Welcome to 2016! New Years Day is always exciting because it is a new opportunity to start over and do all the things you’ve been meaning to. A new year is a clean slate to challenge ourselves to become more fully activated in our visions for our lives. Resolutions typically assume that our best behavior will somehow not waiver and protect us from falling off “the path.” And then anywhere between two days and three weeks into this new year, oops….Mission Resolution aborted.
What happens to us by mid-February? Why do we always seem to need yet another Monday to start over? Could it be our foundation isn’t built in a way to sustain our resolutions? You can’t plant seeds in concrete because they’ll never grow. This holds true for us as well. We need to till and fertilize the soil of our character to have the beauty we imagine begin to blossom in our lives. We don’t need resolutions; we need reprogramming. And affirmations and meditation are wonderful vantage points that when practiced consistently, naturally repel the inauthentic and attract the magic we so crave to live with on a moment to moment basis. So this year let’s resolve to “BE” in lieu of striving for something outside of us.
Here are some affirmations to repeat to yourself daily. You can also create your own, using the present tense “I am” to create the character necessary for you to become all you are called to be!
“I am calm. I trust in Divine Order to magnetize my Highest Good and greatest joy to me in every way and every day.”
“I love my body. It is perfect and is my ally. I naturally crave that which is nourishing to my mind, body and soul.”
“I am abundant. The river of blessings finds a happy pathway into my life and I flow with it, trusting more is always on its way.”
“I am perfectly healthy and completely healed.”
“I forgive easily and effortlessly. I release regret and allow it to be transformed into Wisdom.”
