As you may know, manifestation is the ability to create your reality using the power of your thoughts, feelings, and emotions. In this article we are going to show you how to start a manifestation journal, why it’s works so well for manifesting, and some powerful manifesting techniques you can use inside your journal. We hope this helps you become the manifesting queen you were born to be.
What is a manifestation journal?
A manifestation journal is notebook that is used for the sole purpose of manifesting your hopes, dreams, and goals into your reality. Its different from a traditional journal because it teaches you how focus your attention on positive thoughts and ideas related to your desires and ultimately helps you intentionally create your day to day reality.
How a manifestation journal works?
When you use a manifestation journal, you’re working with the law of attraction to manipulate energy and begin attracting your desires straight to you. Writing inside your journal helps you focus your energy on what you want, puts you in a positive mood, and helps you get into vibrational alignment with your manifestations. This helps you become an energetic match to what you want and attracts it right to you.

What do you write in a manifestation journal?
There are many different ways you can use a manifestation journal. What should be included in your journal is dependent on what manifestation journal techniques you like best. But basically, you’ll want to include everything you’d like to have in your reality.
We recommend you dream big inside your journal, including everything your heart desires. Your journal is your private space to get clarity on what you want and be intentional about the life you want to create. Be sure to include manifestations for all parts of your life including career, relationships, finances, wellness, etc.

Gratitude List
This manifesting technique is simply about writing a list of what you are grateful for. Gratitude is like gold when it comes to manifesting. It has the power to instantly raise your vibration and can help you shift your focus to all the good things you already have in your life.
The more gratitude you give for what you have, the more you receive in return, making you an instant match for what you desire.
We recommend writing a daily list of 10-20 things and/or experiences you are grateful for every morning or night before bed.
Intention Setting
Intention setting is similar to setting goals but on a deeper level. When you set intentions for what you want in your life, you don’t just write down your desires and see if they show up for you, with intention setting you also do the inner work to make it happen.
We’ve created a 5 step process we like to use when we set intentions with our Girl Unfinished team.

Scripting
Scripting is our favorite manifestation journal example which is why we saved the best for last! Scripting is a journaling process where you write about what you want as if its already yours. As you are writing about your manifestation in the past tense you are also invoking all the happy feelings and joyful emotions that it brings up for you. This is very important in the manifestation process!
We love scripting because it also allows you to get very specific and detailed about what you want to call into your life which helps the universe provide it for you even faster! Here’s some of our favorite scripting journal prompts for you to get started:
- What did I manifest today?
- What did my manifestation look like? Color? Size? Monetary Value?
- How did it feel when I received my manifestation?
- Now that I have received my manifestation, I am going to…
- I am so grateful for this manifestation because…
