What if every setback was a setup for something greater? Gabrielle Bernstein was a stressed-out New Yorker until she traded fear for faith—and watched ‘coincidences’ transform her life. The Universe Has Your Back isn’t wishful thinking. It’s a proven path from anxiety to trust. One question shifts everything: ‘Do I want fear, or do I want love?’ Your choice. The universe is waiting.
Gabrielle Bernstein, a spiritual teacher and motivational speaker, shares her journey from anxiety and addiction to a life guided by trust, love, and divine guidance. She introduces the core idea: The universe is always conspiring in your favor—if you let it.
The universe operates on love, but fear blocks its flow.
Fear = Illusion (False Evidence Appearing Real).
Love = The only truth (alignment with divine guidance).
Prayer is asking for guidance; meditation is listening for the answer.
Simple practice: “How would love respond?”
Trying to control life = Resistance to divine flow.
Surrender mantra: “I release this to the care of the universe.”
Synchronicities are divine winks—confirmation you’re on the right path.
Example: Seeing repeated numbers (111, 444) as messages.
Holding grudges blocks miracles.
Ho’oponopono practice: “I’m sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you.”
What you appreciate, expands.
Daily gratitude lists shift energy from lack to abundance.
When you force outcomes, you block better ones.
Affirmation: “I allow miracles to unfold effortlessly.”
Your ego’s plan is limited; the universe’s plan is infinitely better.
Example: Losing a job that leads to a dream career.
Your peace changes the world.
Service mantra: “How can I be used for love today?”
