Cedarfire: Tools For Your Mind, Soul and Spirit
You Are What You Think

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(First published at http://www.cedarfire.com/article.shtml)
A Sage once said, "Man is what he thinks about all day long." How true that is. When we
think about how much we're struggling, we experience more struggle. When we
contemplate how bad we feel, we get to feel worse. When we focus on our problems, we
perpetuate them.
"But," you say, "it's in my face all day long. How do I not think about them?" That's the
challenge. To find a way to change your focus.
When we keep our attention on one aspect of our lives, generally what we don't want, we
are impressing our inner mind with that very thing. Our inner mind can't reason. It gets
the impression and creates the outer result from that imprint, just like a rubber stamp. Our
creativity carves a star in a block of wood, and then our inner mind stamps it on the fabric
of our lives.
"Energy flows where attention goes." We follow wherever our vision looks. In baseball,
the batter keeps his eye on the ball so he can hit it. A basketball player wouldn't dream of
looking at the stands when he was planning to sink the ball in the basket. The same is true
of our lives.
So how do you change your focus from your problem to the solution? It takes discipline
and persistence. Realize that the problem is simply an outdated creation of yours, an
empty shell of an earlier choice. Make a new decision of what you want. Write it down.
Cut out pictures of it. Feel yourself having it. Whenever you think of the original
problem, substitute what you now want. "That was then, this is now." The old will begin
to crumble way, like old parchment.
No matter how long it takes, keep at it. You've had the problem a while. It may take a
few months to build the new structure. It may form slowly, or suddenly arrive. Don't fall
back into the old vision, that will delay the new shape. The most important thing, though,
is that you are in the process of creating it, whether you see immediate results or not.
In this way, your life is becoming what you consciously think about all day long. So
remember to focus on what you want, and keep your eye on the ball.

Life, Have It Your Way

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(first published at http://www.cedarfire.com/article16.shtml)
When we have a single goal in mind, and thats all we contemplate, Life brings it to us.
Its not magical, mystical or strange. Its just the way life works. We move toward it as if
we cant fail. By doing so, all doors open up for us. We meet someone who has the
information we need, or who knows someone who knows someone. Life moves in to
meet us and we have coincidences happen.
However, if we get distracted from our goal, changing our mind, swinging from one
decision to another, we receive an average of our ideas. If we fear we may not achieve
our goal, thats what were focusing on, therefore thats exactly what happens. In these
cases, instead of our vision being on what we want, our attention is on what we dont
want. We attract whatever we contemplate most.
Focus is focus, whether its on what we want or what we dont want. Life doesnt care.
Energy flows in the direction of where we have our attention.
There is no big or small to Life. The same rule applies with both large and small goals. If
you go into Burger King and order it your way but keep changing your order, what
happens? First, the person behind the counter gets impatient. Then, they ask you to let the
person behind you order. And you cant ask the order taker to Decide for me, because
they dont know what you want. Eventually, as you keep vacillating, the restaurant will
close and you go hungry.
In that case, you know where the responsibility for your dilemma lies. You didnt make
up your mind, and give your order, and let them prepare it. The same is true with
anything else. You must choose what you want, focus on it, and let the creative grill of
your subconscious mind cook it up for you, your way. But you have to stay true to your
decision, and not alter your order.
This is why its so important to write down your goals. One day you might want to weigh
120 pounds, and the next day, you figure 130 pounds would suit you just fine. As long as
you keep changing your mind as to what you want, the energy cant flow into your goal.
You might release a couple of pounds, but how can it deliver something you havent
really decided on? Your subconscious mind needs to have a clear goal.
When you have something unwanted in your life, take time to check out what youve
been focusing on. What things have you been saying or thinking? Are you currently
experiencing what you fear? Then thats what youve created. Are you angry at the

5
conditions of your life? Youve been feeding the situation with your anger and created
more of it.
Write down what it is you truly want, and look at what youve written at least twice a
day. If you change your mind, then change what youve written. This way you dont give
your subconscious conflicting messages. Your creative mind then has something concrete
it can work with. Your subconscious mind is just like Burger King. It awaits your
decisions, and will create just what youve asked for. All you need to do is settle on your
choice, and let it alone. Your creative mind does the rest.

Identify With Your Good

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(first published at http://www.cedarfire.com/article25-identify.shtml)
I once heard someone say, "If you're not successful, then you're really working hard at
not being successful." Success, health, happiness, harmonious relationships, creativity are
natural states. The Universe always pours all that you need for good into your life. If
you're not experiencing what you desire, your mind is actively restricting it. The way you
feel towards your life, the beliefs based on those feelings, flow forth in statements that
limit the expression of your natural resource of good.
"I am a failure," "I'm sick," "I can't do it," "I don't belong here." These are feelings that
you have based on past experiences. However, when you identify with these statements,
you're telling the Universe that this is what you continue to want. Whatever you identify
with becomes your self-image. Your experience of life has to be consistent with your
image of yourself. A person who wants to be a success, but feels that they can't do
anything right, will sabotage achieving their desires. When you want something better in
your life, and it conflicts with your self-image, you undermine your ability to have it.
Whatever you focus on, that's what you're telling your Mind that you want. Watch your
words. You are literally instructing the Universe what to give you. The silent messages
you say to yourself about yourself, the things you say to others, these reinforce the
outdated picture you have of yourself. As a child, you may have been told that you
wouldn't amount to anything. That was a lie. You are an expression of the Universe, and
the Universe has all the power within It to create galaxies. The lie was to keep you from
remembering that you have the power within you.
One of my clients was a beautiful woman, inside and out. When she was young, her
mother convinced her that she was ugly and no one would ever love her. My client
changed her self-image when she realized the untruth of that statement, and she began to
attract people who valued and appreciated her.
Many times people will fight to hold onto their old self-concept, even when they want
something better. Jerry was an artist whose sculptures were critically acclaimed.
However, he wasn't making much money from them, and wanted to be more prosperous.
He identified with being a "starving artist," and was disdainful of those artists who were
financially successful. Because he refused to release his anger at other creatives, and
continued to visualize himself as poor, he never realized the wealth that the Universe was
urging on him. You can't have more good without opening the floodgates within, and
discharging self-limitations.

