A Business Built on Daydreaming
I was talking about daydreaming with a good friend of mine, who never fails to make me laugh or share some completely unexpected little tidbit of information that opens up my view of the world.
On this particular day, I learned how daydreaming shifted her mindset from feeling stuck to finding hope in the early years of her marriage. Daydreaming also helped her manifest a thriving Pilates studio.
Kristin had three children under four years old, and her world felt very small as she was a full-time, stay at home parent. She fiercely loved her children; it just seemed like she lost touch with who she was before kids. Her days blurred together.
Her view of the world offered everyone else experiencing a vibrant and dynamic life. She felt like her existence had come to a screeching halt. Baby steps and chubby arms were holding her in place.
Sometimes her thoughts clunked together in her head, holding her in a tight place emotionally. When the light made it through the slow-moving thoughts, she would dream about a life that included some of her old passions, like working out with friends. She particularly enjoyed Pilates.
While her children napped, she would run different scenarios of what her life could be like. Kristin imagined being able to help other busy moms get together and work out. Eventually, she was inspired to become a licensed Pilates instructor. This was just step one of what her daydreams promised.
With her new license, she began teaching Pilates in her garage. The limitation of one client at a time sparked her imagination again. How could she offer more to her friends and community?
Eventually, these daydreams led her to open a successful boutique Pilates studio aptly named Garage Pilates. Her clients still come together and form friendships far beyond the studio walls.
The transformation didn’t happen overnight, but the daydreaming of possibilities brought a lightness into her day. It took some of the pressure off her family life because she was able to see outside the dayto-day chores.
Daydreaming inspired Kristin to take a risk on something she didn’t even know was missing in her life. A little flicker of a daydream led to the creation of a business that fulfills many parts of her life. Her husband has been by her side, and the children have grown up watching their mother create with joy.
The family celebrates the success of her studio, and in turn, she encourages them to dream big.
The long-ago daydreaming was a pressure release for a young mother. It became a tool that helped take the focus off being a perfect parent and wife. Her children have grown like wildflowers. They are all independent in nature, funny, and brilliant. She created something in her life that brought joy to her world. Of course, her entire family benefits from the creative and inspired energy that flows freely through the household.
Five Ways Daydreaming Improves Your Life
Daydreaming can help you manifest your goals. When you allow yourself to think about the things you really love in your life, you will automatically begin shifting your life to match your thoughts. It is up to each of us to pay attention to our thoughts and what we are inviting into our world.
Daydreaming is a great way to release worries and decrease stress. Allowing your mind to just gently float and think peaceful thoughts is a great way to reset your mind. It’s not that you are avoiding your workload; you are simply giving yourself some room to breathe.
Daydreaming is a great way to connect with a higher power. As your logical mind shifts, you can imagine the veil thinning. This creates an open doorway for you to communicate with the other side. This might be the source, your angels, guides, or loved ones that have crossed over.
Daydreaming frees your thoughts to form new perspectives in a very flowing and non-judgmental way. It makes it easy to see other possibilities. You are not committing to other possibilities, but you know they are available to you.
Daydreams can be very empowering. It’s a great opportunity to see yourself winning a race or whatever other endeavor you take part in. Allow the feeling of success to fill you up with joy as it pulls you forward.
Daydreaming is like a Bridge to the other side.
Daydreaming is like slipping into an easier vibration or flow of thoughts. Your mind creates and connects with what brings you joy. Your thoughts become completely uninhibited. This awareness is very similar to meditation, where you clear your mind. It also is a vibrational match to affirmative prayer, where you give thanks for what is coming into your life. It’s easy for your mind to weave in between daydreaming, affirmative prayer, and meditation. This is a beautiful place to be for manifestation, talking with God, or just enjoying life.
Make a date to Day Dream.
It may seem counterintuitive to plan a daydream experience, but if it’s not part of your practice, you need to start somewhere. Where can you slip into a little daydream? It might be on a lazy Saturday morning, walking the dog, or taking a bubble bath. Who knows, maybe this will take you to the beginning of an entirely new life journey.
