Discover the Power of Positive Affirmations

About this ebook
Take a Course and use this workbook, which includes both theory and many practical exercises, to learn the skills to change your life. The first step to affirming yourself is to shake things up a bit and take notice of the negative programming you have accepted from others and have internalised (commonly from childhood). You can realise that the source of these voices is not within you, is not your truth and you can release any ideas of who you have been told you are. The truth of yourself then unfolds and you blossom, in your own way, like a beautiful and unique flower. Out of the depths of yourself will emerge new thoughts, new voices, which can then flow through open channels, becoming life’s sacred vessel. You are claiming your birth right when you have the skill to let go of old programming and become your true self.

About the Author
Introduction
Love After Love
The time will come when,
With elation,
You will greet yourself arriving
At your own door, in your own mirror,
And each will smile at the other’s welcome,
And say, sit here, Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was yourself.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
To itself, to the stranger who has loved you
All your life, whom you ignored
For another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
The photographs, the desperate notes,
Peel your image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.
—Derek Walcott
Poems can be life affirming, and Love After Love is a beautiful example. Remembering how to affirm life is the focus of this book. So what does this mean?
Webster’s (1983) defines affirmation as "The act of affirming and
To assert as valid or confirmed." Affirm is defined as "validate, confirm, and
to state positively."
Why would we have to affirm life? Are we not validated by our existence? Why do poems such as the one above fill us with elation, yet elation tinged with desire, longing and sadness? When and where did we become disconnected from the constant flow of vital life force energy, flowing from all around and within us, which is our birthright, our knowing of ourselves as sacred life vessels?
The answers to these questions are the foundation for beginning to explore those voices and energies within us which are blocking the flow of life force energy, leaving us disconnected, depressed, confused, unsure, and unable to express our deepest truth and live meaningful and self-realised lives. "Affirmation of life is the
spiritual act by which man ceases to live unreflectively and begins to devote himself to his life with reverence in order to raise it to its true value. To affirm life is to deepen, to make more inward, and to exalt the will to live." - Albert Schwietzer
The first step to affirming ourselves is to shake things up a bit and take notice of the negative programming we accept from others and internalise. We can realise that the source of these voices is not within us, is not our truth, and we can release any ideas of who we have been told we are. The truth of ourselves then unfolds and we blossom, in our own way, like a beautiful and unique flower. Out of the depths of ourselves emerge new thoughts, new voices, which flow through open channels, becoming life’s sacred vessel. We are claiming our birth right when we let go of old programming and become our true selves.
How did it feel to read those last few lines? Notice the positive, active language. Notice the shift in energy. We are doing this. We are blossoming, in this moment, together. We are.
Now, we
