The Art of Manifestation Through Affirmation
SOME KEYS TO AFFIRMATION AND MANIFESTATION
We start by being unconsciously controlled by our mind.
Then we begin to notice it, and listen to the things it says.
We, in contact with parts of our higher self, realize that we don’t want to believe everything our mind says – that some of it is simply not true.
And therefore, we realize, we are not our mind! It is separate from who ‘we’ are.
This is the point where you have a choice to begin to argue with the mind, to dominate it, by telling it to stop, that’s not true, this is true, etc. The mind doesn’t converse, it just records everything it has ever heard. Instead of fighting with the mind, we can befriend it, and begin feeding it new messages. Resistance creates push back, compassion or non-reaction allows for transformation.
We must always speak to the mind in present tense, and phrasing things as what we DO want, or how we WANT things to be. Just like a child, running through the grocery store. We yell DON’T RUN! And the child hears RUN! We learn to say, please WALK.
Ex: I want to quit smoking. THE MIND ONLY HEARS ‘SMOKING’, and reinforces that. Instead, I have only healthy habits. I drawn only clean and nourishing air into my lungs. THE MIND REINFORCES THAT.
The mind is here to do our bidding. Speak to it carefully!
To become inspired to create affirmations, at first, it can be easiest to stop and notice when you are experiencing something you DON’T want, or that isn’t enjoyable. A pattern, perhaps, that you notice yourself in. Further below, you will find a list of Limiting Beliefs to help you access or identify some of your own.
Get clear on that noticing. You are having a shitty morning. Say it as a statement in your head, out loud, or on paper. “I feel frustrated. I didn’t wake up early enough and now I am rushing.”
Break it down, because this can become several affirmations!
I feel frustrated.
I didn’t wake up early enough.
I am rushing.
These can all EASILY turn into stories like: I am a lazy loser. I never plan ahead. There is something wrong with me. Etc.
Now, how do you WANT to feel, how do you want things to be?
Instead of feeling frustrated,
I am calm and at peace no matter the circumstance
Instead of I didn’t wake up early enough,
I allow myself plenty of time to prepare for the day.
Instead of I am rushing,
I take my time, because there is always more than enough.
These are your affirmations. This is an act of creation. The definition of creation is to bring things to life, into existence. You create it with your intention, and your words, and it is done! This is law.
You do not usually use them when you are in the moment of frustration. When you are already having an experience, the best choice is to fully experience it, without judgement, and accept it wholly. Really be kind, and tell yourself that you see the frustrated part, you see the part that wants to blame itself, you see the anxious part. Make friends with yourself and your human reactions. If you resist, it pushes harder to be seen. Just acknowledge your experience. This is revolutionary, and will take time to practice. You don't need to master this before beginning to change your script.
You use affirmations when you are feeling generally un-triggered. In the morning, at lunch, before bed, whenever you can create the daily habit of declaring your highest reality.
We must speak it as it is real NOW. Not that it 'will be' or 'can be' or 'should be', but that it IS. That being said, you most likely don’t believe your affirmations are entirely true, and that's ok for now. You may even have a visceral reaction of rejection, sadness, or disgust when you hear them or read them. All the more reason to reinforce them. This is one cue that it’s a worthy new truth to explore.
HOWEVER, it still must be speakable. There is a gradient of reality, of truths. If you feel ugly and undesirable, maybe you cannot speak to yourself ‘I am attractive and desired’. But maybe you can speak to yourself ‘I find beauty in my appearance one day at a time’. Do you feel the difference? Be gentle with your mind, and your ego, as they have been trying to protect you. Start just a step ahead of where you are, especially if you have a habit of self-sabotage.
You will need practice noticing your mind. It is the first step to reprogramming the scrip that runs in the background of your reality, that dictates what you see and how your life unfolds. If you don’t like your current script, and you set the intention to notice your thoughts instead of automatically believing them, then it will begin to happen! The magic of consciousness unfolding.
