Manifesting is bull. There, I said it.

According to Oprah, manifesting is bringing something tangible into your life through attraction and belief—i.e. if you think it, it will come.

It encourages people to bring a goal to life by making vision boards, writing in manifestation journals, chanting positive affirmations, and speaking it into existence.

Cue eye roll.
