take up space.

• Speak with clarity and maintain eye contact.

• Celebrate small wins to reinforce the belief that you’re capable.

• Take bold actions (even small ones) that push you slightly out of your comfort zone. Acting confident rewires your brain to feel confident

Build Evidence Through Gratitude

Each day, write down:

• Three things you like about yourself.

• Three moments you handled well, even if small.

This helps shift your focus from what you lack to what you already are.

Remind yourself that confidence isn’t something you acquire; it’s something you uncover. It’s already within you, and the layers of insecurity are just temporary distractions.

If you stay consistent, you’ll notice shifts in how you feel and how others respond to you. Confidence becomes second nature when you align with it from the inside out. You’ve got this! 🩷🩷

Are You Such A Person?

Your most important and congruent goals and dreams can be met and achieved by simply breaking them down into little bits that is easier to handle and work through, writing them down is the first and very important step in this process and this helps you see them clearer and more objectively from a 360 degree viewpoint. Another important factor is believing in them, it's not only important but also crucial because if you don't believe in your dreams and goals, how can you achieve them, make them come through or even be that person you were destined to be? Absolutely not possible! Someone else can't believe in you for you or achieve your goals and dreams for you, it's all up to you and achieve them all by going full speed ahead as if they were your normal every day life routine, living your life out of gratitude and joy for the gift of life and the opportunity to achieve your goals and dreams, because you believe that you are An Archiver, so ask yourself this question today - Are you such a person, are you truly an Archiver?

It's fundamental to spend as much time as possible improving yourself, rewiring your brain to see you as you see yourself - the new and improved you, the accomplished person and personality you aim and dream to become, live it every single day and in all circumstances, situations, events and happenings of life.  Don't let your outer environment and it's events and happenings get to you as you see them happening but be in a state where you see them, you observe them but you aren't involved in them because you are living in your new life. Instead of spending your precious time and energy wishing for a better life and life situations and events, create them by living in this state already and feeling your life as the life you want and desire and before you know it, one day it dawns on you like a miracle, like magic that you are truly living the life, living your dream, it's no longer a mirage but the real deal.

It's really simple and it starts with you connecting to the divinity within you, your Higher Self which is your true authentic self and it has all the answers and solutions that you need, it only awaits your connection to it so that it can show you the way and how and you start to live your dream. To reconnect with the divinity within you, you must change your negative mindset, thoughts and emotions to positive mindset, thoughts and emotions which changes your state of consciousness and mind from anxiety, tension and stress to peace, calm and joy. It is in this state of peace calm and joy that you are connected to the divinity within, to the authentic source of life and that power within you is the miracle maker that makes everything you have ever wanted, imagined and dreamed of to come true, not someone else but you make it happen for you 

Until you value yourself above everything else, trusting in life to make things right for you, having absolute faith in the divinity within you and the Divine Source of all life, that life will always sort itself out no matter what and you accept life as it comes no matter from which angle and direction the wind of life bloweth from, you won't be able to achieve your dreams and desires and be that person you have always dreamed of becoming. Until you value your own time and space, having none for anything and everything not pertinent to your dreams and desires no matter what they may be, you will not achieve anything worthwhile nor do something concrete and valuable with your time.

People show you their true colours when times get rough, that's why the only person you can count on and rely on in absolute faith, belief and trust is You, not the physical you which is limited in its ability to have a 360 degree viewpoint of life and it's issues but the divinity within you which has this ability and is always ready to guide you and direct appropriately and in the right direction.

When some things go wrong in your life and life experiences, firstly take a break, breath easy and calm yourself, then take a moment to be thankful and grateful for the many things in your life and life experiences that have gone right and turned out better than you ever expected or imagined and then be thankful and grateful for the things that are still going right and also for all those that will go right and even beyond your wildest imagination. Remember, abundance flourishes in a grateful heart, when you are peaceful and calm, and gratitude becomes your state of consciousness, you are connected to the divinity within you, then life will begin to bring avalanche of blessings, abundance, success and all the good things that you have dreamt about your entire life and it all begins with you, so are you such a person who can and will make their dreams come true?

