By now we’ve pretty much all heard about using “affirmations”
to attempt to change ourselves and our lives.
But how many of us realize we’re actually affirming things
to ourselves, to others, to God, to the universe all the time?
“I don’t feel good.”
“I never have enough money.”
“Something was bound to happen.”
“You’re going to drive your mother crazy.”
“I shouldn’t eat this.”
“This will make me fat.”
“You never listen to me.”
Are you starting to realize some things you may be “affirming”
daily without realizing it?
Here’s an intriguing thought from Carol Tuttle on money –
“Money obeys us in that whatever we believe about money is
what we will receive in our experience with money.”
Not the way most of us usually think about money.
But what if it’s true?
What if this were also true of your body and your health?
Of your relationships with others?
This doesn’t have to contradict your belief in God or your
particular religious faith, but rather points to the power
you have — the power God has given you — to allow or
disallow something to be true in your own experience.
So what are you affirming…what are you choosing…today?
Here’s to some door-opening “discoveries” & new, purposefully
chosen experiences for you in the coming year!

When I say an affirmation that feels a bit “out there,” that small voice says, “Oh, right……sure……” I learned a little trick. If “I” can’t believe that statement is true, I change the affirmation to (for example), “My higher self knows that I am whole, complete and perfect, right here and right now.” It is difficult to refute what “my higher self” knows to be true.
