We’re going to talk about why the ego doesn’t manifest, what spiritual bypassing and manifestation can have in common and how it really looks like in the manifestation world, and how to finally align with the part of you that does create reality: your awareness. The real you.

This is not manifesting : (

Trying to manifest before regulating your emotions… is like redecorating a house while it’s on fire. And I see it all the time – people clinging to vision boards, affirmations, or the next technique… but deep down, they’re not creating.

They’re escaping.

So let me ask you this: Are you actually manifesting your desires? Or are you spiritually bypassing and calling it alignment?

It wasn’t until I understood the ego – not as the enemy, but as a part of me trying to protect me – that everything shifted. And I share it in detail closer to the end of the video so stay with me 🙂

We’re going to talk about what spiritual bypassing and manifestation can have in common and how to finally align with the part of you that does create reality: your awareness. The real you.

This might feel like truth hitting your nervous system, so I’ll be saying this while I hold your hand – I say all this with love! Because I’ve been there too. So grab your favourite hot or cold beverage and let’s get into it.

The trap of spiritual bypassing

People try to manifest from the human self – from ego. This is where spiritual bypassing and manifestation meet and can create some confusion and avoidance. People often think it’s about thinking positively or scripting the right way… But the truth is:

The ego (or the human self) doesn’t manifest.

It’s the shadow believing it’s the source of light. This goes way beyond just picking a manifestation technique or repeating positive affirmations. Manifestation isn’t a game of tricks and techniques. Requiring you to do something to get something. It’s not a trade.

It’s an unfolding of truth – from your awareness, so what dwells in your subconscious as your beliefs, not your identity. And here’s the kicker: A lot of what we call “manifesting” is actually spiritual bypassing in disguise.

So what is spiritual bypassing?

It’s when we use spiritual tools – affirmations, meditation, high vibes, “I’m manifesting” talk- to avoid reality. To avoid our pain, our grief, our fears. When we avoid, and thus resist, what is.

To skip the part where we actually feel. Using the big words to avoid the big feelings.

It sounds like:

• “I don’t have time for low vibrations.”
• Denying that we feel something negative
• Denying that we think something unfavourable
• Denying undesired beliefs still dwelling within
• Trying to force a new state out of fear, but really just convincing yourself you’re doing the work

But really? You’re avoiding discomfort. You’re suppressing emotion and bypassing the very healing that would make you magnetic in the first place.

It comes from fear, the ego will try to convince you that it’s not safe to feel but only because it knows it leads to fearlessness and surrender. And surrendering, letting go of control, is the ego’s biggest fear, it’s like the ego death.

Instead of practicing emotional mastery or emotional regulation that gets you there, many people just repeat affirmations hoping their subconscious mind will take the hint… but inside, they still feel unsafe.

No amount of scripting will override your nervous system like the letting go method to process your emotions for example. No visualization will cancel your unresolved trauma and release the trapped emotions.

What manifestation really is

Let’s get back to what manifesting actually is. True manifestation comes from the I AM – the presence behind the person or the experience. It’s not about “wanting” or doing something to get it.

It’s about being.

You don’t manifest from the ego. You manifest through awareness. By becoming the identity that already experienced it and is aware of it, thus selecting it through awareness, through naturalness of the beliefs. As above, so below. And if you’d like to know if your awareness is increasing, I have a video about the Signs you’re levelling up in consciousness and you can read it here.

You stop trying to control reality… and instead attune to it, matching its vibration. You stop trying to create, instead through increased awareness, you realise all has always been here, within.

This is why trying to manifest when you haven’t processed your emotions is like painting the walls while the house is still burning. You might make it look cute for a minute – but underneath, everything’s still on fire. SO it’s crucial to know the difference between spiritual bypassing in manifestation.

And what’s fuelling the fire?

• Unprocessed trauma.
• Survival mode.
• Emotions trapped in your body.
• Chronic anxiety.
• Energetic chaos.

It’s what keeps your vibrations as NOT a match for your dream reality. They decrease your overall vibe, occupying your thoughts and consuming your energy. But you deserve better than bypassing yourself and let me assure you that all you truly desire will be yours 100%, you can lay back. But real talk, I’ll hold your hand as I say this: you need to soothe yourself and bring in the state of peace and experience the natural state of detachment that’s the by-product, to actually experience it in the 3D.