🌱useful daily habits🌱

🔮Stretch in the morning and in the evening: since I started stretching first thing in the morning, and last thing in the evening, my muscles are less tense. In the morning you’ll feel less sleepy and more active; meanwhile, in the evening it’ll help relax your muscles and have a more comfortable sleep.

🔮Write down your dreams/nightmares: if you have a nightmare and can’t go back to sleep, write it down somewhere. It’ll fade from your mind and you’ll be able to fall asleep again without getting any more nightmares. Also, writing down your dreams and searching the meaning of them might make you understand what’s your brain/heart going through.

🔮Meditate once in a while: meditating rewired my brain. I do it once in a while because I don’t always have the time, but it shouldn’t feel like a chore! It should be something you do for your own wellness; you won’t regret it as you will feel calmer, confident, and at peace.

🔮Journal and write gratitude: spending even just 5/10 minutes writing down your toughts in the evening and how certain things made you feel helped me take off things from my mind, treat it like your secret diary. Meanwhile writing down at least 3 things you’re grateful for every day will improve your happiness and will make you more self-conscious about how privileged you are!

🔮Gua-sha or roll your face: depuff your face and improve blood circulation, other than make those cheekbones look SNATCHED and you soon won’t need contour (be consistent!).

🔮Read at least 20 minutes a day: reading at least 20 minutes a day, usually before bed, is my favorite hobby. I get off my phone, it makes me more productive, and reading itself is a very healthy habit.

P.S. daily reminder that you're not forced to follow up with everything on this list! everyone has different priorities and necessities, so i just wanted to share what worked for me. don't pressure yourself to always reach the impossible standard that social media wants us to have, live your life and have fun!<3

stay safe! xx💞

Manifesting your dream life: A practical guide to turning thoughts into reality

Manifesting is the art of transforming desires into reality by aligning your thoughts, emotions, and actions with your goals. While it has often been associated with mystical or spiritual concepts, modern psychology and neuroscience provide a scientific basis for how manifestation works. By setting clear intentions, fostering a positive mindest, and taking inspired action, you can create the life you envision.

In this article, we'll break down the manifestation process, debunk common myths, and offer practical steps to help you manifest your dreams.

What is manifesting?

Manifesting is the process of consciously attracting experiences, opportunities, and success into your life. It is based on the idea that your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs influence your reality. When you focus on what you want (instead of what you lack), you open yourself up to possibilities that align with your vision.

At its core, manifesting in not just about thinking positive thoughts - it requires action, commitment, and belief in yourself.

The science behind manifestation

Though often linked to spiritual teachings, manifestation is backed by psychological and neurological principles:

The reticular activating system (RAS): This part of the brain acts as a filter, helping you focus on what's important. When you consistently think about your goals, your RAS notices opportunitites and resources that align with them.

Neuroplasticity: The brain can rewire itself based on repeated thoughts and behaviours. Visualizing success strengthens neural pathways, making it easier to take confident, goal-oriented action.

The law of attraction: Though sometimes misunderstood as a passive force, this concept suggests that the energy you put out through thoughts, emotions, and actions shapes the circumstances you attract.

How to manifest what you want

1. Set a clear intention

Manifest starts with clarity. Instead of vague goals like "I want to be successful," be specific:

The more detailed your intention, the easier it is for your mind to focus on it.

2. Visualize your desired outcome

Spend a few minutes each day picturing yourself achieving your goal. Engage all your senses - how does it feel, look, and sound? This practice rewires your brain to believe that success is possible, making it more likely that you'll take the necessary steps to achieve it.

3. Identify and overcome limiting beliefs

Many people unknowingly block their manifestations with self-doubt. If you have thoughts like:

"I'm not smart enough to start a business."

"I'll never find true love."

Challange these beliefs by replacing them with empowering affirmations:

* "I am capable of learning and growing my business."

