The theory behind the law of attraction is the belief that energy attracts like
energy in the vast expanse of space and time that comprises our universe. Each person’s
being is constantly radiating energy out into space; the type of energy being radiated is
determined by the emotional state of the individual in question and may differ from day
to day-sometimes even hour to hour!
This emotional energy is what is commonly known as a “vibe” and is referred to
as a vibration by scientists studying the law of attraction. Chances are that you are
familiar with the term. Have you ever been with someone who is so happy they seem to
be radiating a “glow which inspires happiness in all those around them? By the same
token, have you ever spent time with someone who was so critical and unhappy that they
consistently gave off a “negative vibe” which seemed to suck the life and happiness out
of all those around them?
You do not have to possess psychic powers to be able to feel the vibes that people
emit; this energy is very real on a psychological plane and will affect anyone, anywhere
at any time. Our vibrations are usually an unconscious response to some form of
environmental stimulus; something has happened which has caused us to feel happy, or
sad, or scared, or confused, or stressed, etc., and our subconscious response to this
(because vibes are generated and projected from the subconscious rather than the
conscious) is something that is beyond our control.
Chances are the person who is emitting a negative vibe does not choose to be
unhappy, nor do they wish to inflict their unhappiness on all those around them by the
simple fact of their presence. (Before you say what you are thinking, yes, there are some
exceptions to this rule. Misery does love company and there are many who take a great
deal of delight in inflicting their pain on other people. It is important to understand that
this is not usually done in a desire to cause others pain but out a desire to not feel so alone
in their unhappiness. But we digress...)
There are a number of feelings which lead to positive and negative vibes being
emitted, and it is important before we continue on any form of discussion about the law
of attraction that you understand what each of these are (you’ll understand the reasons for
this a little later).
Positive vibes
Positive vibes are generated from good feelings, such as:
! Joy
! Love
! Excitement
! Abundance (of anything that causes a positive response)
! Pride
! Comfort
! Confidence
! Affection
Negative vibes
Negative vibes are generated from negative feelings, such as:
! Disappointment
! Loneliness
! Lack (of any of life’s necessities or luxuries)
! Sadness
! Confusion
! Stress
! Anger
! Hurt
What do Vibes Have to With the Law of Attraction?
As we mentioned earlier the fundamental principle of the law of attraction is the
belief that life energy attracts like energy. This means that if a person is emitting positive
vibes they will draw good things to them and if they are emitting negative vibes they will
draw bad things to them.
”You are a living magnet, attracting what you want.”
You have seen this principle in practice before. Have you ever known someone
who was always upbeat and positive and seemed to be too lucky to be true? On the flip
side, you have certainly known someone who loved to complain and look on the darker
sides of life that always seemed to have something new to complain about because things
were always going wrong in their life. These examples show people attracting the results
of the energy they are giving off.
“Remember, you attract to your life whatever you give your attention, energy and
focus to, whether wanted or unwanted.” Michael J. Losier
Does this mean that all of the bad things that happen to you in this life are because
you subconsciously wanted them to? This is one of the most common arguments against
the concept of the law of attraction and it often the hardest to refute because people have
not yet recognized that the law of attraction is not a pipe dream or something that
someone dreamed up while sitting on their porch one hot summer night. It is a fact of life,
and its effects are far reaching.
In answer to your question, no, not everything bad that happens in your life is a
result of you subconsciously wishing for it to happen. Sometimes it is a result of someone
else wishing for it to happen. To quote an example from a website pertaining to the law of
attraction a child or a spouse who is abused is not abused because they wished for this
abuse to happen. This abuse happened because the abuser allowed their negative thoughts
concerning their child or spouse to creep across their subconscious until they eventually
began to dictate their actions.
The mind is a powerful thing, and where the mind goes the feet will soon follow.
The foundation of any success you are going to encounter in lie is not the ability of your
physical body to overcome the obstacles but of your mind to believe that a way lies
around them. “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” Where your mind can believe that
there is a way for the body to achieve its heart’s desire a way does exist.
