Love Sunday’s Josie Copson tries tapping manifestat­ion for herself

-

Although Poppy tells me that I can do this anywhere, for my first go, I decide to try it in my bedroom with the door closed. My parents have become accustomed to many of my, erm, unique habits since moving back in with them at the start of the pandemic. This includes showering at midday and eating whipped cream directly from the can. I don’t think they’re emotionall­y ready to hear their daughter proclaim her future goals while tapping her face!

First I have to pinpoint what it is I want to manifest. I’ve got an enjoyable job, plus lovely family and friends, so I decide to get myself a nice boyfriend. Why not?

I start tapping between my eyes as advised, saying, “I feel I have not yet had romantic love because it has not been my time”, before moving down to my chest and concluding with, “but it is possible for me as I deserve a partner”.

I repeat this another three times to ensure the universe really hears me. When I pick up my phone, I’m disappoint­ed to see that my Instagram inbox isn’t immediatel­y flooded with potential suitors.

Shortly after I’ve completed the exercise again the following day, my doorbell rings and I excitedly make my way to the front door to retrieve my Asos parcel. Standing before me is a very goodlookin­g postman, around my age. He has definitely not visited my home before. Without sounding too creepy, I would have remembered him! We engage in some small talk, and end the conversati­on with a “See you soon”. Finally my shopping addiction is going to come in handy! Perhaps he’s been personally delivered to me (see what I did there?). Or, let’s face it, maybe he already has a wife and kids at home. I make it my mission to continue tapping just in case!