* "I am worthy of love and meaningful relationships."

4. Take inspired action

Manifesting isn't just about wishing - it requires actions. If you want a better job, apply for positions, upgrade your skills, and network. If you want financial abundance, start budgeting, investing, or launching a side hustle. The universe responds when you take the first step.

5. Practice gratitude and posivity

A grateful mindset shifts your focus from lack to abundance. Keep a gratitude journal and list things you appreciate daily. This raises your energy and attracts more positive experiences.

6. Trust the process and let go

Obsessing over the outcome creates resistance. Instead of worrying about when things will happen, trust that the right opportunities will unfold at the perfect time.

Common myths about manifestation

"Manifestation is just wishful thinking."

* Reality: Manifestation works when combined with action and mindset shifts.

"You have to be positive 24/7."

* Reality: Negative emotions are normal. Acknowlege them, but don't let them control your actions.

"If it doens't happen quickly, it's not working."

* Reality: Manifestation is a process. Some goals take time to materialize.

Final thoughts

Manifesting is not about sitting back and hoping for miracles - it's about aligning your thoughts, beliefs, and actions with your dreams. By setting clear intentions, visualizing success, taking inspired action, and maintaining a positive mindset, you can create meaningful change in your life.

Start today: what is one thing you want to manifest?

Write it down, take a small step toward it, and watch how opportunities begin to unfold!

✨Daily Passage: “Beauty: Opening Our Eyes to the Beauty That Surrounds Us”

✨Daily Tarot: Ace of Wands 🌟 Bonus: Knight of Swords

✨Much like cultivating an attitude of gratitude for all things, appreciating the beauty that’s all around us & inside us is a practice that we can intentionally nurture. We will see that splendor abounds if we hold space for it.

✨“Suddenly one day we feel very much alive & desire more beauty in our personal quest. We come to a deep awareness that creating a beautiful life is our highest calling.” –Simple Abundance

✨“Let your eyes drink in the beauty that surrounds you. . . . It is in the details of life that beauty is revealed, sustained, & nurtured.” –Simple Abundance

✨Ace of Wands: “Upright: Inspiration, potential, creation, enthusiasm” –Ethereal Visions

✨Knight of Swords: “Upright: Stubborn, determined, brash, overbearing” –Ethereal Visions

✨Traditional RWS: 🎴Ace of Wands: creative spark, energetic, inspired. 🎴Knight of Swords: ambitious, daring, focused.

✨In the context of today’s passage from Simple Abundance, I believe Spirit could be bringing us a couple of different messages with these cards.

✨On one hand, Spirit could be reminding us how quickly our lives will improve if we begin to focus on the positive. Actively choosing to hold space for the good & beautiful things in your life actually rewires your brain to find more of those splendid things to focus on.

✨Another interpretation could be that there’s a creative or beautification project that you’ve been dreaming up . . . & if that’s the case, Spirit is encouraging you to go for it! This is your reminder that holding space for yourself & the beauty that you bring into the world is just as important as honoring the splendor that exists outside of you.

✨What’s your biggest takeaway from today’s reading? Let me know in the comments! I’d love to hear what’s coming up for you!

Unleashing Your Limitless Potential

Life is too short to let negative thoughts hold you back. Yet, most of us unknowingly let our minds sabotage us. Why? Because it’s easier to stay comfortable. But comfort isn’t where growth happens. 🌱 Let’s talk about how to take control of your thoughts, overcome limiting beliefs, and create a life you love.

Thoughts Shape Actions

Everything we do starts with a thought. But not all thoughts are created equal. Some empower us, while others keep us stuck. So, here’s the million-dollar question: What are you telling yourself?

Negative thoughts often sound like:

“I’m not good enough.”

“I can’t compete with them.”

“Why even try?”

