Affirmations We have been programmed from birth by the thoughts and emotions of the people who raised us and cared for us. We have inherited our belief system, the way we think, feel, and respond to our environment through this programming. Affirmations are short, declarative sentences, designed to reprogram your thoughts about the way life is experienced. Affirmations are most powerful when spoken and written with strong emotion. Success in any area of our lives begins with thoughts. Thoughts control our actions. Actions soon become habits. Habits shape lives. Emerson, Troward, and Holmes, all Early pioneers of the new thought movement in the 20th Century articulated this principle, although it is really nothing new. Thousands of years earlier Solomon wrote: “Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts,” and later Jesus said, “It is done unto you as you believe.” Affirmative Prayer Affirmative Prayer or “Spiritual Mind Treatment” as it is called in The Science of Mind faith is a tried and true method for creating a mental equivalent for a desired physical manifestation. Think of it this way: For every physical object in the universe, there is a mental equivalent. A chair was just an idea about sitting prior to becoming a real place to sit. A chair is not a random creation, but rather a design that first had to exist in a mental state before it could exist in a physical one. A Science of Mind Treatment is a process which moves us mentally from idea to action, and knowing that once the idea has been initiated, the creative stuff of the universe works in a focused and consistent manner to make the invisible (idea) real. There are 5 steps used in the Treatments: Recognition, Unity, Realization, Thanksgiving, and Release. Recognition is knowing that God or Spirit (substitute the word you are most comfortable with) is all there is. The power that fuels the universe, fuels every living and growing being there is, and we are one with that power. Unity then affirms our oneness with God, and with the power of God. If God is all there is then God and I are one. This Realization leads us to understand that as a child of God, creator of all, we are heir to all creation. Abundance and prosperity, good health, wisdom, and joy are our birthright. For this we give our deepest Thanksgiving, for the knowing and the ability of spirit. We are grateful to receive this awesome gift of spirit. Finally, we Release our word to the Law, or principles which govern creation, knowing that the subjective part of creation, the part that always says yes, has no choice but to respond. It is the nature of the subjective mind to create whatever thoughts are impressed upon it, much the way the soil grows the seeds that are planted in it. In the soil of your mind there exists a garden, and in your life you bring forth the harvest each and every day. The thoughts and ideas you think are the seeds, which create your reality, and your experiences are the fruit of your own imagination. The soil is impersonal, and impartial. It always says yes. If you plant a tomato seed, the soil does not judge it unworthy and grow a cantaloupe instead. The soil responds yes. The thoughts you think and the beliefs you hold are the conscious and unconscious seeds you plant in your own life. Once you understand this, you can consciously direct the flow of good into your life by choosing the thoughts you think. This idea may seem strange at first, and your thoughts may seem to be beyond your control, but truly, your life is a product of the thoughts you choose to think. If you change your thinking, you can change your life. The soil contains the thoughts and ideas of generations since the beginning of time. Jung called this the collective unconscious. Metaphysicians call this Race Mind or Race Consciousness. Reflect for a moment on what the soil of your own mind might then contain. Television and the media have also contributed a great deal to this Race consciousness. The seeds of love have been sown alongside generations of misery and pain. The soil always says yes, even to the unconscious and misguided use of the law. The sun shines on the roses and the weeds equally. Preparation then involves clearing the ground of these weed thoughts, and clearing your mind of the old ideas that planted them. (reprinted with permission from Planting the Moneytree © 1999-2002)
	Change Your Thinking . . . Change Your Life! I first discovered the power of affirmations through a little book by Louise Hay called, You Can Heal Your Life. I discovered the most basic concepts underlying new thought, and began a transformative journey which has ultimately led me to the creation of this website. This tiny volume introduced me to the idea that if I changed my thinking, I could change my life. I began to understand that the power of life was in this moment, and in this moment, I held a belief about my life that was based on my past experiences. Everything I felt about my life came from a thought about it, and a thought could be changed. Louise told me that it did not matter what I used to think about my life, only what I thought here in the present moment. Using affirmations, or brief positive statements about these new thought choices I was making in my life, I began to get to my core belief system. I discovered my beliefs about who I was, what I deserved in life, were the very things that were creating my future. I began to love myself, and I became capable of providing for myself the kind of life I wanted to live.
	Life Design Statements: Creating Affirmations That Work Rev. Mary Murray Shelton has put together an Action Guide which explains the process of creating affirmations that are personal Life Design Statements, a carefully crafted affirmations designed to include juicy words and ideas that appeal to you personally. Used consistently in a repeated pattern for the purpose of reprogramming your own belief system toward a chosen consciousness. The Repetition works with the brain to create a solid internal program--of your choosing-- to replace or enhance your old programming. The use of color, emotion, and variation of form repeatedly draws your attention back to the basic message and reinforces it as important over time, while keeping the process interesting and engaging. Rev. Mary's website, revmary.com, includes a wealth of information, and a "Nourishing Thought for the Day."
