Welcome to the Joy Broadcast with me, Ali Mortimer. I was once upon a time an IT consultant, recoding systems in the retail industry to function better. And now I'm turned a life consultant and joy coach where I'd like to think I reprogram and recode hearts, minds, souls and lives to feel better. This podcast, the Joy Broadcast, is a way to bring joy to your life, whatever the weather, whatever you're doing. So. So you feel a pocket of positivity in every single day. If, like me, you've once upon a time found yourself wondering whether you will ever be happy again or if you're just staring at the kitchen sink wondering how you'll get through the next 10 minutes, this podcast is for you. Get you a glimmer of hope, a dose of happiness, or an infusion of joy right here, right now. Welcome to the Joy Broadcast. Hello and welcome back to the Joy Broadcast. I have to say, it has been rather chaotic in this last couple of weeks and I didn't even record a podcast last week because it was just too much. I had to take a little bit of a chill pill. Although the house has felt anything but chilled. As we continue the next phase. I think this is phase 3.5, as we knock down a pantry and we recreate an extension of our kitchen. I don't know why we decided to do it in the middle of half term. Anyway, shall we get back to what I wanted to talk about today? I'm sat in front of me with a manuscript, a manuscript that I wrote in the summer of. I think it was 2022. I think it was the summer of 2022. I know we were in a lockdown. I know it was hot. And I have a lot to say about this topic. It's one of my favorite conversations. It's a conversation about manifestation. And I know so many people talk about manifestation, but I believe that every single person has their own way of manifesting. We manifest all the time, every day, every mom we are today, the life we are living, how we are feeling, what we are experiencing is a true manifestation of who we have been, how we've been thinking, how we've been acting, how we've been feeling up till this point. So if we can do a reflection on those things, we can understand how and what we're going to manifest or co create or create an experience in our future. It really is that simple. I want to start with one thing. I have a couple of pet peeves, so I'm going to start there. I really struggle when people Talk about manifestation. And they say, I'm calling in. I'm calling in. I'm calling in. I'm calling in a new love. I'm calling in new clients, I'm calling in more money. If you have a deeper understanding or experience of manifestation, then you will know that the law of attraction states that that which is like unto itself is drawn. You're actually attracting back to yourself who you're being through the energy and the vibration of which you emit. And that energy and that vibration is you're feeling. And if you're calling in something, that means you're in a state of I don't have it yet. I don't have the thing that I'm calling in. And therefore you will continue to keep calling in what is lacking. You're in a state of lack. You're in that frequency of I don't have it, therefore you will continue to not have it. So if there's one thing I would love for you to take away today is stop saying calling it in. And anyone who's in my Love Club community, anyone who's been working with me privately, you will know that that's a big black mark. It's a no, don't call it in. It's about knowing that it's done. It's about experiencing it as if it is already done. And I want to take you there today. I want to take you on a little bit of a journey and a little bit of a story of how I came across manifestation and manifesting my own unique way. And perhaps it will help you understand how you have been manifesting in your own unique way too, so that you can do more of the same. So. So that you can amplify it. So, as I said, I've got this beautiful manuscript. You can hear it. It's here in paper form because I'm such a paper person. But it sat on my lap and as I said, it was something I wrote in 2022. I have a feeling it's going to become a book one day, but I'm not ready to write my books one day I'll go and sit by a lake. I have these beautiful visualizations of myself sitting by a lake and writing my books. A little bit like love, actually writing a book and a manuscript. Anyway, let's go back to the summer of 2022, this beautiful hot summer in the middle of lockdown. The boys were about 10, nine and 10 maybe. James and I were both working from home. My business, Heal Yourself Happy, was growing shoots, shall we say it was beautiful. I was loving it. I was really, really enjoying it. I was happy. I was loving the work that I was doing. I was loving the people I was locked in with. And I was really on this beautiful path of loving myself, because I could look in the mirror and say, do you know what? I love what you're doing right now. I love what you stand for. I love the life that you're creating. I was living my own definition of success. Remember, I always talk about loving what you do, loving who you do it with, and loving yourself in the process. And I was looking around and thinking, gosh, I'm so happy. I'm so happy. And at the same time, I was thinking, my goodness, there are so many unhappy people in the world. How did I get here? Because I also remembered a time that, you know, being happy was something that I thought was going to be an impossibility. I never thought I would ever be happy again. A dream I never thought I would ever experience. In 2016, I was at that real rock bottom that you've probably heard me talk about if you've been listening to the podcast for a long time. I'd just been diagnosed with ptsd, clinical depression, eating disorders and insomnia. It was in