The Solulu method: what it is and how to do it
The Solulu method is a simple way to manifest in three steps. Write one specific scene from the life you want. See yourself in it, with a photo or video that shows your own face. Then watch it every morning and night, and swap in fresh pictures every few days so it never goes stale. You can do it by hand for free, or with the Solulu app.
What is the Solulu method?
The Solulu method is a way to manifest the life you want. Manifesting means bringing something into your real life by believing it is already yours.
It has three steps:
- Write your scene. Write one specific moment from the life you want, as if it is already happening.
- See yourself in it. Find or make a picture or video of that moment, with your own face in it.
- Watch it every day, and keep it fresh. Look at it when you wake up and before you sleep. Every few days, swap in a new picture or a new moment.
That’s the whole method. Writing your first scene takes about 15 minutes. Making the pictures takes a few minutes with a photo you already have, or longer if you make a video. After that, it’s a few minutes a day.
It works for anything you want: your SP, money, a new home, your dream job or your glow-up.
Why it works
Think about how hard it is to believe in a life you can’t see. You want them, but when you close your eyes, the picture is blurry. Or it feels fake, like you’re pretending.
The Solulu method makes that life something you can actually look at, with you in it. Your subconscious believes what it sees, again and again. When you see yourself in that life every day, it stops feeling like a wish and starts feeling like a memory. And once something feels normal to you, it has a way of showing up.
This idea comes from the Law of Assumption, a teaching by Neville Goddard, a manifesting teacher from the mid-1900s. He taught that whatever you believe and feel to be true becomes your real life. He called it “living in the end”: feeling your wish as already done. Read more in the Law of Assumption explained.
What makes it different from other methods
- You see yourself, not a stranger. Affirmations (positive sentences you repeat) give you words. Vision boards give you pretty pictures of other people’s lives. The Solulu method shows your own face, already living it.
- You don’t have to imagine it. Lots of methods ask you to build the picture in your head and hold it there. That’s the hardest part, and it’s why so many girls say “I just can’t see it.” Here, the picture is right in front of you.
- It never goes stale. Most methods use the same words or the same pictures every day. After a while, your mind stops reacting. The Solulu method keeps your pictures fresh, so the feeling stays strong.
- It’s easy to keep doing. A few minutes when you wake up and before bed. No journaling marathons, no counting lines.

Where the Solulu method comes from
The Solulu method came from girls who love manifesting and tried everything. Affirmations, vision boards, mind movies. Scripting, which is journaling about your dream life. The 369 method, where you write a wish 3, 6 and 9 times a day.
They noticed the same thing kept happening. A new method felt amazing at first. They felt the spark, they felt close. Then, after a few weeks, it went flat. The words stopped meaning anything, and the vision board became part of the wall. So they’d switch to a new method, and the same thing would happen again.
So they kept the parts that worked and dropped the parts that made them give up. Then they added the thing every method was missing: keeping it fresh.
| Method they tried | What they kept | What they dropped |
|---|---|---|
| Scripting | Writing about the life you want as if it’s already true | A long page of writing every day |
| Vision boards | Keeping your wish in front of your eyes | Pictures of strangers that you stop noticing |
| Mind movies | Watching your dream life as a little movie | Hours of editing, then watching the same video for months |
| Visualizing before sleep | Thinking about your wish as you drift off | Having to build the whole picture in your head |
| Affirmations and the 369 method | Doing it every single day | Repeating the same lines until they feel empty |
What was left became the Solulu method. It was the method that finally worked for them. With it, they manifested the goals the other methods had not brought them.
They did everything by hand at first: writing scenes, making pictures of themselves, putting together their own videos. It worked, but keeping it fresh by hand took hours every week. So they built the Solulu app to do that part for them. The method itself is still free, and you can still do it all by hand.
Why it’s called “Solulu”
The name comes from the saying “delulu is the solulu.” Delulu is short for delusional. Solulu is a cute way to say solution. It means believing in your dream before there’s any proof is exactly how you get it. Read the full story of the phrase.
Being delulu is the belief. The Solulu method turns it into a little daily ritual.
How to do it, step by step
Step 1: Write your scene
A scene is one moment from the life you want. It can be short, like kissing your SP on a beach in Porto. It can be long, like a whole day at the job you’ve always wanted. What matters is that it’s a real moment you could picture, not a general wish.