These thoughts are roadblocks, keeping you from the success you deserve. But here’s the thing: you can train your brain to think differently. 🧠💡

Real-World Examples of Mindset Shifts

Let me share two pivotal stories from my own journey:

1️⃣ Competing Against Giants:

When I was invited to a major competition to promote a product I believed in, I felt out of my league. My competitors were industry giants with massive followings. My initial thought was: “Why bother? I don’t stand a chance.”

But I flipped the script. Instead of focusing on what I lacked, I focused on what I could gain. I visualized myself succeeding, and even though I only saw myself as #2, I still ended up achieving that goal. Imagine if I had visualized being #1!

2️⃣ Leaving My Comfort Zone:

When I transitioned from real estate to coaching, I joined a mastermind group filled with brilliant minds. I felt like an imposter. “I don’t belong here,” I told myself. But I stayed. Over time, I not only found my footing but surpassed many of those I once admired.

The key takeaway? Your comfort zone is your biggest enemy.

Overcoming Limiting Beliefs

Limiting beliefs are the silent killers of dreams. They often stem from:

Past experiences.

Opinions of others.

Fear of failure.

To break free, you must first identify these beliefs. Then, challenge them. Ask yourself: Is this belief helping me or holding me back?

A Simple Brain Training Exercise

Try this daily exercise to rewire your thoughts:

Morning mantra: Start your day by repeating a positive affirmation. For example, “I am capable of achieving anything I set my mind to.”

Visualize your goals: Close your eyes and imagine yourself living the life you want. Be as detailed as possible.

Gratitude practice: Write down three things you’re grateful for every day.

Your Thoughts, Your Reality

Remember: thoughts become things. If you believe in your ability to succeed, you’ll find ways to make it happen. If you let doubt creep in, you’ll stay stuck.

What’s Next?

In the next blog post, we’ll tackle how to dismantle limiting beliefs and replace them with empowering ones. Stay tuned, and don’t forget to take that first step today. Your limitless life awaits. 🚀

HI MS MAOMAO may i. may i humbly come to your blog to beg for dan heng scraps or small hcs from art of the bedchamber... i feel so starved (theres so little dan heng content anywhere. ive been resorting to laying in my bed at 2 am hands crossed over my stomach and malapadatively daydreaming abt gege... save me)...

i'm not even joking when i say that art of the bedchamber is on my mind 25/8. literally every hour of every day i am thinking very hard about dan heng in that fic... and that universe... it literally rewired my brain chemistry the first time i read that fic.

i wish i could say more about that fic but all i can ever say about that fic is "gege" because every time i read it i want to say everything all at once which leads to me just gawking at my phone and just contemplating the fact that i will never have a boyfriend like dan heng.

this could literally turn into an entire essay on my sheer love and adoration for art of the bedchamber but i fear i need to go i have a. uh. i have an exam tomorrow. and. uh. i haven't studied at all for it i'm about to self study so hard i'm gonna make an academic comeback.

anyways just wanted to pop by in anon (am shy ㅠㅠ) and express my gratitude for being my favorite dan heng writer EVER and for writing THE dan heng fic EVER. i was NOT okay after reading that fic and i will NEVER be okay after any time i read that fic it makes me sob every time

HI ANON.... sorry for replying to this late IT WAS QUITE LATE FOR ME LAST NIGHT WHEN I RECEIVED IT AFPGJALDJ but I reblogged some old snippets/hcs for you and I hope you saw & enjoyed them!!! I had contemplated posting something else from the actual second chapter (which has been like 95% done for literally a year now) but then I realised I should probably just finish the damn thing and actually post it LOL

thank you for saying so many kind words about it also 🥺💗 I put so much heart into that fic unironically (beautiful dragon men have that effect on me) and I'm so happy to hear that it's left such an impression you!!! I too always contemplate about how I will never have a boyfriend danheng ....I write to fill the gege-shaped hole in my life 😔✊

I HOPE THE EXAM WENT WELL FOR YOU TODAY ALSO!! please be sure to rest up and treat yourself to something nice now that it's over!! dan heng would want it!!!!!!
