Take Time To Do Things You Enjoy Doing

Remez Sasson — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 14:40:09 +0000

Make a list of things you enjoy doing. This can be any simple activity, which you love doing, and that can be done in your daily life. Put in the list at least ten items, and then do something from this list every day. From time to time, as you discover more things that you like doing, add them to this list.

Some examples could be:

Taking a walk
Conversing with a friend that you like
Preparing a special dish
Eating a special meal
Reading a book
Taking a short nap at noon
Going to the movies
Meditation
Going to a lecture about a subject that you like
Eating out
Shopping
Painting
Playing with your kids
Walking on the beach
Swimming

Every day, take at least one item and do it. Get over laziness and procrastination. Don’t say that you don’t have time, because you do. Work and chores never end. You owe to yourself to do at least one thing you enjoy every day, even if it is only for a few minutes. This will bring joy, happiness, hope and good feeling into your life.

There is no limit to what you can put in the list, as long as you really like doing it, and it is within your possibilities. As to possibilities, quite often, we believe that we don’t have the time, cannot afford to do something, it takes too much time, there are more important things to do, etc, when in reality it is so simple, easy, enjoyable and within our immediate reach and possibility.

"I breathe transformation into every aspect of my life."

Greetings! Our theme is Transformation at DailyAffirm, http://dailyaffirm.com. These last days of the month we work with integrating and embodying transformation. Following today’s affirmation are comments about the affirmation, suggestions for your process, and information about related articles. See top tabs and navigation bar links for more information and resources.

About Today’s Affirmation
Your breath is always with you. You breathe when you talk, when you meditate, when you work, when you cry, when you play. You can empower your breath to draw clarity and peace to you. Breathing in and breathing out, you become more vibrant and balanced. You breathe in life and vitality, you breathe out dead cells and waste. Life contains all forms of transformation, including death. The more you can accept death as a natural part of life — as transformation — the more likely you are to be accepting of all faces and facets of life.

About Your Process
Today, let your breath assist you in integrating transformation and its many faces into your life. What do you want to breathe in; what do you want to breathe out? What do you want to receive; what do you want to release? As you come more fully into the realization of your wholeness, old paradigms die away. What is decaying today? What needs to die today? When you know what must die, consider your relationship to the dying thing and to the process of dying. Will you grieve the death? Rejoice for the thing that is dying? Applaud the life that has transformed? Ignore the whole situation? Or respond in some other way? You have many options. Choose. And choose again.

About Related Articles
We make available free to the Internet community many empowering articles, including the Marshall House Articles Section, the Empowering Personal Development Articles, the Voice of Jeanie Marshall Articles, and Jeanie’s articles at EzineArticles.com.

July 29, Positive Affirmation for Transformation

"Yes to Transformation! Yes, yes, yes."

About Today’s Affirmation
"Yes!" is such an affirmative word! Yes to life! Yes to love! Yes to transformation! You say "yes" with words, facial expressions, gestures, energy, and actions. You say "yes" with your clothes, your business cards, your food choices, and your homes. You say "yes" when you answer the telephone, greet people on the street, and meet new friends for the first time. You say "yes" to everything to which you give your attention. You say "yes" even when you use the word "no."

About Your Process
So, to what do you desire to say "yes"? The best way to say "no" to something you do not want is to say "yes" to what you do want. As you repeatedly acknowledge your preference for what you want (rather than what you don’t want), you will find that more and more of what you want comes to you for further refinement of choices. You still get to choose, but the Universe has the capacity to give you enormous variety. As you are learning to make choices, you will be aware of many things you do not want; as your consciousness lifts you become less aware of the unwanted things and choose from among a greater variety of wanted things. Yes!

"Strategies for the Highest Good" presents simple techniques for living in the consciousness of the highest good.
"Your Focus of Attention is Your Key to Happiness" helps you to clarify where you desire to put your attention — your energy — which is a creative force.

"I act with purposeful awareness of transformation."

Greetings! Our theme is Transformation at DailyAffirm, http://dailyaffirm.com. This fourth week of the month we work with acting and claiming transformation. Following today’s affirmation are comments about the affirmation, suggestions for your process, and information about related articles. See top tabs and navigation bar links for more information and resources.

About Today’s Affirmation
To welcome purposeful awareness into your life, you connect with the intention of your actions knowingly. This intention is a "place" in consciousness filled with the substance of love and light which is the wellspring of creation. It is this consciousness into which you dip when you create with high intention. You can use this substance of creation accidentally or naturally or purposefully. You get to choose. You get to choose with each act. A conscious, constant high intention feeds your every act, resulting in personal fulfillment and Divine realization.

