Opening up a conversation about the role privilege plays in many manifestation success stories can go a long way towards helping people understand it’s not their fault if the things on their vision board feel a million miles away from their current reality. La Pompe-Moore believes that “no amount of affirmations, visualising, being grateful or working hard can eradicate inequity” but that “we can individually do everything we can to change how we see and respond to life, and that is the richest reward.” Manifesting isn't only about a new house, shiny apartment or physical goods,” says La Pompe-Moore. “It's a side effect of doing the inner work, where life feels rich with potential because we're changing how we see and respond to the world around us.”

Personal stories can indeed be aspirational,” she continues. “But when they’re used to sell something and those same steps don't work for some people, it can lead to them feeling that there must be something wrong with them.” Remember, no matter what anyone tells you, we don’t all have the same 24 hours in a day as Beyoncé. How to manifest mindfully: Giselle La Pompe-Moore, trauma-sensitive meditation teacher and author of Take It In: Do the Inner Work. Create Your Best Damn Life, has discovered through her work that “many people find themselves questioning and struggling with the language and practices of manifestation. It's always spoken about as being achievable for us all, but without any consideration to our unique differences or social, economic and personal realities.”

It’s true that manifestation can offer a useful framework for tuning in to what we really want out of life regardless of our current starting point or circumstances and just because your journey might be longer or harder than someone else’s doesn’t mean you’ll never get there. So make the vision board, wish on the crescent moon, and trust the universe if that feels right for you! Or create a manifestation practice that makes life feel full of magical potential!

Of course, not everything we think we want to call into our lives is in our best interests – dodgy exes, stressful jobs, certain ‘expected’ life goals – and the filtered Insta version of manifestation we’ve become accustomed to places far more emphasis on the acquisition of material goods than can possibly be healthy for any fledging super attractor.

Those privileges can make a huge difference to someone’s journey, and anyone who says otherwise is…well, wrong. But there’s a difference between knowing that where you’re starting from will affect how long and/or difficult your journey is, and assuming that manifestation, in general, is just an ignorant expression of privilege,” he says. This distinction is important to me because of the situation I started from,” says King. “I didn’t have money, I’m not white, and my family went through periods of homelessness and violence when I was younger. The law of attraction gave me a framework to channel my energy (and sometimes my anger) in a positive way, and gave me hope that my actions and choices mattered.”
