Coming Soon.
Hi AnnieB, Thanks for being a friend. I am sooo in need of this kind of support. Years ago,I used positive affirmations with amazing results. Then somehow I was overwhelmed by life events and sent me down a long long path of negativity and depression. I am beginning again! The last two days have been really challenging, but this time I am not getting caught up in it.
Welcome back to affirmations. You have gone through a lot but I want to commend you for moving forward in a positive direction. Good for you! There will be little set backs but I believe that you can have amazing results from the recent work you are doing :).
To put a picture on your profile you need to pay a fee to the website. You get a whole host of other benefits, as well. Worth considering.
In response to susie1960’s comment: Hi Suzie! I’m still very new to using positive affirmations - started in late November 2009, while reading Louise Hay’s Heal Your Life book. It took a while to get going, but NOW I do them every day and I AM starting to see and feel results. I’m also reading about many other metaphysical topics and my mind is opening to myriads of possibilities. The most dramatic change I am noticing is that when I put on that smile in the morning (no matter how lousy I think I’m feeling and yes, sometimes it takes a GREAT effort), people around me smile back! My colleagues, my friends even my sister and my teenaged son (usually) respond positively. This creates a clear space for good energy to flow back and forth. I believe it is well worth the effort. I also understand depression. There have been so many days when I would wake up in the morning feeling so down that I just wished I could disappear from the face of the earth. As morbid as this may seem, each time I read an obituary, I secretly thought that I would rather be in that person’s place. Sometimes it would take a good 45 minutes in the morning of just reading over affirmations or saying them over and over again, by rote, before I could get myself out of bed to rush off to work.
Over this relatively short period of time, doing affirmations has gotten easier for me. Yes, I do experience setbacks, but I feel that I’ve reached a point of no return. I cannot imagine my life without them now. Have faith that the process works. This community is here to support you. You are a beautiful, capable and worthwhile human being. Many blessings to you. Anna
