Manifestation is the process of turning ideas or dreams into tangible experiences, by sending a coherent quantum signal through to the Quantum Field that generates materializations of experiences which match this signal in physical reality.
An important step to manifesting is setting clear and focused intentions – something which can be accomplished through visualisation exercises and gratitude practices.
