We sometimes hear people talking about affirmations (positive statements said out loud or to oneself) as if they are a substitute for normal thinking that you might choose throughout the day. At Gratitude Planet we endorse the use of affirming statements, but primarily when used the following way:
1. Choose a statement that feels good to you, but not one that feels untrue to you. It needs to stretch your beliefs a little, but not be so far out of your own realm of possibility that you contradict the statement immediately in your mind.
2. Repeat the affirmation out loud or to yourself as many times as you can while staying focused on the good feeling it creates.
3. Allow the affirmation to attract another affirmation. It will pop into your mind effortlessly, and you will know you have attracted a good one if it feels just as good as the first, or even better.
4. Repeat the new affirmation, and see where it leads you.
5. Have fun and enjoy the energy these positive statements can bring to you. They can jump-start your day, or they can energize you when you have a disconnected moment. One word of caution, however: if you can’t find a thought or statement that feels good, just search your consciousness for one that feels a little better. In very little time you can attract thoughts that feel good, and you are back on track to allowing the life you deserve and desire. In other words, don’t repeat an affirmation that is out of your vibrational range because it will only reinforce your belief that you are far from where you need to be.
These affirmations are like thought vitamins. Use them daily for your morning boost, and then ride their energy all day. If you need more, pop a few more. They are safe, non-toxic, healthy, and free for the taking! Who doesn’t want that?
Here are some examples of affirmations, just in case you want to get started and can’t think of any right away:
- I relax and allow everything I want to flow to me in this moment.
- I love my body and trust its wisdom.
- I am always in the right place at the right time.
- My life is unfolding perfectly, one step at a time.
- My body always finds its perfect balance. I am healthy, fit, and flexible.
- I allow the well-being of the Universe to cleanse my cells with pure, positive energy.
Be Well, and enjoy this beautiful day! Chris, GP Staff
