Affirmations 

Introduction written by Joshua David Stone (Soul Psychology, Chapter 9)

“An affirmation is in reality an attitude. Every thought you think, be it positive or negative, is an affirmation. Every word you speak is an affirmation. Every action you take is an affirmation. This is true because everything stems from your thoughts. Your thoughts create your reality.”

How to Reprogram the Subconscious Mind:

Affirmations are statements specifically designed to program a certain feeling or behavior into your subconscious mind, bringing you back into your higher self and into your power. We can protect our inner world by pushing negative thoughts out of our mind; much like not watering a plant, when a thought gets no energy, it withers and it dies. 

Write down three affirmations and post them around your home. Each time you see them, read them out loud to yourself. The repetitive use of positive thoughts and affirmations waters the new seed-thought in the soil of your subconscious mind, and new life begins to grow. 

With the next new moon, plant seeds and repeat these affirmations to yourself. Place your physical seeds somewhere with partial shade and near your home, watering them lightly every day and watching them sprout. After the seedlings grow roots, transplant them into your garden or a larger pot.