a very, very dark place. And I just saying to myself, I just want to be happy. I just want to be happy. My journey with manifestation and all things spiritual really started the year before. And it's probably no surprise, really. I look back now and it was, well, because of this, then that, and because of that, then this in 20. Sometime in 2014, 2015. I can't remember exactly the date, but I know I'd been moving out of my corporate role and employment in 2014. My last final big job was in 2014 when I left, left Asda and I started freelancing. And at the time, I'd also set up a business on the side, a wellbeing business. It was a network marketing business. And they often described it as a network marketing business wrapped up in personal development. And personal development was not, not really anything that I'd ever come across before. I'd been very, very corporate. I've been on a very corporate path. I'd been on leadership paths. It was never really about personal development outside of leadership. And how could in the workplace. So when a really old friend of mine and actually a previous work colleague handed me the book the Secret by Rhonda Byrne, I wonder if you've read it. I just put it on my bedside table for a very, very long time. And I didn't actually read it. I was at a point where I was experiencing probably the first of my Ds, the dead end job, the dead end in my career. I was no longer enjoying freelancing. I couldn't freelance because freelancing meant that I had to be away from home. But James was living away from home, so I couldn't do that. And I'd never had a business before when it came to running my own. So I was learning so much when it came to running a health and wellness business. But eventually I actually did pick up the Secret and I started to read it. And I could not put it down. And it unlocked a whole new world. It was like I'd opened the door to an emporium that I'd never been in before. And as an avid reader and as an avid learner, suddenly all my fiction books got pushed aside. And I started with this insatiable thirst for knowledge, to want to know more about the spiritual world, about energy, about manifestation, about everything that was really talked about in the Secret. It really was a wonderful place to start. And I just started reading more and more, inhaling this information. I continued. Rhonda Byrne. I read the Hero. I read the Magic. I read the Power. I loved all of those books. I followed my curiosity into the world of Gabby Bernstein and Miracles May Happen. I read books by John C. Maxwell, you know, the five levels of leadership and failing Forward. I read Jen Sincero's book How to Be a Badass. I read the Tools by Phil Stultz. I'm just remembering these as some of my favorites in those early days, you know, I Love Me by David Hamilton. One of my favorite, favorite books of all times. That is literally dogged and turned over. And oh, Red. Rebecca Campbell, Light is a New Black. Yes, that's right. Light is a New Black. I loved her. But Wayne Dyer, Gosh, Anything by Wayne Dyer, anything I could listen to on YouTube, any of his books, any of his writings, any of his readings. Thrive by Ariana Huffington. I remember reading on on the beach in Mauritius, one of the other earlier ones I listened to or read it actually. Sorry was Playing Big by Tara Moore. It was actually one of her first meditations I ever did to meet my future self. That on a train to London once, Esther Hicks. I literally just followed my curiosity. And you know what? It set me in really good stead. Because all of this knowledge and all of this understanding enabled me to have a better appreciation of the spiritual world. So that when the second of my Ds, my disastrous Ds happened. And when my mum started dying pretty much every day with Alzheimer's, when it got worse and worse until ultimately her death in early 2016 by pneumonia, I was able to. I was able to cope, I think is the word I would use. I was able to cope because I had all of this knowledge that everything was happening for me, it wasn't happening to me, it was all, all happening for me. And I could understand that my mum was a spirit and that was hugely comforting for me. I could listen to the signs and understand more about death and I was beginning to understand more about how I could pave my way forward in my dead end career. At the time, I didn't know that six months later that the third D was going to come crashing through my world like a ton of bricks, that the divorce, the betrayal, the devastation of my personal life, you know, with one big blow. But actually having read all of these books, it did teach me dignity and I knew how I was going to respond rather than react to a lot of these situations. I chose not to use any kind of medication. I tried. What did I try? But the doctor, I think he gave me Valium at one point because I was really seriously not coping at one point. But I tried one of those and it just didn't work for me. So I chose meditation as my medication and that really helped me through that fourth D that I was diagnosed with depression. And in those moments of meditation that I did every day, in every single day of that darkness of that 12 months, every day, I allowed myself to tune into the energy of happiness. Because I just sat there thinking, I will never be happy again. You know, I don't know what I'm going to do for a career. My marriage is over, my health is in tatters, my mum is dead, my dad is seeing another woman already. I was in utter darkness. And I didn't know how to reach for the light to find that happiness. So I lay down every day on my bed in meditation and I allowed myself to tune into the frequency of happiness. Because I decided that I didn't need a reason or a circumstance