Manifesting Your Dreams as a Busy Mom: 5 Life-Changing Tips
Being a mom is a full-time job, but what if you could also manifest your dream life? It might sound like a tall order, but Francesca Amber, a bestselling author and single mom of three, is living proof that it's possible. She's not just surviving; she's thriving, and she's here to share her secrets.
Francesca, the author of 'Manifest Like a Mother,' sat down with us after her successful UK book tour (yes, she manifested that too!) to reveal how busy moms can attract their dream lives. And it's all about weaving manifestation into the everyday fabric of family life.
1. Chores as Mindfulness:
Forget the stereotype of meditation requiring complete silence and solitude. Francesca reveals a revolutionary approach: household chores can be a form of meditation! She recalls feeling frustrated by the idea of self-care and meditation, thinking it was an impossible luxury for busy moms. But then, a game-changer:
"I discovered that if a task requires more physical effort than mental effort and is done mindfully, it's considered meditation. So, I can meditate while doing the dishes, folding laundry, or loading the dishwasher!"

By reframing chores as "cognitive rest," you create moments for clarity and creativity. The key? Put away distractions like your phone and immerse yourself in the task. You'll be surprised by the ideas that flow when you give your mind this space.
2. Declutter with Purpose:
Clutter isn't just an eyesore; it's an energy drain. Francesca shares her experience before her book tour: she decluttered her house, not just for tidiness but with a purpose. She envisioned her future success as a bestselling author and created the physical space to match.
"Clutter raises your cortisol levels and lowers your vibrations. A tidy home gives you the mental clarity to focus on your goals. When your surroundings are organized, you can ask yourself, 'What do I want to achieve today?'"
3. Care for Your Future Self:
Francesca believes in the power of manifesting by caring for your future self. She suggests envisioning the person you want to become and taking action in the present to support that future.
"Every Sunday, I plan my week to make future me's life easier. It's an act of self-love. Whether it's small gestures like leaving painkillers by your bed or bigger investments for future opportunities, it's a gift to your future self."
4. Dress for Success:
Your wardrobe can be a powerful tool for manifestation. Francesca encourages dressing for the life you want, not just on special occasions but in your daily life. It's about embodying your future self and sending a message to the universe.
"You don't need a full face of makeup every day, but when you dress for your dreams, you're telling the universe this is happening now, not someday. It's a powerful statement."
5. Visualize Emotions, Not Logistics:
When overwhelmed by the 'how' of your dreams, Francesca advises focusing on the desired emotions. Visualize scenes that evoke the feelings you want, like your child's birthday or a cozy Christmas morning. Let the universe handle the details.
"You don't need hours of free time to manifest. It's about finding small moments and using them intentionally. By tuning into your desired emotions, you invite the universe to work out the logistics."
And there you have it—five powerful tips from a mom who's living her dream life.

Are these tips life-changing or just common sense? Let's discuss!
