Nourishing Affirmations! Caress Your Mind with Lovely Thoughts.
What you THINK is what you GET! Change your thinking, change your life! To downsize your hips, start with your head! I found these affirmations as I was cleaning up my meditation room. I had used these ideas extensively in my 1993 diary (about 20 years ago) to help me change my way of thinking. It was FUN to discover these self-statements that I had used over and over again to help me change my deep-seated self hatred, depression, and low self-esteem. I was going to counseling during this time and found it to be invaluable. Visit: Therapeutic Help for The Journey. I worked with these affirmations for over a year. Over time, my life completely was TRANSFORMED! I'm SO glad that I took the time to do this. A KEY practice is to slow down every day for personal quiet time--time to reflect on your life's journey. These were the "seeds" that I planted in my garden of well-being that I had watered with my loving self-care!

If you feel really stuck and overwhelmed, perhaps visit Don't Worry About It! Affirmations help us to establish the belief system we want. Meditate daily on these affirmations, once in the morning and once in the evening, and observe the changes that unfold in your life. Writing them in a journal, or posting them on "sticky notes" at various places around the house can also be very helpful.

I write myself love notes. Taken from my diary:
I wrote an apology to myself in my diary underneath the drawing shown above: "Sometimes, I really seem to wish that you were different--smarter, more talented, had different skills, a cuter body, more strength, etc., etc., I apologize for not accepting you...loving you...as you are...now, my precious Bobbie!" Thought by thought, word by word, act by act, I lift myself to a new level of life!
Please remember, to downsize your hips, start with your head! I have explored many paths of learning to help me transform my life. One of them is the Science of Mind groups and magazine. Explore: http://www.scienceofmind.com/ I found their magazines to be deeply uplifting and helpful to me. Below I share some wisdom from their March 1993 issue and their "Affirmations for March": The Science of Mind teaches that we are surrounded by an infinite Intelligence which operates creatively upon our beliefs. By letting go of destructive beliefs and adopting constructive ones, we cooperate with the infinite Intelligence in making our lives fulfilling and successful. My Body radiates wholeness: My body is the temple of the living Spirit. Therefore, it is filled with wholeness. Every muscle, organ, nerve and cell is in perfect alignment with the function it was designed to perform. I am revitalized and energized. I radiate wholeness and well-being now. God works through me: Today I am alert to the ways God expresses in my life. Everything I do is filled with harmony and balance as I let God's joy propel me through every action of this day. My day goes smoothly and joyously. I am thankful! Food is my friend: Everything I eat turns to health and beauty. I am open to receive the good that food has for me. I eat only what my body needs to be healthy. There is no hunger or feeling of being deprived, as my every need is satisfied by Spirit. Change comes easily to me: I accept new, fulfilling experiences each day as I turn to infinite Intelligence for guidance. I know that in order for things to be different, something must change. I accept change easily and flow with it as I welcome expanded good into my life. I am grateful.
This is really a wonderful book! You are the only person you can ever know intimately. You are the one with whom you must live eternally. This book is about you. It is for you and to you! I found this book to be SO helpful in turning around my extremely negative thinking, depressive thoughts, and pessimistic thinking patterns that I had fallen into in 1990. It is a goldmine of positive and empowering thoughts, a perfect antidote to entertainment reading blahs. There is poetry, wisdom, and deep insights on every page. If you are interested in non-religious interpretations of the teachings of Jesus, or just wanting to expand your mastery over life, this book will suffuse you with inspiration and speak directly to your soul. You can order it on www.Amazon.com An excerpt (pages 37 - 38): "Life lies open to me, rich, full and abundant. It is important that you maintain a strict censorship over your thinking. Just as you watch your garden that foreign seeds shall not fall into it, producing a growth of undesirable plants, so you must refuse entrance to any thoughts you do not wish to see manifested in your life. Learn to convert thought patterns of sickness, unhappiness, fear and doubt into patterns which conform to spiritual perfection. Make a picture of yourself as happy and successful. Refuse to entertain contrary ideas." Guard well this garden of your mind. It is God's garden of your soul. It is your Garden of Eden wherin may grow your fondest desires and hopes, blossoming into fulfillment. Or, if your permit, the weeds of destruction, fear and doubt, will choke out the beauty of hope until despair alone remains. Watch carefully, then, this garden of your soul. Plant there only seeds of happiness, of joy, of peace and of good will. It may be necessary to cultivate your garden to uproot the weeds and straighten out the rows, planting new seeds--new ideas, broader visions and deeper realizations of life. New aspirations must be bedded here, fertilized with the fervor of hope, the conviction of faith, the beauty of wholeness and the quietness of peace. Watch your garden carefully, guard it patiently, waiting for a new harvest--for you shall reap what you have sown. Plant love in your garden. Kindness and sympathy flow from the heart of love, and human goodness...Go often into your garden. God Himself will go forth anew into creation through you.

“I celebrate myself, and sing
myself, Walt Whitman, from Song of Myself Sondra Ray explains in her book, The Only Diet There Is: If we forgive the past, drop negative thoughts and resentments, stop being victims—we drop our fat as well. She asserts that as we release our negativity, we release excess weight in our minds, hearts, and in our bodies. Practice a diet of self-love
Fast from negative thoughts Sondra Ray’s steps are as follows: Diet from negative thinking, feast on affirmations, use visualizations, give up anger, write down your feelings, bless your food, love your body, nurture yourself, turn it all over to God, and give thanks to God.
I used this book extensively and found all of the exercises and affirmations to be quite helpful. Copyright date is 1981 by Celestial Arts Publishers.
