2. Allow all and any thoughts that are positive to be noted. 3. Again ask yourself the same question. Who am I? 4. Write down all the ideas, feelings, pictures, tunes, etc. The following are some examples for you, which are being preceded by a quick “note of awareness” -- to present a thing or two to look for in yourself to make the practices more effective: NOTE OF AWARENESS…LETS CONSIDER PUTTING THIS ALL THE WAY THROUGH What often happens when we engage in processes such as these (transformative practices that improve our lives) is that a positive intent will naturally bring up an “opposite” thought as a point of contrast. To offer an analogy, in the laws of physics it is known that: ‘For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.’ This is also true regarding some of the ways a human mind works. Therefore, when you begin using positive affirmations – making positive statements and setting positive intentions – do not be surprised to find that negative thoughts may form in your mind as well. In other words, it is not uncommon that when you focus on something positive, that your mind may go to a “counter” or opposite thought just as a matter of course. This is natural and can even be helpful, for “contrast” is a part of how we understand things. Simply, BE AWARE of why this happens, acknowledge the PURPOSE OF CONTRAST, and always keep COMING BACK to the positive affirmation! EXAMPLES OF POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS “I am available to more good than I’ve ever imagined to come forward in my life, and I’m not under any delusion that I know what that good is.” (Rev. Michael Bernard Beckwith) “I can do this” “I am a co-creator of positive energy.” “I am a channel for good to unfold in the world, both for myself and others.” “I am a gift, and everything about me was meant for constructive and loving use!” “The world was blessed the day that I was born; no one else can bring what I bring!” “The Universe creates through me; my personal ideas are instruments of evolution.” “What I desire for myself and all others is betterment, love, peace, truth, authentic relationships and personal power” My Personal Affirmation:_______________________________________________________ Now that you have created a personal affirmation, your next step is to say it every morning upon waking. Personally I like to say mine in the shower because that is usually where I can find some time alone. Wherever it works for you is when you should say it as long as it is in the morning. Keep track of how many times you say it. Practice it all day if you wish. The more comfortable you become with it the more possibility it holds for you and the more it becomes you. Speak it out loud, this is an important piece to note, you must take action. Imagination is a beautiful thing and “creativity is what you do with imagination” (Sir Ken). It is vital that you speak your desires out loud, that you put into action ideas that are emerging and awakening in you. It is in these actions that the Discovery of Your Gift begins to unfold. I have a few affirmations and I say at least one of them daily. I also notice that they change periodically, or I need to change them because I have changed. We are in a constant state of evolution and we can contribute to our greater good and a higher vibration for all who inhabit this planet by putting positive action and vibrations into the world and thus shaping it. ~ Shajen Joy Lichtenstein-Aziz, M.Ed., M.A. Award-Winning International Best-selling Author, Educator, Counselor Discover Yourself ~ It's Why I'm Here https://www.discoverthegift.com https://www.alivingcurriculum.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/shajen-cheyenne-joy-aziz-m-ed-m-a-35053715/ Discover The Gift - It's Why We're Here ~ Published in 28 countries and 26 languages Author and Co-creator WATCH THE MOVIE -> GAIA https://www.gaia.com/video/discover-gift AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/Discover-Gift-Shajen-Joy-Aziz http://amzn.to/1qCX2Qa |
