From Skeptic to Believer: Decoding “The Secret”

Over the years, truth seekers have been intrigued on the concept of manifestation which involves the belief of a higher force that grants our deepest desires. Some call it the universe, others call it God; others refer to it as their higher consciousness.
Skeptical at first, I questioned its existence and embarked on a journey in a world full of people drawn to fate and luck.
It all began when I watched for the first time the documentary titled “The Secret” by Rhonda Byrne which claims to have changed the lives of millions of people. The title itself was intriguing and captivating, so I dived in, not knowing the secrets I am yet to unravel.
Considered as one of the 12 universal laws governing our existence, the Law of Attraction proposes that positive thinking brings positive results in our lives. The energy that we invest in our thoughts and feelings resonate to us in the form of life experiences. Eager to explore more about this concept, I dug deeper.

The Missing Piece
My quest for understanding the Law of Attraction has led me to the teachings of a lot of spiritual gurus. I followed the methods of famous teachers and believers but initially found no success. I was trying to figure out what went wrong in my process since it seems to have worked for others but not for me. As I continued my research, I stumbled on the teachings of Neville Goddard, an author and spiritual teacher, who emphasized the idea that thoughts and imagination can shape our reality.
That was when I understood that Rhonda Byrne’s “The Secret” was just an introduction to a deeper understanding of the great power our mind holds. At that point, I have figured out the missing piece of the puzzle in order to make the law of attraction work for me. Lo and behold, the secret of the law of attraction is the ‘feeling’. It is not enough to just think positively as I have to immerse myself in the feeling of already possessing my desires.
Armed with a new understanding, I decided to embark on a journey to self-discovery and personal improvement with the help of meditation to clear my limiting beliefs. Affirmations became my daily ritual. Eventually, I started seeing results, as well as other people too. When you feel great on the inside, it reflects on the outside.

Subliminal messages
Furthering my research, I have come across more information and manifestation techniques that blew my mind – not to mention that it is supported by scientific research. Subliminal messages are hidden words that target the subconscious mind by sending messages straight to it. It is important to note that 95 to 99% of our lives are operated from our subconscious mind which influences our decisions, beliefs, feelings, thoughts, habits and more.

Vibration, Binaural beats and Solfeggio frequencies
Albert Einstein, dubbed as the greatest physicist of all time, said that everything in our universe is vibration. Your level of vibration will greatly affect your process of manifestation. Higher frequencies such as joy, happiness and love, work best in manifesting. Realizing that my level of vibration holds the key to manifesting my desires, I raised it through activities that I love to do and of course, meditation.
As I continue my meditation practices, I have encountered the existence of different brainwave frequencies that affect our mind when we are in a certain level of sleep – Binaural beats. They are created by combining two different frequencies and are believed to alter brain waves. In a 2018 study, it was said that listening to binaural beats for a period of time can affect one’s subsequent behavior and sleep cycles. It has been proven that through it, you can reach a deep meditative state, perfect in aligning with the law of attraction.
Another popular type of healing sound that captured my attention is the Solfeggio frequencies (ranging from 174 Hz to 963 Hz) which is a series of electromagnetic tones believed to have healing properties and raise consciousness. These are based from many ancient and sacred music traditions such as Gregorian and Indian Sanskrit chants. Each frequencies are believed to have their own benefits like the 174 Hz, for example, which is known for its impact on the physical body and can relieve body pain, stress and headaches; and 417 Hz which is believed to help remove negative energy from one’s aura.

Transformation Testimony
By learning how to harness the power of my mind and feelings, manifesting became a lot easier to me. But the best part of it, I gained more confidence and belief in myself. I became happier and more content.
One by one, my dreams materialized before my eyes. Projects I had only dreamed came to life, recognitions came and my relationship has flourished – I even manifested my husband!
My personal journey with the law of attraction has made me realize the limitless potential the human mind possesses. There may be a lot of twists but I can attest to the extraordinary capabilities of our mind. It has taught me to dream so big and push myself to reach my full potential which I know that you, too, can achieve.
