The stress-seeking or stress-phobic mind that’s filled with angry and unhappy thoughts is at odds with the rest of the body. The body desires health, but the mind keeps sending out disease-causing chemicals that attack the “doctor within” and destroy health.
The cure begins by taking the steps I’ve described to rid your mind of the negative thoughts that have been making you sick. Haying done that, it’s time to meld the mind and body into a single entity under the direction of your “doctor within,” dedicated to making you healthy and happy.
How do you meld mind and body? Begin with affirmations.
Saying It Makes It So
Affirmations are strong, positive thoughts that you deliberately place in your mind. An affirmation is a way of directing your subconscious to help you achieve your goals. Positive, affirmative thoughts eliminate the negative notions that turn your mind against your body.
Affirmations are short statements you say in your head or out loud, affirming that your life is worthwhile and that you a success. With affirmations the future is already here: you tell yourself that you already have what you want.
1. Affirmations are verbal pictures of the events you want to occur.
2. Affirmations are spoken instructions to your subconscious mind.
3. Affirmations declare that you believe in yourself.
4. Affirmations affirm that what you want to happen is already happening.
5. Affirmations assert only the positive.
6. Affirmations steer your thoughts in the right direction.
7. Affirmations are a method of predisposing yourself to health and success.-
Do affirmations work? That all depends on you.
Thoughts pass through our mind constantly. Most of the time we’re not even aware of them. What kind of person we are depends on what sort of thoughts we hold in our minds. If we entertain greedy and evil thoughts, we will undoubtedly become greedy and evil. If we think of ourselves as sickly, we will become ill. If we meditate upon hate and revenge, we will spend our lives hateful and unhappy. But if our minds are blessed with happy, positive thoughts, we are well along the road to health and happiness.
Affirmations are strong tools for shaping your beliefs and thoughts, for making you into the person you want to be. They are a powerful medicine for mind and body.
