"I open to allow hope to operate in my life."
… Greetings! Our theme is Hope at DailyAffirm, http://www.DailyAffirm.com. This second week of the month we work with receiving and accepting hope. Following today’s affirmation are comments about the affirmation and suggestions for your process. See top tabs and navigation bar links for more information and resources.
About Today’s Affirmation
This is a simple, quiet affirmation. It suggests you open. Open to allow. Open to allow hope to operate. Sometimes you might forget to let life happen. Society tends to condition you to make things happen, even force things to happen your way. For such an approach, rewards come in school, business, and society at large. I am not ridiculing accomplishments — I even have a few of my own. Most people have mastered the doing; now it is time to move to a higher level and master the being. Then you can integrate the two. (You can do and do and fall into the do-do. Or you can do and be and sing that old song, Do-be-do-be-do.)
About Your Process
As you begin the second week of the month, notice that the purpose of the affirmations has changed. The focus on releasing and cleansing is now redirected to receiving and accepting. The affirmations now direct your attention to filling up rather than emptying out. One of the simple principles I teach in my energetic work is using the breath for these two dynamics: Breathe in Light. … Breathe out heaviness. Breathe in Clarity. … Breathe out confusion. Breathe in peace. … Breathe out anything you do not need or want. With this concept "programmed" into your breath you are constantly replenishing and clearing, both consciously and unconsciously.
About the Book of the Month Recommendation
Here is the book recommendation for January’s theme of "Hope." I have found the series of books known as "The Chronicles of Narnia" to be a collection of magically hope-filled stories written for children and enjoyed by people of all ages. I have recently seen the current feature film; I recommend the book only. Please read my book comments.