or a situation to be or feel happiness. I just chose to feel it. And I aligned to the frequency, the vibration of that feeling, that emotion within me. I'd been happy before, so I knew what it felt like. So I allowed myself to cultivate it. Even if my outside world didn't match it. I allowed myself to sit in that energy, to sit in that frequency. And as I did so, pictures started to form in my Mind, words. I sensed things. And my soul, I believe it was my soul now, or my spirit, whatever you decide to call it, or me. The inner me showed me a path forward. And I do remember so vividly that every day, when I would say, I'm going to choose to be happy, I'm going to sit in the. In the feeling of being happy, I remember there was this giant circle, like fiery circle in front of me. And through this visualization, I could see through almost like this portal, this fiery portal of me happy in a beautiful garden. And it was almost like this meditation was an invitation for me to step through that portal, through that fiery portal into that existence. And that's where I felt happy. And every day I would do this. And I would often be in this beautiful garden. Green. I just remember it being so green. And sometimes I was just lying on the grass, looking at the beautiful blue skies above and counting the birds and the. Listening to the hum of nature and watching the fluffy clouds. Sometimes I was dancing, sometimes I was with friends, sometimes I was with the boys. But it was always a very, very happy place. When I walked through this portal into this garden and I had this deep sense of happiness, which felt in my body very much like peace and contentment. It felt very much like a tinge of excitement. I was excited for something, something that was coming. I had this anticipation of all good things are about to happen. You know, I felt the bees, the. The bees that I now call them. I felt beautiful. I was dancing, a floaty white dress. I felt beautiful. I felt blissful. Everything felt so blissfully beautiful and perfect in my life. And I felt like I was living a life of bounty. That abundance of beauty, all of it. It just felt like peace and abundance all at the same time, but yet it was an illusion. It was a dream. It was all in my imagination, but yet in my body, it felt like it was reality. It felt like it was done. And when my timer would go off or when something brought me out of my meditation and I had to go back to real life, I would live in that energy and frequency in my body, and it would carry me forward. I did that every day. And In January of 2017, James gave me a call. We were separated at the time. And he said, I've seen this big old house. It's a relic of a house that needs an awful lot of work. I would really like you to come and have a look at it. He said, my biggest dream and my biggest wish is that we live together in it, that you can find Your way to forgive me and that we can find a way to be together. But I would love for you to come and have a look, because if you don't want to live with me, then I would really like to invest our money in it and do it up and sell it on and use the money for our future of the boys. So I said, okay. And I went to this house. And houses have beautiful energies, don't they? Or they have not such beautiful energy. Well, this house had a beautiful energy in it. And I walked through the door, and I immediately felt peace. And I thought, yes, it needs a lot of work, but this could be a beautifully happy home. I was still skeptical. And then the gentleman who owned the home, he said, ali, would you like to see the garden? And I said, yes, I'd love to see the garden. Do show me the way. And he took me through this huge archway, this big yew, old yew, trees and an archway, and down some stone steps that were really beautifully rustic and an old iron handle rail. As I went down these steps and as I went through, I couldn't believe it. Makes me emotional still thinking about it. That feeling I felt, and I just felt took my breath away because I was there. It was my garden. I'd literally walked through the portal, and there it was in reality. And it was at that moment. And in that day and in the days afterwards, I chose to forgive. I chose love. I chose to be happy in my reality rather than just an illusion. It was a decision I made to say yes to healing. It was a yes to align with love, to let go. And in aligning with love, I found joy and I found happiness in my reality. So that fast forward four years, when I wrote the manifest IT program, I was sitting there thinking, how? How did I do it? Or so many people asked me, how did you? Because they'd been following my journey. They were like, how. How did you go from that rock bottom, all of those Ds, from the dead end in your career, from death and loss and grief, from near divorce and separation and heartbreak and bet, from depression and PTSD and all of the mental health issues that you faced, and also the body dysmorphia. They were like, ali, how? How? How did you do it? And I thought, I don't know. I don't know how I did it. And then when I sat down, I realized I did it. Was this everything that I've just explained to you? And so I decided I would write the how. And I sat every day for four days in this Beautiful heat under this giant redwood tree in this beautiful, beautiful garden that I'd visualized that was once an illusion that was now my reality. And I started to write. And it wasn't a book that I wrote from my mind. It was a book that I wrote from my soul. It was the writing down of this mindfulness practice that I had been doing daily. It was my soul illuminating a dream that was going to be my reality and allowing me to sense it and know it, that it was. That it was done. And I recognized