About Your Process
Today, consider the extent to which you choose to be purposefully aware. Or identify a specific situation or habit or issue about which you choose to be purposefully aware. Watch yourself watching. Know and know that you know. It is time to fully claim transformation as a power in your life. Today, re-visit your over-arching intention for transformation as you bring to a close this week of working with acting/claiming affirmations.

"Moving Through Puddles" describes the "Puddle Theory of Personal Development" which helps those seeking enlightenment to move more easily through the cycles and changes of life.

About the Next Type of Affirmations
This is the last of the acting/claiming affirmations this month. For the next three days, we focus on integrating and embodying transformation. If you have been taking notes throughout the month while exploring transformation, you may want to review your notes during the next three days. Eject anything that does not fit; more fully integrate anything that you wish to keep. Experience transformation. Experience transformation transform.

Make this a purposeful day!

"I let every act be an act of transformation.
I intend to show up one hundred percent."

About Today’s Affirmation
Whoa! 100%! What a commitment! Think of what it would be like if you and everyone else in the world showed up 100%. The world would be transformed in an instant! To show up 100% requires living right now in the moment — not in the past, not in the future. No regrets about what has or has not been. No expectations or fears of what might or might not be. Living right now! Every act is an act of transformation. When you affirm this is so, you keep in the flow of life.

About Your Process
Consider if there is something from the past that holds your attention or keeps you from totally claiming your power. Perhaps an old pattern of behavior? An unresolved relationship? A disappointment? You cannot show up 100% if you give your attention to those old things. Consider if there is something about the future that keeps you from claiming your power now. Perhaps a goal that you think will bring you happiness when it is accomplished? A fear or doubt or longing? You cannot show up 100% in the present while you are giving your attention to concerns about the future. Quickly identify if you have responses to these questions, and then give your attention to what you want to experience now. All your experiences happen in the now, the ever-changing, ever-present now! Show up in its presence 100%!

"I draw a circle of transformation to establish my world of focus."

About Today’s Affirmation
A circle provides a container which helps you to define what you want to invite into your world; it also helps you to define your world. A circle of light composed of the energy of transformation can create a circle which is far more effective than a steel or brick wall. The substance you hold in your energy field is the material you use to create your experiences. If you are filled with anger, the circle will be composed of anger; if you are filled with joy, the circle will be composed of joy. Fear resonates with more fear; love resonates with more love; joy resonates with more joy. Your intention can evoke higher consciousness to create the perfect circle.

About Your Process
Are the circles you have drawn to focus your world attracting those things that you desire in your life? In considering this question, you may see clearly the methods you use that attract or oppose your life’s desires. You may find that you have established circles that keep out what you want rather than letting it in. For example, you want a loving relationship yet have an iron fence around you to keep you from getting intimate. If so, just change the iron fence to a circle of love. If you were in a consciousness other than love when creating a previous circle, this non-love circle can transform into a circle of the desired substance. Then you can attract and live your heart’s desires.

Make this a creative day!

"I manifest all things
in association with divine transformation acting through me."

About Today’s Affirmation
Today’s affirmation allows you to open still further to transformation of a divine nature. It is the movement of Spirit with which you want to live in harmony. To move just to move can sometimes be valuable; however, to move consciously with Spirit and to allow Spirit to move through you is empowering. When you create while being aware of spirit, you manifest your heart’s desires.

About Your Process
Consider one thing that you wish to manifest or that you are actively in the process of manifesting. After you have clearly identified this thing, step back from it. How do you perceive this thing? Look at it from a whole new perspective. How would Spirit see this thing? What would Spirit say about this creation? Now step into the thing. How do you perceive it? Repeat the process, noticing changes each time.

July 24, Positive Affirmation for Transformation

Jeanie — Sat, 24 Jul 2010 12:01:24 +0000

"I claim my transformed state of consciousness.
I claim my power."

About Today’s Affirmation
I find again and again that when folks claim that their state of consciousness has lifted, it lifts still further. Claiming a state of higher consciousness is a powerful act. Such a claim must be a conscious choice to walk with Spirit, with enhanced awareness of Spiritual values such as love and wisdom and freedom (to name only a few Spiritual values), and not as a claim made by an arrogant ego. Arrogance is not attractive nor uplifting. You must individually step into the awareness of your magnificence; you are also part of a collective, stepping into the awareness of the magnificence of the whole. As you lift, others lift; as others lift, you lift.

