Why ‘Positive Thinking’ Doesn’t Work (And What to Do Instead)

As someone who talks a lot about the Law of Attraction, manifestation and maintaining a high vibration it may seem contradictory to state that positive thinking doesn’t work, but in reality there is a certain type of ‘positive thinking’ that does more harm than good.

This type of attitude is one where we ignore anything that we label as negative and stay away from addressing the harsh, upsetting, dark elements of our psyche. It is about avoiding the shadow and only embracing what makes us feel good on a surface level.

There is so much information about the Law of Attraction, from so many different sources, that it is easy to gain a distorted view of how to go about manifesting. In this post I want to talk about positive thinking, spiritual bypassing and a more balanced and sustainable approach to facing the positive and negative.

The 4 Stages of Manifestation: Which Are You In?

I remember reading the book The Secret for the first time, and was introduced to the concept of the law of attraction. The way I looked at things quickly changed and although I didn’t directly implement the techniques for some time…a seed was planted in my mind.

For many this introduction to manifestation leaves a lot to interpretation, and it can feel as if the process itself doesn’t work. However the law of attraction is a lot deeper than what you may read in one article or book.

The law of attraction is essentially the journey we take from inside out in order to shift the environment around us. It involves more than surface level thought, but a continual dive into our deep-seeded blocks and limiting beliefs. It’s a journey rather than a step by step process.

How to Attract Abundance

Turning your life around starts with mindset, but how do we begin to shift our mindset when the physical circumstances around us seem so bleak? How can we tune into abundance when we are broke, depressed and feeling unmotivated?

There’s a reason so many fail with the Law of Attraction: they don’t allow what they perceive as negative thoughts and beliefs to fully come up to the surface to be released. They hide negativity behind insincere affirmations and a cover of positivity.

Simply putting a facade of positivity does nothing to shift your external surroundings when the Universe is receiving a internal signal of fear and doubt. How do we begin to truly embody abundance and start seeing that reflected in our lives?

How to Manifest While You Sleep

Working with the Law of Attraction generally goes one of two ways: you try it out for some weeks but give up quickly when nothing manifests, or you have great success with it and your whole life is changed.

I’m sure most reading this article has watched or read The Secret at one point in their life, this was a book that really bought the concept of the Law of Attraction to the masses.

However for a lot of people there is something missing. They do all the affirmations and exercizes but nothing happens, there’s a block there but they aren’t sure what it is.
