One of the downfalls of many meditation, mindfulness, and manifestation techniques is that they affect everyone differently. Like you stated, people with trauma often experience greater pain, discomfort, or mental chaos in response to these practices. That’s something that must be accounted for!

When I think of the Law of Attraction, I imagine that we all have little buds on the surface of our bodies. An object or person can only glom onto us if we have an appropriate bud. Our responsibility is to produce buds when we can, and if this means overcoming trauma first, then that is the work we must do. Trauma is essentially an injury, and if the injury is to the region where a bud needs to be produced, the region will have to heal before any growth can take place.

LOA is first and foremost what you make of it. I have no problems with the visualizing things into the realm of existence. Can I do that with money, no - why? Because it's something I need to put an emotion to for it to work the best. I don't have a money mindset because I'm used to there never being enough of it to go around therefore the emotions my visualization practice brings up around it are negative in retrospect not because I didn't try hard enough or because of my disability but because of the persistent thoughts/beliefs I have and the paradigms that I need to break first to raise myself up to the same vibrational I have with my belief I can write stories. Once my new paradigms and beliefs about money are on equal footing, which raise the vibrational level of where I wanna be that I will be able call it into existence. It is not something that happens overnight. Plus, I have to take risks and chances outside of my comfort zone to do such things in order to be open to it, but it has nothing to do with the trauma I've suffered - ever.