that through this meditation, there were four beautiful stages. There were four beautiful stages of my being that had to come into vibrational harmony, that they all had to be singing the same tune aligned to that vision that I could see. It was my four beings. It was my spiritual being, my emotional being, my cerebral being, my physical being. It was the who I was as a soul, the spiritual, the emotional, the feelings and the energy. It was the cerebral. It was my mind and my thoughts, and it was the physical, the actions and the behaviors that I was able to harness. When I got all parts of me through this visualization, this meditation, this illumination really, that I call it, and as I started to decipher it and really witness it, I let my soul write out the teachings of each of those four parts. And it became the program, the four teachings, the four lessons, the codes, the stories of how I was able to bring myself into that vibrational harmony, to literally walk through that portal. Not just in my mind, but also in my reality. I was manifesting my inner truth. My soul showed me what my inner truth was, to be happy. And I didn't need anything or anyone to be or do that, to feel it, but yet I could walk through and actually create it in my life. And when I look back now, four years ago, it was the start of what I now call the Rose Compass. The head, the heart, the soul, the self. These teachings, this was the start of it. It was the start of the book. It was the depth of the teachings of the Rose Compassion that I summarize when I talk about the Rose Compass now. But this was it. And when I look at the summary of the pages that I have in front of me that I haven't really looked at in the last three years because I wrote this three years ago. Yes, 20. What did I say? 22. So it's now 25. So three years ago, I look at the summary at the back of the book, and it says, listen to your soul. Follow your heart. Hear yourself, think, Move in the energy of feeling. Good of desire, love, joy in the direction of your soul's truth, because you will create it and it will manifest as if by magic. Now, I wrote that years ago. Two years after that, I started to look at the science behind manifestation because I was like, okay, now I know how. And I've talked about how I've done it and how I've created it with this very spiritual, energetic, vibrational harmony frequency. But how does it actually work? Because there's part of my brain that likes to know a little bit more about the depth of how it actually works in a scientific way. How can I explain that to my sister who's so scientific and not spiritual at all? And so I started to look at that, and that's when I wrote my next program. So if this was book one program, one manifest it, the program that I wrote in 2023, the next one is Manifesting as if by Magic. Because what I learned when it. When I learned about the science behind, really did start to. To speed up the manifestations as if by magic. So my second program, which I didn't. I'd forgotten I'd written that in my book, is called Manifesting as if by Magic, because I understand the science behind it all. So this podcast really was just an introduction to Manifest It. The. The manuscript in my hand that became the most amazing program. It was my highest selling program of that era of Heal Yourself Happy and. And also I think it was in the Limitless CEO. I can't remember which stage I was in, but it became the highest selling program of all time. So if that's something you want to dive a little bit deeper into, it's still available now. You can buy it through my website. I'll drop a link in the show notes. It's called Manifest it and it's £111. And you get all of that, all the teachings and all the codes, and what I will do as a gift for anyone who's listening to this podcast, you can have the Illuminated visualization. The illumination. I recorded that manifestation, that visualization for myself, and I recorded it for so many of my clients as I was talking to them one to one, and then used it as part of the Manifest it program. I'll give that for you for free. So that's in the show notes. But if you want to go into more of the depth and the understanding of each of those teachings and how you can bring the four beings into vibrational harmony so that you can manifest as if by magic, then I'll put that in the show notes. But manifesting has brought me so much joy and I can talk about it so much. And in fact, I will talk about it more in my next episode. In the next episode, I'm going to dive a little bit deeper into the science behind it. So if you're a cynic like I once was, I want to talk to you about the science and how you could really start to to believe in it just as much as I now do and how so many people do. So that will be launching next week, so that'll be dropping next week. But in the meantime, enjoy this. Enjoy the illuminate it visualization. Come and find me. Come and tell me what you see through your fiery portal. What is your soul trying to tell you? I can't wait to hear from you. And I shall look forward to speaking to you again. So much more about the the magic of manifestation. Because you understand the science. Because the science is the magic. I think I'll see you next week. Lots of Love. My mission is to spread love, joy, peace, and abundance to as much of the world as I possibly can so that every person knows that they don't have to walk alone in their darkness. So if you've enjoyed today's podcast and this episode, I'll be so honored and happy if you would support my mission and share this with your network, your friends, and your family. Please feel free to leave me an honest review on Apple or Spotify. And until next time, remember, the ripple of joy starts with you.