About Your Process
Today, look at your own style of claiming your power: Do you take it? Poke at it? Accept it grudgingly? Breathe it in effortlessly? Experience it and then brush it off as if it is not real? See it outside yourself? See it inside yourself? Perhaps your style is not mentioned in this list. If not, write your own description. The many situations in which you find yourself may call for different styles, so think about several situations as you work with this exercise. However, do not disempower yourself by believing the situation determines your style; instead, you determine your style allowing variables from inside and outside yourself to give you information. Then . . . claim your transformed state of consciousness. Claim your power.

"Empowerment at Work" defines "empowerment" (as I use the word) and describes empowered persons and empowered organizations.
"Trust: New Bottom Line" focuses on replacing trust in the visible with trust in the invisible to assist in moving to a new and more trusting paradigm.

About Guided Meditations
Experience Jeanie Marshall’s voice in empowering guided meditations. Her soothing voice prompts you to listen to your own inner wisdom. She guides with words, yet it is her voice that makes these guided meditations such a powerful relaxation technique. Guided meditation is one empowerment practice that you can use on its own or to enhance other strategies. You’ll feel a sense of empowerment, a greater awareness of well-being, and a deep relaxation.

Make this a magnificent day!

"As I act,
I know that I am transforming in every cell of my existence."

About Today’s Affirmation
On the surface, this affirmation may seem rather benign, especially for an "acting/claiming" affirmation. However, the realization that you are constantly changing helps you to not get stuck in patterns or believe that you are unchangeable. When you feel that you are not making progress, this affirmation assists you in realizing that you are not really stuck, even when you appear to be. Everything is always changing, including every cell in every part of your life, in all life. This affirmation awakens your consciousness as you act; it helps you to be more conscious that you are conscious.

About Your Process
Take a look at a part of your life that appears not to be changing — something that feels stagnant or blocked. Perhaps this is something about which you feel hopeless or frustrated or just mildly irritated. As you identify this subject, relax and open without any pressure to do anything right now. Notice. Feel the energy, feel the feelings. Describe as clearly as possible the attributes of this situation. Now, shift your attention to something that you believe is moving freely and effortlessly. This may be a healthy relationship or a rewarding job or a little piece of your life or a memory of a past event. As you identify this second subject, relax and open without any expectation to do anything right now. Notice. Feel the energy, feel the feelings. Describe as clearly as possible the attributes of this second subject. Now, transfer the energy and the feelings of the second subject to the first one. Say today’s affirmation again.

"Trust: New Bottom Line" focuses on replacing trust in the visible with trust in the invisible to assist in moving to a new and more trusting paradigm.
"Your Focus of Attention is Your Key to Happiness" helps you to clarify where you desire to put your attention — your energy — which is a creative force.
"Moving Through Puddles" describes the "Puddle Theory of Personal Development" which helps those seeking enlightenment to move more easily through the cycles and changes of life.

"Transformation energizes my actions, propelling me on my path."

About Today’s Affirmation
Gasoline/petrol energizes automobiles and other vehicles; Spirit moving into form (trans-form-action) energizes your actions. When you take care of your cars, you find and use the products and services and practices that are most appropriate so that you can have dependable transportation. So, too, it is important to seek out the purity of Spirit and other substances to propel your life. The culture supports using toxins to move people (caffeine, drugs, etc.), when all you truly need is Spirit to guide you to proper nutrients and practices. Clients who have used recreational drugs in the past often tell me that the meditations I lead activate a grander "high" than they ever experienced with drugs — and, of course, without the negative aftereffects. It is empowering to be propelled by the purity of Spirit.

About Your Process
If you are not currently practicing meditation on a daily basis, I suggest that you start. Start where you are now. If you currently meditate once a week, increase to three times a week. If you currently meditate three times a week, increase to every day, etc. Meditation allows you to realize your oneness with the divine, to accept the purity of Spirit. Hundreds of techniques work. You only need one that works for you long enough to know that you do not need any technique at all. Select strategies that do not hurt your vehicle — not just the one with four wheels, but your own physical body.

About Meditate Now
I have developed a program that supports meditators to develop and maintain a regular meditation practice. In is called Meditate Now: 21 Days to Meditate Regularly. This Free MiniCourse & Ezine encourages you to develop your practice of meditating regularly so that you experience greater calmness, relaxation, mental clarity, general well being. Of course, you have to sit down and do it. While anyone is welcome to subscribe, it is designed for those who already know how to meditate.

Make this a dancing day!