You want to align with abundance? Cool. Start by making space for the part of you that feels scarce.

You want to attract love? Amazing. Sit with the version of you that still believes love isn’t safe.

Healing is not a detour from manifesting. Healing is manifesting. That reconnecting with yourself and coming back to the true self.

Signs you’re spiritually bypassing

Here are some signs you might be spiritually bypassing in your manifestation journey:

• Being determined to “stay high vibe” but secretly feel shaming yourself for having bad days.

• Avoiding emotions like sadness, grief, or fear because you’re afraid they’ll “ruin your frequency.”
• Blaming yourself when things don’t manifest – thinking you did it wrong.
• Feeling spiritual superiority or using the “spiritual status” (awakening, knowledge, practices) to feel above others. Better than those unaware.
• Obsessing over specific outcomes instead of trusting the deeper unfolding.
• Avoiding “low vibe” people or conversations, not from boundaries – but from fear, that they are like poison.
• And the big one? Using spirituality as a shield against your own humanity and a way to deny WHAT IS.

Are you manifesting from the Ego?

So… how do you know if you’re trying to manifest from the ego? Well – here’s the truth:

Most people are.

And that’s not entirely a bad thing. Every desire you have that you want to experience in 3D – not “just” in your imagination – is an ego desire. The ego wants results in its world. It wants proof. It wants things to happen out there, in the world of separation. And that’s okay.

That’s part of the game we’re in. Experiencing it as this game hero. But problems arise when we don’t recognize it’s the ego that’s driving. And believing that there’s some Out there, out there.

Here’s how you can differentiate spiritual bypassing from manifestation:

1. You’re focused on the techniques

Chasing the perfect method that will finally “work.” Trying technique after technique. You’re feeling exhausted and on a verge of a burnout, disappointed that it worked for some people but somehow doesn’t work for you.

2. You’re attached to the outcome

Believing you’ll finally feel safe or happy once you get the thing. But getting a thing is just a permission slip to feeling what you’re already are. You are the source of love and happiness. We just block it because we believe that state is conditioned, dependent on what we get and then we allow ourselves to feel good.

3. You blame the external

You blame the technique, or the teacher, or Mercury retrograde when it doesn’t happen, when you’re unsuccessful to experience the desire in the 3D.

4. Experiencing it “just in your imagination” isn’t enough

You need physical proof or it doesn’t count. When we say: imagination is reality we mean it. When you experience things in your imagination, you feel it real HERE and NOW. It just works fast because it’s operating on super fast frequencies, there’s no limit there. The 3D world is very slowly vibrating so your wants have to slow down and have enough space in your physical reality to actually manifest there.

And here’s what’s really going on:

👉 The ego wants you to do, do, do. It turns everything into a performance.

It will even use tools like the law of assumption, or your mental diet, just to avoid stillness. Just so you don’t have to feel the emotions trapped in your body that block the flow of life. Because you’re so advanced already, so why would you feel that, right? That is spiritual bypassing.

That’s what really blocks the flow of life – not lack of technique. But unprocessed emotion. But true mind discipline means observing those patterns – not escaping them.

The truth that most people don’t want to sit with is this: We don’t actually manifest “stuff.” We manifest emotions. Because emotion is the experience we came here for – in this messy, beautiful, embodied human form. To experience, to feel, to expand. No matter if the ego gives it a label “good” or “bad” – it’s an experience and for the God within, that’s perfection.

But the ego doesn’t want us to feel it. It wants us to perform. To achieve and to spiritually outshine others. To chase instead of feel. I hope this is landing with you 🙂

Conclusion

Here’s the truth: Manifesting is really fun but… Real manifesting isn’t shiny at first. It’s messy. Raw. Honest. Present. Abstract for the rational mind.

We need to be mindful and know the difference between spiritual bypassing and manifestation so that we don’t accidentally doom ourselves in avoidance.

It means slowing down enough to ask: “Who is the I that wants to manifest this? Is it my wholeness… or is it my wound?”

You can’t reach higher consciousness by pretending you’re not anxious. Healing your anxiety in manifesting is part of reprogramming your subconscious mind – not a distraction from it. Or impediment to fix.

When you drop into the awareness behind your story – your I AM – you stop chasing. And that’s when things start to flow. And that’s when you start like coming back home.

Not because you forced things… But because you became a clear space for yourself and accepted yourself in your entirety: the good, the bad, the ugly.
