Manifesting my dream life

I remember very vividly the first time I met my highest self and envisioned my dream life.

I was getting up in the morning in a very beautiful country house surrounded by an amazing natural landscape.
My dog Nino was coming close to my bed as soon as I woke up, as usual and he looked very happy. The bedroom was at the first floor of this big and cozy house. I was going down the stairs and in a beautiful wooden kitchen smelling of coffee and tasty food there was a sexy man, preparing our breakfast.

I looked around and the space was so peaceful, warm and cozy: a big window was facing a colorful garden full of trees and flowers. The sun light shone on the brown leather sofa that was just in front of a big stone fireplace.
My heart was open and happy and I felt excited and very much in love with my family and my life.

I envisioned all this in 2019 and at the time I just moved to Amsterdam for what I was considering my dream job as executive producer for the coolest digital production studio of Los Angeles. I was single and still recovering from a very painful separation that happened almost four years before and completely broke my heart and my trust in love relationships.

This is me at the beginning of 2019, just moved to Amsterdam with Nino.

Those images and feelings that I felt so alive and present during my meditation looked actually very far away from my reality. But the highest and wisest future version of myself, who looked so confident, peaceful and free, reassured me that I just needed to be patient and trustful and that everything would have gone in that direction, without so much effort.

A few months later I quit my job ad just a few weeks after I met my current partner and he looked incredibly similar to the guy I saw in my meditation (and he usually also prepares breakfast for us in the morning).

I kept visiting my happy place and connecting with my highest future self every now and then and most of the time she was with a kid, sometimes in a mountain forest and sometimes on a beach with palm trees. But the most important thing is that she was always so much in peace and trustful that I was walking the right path and that everything that was meant to be would have come to me. I just needed to be home to open the door when the bell would have rung.

My rational mind was very skeptical about all this and didn’t really know what to do with these visions. From that time many things happened in my life: in 2020 just before the pandemic started I stopped working and moved in with my boyfriend, after only two months from our first meeting. I founded my brand Casa Lucina with my friend Irene, studied Tarot and took care of a vegetable garden for a while. It was a good time of introspection, relax, study, spiritual practice, silence and deep listening of my intuition.

At the end of 2021, after almost two years of pandemic, I felt I was missing a purpose in my life, I was missing a deep connection with Nature and even if I love Amsterdam, I didn’t want to live in a city anymore. Without even saying that the Dutch weather was killing me..

Since a few months already I started having a consistent morning practice (that I still have) where I was connecting with my body and my intuition through breathwork, movement and meditation. Every morning I ask for guidance to the Universe and in that particular time I was asking for a mission, a project to trow myself in and that could bring a deep meaning, connection with Nature and an inspiring and international community in my life.

I was surrendering to the Universe every day more and opening my heart up to the limitless abundance of life, with no judgement and expectations, aware that everything that happens in my life (even that awful betrayal and separation) has as its ultimate goal the evolution, growth and expansion of my soul.

One day that I was especially desperate and bored I saw a random post on a Facebook group where a woman (I had no idea who she was) was looking for someone helping her building and managing her new business in the island of Gran Canaria.

I honestly had no idea what she was talking about and since she said she was living in Palma de Gran Canarias and I was pretty ignorant about the Spanish islands I thought she was in Palma De Mallorca. But for some reason there was something coming from my intuition telling me to answer that message and almost without thinking I just wrote her I was interested in her project.

I called her a few days after, still thinking she was in Mallorca for most of the call. Just at the end of our conversation I figured out she was in Gran Canaria, that I honestly didn’t even know where geographically was. At the end of the call I googled it and as soon as I saw the images of the island I realized that it was the place that I was seeing in my meditations since a few years.

Long story short I visited the island, met the woman and I am moving there with my boyfriend and my dog in a few months, super excited to start this new project and life.
My future self was right: I just needed to wait and be present and open to receive what the Universe was sending my way.
