Welcome to the heartbeat of Integrative Counsel, our blog where tranquility meets transformation. This is your sanctuary for insights and wisdom on nurturing a harmonious connection between mind, body, and spirit.
In the quest for love and companionship, the idea of “calling in” one’s perfect partner has gained traction as a transformative approach to relationship-seeking. Dating around can be fun, but there are only so many interesting (but bad) dates that a single person should have to handle. No matter how much we put ourselves out there, ultimately meeting the right person is a matter of faith, fate, and time. Manifesting the right partner is a compelling alternative to playing the waiting game, and helps you understand exactly who it is you’re looking for. In this article, we will explore the practical steps and mindset shifts involved when we want to manifest love. Through the act of imagining the partner you deserve, you can grow a loving relationship with yourself that will magnetically attract a deserving partner into your life. Is it easy? No. That’s why we’ve written this guide.
“To find love, you must first ask yourself if you’re giving as much love as you wish to get.”
Louise Hay
There’s a lot of dating advice out there that amounts to this: use the dating apps at your disposal, put yourself out there as much as you can, and go on as many dates as possible. This is not inherently bad advice for a single person, and following it may often result in the development of new relationships, but finding the right somebody is more than just finding some body. People will treat you as you treat yourself, and partners are no exception. If you seek love without self-love, then no amount of external validation will be able to sustain you. To be able to call in the right person, you must become the right person for yourself.
When we want to manifest love, this is often the most frustrating part. We often seek love as a substitute for self-validation, so when we’re told that in order to find the right partner we have to be a good partner to ourselves, we find that piece of advice all too easy to ignore. But make no mistake, self-love is necessary in a functioning romantic relationship.
Manifesting your perfect partner is a matter of becoming the sort of partner that you’d want to seek out. That means self-improvement, thought work, and ultimately self-love. The closest thing you have to a shortcut to manifest love.

Yes! Therapy is one of the most effective ways to get to work on yourself. Sometimes, we can’t always see where we need to improve, or, we see all the things we need to work on, but feel overwhelmed and freeze. A good therapist will help you check your blindspots and hold the lamp for you when the things you are examining are scary or uncomfortable.
