Using the Law of Attraction to ‘Attract’ a Good Night’s Sleep

Sleep is something we all need. Some of us need a solid eight hours while others get by fantastically on much less. Teenagers are notorious for needing lots of sleep.  

No matter how many hours your body seems to need, we all need this “downtime” to rest and repair our bodies and our minds. 

We don’t always get the rest we need for a variety of reasons and missing out on sleep can be detrimental to our mood and our health.

So if you find yourself struggling with insomnia, take heart: you can apply the Law of Attraction to get that much-needed night’s sleep.

One of the most common threads behind people who do not sleep well is the belief that they do not sleep well. They even tell all their friends about their difficulty sleeping. That is the Law of Attraction at work, but not in a way that benefits your health.

Have you ever watched someone sleep? Perhaps a partner, a child, or even the family dog? If you have, you will have noticed that their energy is different. You can visually see when your loved one is dreaming. This is what scientists call the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) phase of sleep and this is when our mind does most of its restorative work.

Even if you sleep all day long, constant interruption during the REM stage of sleep will leave you feeling the exact opposite of rested and refreshed.

There are other stages of sleep that are also important for our health, but REM is the easiest for us to see without sophisticated equipment. With that equipment, scientists have shown that our brain wave patterns change during the various stages of sleep and are significantly different from when we are awake.

In order to get the relaxation and rejuvenation that we need from sleep, we have to get into a vibrational level that is similar to the sleeping brain wave patterns.

There are some devices that you can buy to help you achieve these brain patterns, but meditation is one of the best tools available to you. Focusing on your breath may be enough to settle your brain down and send you down the path to sleep. If your brain is still chattering away, adding a meditation tape can often be enough to distract the chatter.

Beyond meditation, it is important to apply the Law of Attraction to getting a good night’s sleep. Many sleep experts will tell you that you must go to sleep at the same time every night, or that you must not watch television, or you must (or must not) do x, y, z.

Instead of focusing on a list of things you must get just right, shifting your attitude and vibration is the answer.  Hold the intention that you will sleep well. Feel appreciation for all the things that went well that day. Talk to yourself in a loving, grateful, and appreciative way.

If you find your mind drifting to things you didn’t get done, tell your subconscious to remind you of the task in the morning, after your restful night’s sleep.

Visualize yourself sleeping soundly. Feel your body relaxing. Tell yourself how good a sleeper you are, that you sleep well and awake refreshed. Be grateful for your warm bed. Remember the positive people and moments in your day.

As we achieve our attitude of gratitude, our body and mind will relax with the pleasant thoughts. As you relax, your body and mind are already beginning to get the rest and relaxation they need to heal and for you to feel rested and refreshed--even before you drift off to sleep.

With practice, you will be able to achieve this rested state more quickly. One day soon, you may suddenly realize that you are sleeping well every night and you can’t remember the last time that you struggled to fall asleep.

Utilizing the Law of Attraction in Three Simple Steps

Thought is much more powerful than people assume and it can determine the entire makeup of your life. It is important to know that no outside forces may determine your thoughts. They are innately your own. By harnessing their power, you can benefit from the Law of Attraction.

How can you do this? By following these three simple steps:

Step One: Practice Visualization

In order for your dreams to become a reality, you must practice visualization.

Allow yourself to imagine your dreams as they are.

According to the Law of Attraction, this makes your dreams become reality; so, the next time you daydream, go with it.

Daydreaming can actually be beneficial in that it is literally the act of visualizing your dreams.

Step Two: Think Positively

Positive thoughts will attract positive outcomes. Let's say that you want to receive a promotion that is up for grabs at work.

First, visualize yourself receiving the promotion in your mind. After you do that, you must think positively about the situation. Think that you will get the promotion and chances are high that you will receive it. Don't allow yourself to think negatively. This can actually cost you the position. Negative thoughts can attract negative outcomes, just like positive thoughts can attract positive outcomes.

Step Three: Truly Believe

It isn't enough to visualize or think positively if you don't truly believe in the power of the Universe. You must wholly believe your positive thoughts are going to be actualized. Otherwise, you will not benefit from the Law of Attraction. Your thoughts cannot be falsely positive. And you can’t fake it! You must honestly believe with every ounce of your being that what you want will come to you. It gets easier to believe as your life experience shows this to be true and you see things starting to happen for you.

Follow these three simple steps to harness the power contained within the Law of Attraction. Simply visualize, think positively, and truly believe. You will see what a major impact these simple practices can have on your life. You will be able to improve your life in ways you have never imagined.

An Unlimited Universe

According to the Universal Law of Attraction the power to create our own reality is unlimited.  The universe is limitless, an invisible energy force which, because we are all connected by pure energy to everything else in the universe, means that our power to manifest our own reality is also unlimited.

The Universal Law of Attraction is based on the concept that like energy attracts like energy and that everything, including our thoughts are composed of energy.  Simply stated, we create what we think, or if we think positive thoughts we attract positive things into our lives, and if we think negative thoughts, we attract negative things into our life.

This law is always at work in our lives whether we are conscious of it or not.

If we truly believe the universe is unlimited, our thoughts are also unlimited. The problem is, although the potential of our thoughts is unlimited we often limit our own thinking.

People are naturally influenced and affected by the people around them. If we think about a typical day, we turn on the news and rarely hear anything positive. Bad news seems to sell.

We may find it hard to be truly happy for other people’s successes, and it is easy for most of us to nag, criticize, and say negative things about others.

We get caught up in negativity; hence, we limit the ability of our thoughts to become powerful because we doubt that things can really happen the way we want them to.  We evaluate our future success based on current situations.

The Universal Law of Attraction teaches that the universe is an ocean of possibilities without limits. You need only ask with great intention and focus on the things you want to attract into your life, and believe without doubt the ability of the universe to deliver whatever that is into your life. 

Sounds too simple?  

In a way, it is. It takes work to learn how to intentionally choose and focus your thoughts to harness the power of your thoughts to manifest the things you want in life.

The good news is that there are tools and techniques that you can use to become more fully conscious of how the Universal Law of Attraction is at work in your life, and how to harness the power of positive thinking to attract into your life the things you truly want to attract from a limitless universe of possibilities.
