If you’ve ever felt pulled toward something more meaningful or wondered how to navigate life when nothing feels quite right, The Formula Bashar teaches might offer the clarity you’re looking for. It’s not about manifesting a vision board into existence overnight. It’s not about bypassing the hard stuff. And it’s definitely not about floating in a sea of “just think positive” advice.
This is a practice. A recalibration. A way to stay aligned, even when things seem out of your control.
If you’re new to his message, he’s a multidimensional being channeled by Daryl Anka. Whether or not that’s your thing, the teachings themselves are surprisingly grounded, and the core idea, what’s called “the Formula” Bashar teaches is something that has actually helped me feel more present in everyday life.
The steps make sense whether you believe in channeling or not, and I’ve found there are practical reasons Bashar’s formula actually works that might surprise you.
The Formula Bashar Teaches
Here it is, as he simplifies it:
- Act on your highest excitement.
Whatever excites you the most? Do that. It doesn’t have to be huge. Small nudges count! - To the best of your ability.
With whatever time, energy, or resources you have in the moment. - Until you can take it no further.
Ride the wave until it naturally shifts or fades. - With zero expectation of the outcome.
This one is key. Let go of trying to control what it leads to. That’s where the magic happens.
Remember, your beliefs shape your reality.
Why It’s Not Just Mumbo Jumbo
I’ve heard versions of this kind of message before: Abraham Hicks, The Secret, books on manifestation and the Law of Attraction. It seem like all the cool kids are doing it. But Bashar’s version and delivery really resonates with me.
There’s something refreshingly practical about his take on it. It doesn’t ask you to sit back and visualize until your dream life lands on your doorstep. It says: take action. But not just any action… aligned action. The kind that feels exciting. Alive. The kind of action that your heart and soul took forward to taking, and gets you out of bed in the morning.
It doesn’t mean following a checklist and pushing through it just because it’s “what you said you’d do.” Although, for me, checklists are something that do excite me. Something about crossing things off a list gives me more pleasure than it probably should.
But, this plan means being willing to let the plan (and list) change in real-time if your excitement shifts. That kind of flexibility isn’t flaky. It’s intuitive, and it’s actually being kind to yourself.
What Following Your Highest Excitement Actually Means
It’s not about chasing big dreams every minute of the day. Sometimes your highest excitement is writing. Sometimes it’s cleaning your kitchen. Or calling a friend. Or closing your laptop and taking a walk.
It’s about tuning in to what has the most energy for you right now, and doing that.
That might seem silly, or self-indulgent, or whatever your inner critic might be trying to tell you. Ignore that voice. It doesn’t know what it’s talking about because that voice isn’t yours. It’s a voice from somewhere in your past, and you’re moving forward!
We’ll have to have a discussion at some point about Bashar’s explanation of everything happening at the same time… there is no forward or past. But anyway…
All of these things that excite you, and you don’t see where they’re going? You don’t need to know. In fact, Bashar says your imagination is limited to what you already know. But when you let go of needing a specific outcome, you open the door to possibilities you never could have planned for. That’s when life starts to surprise you. And that’s exciting in itself!
No Expectations = Big Freedom
Letting go of expectations is the hardest part. But also the most freeing.
Bashar emphasizes that the outcome is not your job. You follow the thread of excitement, moment by moment, and trust that it’s leading somewhere meaningful, even if you don’t understand it right away.
And if a task comes up that feels boring or heavy, you have options (these are my ideas and method):
- Reframe it in your mind so it connects back to something that does excite you.
- Find a way to make it more enjoyable.
- Delegate it.
If you can do that, the energy shifts. You move through it more easily, and the next wave of excitement becomes easier to spot.
Why This Practice Resonates With Me
I’ve been circling these ideas for years. Abraham. The Law of Attraction. The Secret. They all left breadcrumbs. But the formula Bashar teaches hits differently.
It’s not about visualizing some perfect life. It’s about choosing what lights you up in this moment, and then the next. It keeps me present, which ties in with my love of the teachings of Eckhart Tolle. It keeps me from overthinking. And when I forget? I reset. I ask: what would excite me right now?
That one question shifts everything.
Course-Correcting When You Feel Off
It’s not a big dramatic thing. No guilt. No spiraling.
Just a quick check-in: Is what I’m doing right now bringing me any kind of excitement or energy?
If not, pause. Shift. Sometimes just remembering to ask the question is enough to start moving in a new direction.
I stopped the chase of “manifesting things” a long time ago. I do love the stories of people who it works for but it never really worked for me. Or maybe I was just waiting for the right thing. This? This is something I enjoy
It helps me stay on track, even when I don’t know where the track is going.
This same approach also shows up in his insights about imagination and how to manifest what you want.
The Takeaway:
Bashar’s formula is a deceptively simple practice with surprisingly deep results. You don’t need to figure out your five-year plan. You just need to follow what excites you now. Take action. Let go of how it’s “supposed” to turn out.
It’s practical. It’s energizing. And it’s become a daily way for me to reconnect with myself.