Make it hyper specific. This is the most important part. Not “I have lots of money,” but “My millionaire SP sends me $20,000 every week.” Not “I’m in a happy relationship,” but “We kiss on the beach in Porto at sunset.” A general wish is hard to feel. A specific moment makes your heart skip, and that feeling is what you’re after.
Write it like this:
- Be exact. Name the person, the place, the amount, the outfit.
- Use “I” and the present tense. “I open the door to my apartment in Brooklyn,” not “I will have an apartment.”
- Write it as already true. Leave out want, will, someday and hope.
- Add something you could see. A place, a dress, a ring, a view.
Some general wishes turned into specific scenes:
| General wish | Specific scene |
|---|---|
| I want my SP to choose me | My SP and I kiss on the beach in Porto at sunset, and he tells me he has never been this happy. |
| I want a boyfriend who adores me | He wraps my scarf around my neck before we walk out into the snow in New York, and kisses my forehead. |
| I want lots of money | My millionaire SP sends me $20,000 every week, and I book us a suite in Lake Como. |
| I want my own place | I carry my coffee onto the balcony of my apartment in Brooklyn and watch the street wake up below. |
| I want my dream job | I work as a creative director at a fashion house in Paris, and my team loves the campaign I pitched. |
| I want my glow-up | I catch my reflection in a shop window in my new camel coat, my hair blown out, and I love what I see. |
(SP is short for “specific person”: the one person you want to be with.)
Write a few scenes for the same goal. You’ll use them to keep things fresh in step 3.
Step 2: See yourself in it
Now find or make a picture of your scene with your own face in it. This is what makes it feel real. A picture of a stranger in a beautiful kitchen is someone else’s life. A picture of you is yours.
There are three ways to do it, from least to most effort:
- Use a photo you already have. Pick the photo of you that’s closest to your scene. A photo of you at a café works for a Paris café scene. Close is enough. This is like the photo method, a popular way to manifest with a photo.
- Make a photo of your scene with your face in it. Use an AI tool like ChatGPT. Upload a clear photo of yourself and describe your scene in detail. For example: “Me on the beach in Porto at sunset, kissing my boyfriend, wearing a white linen dress.” Add a photo of your SP if they’re in the scene.
- Make a video of your scene with your face in it. Use an AI video platform like Higgsfield. This works best, because seeing yourself move feels so much more real than a still photo. It also takes the most effort: you make each clip, then put them together. A video like this, with words and music, is called a mind movie. Or let the Solulu app make it for you: describe your goals and upload a few everyday photos of yourself, like selfies. The app makes the whole video, with you in every scene.
Whichever you choose, set your favorite picture as your lock screen, so you see it all day.
Step 3: Watch it every day, and keep it fresh
Look at your scene twice a day:
- When you wake up, before you check anything else on your phone.
- Before you sleep, as the last thing you see.
Each time:
- Look at your picture or video for a minute or two.
- Close your eyes and imagine you’re there. What do you hear? What are you wearing? Who is next to you?
- Let yourself feel it: happy, calm, adored, proud. Feel it as if it’s happening right now.
Then keep it fresh. This part is not optional: the Solulu method only works if you refresh your pictures often. Every few days, swap in something new: a new picture of the same scene, a new angle, or the next moment in the same life. The dinner, then the drive home, then the trip you take together.
Why? Because when you see the exact same picture every day, your mind gets used to it, and the spark fades. That’s why so many methods feel magical for two weeks and then stop working. Something new wakes your mind back up, and the feeling comes back strong. You’re not changing your wish, just giving it fresh pictures.
Your first week
| Day | What to do | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Pick one goal. Write three scenes about it. | 15 minutes |
| Day 2 | Make a picture of you in your favorite scene. Set it as your lock screen. | 15 minutes |
| Days 3 and 4 | Watch it when you wake up and before you sleep. | A few minutes, twice a day |
| Day 5 | Make a fresh picture: your second scene, or a new angle of the first. | 10 minutes |
| Days 6 and 7 | Keep watching, morning and night. | A few minutes, twice a day |
When it feels hard
- “It feels fake.” Your scene is probably too general. Add details: where you are, what you’re wearing, what they say. Or pick a cozier, everyday moment from the same life, like making coffee together the morning after the proposal, with the ring on.
