Manifestation, the Lion’s Gate Portal, and Why Your Nervous System Holds the Key

The Lion’s Gate Portal is powerful for manifesting — but without nervous system safety, success can slip away. Here’s how to prepare so your next leve

Every year, the Lion’s Gate Portal (peaking on 8/8) invites us into a higher frequency of possibility. It’s a time when our intentions can feel supercharged, our vision crystal clear, and our energy wide open to receive the abundance we’ve been calling in.

It’s no wonder so many spiritual entrepreneurs, coaches, and healers get excited during this time — it’s like the universe is leaning in, saying, “Go ahead, love… dream big.”

But here’s the truth no one really talks about: if your nervous system isn’t prepared for the level you’re manifesting… you will sabotage it.

I know this, because I’ve lived it.

The Reality Behind the Dream

When I reached six figures in business — almost overnight — I should have been celebrating. I’d worked for years to get there. Instead, my whole body went into overdrive. I couldn’t sleep properly. I overcomplicated everything. I started making choices from fear rather than flow. And within months… it was gone.

When I lost three stone in just four months, people couldn’t stop telling me how incredible I looked. But inside? I felt like a stranger in my own body. I didn’t know how to relate to this version of me that I had craved for years. It was uncomfortable — and without realising, I slowly crept back into old patterns, regaining every pound I’d lost.

Both of these experiences taught me something that changed my life: your mind can want something, your soul can be ready for it, but if your nervous system doesn’t feel safe to hold it, you’ll find a way to let it go.

The Missing Link in Manifestation

When we talk about the Lion’s Gate Portal or any powerful manifestation moment, we focus so much on visualisation, affirmations, and intention-setting.
These are beautiful practices. But without nervous system regulation, they’re incomplete.

Think about it:

  • If you’ve always struggled financially, having large amounts of money in your account might feel unsafe, unfamiliar, or “too much” for your body.
  • If you’ve spent years feeling unseen or undervalued, suddenly being in the spotlight may feel like a threat, not a blessing.
  • If you’ve been stuck in survival mode, ease and flow can feel deeply unsettling.

Your nervous system isn’t trying to punish you — it’s trying to protect you. It only knows how to keep you in the familiar. And unless you actively expand its capacity, it will pull you back to what it knows.

Preparing for the Next Level

If you want to truly receive what the Lion’s Gate Portal is offering, your nervous system must feel safe to hold it.
Here’s how I prepare mine (and how I support my clients to do the same):

  1. Ground First, Dream Second
    Before you get swept up in the excitement of your vision, ground into your body. Breathe deeply. Feel your feet. Connect with the present moment.
  2. Expand in Small Increments
    Don’t leap from £2k months to £20k months in your visualisations without also imagining how you’ll safely hold and manage that level. See yourself living in it, day by day, until it feels normal.
  3. Release Stored Stress & Fear
    I use Silent Counselling (Rapid Energy Release Techniques) daily to move the energy of fear, overwhelm, and unworthiness out of my system. This makes space for expansion.
  4. Anchor Safety into Your Wins
    Each time you take a step forward — a new client, a new opportunity, a new healthy habit — pause. Breathe. Tell your body: “It’s safe for me to have this. I know how to hold it.”

This Lion’s Gate, Do It Differently

This portal isn’t just about setting big intentions. It’s about becoming the version of you who can sustain what you call in.
Because the truth is, manifesting is easy. Holding it is where the work — and the magic — really happens.

This week, I invite you to ask yourself:

“If my vision landed in my lap today… would my nervous system know how to hold it without fear, overwhelm, or sabotage?”

If the answer is “maybe” or “not yet,” that’s not a failure — it’s a sign to nurture yourself into readiness.

And when you do… this Lion’s Gate won’t just change your vision board.
It will change your reality.

If your ready to manifest your next 6 figures... and hold on to it, and build a business that aligns with your next level version of you, then this is your invitation 

Your next level isn’t just possible, it’s inevitable when you say YES to support.
