Welcome to Insight Timer.
I'm Kenneth Suarez,
And I've been a teacher here since 2016.
One of the things that I love to create and share are affirmations.
Because words have tremendous power.
The words we think,
Consciously or unconsciously,
Affect how we feel,
It affects our health,
It affects the choices we make and the actions we take.
It doesn't matter.
If the words we think taken from the external world are positive or negative.
The subconscious mind is a fruitful garden.
Words are like seeds.
When you bring seeds into that garden and nurture them,
Water them,
They will grow.
When we repeat words over and over again over time,
The seeds get water and sunlight and they will grow.
If you bring tomato seeds to your garden,
You will get tomato seeds.
You want an apple tree or you want a banana tree.
Nope,
If you bring tomato seeds you will get tomatoes.
Positive or negative,
It doesn't matter.
So when you listen to affirmations here on Insight Timer,
You consciously choose which seeds you want to sow.
And grow.
Nice,
Right?
Damn.
When you take action that are aligned with them.
The words,
The affirmations that you listen to.
You will start to embody it.
You will start to integrate the changes because listening to affirmations is all about making positive changes.
That's why you want to listen to them.
So by choosing to listen to affirmations,
That is you saying,
I am open to believing in this.
This is what I want for myself.
I want those seeds to grow in the garden of my mind.
So how do we listen to affirmations for them to benefit us the most?
Some people prefer meditating and it's a good state to be in.
The mind is usually more open in that state.
However,
You don't need to sit in a lotus position for hours and they will sink deeper in.
It's not like that.
And how about not having any rules?
How about just creating your own routines while you're working out,
While you're doing yoga,
While doing chores,
While brushing your teeth,
While making breakfast,
While going for a walk?
I mean,
It's time effective too.
You can listen to them whenever you want to listen to them.
Repetition over time is what makes them grow.
And here on Insight Timer,
You can choose the seeds you want to grow in your garden.
