So why should you make short, focused affirmations a part of your everyday life? What’s in for you?Here’s one important reality: Words matter. Words you say in mind, also called self-talk, and words you say out loud are all affirmations. Every statement you make about yourself, about other people, and circumstances in your life are affirmations. Your subconscious mind is always listening so it’s vital to choose positive words that empower your health, wealth, relationships and emotional wellbeing.Let’s begin with learning to feel words in your body. Why is this important? Because words you speak have energy signatures in your body. Recognizing those signatures, how words feel, is the first step to harnessing the energy of words to enhance wellbeing and achieve your chosen goals. Once you learn how positive, empowering words feel in comparison to disempowering words, you’re far more likely to bring positive, empowering words into your internal self-talk and in your conversations with other people, including your loved ones.Start by assuming a comfortable position. If you’re sitting, sit upright in a comfortable way, head up, ears over shoulders, shoulders over hips. If you can do so safety, close your eyes. Tune into your body. Notice any areas of tension. Notice how your body feels. Get an overall sense of your current stress level in this moment.Allow a comfortable in-breath for 4 or 5 seconds and then allow a comfortable out-breath for an additional 5 or 6 seconds. Repeat the in and out breath pattern two more times.Place your hand(s) to your heart. Either right hand or left hand touching heart area is fine. Really feel the physical connection of your hand(s) to the chest area over your heart. Allow two more in and out-breaths.Say the word, “Gentle” out loud. As you again allow two more gentle in and out-breaths, tune into your body. Notice where you are feeling the word, “Gentle”. The felt sense may be subtle, but you will be drawn to a specific area in your body where the energy of the word “Gentle” resonates.Breathe gently and repeat the word, “Gentle” again. Notice how the felt sense increases. Repeat a third time and again tune into your body. Where are you sensing the energy of the word, “Gentle”? Allow your awareness to encompass your entire body. Does your body feel calmer, more relaxed? Is there a sense of “gentleness” in mind and body?If you’re not sure whether you sense where the energy is resonating, repeat the process again.After you’re comfortable with this word energy process, it’s time for you to choose a word and feel the energy of that chosen word. To select your own word, sit comfortably and ask yourself, “How do I choose to feel at this moment?” “What energy form am I most in need of?” For our purposes, words are energy forms when you feel the words in your body. Sit quietly and wait for your subconscious mind to serve up a selected word representing the energy form your subconscious mind has selected. While there could be thousands of options, at this early stage of word energy awareness, words such as, “calm”, “confident”, “relaxed”, “competent”, “courages”, or “peaceful” are common first selections. Allow your subconscious to serve up your word. Trust what comes up even if it sounds unusual.Repeat the same process you used for the word, “Gentle”, only now you’ll be repeating your selected word. Prepare, breathe, place hand(s) to heart, and notice where you feel the energy of your chosen word just as you did with the word, “Gentle”. I’ll let the music play for 30 seconds while you experience the energy of your chosen word.Congratulations! You now are the proud owner of a new skill. Anytime you’re feeling stress, need more physical energy, need to feel more confident, or need any other energy resource, you need only ask the question, “How do I choose to feel right now, in this moment?”.Remember, this is only the beginning. Over the coming episodes you’re going to experience the power of short, focused affirmations you can apply to countless areas of your life.Subscribe for future episodes where you get your podcasts and on this podcast’s website, https://www.PositiveWordAffirmations.com.If you would like to comment about this episode or otherwise would like to reach me, email [email protected].
