Wish you could magic up happiness and good fortune? Well, some believe you can, simply by imagining it. Yes, it might sound a bit ‘woo woo’, but manifesting – also known as cosmic ordering – is the practice of visualising how you want your life to be and relying on this positive energy to then bring it into existence. It’s a method that’s been used for thousands of years. ‘Manifesting simply means bringing something into the realm of conscious awareness,’ explains expert and author Carolyn Boyes*.
HOW TO DO IT
1 Close your eyes and imagine yourself with the thing you want. How does it feel?
2 Pretend that whatever you’re wishing for is happening right now. Take a few minutes to observe your life, as if watching a movie of it playing out.
3 Now open your eyes and say ‘thank you’ to the universe.
4 If there are practical steps that you can take to get closer to your dream, take them. Otherwise, trust that the universe has it in hand, let it go and wait.

A study** found that women with high levels of optimism were less likely to die of major diseases, such as cancer.
