Aaron Doughty's Morning Meditation For Manifestation & Raising Vibration (Step-By-Step)

This video, I'm going to show you my personal meditation that I use every single day that has allowed me to live a life of abundance, manifest my dreams, and also raise my vibration to another level. I'm going to show you exactly what to do step by step in this video. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'm going to be taking you with me and showing you step by step the exact meditation that I I use in order to manifest the dream, my dreams, or reality I live in right now, and also to raise my vibration. And I'm going to show you how you can apply this every single day in your life. This has changed my life the most over the last few years. Uh, I'd say I started daily meditating back in 2012 and the meditation that I do is the same exact meditation that I did back in 2012 is still the one that I do today. And using certain principles, using certain things, it's changed everything. And what I'm going to do is share with you what those are so that you don't, you know, maybe you're meditating right now and you feel like there's a lot of resistance coming up. You're trying to control the mind, which actually isn't what you want to do. And I'm going to show you the dynamics to this because if you apply this, this can change your whole energy field and this is what can attract amazing things into your life because remember, something that you do every day begins to compound over time. That is something that I realized. So just to give you a little bit of a basis, well, before I learned meditation, I had ADHD and it was very hard for me to focus. So if you have a hard time focusing, know that so did I. I couldn't focus for a certain period of time. I felt like my mind was all over the place. I felt like there was something wrong with me because people would always say how much energy that I had and how I was ungrounded. And what happened is, is I was eventually taking Adderall, which is the prescription drug they give for it, and there were harsh side effects. So then I went and learned about meditation and I typed it in online of, of cures for ADHD. And what I came across was a little bit of research on meditation. I was like, whoa, this is black and white science. Meditation is powerful. If you meditate, you will feel more calm. If you meditate, you will reduce your cortisol levels, which are your stress levels. And all of this stuff was like black and white to me. So okay, I'm going to try this. So I started doing it and within the third or fourth time I simply decided that this is going to change my life. I remember the first two days of meditating, I sat down for like two or three minutes and I observed my thoughts. I was like, okay, this, what is this? You know, I remember I was trying to, I was trying to not observe my thoughts, control my thoughts. I was like, don't think negative thoughts. And also shortly after I learned about the law of attraction, so I was like, I don't want to manifest anything bad, which made it even worse because then there was more of an importance there. And what I did is I was trying to control and I felt resistance like this doesn't work. I was like, you know what, I'm going to stay with it. Second or third day in is when something happened. What I did is instead of trying to control my thoughts, I learned how to observe them from a neutral place, not try to change them at all. And when I did that and I brought a candle flame into the equation, and the reason for a candle flame is I'll show you, I'm actually going to take you into my sacred space and I'm going to show you exactly what I personally do and you can kind of follow along the three stages that I use. So for it though, what I realized I had to do is I had to stare at a candle flame. I didn't have to, but I chose to stare at a candle flame because when your eyes are focused on one spot, your mind doesn't wander as much. When your eyes are always stimulated and you're looking around— my eyes that wanders, a mind that wanders. I actually learned that and I heard that at Bikram yoga class years later. I was like, that makes so much sense. That's why I'm staring at one candle flame, you know? One candle flame keeps the eyes on one spot and then you just observe your thoughts. You observe your thoughts, you observe your thoughts. What this will help you to do is this will help you to where when something happens in your day, say someone at your work says something mean to you, say something happens that appears to be bad, you're going to be able to observe it rather than react to it. You see, most people are just simply in the autopilot mind. They're going around reacting to their environment, reacting to their environment, reacting to their environment, and therefore they're in the same perpetual loop. What meditation allows you to do is meditation allows you to become aware of your story, become aware of the beliefs you have, become aware and observe rather than react. And then what you can begin to do is to literally download and program an intention into your energy field. You can program an emotion, and by doing this, you'll find that you then begin to attract things in your life easier than ever. And remember, if you commit to doing a meditation for 30 days in a row, it will change your life because you begin to compound it. Some people try meditation one time, they go, well, that didn't do much, and then they don't get results from it. But if you stay consistent, I promise you it will transform your life, and anybody that meditates will tell you that it will. So I encourage you to really commit to meditating every morning, especially right when you wake up, because the thing is, right when you wake up— like, so far today I have not checked my phone, and that's because when you start stimulating your mind, it's then harder for you to observe your thoughts because now you have things that have started to bombard it. So right when you wake up for the first 10 to 15 minutes, I highly recommend doing the meditation I'm going to share with you right now. And it's something simple. And the more you do it, the easier it gets. And the more you do it, the more you feel like you enjoy it. It's a part of you. So first off, there's 3 main states of my meditation that I do. And what I'm going to do is, uh, I'm also going to be releasing— what I'll probably do is have it below. A new morning routine, or not a morning routine, a new morning meditation video, which is a meditation that you can listen to every single morning. And I encourage you to listen to over 30 days straight so that you start to wire in this part of your day. If you can as well, I recommend trying to do it at the same time every day if you can. So it's like get up every day at 7 or 8, you go straight into meditation every day at the same time. It begins to— has something to do with the biorhythms and it compounds. It's something about it. You don't have to. Sometimes I don't do that because I travel or stuff like that, but we'll say over time it does help a little bit. So there's, there's 3 main levels to this meditation. The first one is observe, not control the mind, observe the mind. When you observe the mind, you're able to in a way shift to a neutral gear to where the mind isn't racing. You're not trying to control it. And when you observe, it's this, it's the center point.

