My goal is to have this post as a guide for positive affirmations for better health and well-being. Using the law of attraction, I know that the stream of abundance and wellness is always flowing to me, and I can access it by:

1.  RELAXING into the goodness and wonderfulness of each moment of my life (using the Silva Method, closing my eyes, focusing on appreciation or love, etc…)

2.  Keeping my main focus on wellness, abundance, and good things in life, like my 10 favorite things, and things I am eager about.  When I think of myself and others, I think of the positive aspects of our relationship, or I think only of the successes.  I try to think of most everything in my life as “easy peasy”, but especially with health…this is the simplest and fasted way to easy peasy health.

3.  If negative thoughts come in, I can pivot away from them quickly and easily by remembering that if I’m out of balance, I can easily be in balance again just by caring enough about myself to make my good feelings a priority.  Let go of anything in the past that is bothering you, be it people or situations–replaying them will only delay good things from happening NOW.

I love taking some time out of each day to write down the things I am thankful for, and I usually begin each day this way.  It helps me to focus my thoughts and therefore my feelings into exactly what I want, which sets up a day that is worth having.  I spend enough time in appreciation and love–and when I am in those emotions, I can’t be in any other emotions–to “pre-pave” my day for good things to happen.  The more time I spend in appreciation and love, the more fun I’m having within my day; You just can’t be miserable when you are thinking of good things mostly.

As for health, it is nice to set up a mental exercise of being thankful for the water you drink and the food you eat, and blessing these things before you eat them.  You are changing the vibration of the food when you bless it.  Be thankful for the exercise you can do, be thankful for the body parts that do work right, be thankful for the sunlight, the air, the rain, flowers, trees, etc…Be thankful for your health and your healing, and make this your mantra if you need healing.  And all along the way, realize that you are successful in making your most wonderful life happen, so celebrate your small successes often.

Remember, “I am strong, I am beautiful, I have value, I am health.”  What you appreciate grows, or appreciates.  So, appreciate yourself most of all.

Real healing requires focus of thought, which can be practiced frequently throughout the day, through writing especially.  I just write down the many things that make me happy or the health that I do have and am thankful for, and my health automatically improves over time.

So, these are some general ideas, but for specific ideas on each health situation, I will also offer positive affirmations for many health problems, like type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, acne, and lots of other health issues that I personally have dealt with.  The trick is to NOT get specific and start negative momentum, when you can just be general and enjoy moment to moment…as best as you can.  The problems that you have DO have solutions, but if you talk to everyone you know about how bad some part of your body hurts, that pain gets worse.  If you speak about overall health, overall happiness, and find and keep that feeling often, the healing will happen naturally and with ease.

Much love, appreciation and healing!

Weight Loss Affirmations

Would using weight loss affirmations make your dream of being slim a reality?  Take some time to make your emotional journey into your belief system about your weight (be honest) and then change your belief system.  You may or may not need to eat differently though!

Ok, now I have to be honest.  I’ve never struggled with weight problems.  I grew up with a fast metabolism and was always super slim.  And then, I had kids.  After my first at age 28, I lost most of the 58 pounds I’d gained being pregnant, but I couldn’t get below 130 pounds back to my pre-pregnancy weight of 112 (I’m only 5’2″).  I set my goal of losing weight, but I didn’t focus on how much, I just wanted to feel better about myself, so I kept on exercising and eating slightly differently until I found the right mix for me.

I mentally just kept on telling myself that I would find the solution though!  And, that I would know what to do as I kept on asking for the answers, and that the “signs” would be there. And, so that is what turned out to be true for me.  I became vegetarian at the time, not to lose weight, but just to try a healthier lifestyle, and that really helped me to lose weight. NOT because it’s a truth that a vegetarian somehow eats less calories than a meat eater, but ONLY because this was the solution that somehow fit the bill for my request to lose the weight.

What I realize about changing anything about self, is that we have to love and appreciate ourselves all the time, instead of constantly judging ourselves.  Haven’t you had enough of feeling like you aren’t good enough?  This is especially true with weight, because so many people feel lousy when they set a goal and then the goal isn’t reached.  Instead of using judgmental phrases like, “I’m not fitting in my clothes,” “I feel fat,” “I don’t have any energy because I ate too much,” “I can’t seem to lose any weight,” “I used to be fit,” it would be far better to just happily accept yourself where you are at.  You might be comforted to know you are in exactly the right place right now, and that you are asking for a change in yourself because you feel ready NOW.  Just keep enjoying your right now as much as you can, because this will give you the power to make your future good.

Using any of these phrases means that you have given up your power, so it is time to take your power back.  Every single thing that happens to us is a direct reflection of the thoughts we are thinking about ourselves, and therefore our belief systems.  Get rid of your mental clutter by replacing the power sucking phrases with good positive affirmations about weight loss.  When you have a real confidence in general, you wouldn’t even need to try to lose weight, it would just happen as a result of your confidence.

Here are what I view as the best weight loss affirmations that are general and likely to make you feel good all the time:

  • I love knowing that every day, in every way, I am getting better and better.
  • I love being passionate about a few important things, and I pursue these hobbies with zest.
  • I love expanding my consciousness so that I feel connected to my source often.
  • I love appreciating myself and all of my successes.
  • I love knowing that I make a difference in the world.
  • I appreciate my family, friends, ancestors, coworkers, community for all the joy they bring my life.
  • I am getting more and more thrilled to begin each day, and get inspired to do something fun.
  • I am energetic and I love feeling healthy.
  • I have vitality, focus, and clarity on all topics.
  • I focus my attention so that I feel good about myself regularly and consistently.

Remember the times that you have felt thin, and try to find the feelings that went with it. Eventually, you will find that the good feelings you have about yourself will be more than 50% of the time, and that is when you can start losing weight effectively, as long as you let go of resistant thoughts about it.

And, here are a few more specific ones that may also help with weight loss, but only if it feels good saying them:

  • I feel slim when I drink water.  (I have heard Esther Hicks say that all people should drink enormous amounts of water, because it is life-giving, but that we should also bless our food and drink to give it a vibration of appreciation and love.  This gives us better health.)
  • I love the feeling of shopping for clothes that I feel good in.
  • I know that as I get inspired to eat, I am being guided to which foods are right for me.
  • I am thrilled that I have this opportunity to fulfill my wishes.
  • I know that anything I believe, I can achieve; I am expecting great things from myself and know that they are coming.

And, of course, you can do anything you create in your mind, as long as you really believe it’s possible for you.  I believe in you, and want you to know that there is an endless stream of abundance that is flowing all the time to you; when you realize lots of positive things about yourself, you are able to tap into this stream.  Cheers to your abundance, health, and happiness!  Much love.
