You Can Call Things In — But Can You Actually Receive Them?

Receiving isn’t about manifestation.

It’s about embodiment.

This is a question a lot of people don’t realize they’re avoiding — until the thing they asked for actually shows up.

Why is receiving harder than manifesting?

Because calling things in happens in the mind.

Receiving happens in the body.

You can visualize, journal, affirm, and “do the work” all day long — but the moment what you asked for actually arrives, your nervous system gets the final vote.

And for a lot of people, that’s where things go sideways.

You don’t fail when something lands.

Your nervous system activates.

Why does being seen suddenly feel unsafe when I wanted it?

This is one of the biggest blind spots I see.

People say they want to be seen.

They heal the wounds around not being seen as a child.

They start putting themselves out there — business, content, relationships.

And then… something happens.

A post goes viral.

Comments come in.

Feedback shows up.

And suddenly the body says, “Fuck this.”

Not because it’s bad — but because being seen was never neutral in the past.

Being seen meant judgment.

Being seen meant misinterpretation.

Being seen meant not being held.

So now, even when visibility is aligned, the nervous system doesn’t know that yet.

Why do comments and feedback affect me so much?

Because feedback hits old wiring.

Even “good” feedback can destabilize you if your system learned to orient outward for safety.

You start scanning:

• Do they like me?

• Did I do it right?

• Am I being seen the way I want to be seen?

And the moment validation becomes the anchor, embodiment disappears.

That’s when you’re seen outside → in, instead of inside → out.

What does embodiment actually mean in real life?

Embodiment is not confidence.

Embodiment is:

• Showing up even when no one claps

• Staying grounded when people project

• Letting feedback pass through instead of define you

It’s doing the thing because it lights your heart up.

Because you feel purpose.

Because there’s passion in your body.

Not because someone told you, “Oh my gosh, I love your stuff. Keep going.”

You keep going because it’s true for you.

That’s embodiment.

How do I respond to criticism or projection without shutting down?

You don’t harden.

You don’t bypass.

You don’t spiral.

You anchor.

When something comes in — a comment, an opinion, a reaction — you meet it from your truth.

Sometimes that looks like compassion.

Sometimes it looks like neutrality.

Sometimes it looks like not engaging at all.

But what you’re not doing is abandoning yourself to stay safe.

That’s the cycle breaking.

Why do I lose momentum right when things start working?

This is a big one.

You call something in.

You build energy.

You show up consistently.

And then when it actually starts landing — opportunities, clients, attention — you suddenly:

• Pull back

• Change directions

• Drop the project

• Lose steam

Not because you don’t want it.

Because your nervous system has never lived there before.

Receiving requires integration, not more effort.

What does compassion have to do with receiving?

Everything.

When what you’ve been calling in lands, the ground can feel like it’s shaking. Not because you’re unworthy — but because your system is adjusting to a new baseline.

This is where people get hard on themselves.

Instead, receiving asks for compassion.

Compassion says:

• “Of course this feels intense.”

• “Of course my body needs time.”

• “Of course I’m learning how to hold this.”

That softness is what allows things to stay.

How does nervous system work change receiving?

It slows it down enough to land.

Receiving isn’t about being “ready.”

It’s about being present when something arrives instead of blowing past it or running from it.

When the nervous system feels supported:

• You don’t sabotage momentum

• You don’t outsource your worth

• You don’t collapse when seen

What can you do to support yourself?

Through Akashic Enlightenment or other services, I work with clients at the level where these patterns actually live — the subconscious and the nervous system.

We look at:

• Where receiving shuts down

• Where being seen still feels unsafe

• Where validation replaced embodiment

• Where expansion activates old survival responses

This isn’t about fixing you.

It’s about helping your body catch up to what your soul already knows you deserve.

What’s the real takeaway about receiving?

You don’t receive more by proving you’re worthy.

You receive more by letting it land.

Embodiment is the moment you stop asking the outside world who you are — and start anchoring it inside your body.

That’s when what you call in can actually stay.
