Expert tips for successful manifestation
It’s not just what you do while manifesting; it’s about what you do before and after that make all the difference, according to Bryant Wood and Frank Elaridi, co-founders of Modern Nirvana Summit and co-authors of the Modern Nirvana Oracle Deck.
Elaridi told TODAY that it’s crucial to visualize the end result before you even start the manifestation process. “If you’re trying to attract love, put yourself in the mindset of someone who just loves themselves so much and embodies love,” he said, adding that this shouldn’t come from a place of neediness, but of power.
Slow and controlled breathing can also add to the experience. Wood, who is a breathwork coach, says that when you slow your nervous system down by taking deep breaths with long exhalations, you’re able to reach a mental state where your brain can receive any affirmations you want to tell yourself. “You begin to feel a huge difference in your nervous system. You begin to heal, you begin to access the subconscious,” he told TODAY.
And, once you’re done, you have to release your manifestation into the universe and let it go. By doing this, you’re putting faith in the universe that what you manifested will happen. “You have the most power when you let go of it and accept it,” Elaridi said.

Find your zen with Modern Nirvana
Modern Nirvana, formed by actress Kat Graham,
energy healer Frank Elaridi, and breathwork instructor Bryant Wood, seeks to help people take control of their spiritual and physical wellbeing.
To learn about some achievable practices to capitalize on and boost our wellness, we reached out to Frank Elaridi, co-founder and emotion code practitioner of Modern Nirvana.”My company Modern Nirvana recently published the Modern Nirvana Oracle Deck with Chronicle Books to help people receive daily guidance on their path. Dating back to 1400 BC, the Oracle of Delphi was among the most important shrines in ancient Greece. People traveled from all regions of Greece and even beyond, to ask questions about their future to the priestess of Apollo. Her answers could determine the course of everything from where a person should build their home to when an empire declared war.
The search for meaning and direction in life was very much in style among our ancestors, and remains especially fashionable today. Whether we are a seasoned yogi or new on the path, whether we believe deeply in the cards or if we do it just for fun, Tarot cards and oracle decks seem to embody an intuitive power that, amid times of pandemics and potential wars, can be difficult to access without some help.”

SPA + WELLNESS
Meditation expert, biohacker and emotional healer Frank Elaridi of Modern Nirvana says the key to meditating at the beginning “is not to try not to think, but rather become aware of the thoughts. Witness them.” He compares the phenomenon to “a dog walking down the street. You want to witness the thought and let it pass rather than hold on to it or try to make it go away. Be gentle with yourself, and don’t take it too seriously so that meditation becomes enjoyable and not a chore.”

Frank Elaridi: There are plenty of studies that have shown the negative psychological effects of too much screen time on both children and adults. It’s way too easy to turn to the phone the second a kid feels bored, so the key is to create choices for them. Give your children options of other things to do depending on their ages: sports, outdoor activities, friend hangouts, and meditation apps are all helpful options.
The truth, according to many ancient sages, including my personal teacher the Sage Vasistha is that self-effort trumps karma. The actions of past lives creates the karma we are currently experiencing, but the power of self-effort in the current moment is infinitely greater. Signs of emotional bypassing include the following:
- Being self-righteous about the concept of enlightenment: The power of an enlightened person is that they do not go around preaching or insisting everyone follow them. They teach the world simply by their way of life and their existence. In my own life, I have seen that when I tried to preach something to my family, they didn’t get on board. However when I simply existed and they witnessed certain changes, they would ask questions and I was happy to answer and even bring them along on some of my spiritual adventures.
- Being overly detached: These are the people who pretending that everything is okay when it’s not.
Having feelings of entitlement: this is when a person on the spiritual path belittles others who do not agree with them or their practice. Or when they feel their way is the only real truth. Exhibiting frequent anger: With the repression of feelings and emotions, while denying what’s actually being experienced, anger is a natural side effect. - Being overly compassionate: compassionate in order to compensate for the internal anger, or to prove to oneself that everything is okay.
There are those who run away from their problems by going on spiritual retreats or following certain popular teachers from state to state, and country to country. Sometimes the reason they are seeking that experience constantly is because when they return home, the feeling of enlightenment and peace fades away slowly along with their vacation-tan. The best recommendation I could offer someone interested in rising above the trap of spiritual bypassing is to do the work. Often called “shadow work” in the spiritual work, this is the idea of unearthing all of the suppressed feelings and experiences we have swept under the rug, and face them. When I am working with my private clients I focus on healing trapped emotions from past traumas and life experiences on an energetic level. It is incredible and borderline miraculous to witness the change they experience just from clearing the energetic blocks keeping them from having the work, money and relationships they say they want. I’ve even seen clients send me testimonials that their chronic symptoms disappeared when they addressed their emotional trauma. One thing you could also try to practice on your own is radical acceptance. I always remind people that you don’t have to be ready to do it, just be willing to try. Today my friend texted me saying that years ago someone told him that he always dates girls that are not right for him. He resented it at the time, but through the mindful practice of acceptance, he realized the person was right and that he was dating attractive women who were emotionally and intellectually unavailable because he was repressing the high school trauma of feeling unworthy of the pretty girls. Learning to accept who we have been in the past and who we are in the right now, can help us to become willing to make mistakes. We can laugh at the cosmic joke, the predicament, that we find ourselves in: being human and navigating life! You got this! Be gentle with yourself and know that you are doing the best you can.
