About Acting/Claiming Affirmations and Love
The affirmations focus on acting in partnership with love this week. Include love in the planning and expectancy of your actions (future), in the experience of your actions (present), and in the reflection of our completed actions (past). Every time you speak, make a claim about who you are or what you think or feel. This week, become more aware than ever that these claims are made in association with love. Each word is an action; each thought is creative and therefore can be considered an action. Move through the week fueled by the energy of love.
About your Process in the Fourth Week
How are you going to claim love or self-love this week? What is the most important action you can take to demonstrate to yourself that you love yourself or you love someone or something else? How can you show that you love your computer? your car? the clerk in the supermarket? the parking lot attendant? Your action may be as simple as a smile, as gentle as a kind look, or as engaging as a playful statement. Consider for a moment, how the whole world would be transformed if you and everyone else in the world smiled a genuine smile of unconditional love at everyone else. Wow! What a picture.
About the Affirmations in the Fourth Week
If I were to select the definitive affirmation for the week to represent being and intending for love, it would be the affirmation for February 26: “I draw a circle of love and encase myself in it.” I find the image of a “circle of love” very powerful.
About the Integrating/Embodying Affirmation and Love
It has been eight years since the Integrating/Embodying Affirmation for love has had its own separate day. Love is a powerful energy to integrate. Happy Leap Year Day.
About your Process with this Integrating/Embodying Affirmation
How are you going to integrate love into your life? You may decide to do it by reflecting on the month’s processes and ideas. Or, you may decide to mediate on love without any content. Or, you may notice how you have changed this month. Or, you may notice that other things in your life have changed. Has your concept of love expanded?
Make this a lovely week!
