The ‘Best Of’ Magic Monday Tricks

I can’t believe that I’ve been sending Magic Mondays since October of 2022! In 2020, I was actually making YouTube videos each week called “Magic Monday,” where I would pull an oracle card for the week. This evolved into the very newsletter you’re subscribed to now – and I’m so grateful you’ve been a part of this magical journey! I hope there have been some ‘tricks’ along the way that have brought you some joy!

Since many people have joined this magical newsletter since 2022, I thought I’d share a quick list of the top ten Magic Monday newsletters! These are the ones that received the most amount of email replies, messages, feedback, and are amongst my favorite tricks that I still use to this day.

If you want more details on each Magic Monday trick, you’ll find the original Magic Monday post with more info! Drumroll please….

10. 5-Star Reviews

Makes Biggest Difference For Others

This one is particularly powerful because it makes more of a difference than you realize! Working with so many businesses, I know a lot of owners who rely heavily on positive reviews to grow and even stay afloat. It’s more common to write a review after we’ve had a negative experience, but this magic trick encourages you to take some time to leave positive reviews for businesses you support. Positive feedback and support provide the motivation and encouragement businesses need to keep going!

9. Gratitude Stone

Highly Ranked Podcast Episode

For some reason, this Magic Monday podcast episode performed exceptionally well – it’s one of the simplest Magic Monday tricks in my archive. All you need is a stone or crystal by your bed. Each night, hold the stone and think of the best thing that happened to you during the day. By focusing on gratitude before sleep, you’ll wake up feeling grateful, setting a positive tone for the day ahead.

8. Bubble Bath For Your Mind

Highly Rated on Insight Timer

This 10-minute guided meditation invites you to visualize yourself stepping into a bubble bath and pouring in your own personal elixirs to strengthen desired feelings. This creative meditation offers a unique twist by incorporating your personalized magical potions, making you feel ready for anything!

7. FocusMate

Personal Favorite Magic Trick

If you want the most powerful productivity tool, give FocusMate a try! If you procrastinate at all or struggle to focus on tasks, FocusMate matches you with partners around the world on video calls so you have support and accountability. It has been a major help for me – I’ve met some wonderful people and my productivity level has skyrocketed!

6. Askfirmations

Most Email Replies

Many people replied to this email mainly saying that they had never heard of this technique before. Here’s what you do: instead of using “I AM” affirmations, you ask “WHY AM I _____?” By doing this, your brain automatically searches for evidence that this is true, making the statement more believable. When a statement is more believable, it’s easier to grow!

5. Write With Your Intuition

Highest Ranked Blog Post

This is a technique that I teach most of my clients because it is SO POWERFUL. The reason I am doing what I’m doing now is because I have a strong relationship with my intuition. You can enhance your intuitive connection by writing with it. This magic trick will change your life – I can’t sum it up in a quick blurb, so be sure to check out the original post if you want to learn how.

4. Ambience Videos

Most Continued Use

This was my very first newsletter! I still receive messages/photos from people to this day saying they watch ambience videos because of this Magic Monday. It kind of feels like a silly ‘trick,’ but it can completely change the vibe/environment of your space. When you have a beautiful scene and calming ASMR sounds, you instantly feel more relaxed and at peace (I’m currently listening to the “Medieval Market Life Experience” and it’s such a vibe! 😂).

3. Child’s Pose

Most Shared With Others

This was a reminder that it takes a lot of strength to pause. We often think that taking action and working hard is the difficult part, but true strength lies in listening to our bodies and intuition, and honoring the need to rest. Getting into ‘child’s pose’ in life is challenging for our ego to accept, yet it is probably the most genuine demonstration of strength.

2. Tree of Me

Most Feedback All-Around

I was so honored to hear that many people tried this activity! Many of my tricks help you tap into your inner child, and this one is definitely a favorite. It helps you discover your roots, purpose, and goals. By writing them out in a creative way, you shift your neural pathways, making your goals easier to manifest! It’s a powerful process that blends creativity with intention, making your dreams feel more attainable and real.

1. Voice Memo Journaling

Most Impactful For Clients

If I could have everyone I know practice one magic trick, it would be this one! Voice memo journaling is very simple: just press ‘record’ on your voice message app and start talking about anything and everything. By doing this, you’ll accumulate many entries and start noticing patterns, and you’ll often become your own guide. I have hundreds of voice messages that have helped me heal, grow, and discover insights I never would have thought of before. Even this weekend, my friend told me he’s been journaling since we had our session together over a year ago and it has really helped him! I promise, it is a trick that you will not regret practicing!

Can I ask you a favor?

My mission with Magic Monday is to spread hope, inspiration, and magic as far as I can. These are all tools that I have used personally and they have made my life so much better.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart! xo

On a Personal Note…

I have to be honest, creating this Top Ten list and remembering these different phases over the past few years has made me a little emotional! So many times during my entrepreneurial journey, I have wondered if I’m actually making a difference, if I should just go back to a ‘real job,’ or if anything I’m sharing is even resonating. But then I take the time to reflect and notice how much magic has accumulated over the past 4 years since Dream Life Connection was born. Then I think, “WOW! I’ve done all this?!” It all adds up…

If there’s anything in your life that you want to give up on or if you ever feel doubt, remember that progress often comes in small, magical moments. Reflect on your journey and see the impact you’ve made, no matter how small it seems. Stay persistent, keep believing in your dreams, and trust that your efforts are making a difference. Even if you are impacting ONE person, it is worth it all.

Again, thank you for being part of this magical journey with me. Here’s to many more Magic Mondays to come! YAY!

Have a magical week,
Andrea
