Law of Attraction & the Role of Meditation Meditation is an important ingredient in actively using the Law of Attraction in your life to achieve your goals. While many Law of Attraction books and films focus on the importance of visualizing, saying affirmations, and making vision boards, often meditation is over-looked. However, meditation is extremely transformative and powerful. In the book Conversations With God, it says, "If you don't go within, you go without." This is so true, especially when considering the Law of Attraction. As you probably know, the Law of Attraction simply means that the Universe brings you more of what you already are and have.

Often these episodes are minimized in the minds of others but for anyone who has experienced anxiety or panic, what you have experienced is not only REAL but very scary during the time it is occurring. Such occasions can find you feeling in control at one moment and overwhelmed at the next. Breathing can become difficult as the panic or anxiety escalates. Rapid heart palpitations may commence with a sensation that your heart is about to leap out of your chest. You may experience shaking and trembling. Your skin can grow clammy as the body's chemistry reacts to the shock by sending a surge of cortisol and adrenalin through your system. What follows can be mild to significant exhaustion leading to a need for sleep whilst at other times your body and mind may become so restless that it is difficult to relax at all. There can be accompanying feelings of lightheadedness, vagueness, even confusion, and with each episode, there is a fear of the next attack.
