Greetings in the 1st week of July with the theme of Transformation at DailyAffirm at http://dailyaffirm.wordpress.com. I like to think of “transformation” as a big word for big change. We are always changing. Without change, we cannot exist. In this message, I will give you an overview of the next seven days of the DailyAffirm Process. The sidebars provide you with additional information. Read the messages Day by Day or, simply check in when the spirit moves you. If you prefer to receive the daily messages by email, please subscribe to our email alert list (check the top tabs or the navigation bar).
About the Over-arching Intention
If you have not already done so, please identify your over-arching intention for Transformation. That is, develop a statement that guides you in the exploration and embodiment of transformation. Intention is the energy or consciousness from which actions emerge. If you are uncertain how to write this intention, just make an attempt. Keep it simple. You have 31 days to work with the intention and the theme, so let your statement change and deepen. Here are a few suggestions for statements of intention about the theme of Transformation: *To be in the flow of life. *To drop the old for the new gracefully. *To change/transform from the inside out. *To transform my human consciousness to my higher-self consciousness.
About Releasing/Cleansing Affirmations and Transformation
This is a week for cleansing and releasing anything that interferes with transformation or change. As a longtime consultant for managing change in many settings, I have observed an incredibly creative variety of methods people employ to resist change. Some methods are obvious to all, others are not so obvious. To be authentic to your values, you must sometimes resist certain change — an act that helps you become clearer about your own true values or desires. However, to resist change just because it is change thwarts the creative process. And to resist changing yourself when you want your circumstances to improve is absurd. Everything on the earth plane changes, everything.
About your Process in the First Week
I encourage you to recognize your own style for resisting change. Do you get sick? Do you procrastinate? Do you distract yourself? Do you become creative in other areas? Do you sleep? Do you toss and turn instead of sleeping? Do you get grumpy? Please be kind to yourself as you ask these questions. These questions are designed to open you to possibilities and to a greater awareness of your natural processes rather than to fix blame or imply you are wrong. Be in the flow, as you transform your thinking about transformation.
I recommend that you write this week’s affirmations, if such a process appeals to you. I’ve developed a process which is described in the book, "Affirmations: A Pathway to Transformation" and in the article entitled, "Writing Affirmations for Empowerment." This article is posted at one of my Web site along with 40 others, http://www.mhmail.com and then click on Articles by Jeanie.
About the Affirmations in the First Week
If I were to write the definitive affirmation for the week to represent releasing and cleansing for Transformation it would be “I release the fear of change.” It is the fear about change (or the fear about not changing) that is debilitating, rather than the change itself.
Make this a transformative week!
