Have you ever felt like the universe is playing a game of hide-and-seek with you? Like no matter how hard you try, your manifestations get lost in transit, and all you receive are bills, unexpected traffic, and that one co-worker who steals your lunch? If so, it might be time to align your energy with the universe.


Now, before you roll your eyes and assume this is just another “raise your vibrations” pep talk, stick with me. We’re going to break it down in a fun, relatable way—because spirituality should never be boring.
Step 1: Declutter Your Inner and Outer Space
You can’t expect the universe to bless you with abundance if you’re holding onto expired coupons and emotional baggage from 2007. Clean your space, sage your home (if you’re into that), and let go of relationships, thoughts, and habits that no longer serve you. Studies suggest that decluttering reduces stress and enhances mental clarity (Tidy Mind, Tidy Life, 2020).
Step 2: Tune Into Gratitude
Gratitude is like Wi-Fi for the universe—it connects you to the divine frequency of abundance. Instead of focusing on what’s missing, appreciate what you already have. Even if all you have is a cup of coffee and a cat that occasionally acknowledges your existence, say thank you! Research shows that practicing gratitude can increase happiness by up to 25% (Harvard Health, 2021).
Step 3: Speak the Language of the Universe (AKA, Affirmations)
The universe is like that one friend who only responds to positive texts. If you’re constantly saying, “I’m broke,” “I hate my job,” or “Dating is the worst,” you’re basically sending the universe a cosmic thumbs-down. Flip the script. Try affirmations like:
“Money flows to me effortlessly.”
“I attract opportunities like a magnet.”
“My love life is as smooth as my favorite latte.”

Step 4: Meditate (Without Overthinking It)
Meditation doesn’t mean you have to sit cross-legged on a mountain in total silence. You can meditate while sipping tea, taking a walk, or even listening to music. The goal is to quiet your mind and tune into your higher self. Neuroscientists say meditation can reduce stress, enhance creativity, and improve decision-making (Mindfulness Matters, 2022).
Step 5: Take Inspired Action
Manifestation isn’t about wishing on a star and waiting for Amazon Prime delivery. You have to take action. Want a new job? Apply. Want love? Go outside. The universe will meet you halfway, but you have to make the first move.
Step 6: Trust Divine Timing
Patience is key. If things aren’t happening as fast as you’d like, trust that the universe has a plan. Maybe you’re being protected from a situation you’re not ready for. Maybe that delay is a cosmic detour to something better. Either way, chill.
Your Energy is Your Superpower
Aligning your energy with the universe isn’t about perfection; it’s about consistency. Clear the clutter, express gratitude, speak positivity, meditate, take action, and trust the process. Before you know it, you’ll be in sync with the universe, and those manifestations will finally stop ghosting you.
So go ahead—align, attract, and enjoy the magic. The universe is listening!