It's this.

It's this level of, uh, of power where you're not in reaction and where you can then choose things from a level of awareness. So observing your thoughts, even right now, we'll do this in a minute, but observe the next thought that comes into your mind. Don't try to control it.

Observe it.

You see, there's the thinker that thinks thoughts. Then there's a level of awareness where you can observe the thinker, and then that's where we begin to really expand our awareness. So what you'll see right here, is you have that of observation. Observe. Now don't control. I recommend doing this for 5 to 10 minutes, and I'm going to show you how I do that with the candle here in a minute. This is the first step. This is what allows you to clean the slate. This is allows you as well to get into your heart center. Normally what I'll do is I'll start putting the awareness inside of my body and you just be aware of anything that comes up. Thoughts could come up. You could feel emotions bubble up. You could feel anger bubble up, whatever it is, allow it to be there. Don't control it. You're just giving yourself the space and you do that for 5 or 10 minutes. Now you can do this for way longer as well. I'm just doing, I'm making this video and this meditation something that's practical for people. Now the second step to this is gratitude. Gratitude. Now why gratitude? Now when it comes to manifestation in general, because this, what I'm sharing with you will help you raise your vibration and manifest your dreams. And if you do it for 30 days, it's going to be insanely powerful. But what you do is the second step is you get to a place of gratitude. Now for this, you think this is for about 3 minutes, this is 5 or 10 minutes gratitude. You feel inside of your heart and you think of 3 things you're grateful for. Think of 3 things in 3 minutes, 3 things you're grateful for. Could be a family member, could be your dog. It could be you getting to wake up in the morning and you can eat whatever, you know, healthy food that you want or whatever it is. Focus.

I do intermittent fasting personally, but what you could do is gratitude, 3 minutes.

And what this does is this puts you in your heart so that then you are combining your heart with your head. Because the third state— you want to go to the heart first. When you're born, your heart— when you're, when you're starting to develop inside your mom's womb, the heart is the first thing that develops. In the same way, in meditation, gratitude for 3 minutes is extraordinarily powerful. It also will help you to get out of your head and into your heart and into your body. But then the third step is that I use is also about 2 to 5 minutes. It's visualize/intend. I visualize how I want my day to go. I visualize how I wanna be for the day. And that visualization, you visualize it as if it's through your own eyes, not as if you're watching yourself in a movie, as if you're looking through it and you visualize what you want your day to be and you intend for it. You say, I intend to have an amazing day. I intend to connect to people. Deep level. And what this does is this merges your heart with your head for manifestation. It is so powerful. It's what Dr. Joe Dispenza talks about as well. He talks a lot about that. It's an increased intention, which is something that you can set using your mind, plus an elevated emotion, which is that gratitude in the heart. So this is the 3-phase meditation I do every morning. This can take literally 10 or 15 minutes and it has changed my life.

