The LOA and New Age go hand and hand in most areas. The LOA is dangerously close to a religion. You are just replacing "Universe" with "God" and "prayer" with "visualization".

Its called NEW AGE. It IS a religion and a fast growing one at that, especially in the Western world. 

Chakras, angels, meditation, yoga, Higher self, thinking creates reality, we are all one, etc. This is New Age. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, its a duck.

Dont be fooled into thinking this is "not a religion". It most certainly is. Im not saying this is a bad thing, but cmon guys call a spade a spade. For heaven's sake Esther channels a non-physical entity group called "Abraham" and Darrel channels "Bashar". This is called occultic religion. Outside of traditional orthodoxy of most monotheistic religion. Its more Hindu than anything.

Disagree with me or not but im glad im done with it. The law of attraction does work and has merit...but when you get into mind control, praying to a universal force, looking at signs and wonders, consulting angels, opening chakras, ignoring reality for the sake of your "vibe"...you have become completely delusional and have pretty much entered your own world void of any relational reality with "real life". 

I am glad I am out.


ps: I do believe your words, thoughts and emotions do help shift your perception of reality which in turn helps you act differently to effect reality. Any more than this, I would attribute to Divine working and not my own. Some things are just meant to be. I know you dont like to "not be in control" but, from dust you come and dust you shall go. You are NOT God no matter what a channeled entity says. You are human, you evolved from apes and you have a magnificent brain to make GOOD decisions with

Maybe I don't really get your point here, but we have one choice in our lifes: We can observe what is and feel bad about all that crap that is outside or we can deliberately choose our thoughts. Even without knowing anything about LoA, I'm sure everyone would agree with me that it is better for your mental health to concentrate on the things you like.

Visualisation is something we do all the time without recognizing it or calling it visualisation. If you can stop thinking about things and imagine things, that's great, I can't. One can live happily ever after without any religion but one can't live without thoughts, feelings and imagination.

I wouldn't call meditation New Age. It has a proven effect on the brain and helps people in their lifes. Yoga is a good way to get fit, strengthen your body and stay healthy. So I don't understand why this is New Age. That thoughts create reality is my personal experience. I gave up on convincing others that reality works that way, but for me it is very real and I see it work in my life every day in very specific ways that are impossible to ignore.
What people mean by ignoring reality is that you don't focus on what you don't want and think about what you do want instead. It's not that people go on a walk with their imaginary dog or that they don't pay their bills because they don't exist in their reality. So nothing delusional about that in my opinion.
I felt bad my whole life because I have concentrated on things I didn't like, now I feel better because I stopped doing it. Is this a bad thing? Do you tell me I should start again with focusing on what I don't want to not be delusional?

That we are not god is something you can't really know. It would be possible. It's just your belief and it's as valid as every other belief on that topic. I have seen events happen in my life that have nothing to do with selective perception or psychological concepts like this and I don't think that somebody sits somewhere in the sky and decides if I get what I focus upon or not.
The good thing about LoA is that you don't have to just believe it. You can work with it and see what happens. So I would recommend that everyone makes their own experiences and decides for themselfs if LoA is real or just something psychological.

I don't want to start a big discussion here or pick a fight, but I want to give a different view on it, especially for our newer members so that they can decide what resonates with them more.

If you consider 'meant to be' you will always have limitation of asking and keep having thoughts of resistance if you can't see what you want happening.

So how does the above sit with the people who want exes back or relationships with specific individuals?

My take on this? LOA is real, it's here, and it is the universal force that keeps our planets spinning and our lives evolving. You have 2 options - you can either jump in eagerly and participate as a deliberate creator.. or live by default and observe /react to what's going on around you. You can change the course of your life drastically and to your own specifications, or you can live under the assumption that your life is in the hands of a higher power. And the best part? It's all perfect either way. It's YOUR life, and you all get to choose! How fabulous is that? The ultimate freedom! 😊💜👏🏼
