Affirmations

Affirmations are a powerful place to start when we are learning to flip the unhealthy script that we play on repeat in our own minds. Interrupting those patterned thoughts is the first step to reclaiming our mindset. Some spiritual teachings indicate that it takes 68 seconds of repetitive thought to begin to generate new neurological pathways in the brain. Once a pathway is laid, each time we revisit the thought or affirmation the more powerful of a connection we create and after time can become our new anchor point of reality.

Affirmations are an introduction to powerful incantations. I love how Tony Robbins speaks of inCANtations as opposed to inCANTations. It reminds us that as we enter into intentional mind rewiring that we must use powerful language, in the present and positive tense. No wishing, no hoping, no deserving…spoken as if it is already ours, here and now and we are reaping the rewards already.

Some of the most powerful affirmations we can use begin with I AM – for whatever follows, IS. Here are a few examples that may resonate with you:

I AM a powerful creator of joy in my life. 

I AM a magnet for deep and meaningful connections that are centred in love.

I AM  a masterful cultivator of peace and ease in all things.

Affirmations are always most powerful and we are more inclined to use them when we use our own words/language that evokes powerful, positive feelings within.

This week we are encouraged to watch our thoughts, to intentionally lay positive, powerful and present pathways in our minds so that we can move forward fearlessly on our journey. If you would like support in flipping your script, please reach out as we have lots of tools to help you find or write your own incantation, affirmations, and manifestos. It is a powerful practice and one that takes discipline AND it is one that generates profound change.  In the words of Lao Tzu “If you correct your mind, the rest of your life will fall into place.”

Let’s be brave and confront our own thoughts this week as we courageously step into our inner power.