Whole life.

Everything about me has changed since learning meditation, and this is the same meditation that I've been doing for years now. I thought I would do now is I would take you with me and I would show you some of the insider, like the insider knowledge of what I use when I do meditation. And then below you'll see the meditation that you can listen to every single day for 30 days. Let's start a 30-day challenge where for 30 days you meditate every single morning. And what you can do is, um, you can do that. You tag me on Instagram if you want as you're doing it, but let's make this something where people, you know, that when you share it as well, it's going to be sharing the power of meditation with other people. So this is something that I recommend. Now I'm going to show you my sacred space. This is something that I have not shared really at all, I think. Um, and it's, uh, so in, in my house, what I do is I have a separate space. Now I know not everyone can do this. I have a separate space for that. Of my meditation room and my meditation room. Let me show you. This is my meditation room right here.

This is one of my rooms.

This right here is, uh, that's my treadmill desk. This is like a real chill room. But then what I do is I have this little thing right over here, this little closet. It's kind of small, but it's a good size for what it is. Now this right here is my sacred space. Every time I come into this room, the only thing I do is meditate. So there's a high vibration that has been in this room and the only time I'm in this room, it's like it primes me for that of meditation. So what you can do in your house is you could set up a sacred space. This doesn't have to mean you have to have your own room. It just means like maybe even like imagine next to your bed, right?

This is my room right here, the master bedroom.

Now these are crystals. I set a grid around my room, but what you could do is you could have a little candle on this side of your nightstand or something and you can meditate right here. It doesn't have to be, but the idea is like I had a little pillow right here. That's what I used to do. Uh, I'd have a pillow right there and what I would do is I would then have the candle flame right there and I would meditate just like that. So you don't need to have your own room. However, what I will say is, uh, for me that just, this just works for me. So this is what I do. I have this room right here. This is my sacred space. This is the only thing I'd really do here is meditate and it's about 15 minutes in the morning, 15 minutes at night. Now let me show you a little bit about what I do. So first off, this is what my view will look like. I will sit right here, and when I'm sitting here, I will then be staring right there, right about eye level. And what this does is this focus on this spot right here, and even if it sways a little bit, I don't try to control it. I just allow it.

And the eyes focused on one spot, you'll notice even if you keep your eyes focused on this one spot right now, Your mind begins to stop wandering so much. You notice that now it's easier for you to observe your thoughts. Any thought that comes into your mind, you know it's okay. It can be there. You just observe it as if you were at a park bench at a park, just watching the birds, watching a dog walk by, watching the people, the families, watching any animals. You just observe. You don't control. So you see, this is what I do in my meditation. Now, here's something else I do. I like crystals.

This is not necessary at all. I like what they represent.

To me, they represent connectedness because of the crystalline structure of it.

So what I normally do is—

this is rose quartz, this is lapis, this is citrine, that's also rose. What I do is I put them normally around, around this, around this right here.

This is not necessary at all.

This is just what I do.

This is like my habits. You know, something like this can prime you, prime you for, you know, what you're doing, or like the intention behind what you do is very powerful. So let me turn this around and I'll show you a little bit about what I do for meditation in general.

So here is the, the main thing that you want to focus on when you're meditating.

So remember, the first 5 or 10 minutes is observing your thoughts.

The thing is, is when your eyes wander, your mind wanders. But if you just focus on one spot like this, even for just a couple minutes, you'll notice that the more you do it, the more your brain begins to calm down, the more you can put the awareness inside of your your body. And that's— I'll put my awareness in my hands and my feet. You just become aware of your body. And what you can do as well is you can become aware of your energy in general. Where does it feel tight? Where does it need to loosen up a little bit? And if you need to loosen up, you just imagine it loosening up a little bit. And the key to this really is allowing. Allow your thoughts to be there. Allow anything to come up to come up. If I think, well, what is my video going to be about today? What is— am I gonna be able to like share this, this? Am I going to bring the video to my sacred space?

