Affirmation Secrets

Picking an affirmation for yourself is easy. Making it part of your soul is a different story! My dear friend, Pierre Bensusan, has permitted me to use his track called ‘Sentimentales Pyromaniaques’ from the album 'Altiplanos'.

Let's begin our day with a little bit of happy talk and meditation in this short yet impactful podcast designed to infuse a little bit of positivity into each moment of every day. Let's get in the flow. You know, I always have a story. And you probably know that this stories usually have a lesson to them because it's kind of like how I don't know was I raised that way. I don't even know. So here's my latest story and lesson. I was looking for a good affirmation for myself recently. And I realized so I'm sitting there like looking online, Just forgetting ideas, Because that's how I kind of roll. And so I would read an affirmation or get an idea into my head about, You know, An affirmation of some sort. And I would say to myself, Really? Oh my gosh, How like ridiculous is that? So the example, I guess, For example, I would like this amazing affirmation of I allow myself to be who I am. So I started thinking to myself, Do I really allow myself to be who I am in this world? And then all of a sudden, The answer came to me sometimes. And I'm like, Well, Well, You know, Well, Then why am I saying that affirmation? You know what I mean? So that's where my head was going. But then I started thinking about affirmations in general. And this is where I think the secret lies to it all. I thought to myself, You know, It's not about believing it the affirmation fully in your conscious mind, Right? It is about possibility. The possibility of that affirmation. And if we find an affirmation that we resonate with as a possibility, Then saying it over and over again in our minds won't necessarily be like, I'm lying, But it'll be a possibility, Which then, As you say it over and over again, Becomes reality. Right? So that I mean, In a sense, It's kind of like manifesting with the law of attraction, Right? Because if you say it over and over again, All of that kind of stuff. So saying it over and over again doesn't necessarily make like you don't have to necessarily believe it. But if you keep saying it, And it's a possibility, Then it will turn around and become your reality. Now that I can sit with better than just say this affirmation, You know, Like, If somebody says to me here, Just say that affirmation 25 times today, I'll be like, Well, You know, Really? Because you know, God forbid, I should just do stuff. I have to think things through. That's kind of who I am. Right? So then I started thinking, Right, This is the way like life is, Right? Because now think this through with me. So we say this, Like affirmation of possibility to ourselves. But it also works if we say bad things to ourselves, Negative things to ourselves. This is where it gets really fascinating. Because if you look in the mirror, And you say to yourself, Oh, My God, I look terrible today, If you say yourself to yourself, That sentence enough, You're gonna start believing it. If you say to yourself, I'm not good enough. If you say that even subconsciously, You're gonna start believing it. So then I thought to myself, Well, Then, You know, We need to flood our, Our consciousness with possibility. That's what I love. That's, That's what I love, Love, Love about it all. So what is an affirmation for you that doesn't really feel like it's reality, But it's a possibility? So for me, I found one that resonates, Right? And it makes me feel and this is the key part here. It makes me feel kind of uncomfortable. Right? But it feels like a possibility. Okay, And here's what it is. In the face of my fear, I am courageous with possibility. Now that I obviously I made that up. Well, I shouldn't say obviously, It's probably somewhere. But I made that one up because that one gets me because it makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable. If I say it over and over again, In the face of my fear, I am courageous with possibility. That gets me. So what is yours? Okay, So what I have done is I have created a few that might make you feel a little bit uncomfortable, But it's just a few for you to choose to think about. So if you keep saying them over and over again to yourself, See where it takes you if you feel a little bit uncomfortable with it. Okay, Okay, So here's a couple. I allow myself to be who I am fully and completely. Seriously. Seriously, I allow myself to be who I am fully and completely love that right. Okay, So here's another one. I accept myself for who I am flaws and all. Right? Now that's the fun part. It may, It may kind of go YEKS, You know, In your brain. So is that the one that makes you feel just a little bit uncomfortable to the point where it's a possibility? Love that. The spirit gives me the coolest things to think about. Okay, So the next one that I just try it on for today, Right? I make a difference in this world. That one just. I make a difference in this world. Can you imagine saying that instead of I don't matter, Like you know, Some people have those things in your head, Things in your head. Those thoughts where you say to yourself, I don't matter. But what if you combat it combated? What if you combat that with I make a difference in this world? Or I am more capable than I realize. How cool is that one, Right? I am more capable than I realize. Now, The bottom line is, This has to tweak for you. And that's like the cool thing. Everybody's different. Everybody has different thoughts that go in their mind 24 seven, Blah, Blah, Blah. Right? Okay. And then the last one that I'm going to talk about before we meditate is I am enough. I am enough. Love that. I am enough. Right? So for some people, It doesn't mean anything to for somebody else. It may bring tears. All right, So let's meditate on this, Even just for a few minutes, Right? All right, So let's get ourselves comfortable. Maybe one of those affirmations just crept into your heart. Or maybe it gave you an idea of something that is for you. So let's take that, Right? So get ourselves comfortable. Close your eyes. And let's take a nice deep breath in, Breathing in the positive affirmations, Right? Any positive affirmation, Just breathe in positivity. Fully into your lungs and release. Perfect. Breathing in positivity and breathing out fear. So let's take our affirmation that we've chosen for ourselves and repeat it to yourself over and over. Just slowly, As we sit in the stillness for a few minutes, Do it slowly and keep repeating it to yourself. I will keep the time. Let's begin. Million whats so complexhappy.

I like her voice, sense of humor, and sincerity. My affirmation for today is, “I am healed, whole, and healthy, I am well. I am well. All is well.” I said this on the in-breath. As she suggested, I released fear on the out-breath. Absolutely lovely!
