Hope all is going well for all of you!
Today we talking about the card Affirmations again. The card's main message is "To lift up your thoughts and energy, and to attract what you desire, use positive affirmations."
Okay, so we have established what affirmations are and how really important they are to this whole process called life. I have shared affirmations that I have seen and I have written a few myself, they are really merely vehicles for the true feeling that we are trying to convey. But what comes next? And what do we do if they do not seem to be working?
Affirmations are best used when they deliver laser sharp focus on a particular situation. Sure we can use general ones like "I am receiving more abundance" or "My life is filled with love." These are both great things to draw to you. But abundance for instance might take form in more flowers in your front yard. They would be beautiful, but if you are looking for a job, you need a little more than flowers. So being a little more specific could really enhance the situation, like using "I am receiving abundance through job offers." The difference might be subtle, but way more powerful.
We have now established what the affirmations should be and we can chant them over and over to ourselves, but that is not the most effective use of our energies either. We have to be focused, really really focused!
I was listening to a seminar by Abraham-Hicks this morning. And one of the main points was holding our focus on our affirmations and what we desire. It is their theory that we cannot manifest our desires if we are not, even for a brief time, "living" our end result and we cannot do that if we do not focus.
So here is the exercise. First start with the affirmation, for example "I am receiving abundance through job offers" and hold that thought for 17 seconds. At 18 seconds picture yourself doing the ideal job and hold that for 17 more seconds. At 35 seconds while picturing your self doing the ideal job, start to feel the emotion that doing that job might bring like joy and hold that for 17 more seconds. At 52 seconds add the final step to it all fishing the scenario in your mind. The sense of relief that you have a steady paycheck now would be a good example and hold that for the final 17 seconds. There you have it you have emotionally tied the affirmation to you and now it is just more than words.
From here you will go on to say the affirmation daily or whenever you wish and the true impact of the whole thing will always be with you. This is really powerful stuff!
I hope that our further exploration will further enhance everyone's experience!
Have a great day sprinkled with Fairy Dust!