You see these thoughts come up in meditation.

I just feel like observing, observing, observe them. They're neutral. They're not bad. They're not good. They just are. And you just keep guiding your focus. Anytime your eyes start to wander around, tell me, look at like a lighter over here or something. No, I just bring it back to my breath. And the thing— another very powerful hack for this is bring it back to your breath. So take a deep breath in right now. Let's do this together. Breathe it out. Feel your body relax more and more. Now what you can begin to do is just stare at this candle flame. And at the same time, you just take in some deep breaths. Don't try to control your breathing. Like, instead, just have your exhales be a little bit longer and relax. And imagine with every breath you take, you feel yourself become more and more relaxed, more and more able to just observe your thoughts. And what happens is that then this will leak into the rest of your day. 'Cause if something happens, guess what? You're going to be able to observe it instead of react to it. You can put your awareness when you do this on background noises. Sometimes what I'll do is listen to the AC unit in the distant background, any cars driving by, any planes above. I can hear these background noises and I just observe them. The thought comes up like, why do I live so close to the airport? Or why is that person driving so loud? Or just observe it. You see, this is where the power is, the observation, because then you can observe every area of your life. Now I do this for about 5 or 10 minutes, then I move into gratitude and I think of something I'm grateful for. So right now, think of one thing that you're grateful for. For me, I I'm grateful for my family, the amazing relationships that I have in my life, the ability to do what I absolutely love. What are you grateful for?

Think of a couple things that bring you into your heart.

Maybe your dog, your cat if you have one, certain family member that really sticks out at you right now that you feel great gratitude for. Maybe grateful for a recent lesson that you had, something you learned that made you more powerful. Now focus on that gratitude and focus on your heart center. Literally focus on your heart center. You can put your hands over your heart if you want and do that for a couple minutes. And when you do that, you've been bringing the awareness in your heart. And then after 2 or 3 minutes of that, you just intuitively feel guided to as well. You'll just know when it's like, okay, I'm inside my heart center. Then you move to the third stage, which is— the third stage is visualization and intention. So visualize what you want to experience in your day. I can visualize me going to the gym right now, having a great workout, enjoying myself, having fun, but also being focused and feeling purposeful. I can visualize myself making making amazing videos and add value to people. Visualize myself interacting with other people and being compassionate and really connecting at a heart level and understanding them in a new way. And now when I visualize this, I'm not visualizing it as if I'm watching a movie. I visualize it as if I am looking through my own eyes, going over to the weights, enjoying myself, looking in the mirror, smiling, making a video as if I'm looking at my, my camera with my ring light around it. I'm going to write an email that helps people. You see, I'm looking through my own eyes. And then what I'll do is I'll set an intention. After 2 to 5 minutes, I set an intention. I intend for my day to be fun, to be light, for me to connect to other people. I intend to have a great productive day, to go to bed feeling productive. I intend to film a podcast episode today. You see, these are all different intentions. They can be more energetic, they can be more intentional and detailed. It's all up to you. And this meditation right here, saying gratitude, realize that you're a divine being— that gratitude right there is very powerful as well. And what you can then do is go about your day knowing that you have just primed yourself in a very powerful way. From this point going forward, you will notice that your life becomes so much more easy. You may— some things may get brought up, but you're gonna be able to deal with them. You'll do more spiritual growth, you will, when you start doing a daily meditation than you have in many, many years of your life. If you take down the principles of it as well, the observe, gratitude, intention, visualization, your life will have much more focus. So what I'm gonna do right now is link below a morning meditation that is going to help you.

You listen to every single day that does this exact process.

Now you know the principles, you know the philosophy of it. You can apply this. It's a simple 15-minute meditation every single morning.