- “I can’t feel anything anymore.” Your picture has gone stale. Make a fresh one, or move to the next moment in your story.
- “I can’t picture things in my head.” That’s fine, you don’t need to. You’re looking at a real picture. Some people can’t picture things at all, which is called aphantasia. See manifesting with aphantasia.
- “I keep looking for signs it’s working.” Try to let that go. In your scene, you already have it, so there’s nothing to check. Let your life catch up.
- “I missed a few days.” Nothing is lost. Just watch your scene tonight.
- “Nothing has happened yet.” Keep going, and keep it fresh. Read why your manifestation isn’t working yet.
Keep living your normal life while you practice: work, friends, paying your bills. Manifesting goes alongside your life, not instead of it.
Going deeper
This part is for girls who already manifest and want to get more out of the method.
Watch yourself, then step inside
Some teachers say to imagine a scene through your own eyes. Others say to watch yourself, like in a movie. The Solulu method does both, in order. First you look at the picture and watch yourself living it. Then you close your eyes and see the moment through your own eyes, as if you’re really there.
The magic of the minutes before sleep
Neville taught that the sleepy, floaty feeling right before you fall asleep is when your mind is most open. He called it SATS, short for “state akin to sleep.” It’s the perfect moment for your scene. Watch it in bed, then keep replaying it in your mind as you drift off. See SATS: how to do it.
Why morning and night
Your mind is softest right after you wake up and right before you sleep, before the day’s noise gets in. And you wake up and go to bed every day, so you never have to find time for it.
Turning your scenes into a story
Keeping it fresh works best when your scenes tell a story. Start with one moment, then add the next: the first date, the trip, meeting their family, the apartment you share. Each new scene feels like the next chapter, so your mind stays excited about what’s coming.
If a scene ever makes you sad or anxious, skip to a different moment in the same life. A quiet, everyday moment is often easier to believe than a huge one.
More than one goal
Start with one goal. Once it feels natural, add a scene for a second one. Two or three goals with fresh pictures beat a long list you rush through.
Living as the girl in your scene
During the day, do one small thing she would do. Wear the coat. Answer the message calmly. Book the apartment viewing. This is living in the end: acting like it’s already true.
Using it with other methods
The Solulu method fits right in with methods you already love:
- Scripting: write a full page once a week, then pull out a fresh scene to watch. See the Solulu method vs scripting.
- SATS: watch your scene in bed, then replay it as you fall asleep. See the Solulu method vs SATS.
- The 369 method: swap counted lines for a scene you can actually see. See the Solulu method vs the 369 method.
- Vision boards: keep your board, but add pictures with you in them, and swap them often. See the Solulu method vs vision boards.
- The Aya method: listen to your Aya audio in the morning and watch your scene at night. See the Solulu method vs the Aya method.
Doing it by hand, or with the Solulu app
By hand, it’s free. Write your scenes and use one of the three ways in step 2 to put your face in them. Watch them every day, and make fresh ones every few days.
With the Solulu app, steps 2 and 3 are done for you. Solulu is the iPhone app we built after doing the method by hand. You describe the life you want and upload a few everyday photos of yourself. You can also add real photos of your SP, places, outfits, pets and things you want. The app turns them into mind movies with you in every scene, with affirmations and music.
The Solulu method only works if your pictures stay fresh, and that’s the hardest part to keep up by hand. The app keeps making new ones for you, so all you do is watch.
Questions
Is the Solulu method the same as the Law of Assumption?
It’s based on it. The Law of Assumption is the idea: what you believe and feel to be true becomes your life. The Solulu method is a simple daily way to live it.
Do I need the app?
No. Every step works by hand, with photos you already have or pictures you make with AI tools. The app makes the videos for you and keeps them fresh.
Can I use it to manifest a specific person?
Yes, it’s one of the best ways. A relationship is made of moments, and moments are easy to see. Write one hyper-specific scene of the two of you: where you are, what you’re doing, what they say.
How often should I change my pictures?
Every few days is a good rhythm. If a picture stops giving you that little flutter, it’s time for a fresh one.
How long does it take to work?
There’s no set time, and nobody can promise one. For some girls it shows up fast, and for others it takes longer. The part you control is showing up: your scene, morning and night, kept fresh.