7
What are you identifying with? How do you see yourself? Do you believe that you're a
person who deserves good? What ideas are you acting on that counter what you desire?
Notice the "I am" statements you make. They will show you what your self-image is.
You can change those declarations by simply stating the opposite every time you catch
yourself thinking something negative. Eventually, the feelings behind the old ideas will
transform, because you're telling them the truth about yourself. Imagine that you have
achieved what you want. Now imagine how you'd act, what you'd say to yourself, how
you'd dress, what kind of people you'd associate with. What else would be changed in
your life?
By aligning your words and ideas with that of a successful person, you can then begin to
identify with the good the Universe has been pouring into your life. The floodgates will
open, and your life will be overflowing with the goodness that is your natural state.

Create Space For Your Good

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(first published at http://www.cedarfire.com/article36-sacrifice.shtml)
Many years ago, a friend stated that to receive more good, a person always had to give
something up. I objected to that idea. "If I want more prosperity, or health," I said, "I'm
simply accepting more of that. I'm not giving anything up." He explained that if I wanted
more prosperity, I had to let go of my attachment to a feeling of lack.
It took awhile, but I finally got it. He was right. It's a variation of a scientific law. Two
objects (or two different conditions) cannot occupy the same space at the same time. One
has to move aside to make space for the other. If an orange is rolled against an apple, the
apple has to move to make room for the orange.
Whenever anyone accepts more good into their life, they have to release the old situation.
While most of us think we'd do so in a heartbeat, if there's no change for the better,
something else is going on. There must be something in the current circumstance that
makes us hang onto it.
For any expanded good that comes into our lives, something that's taking up its space
must go to make room for it. There's always a choice to be made. If you want a new pair
of slippers, you need to throw out the old ratty pair. They may be comfortable, but
they've outlived their usefulness. Trying to hold onto both pairs will simply clutter up
your closet.
Sometimes it's old roles that have to be released. For instance, moving into management
can be very threatening when you've always hidden in the back of the room. If a woman
has this opportunity, she may have to release an old belief that a woman's place is to be
passive. In any case, a person has to let go of any attachment to remaining invisible to
achieve the goal of being a leader.
Standards you grew up with may need to be re-examined and re-adjusted. If you want to
be prosperous, and your family struggled to make ends meet, you may have a belief that
life is a struggle. To accept the idea of abundance easily flowing to you, the old attitude
of struggle must be sacrificed.
To accept better health, a person has to let go of the reason for their ill health in the first
place. It may be a covert need for attention, or to get out of doing something undesirable,
or simply to get some time off. There may need to be changes in lifestyle, like quitting
smoking or getting more exercise.

9
A person who wants a better job may need to relocate. There is the choice to be made.
Stay in the familiar, or change locations. Either is fine, as long as you accept your choice.
Some people will decide to remain in their hometown rather than move elsewhere.
They've weighed the pros and cons of what kind of life they want, and choose to remain
where they are.
For the most part, we tend to think about what we lack. Not what we want. In any area of
your life, what is it that you want? What might be taking up its space right now? What
old idea are you hanging onto? What still has you attached to your current situation?
What feels threatening about your goal? What are you willing to give up to receive your
goal?
These are all questions to ask yourself and meditate on, when you want some change
that's not happening. There's always a reason. All you need to do is discover what it is
that's taking up its space and let go of it to create a vacuum for the new.
Affirmation
I know that the Universe wants for me what I want for myself. Therefore, the only one
who is restricting it is me. I now recognize what it is about the old condition that I've
been holding onto. It's now safe for me to let it go. I am willing to create space for a
greater good to come into my life.

Creating A Treasure Map To Achieve Your Desires

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(first published at http://www.cedarfire.com/article50-treasuremap.shtml)
Sages say, "A picture is worth a thousand words." This is true because images are the
way the subconscious mind processes information. A word or verbal phrase translates
into images in the inner mind. Think of the difference between reading "Harry Potter and
the Chamber of Secrets" versus watching the movie. Which one was more powerful and
evoked more emotions? Most likely it was the movie. The words on the page had to be
transformed into mental pictures, but the movie was in the very language of the
subconscious, thus grabbed it more directly.
This is why so many goal setting techniques suggest using visualization and cutting out
pictures of what you want to help to manifest your desires. We co-create our world by the
images we hold in our minds. Looking at pictures of our goals helps to keep our minds
focused on what we want. There are lots of different terms for this technique. Master
Mind designates it "image book pages," Joseph Murphy and Mary Katherine MacDougall
call it "treasure mapping," and Catherine Ponder's phrase for it is a "wheel of fortune."
No matter what it's called the basic technique is the same. A person cuts out and collects
pictures from magazines that represent what he/she wants. The action of finding the
pictures, cutting them out, then pasting them onto paper helps to convince the
subconscious that you really do want this goal. The pictures may simply evoke the
feeling of the desired result, such as a sunset for peace, or a lit candle for enlightenment,
or specific pictures of a cruise, car, income or job. The idea is to find pictures that speak
to you. For a job, you might find pictures of someone doing that specific job, or a picture
that symbolizes it to you.
Underneath the pictures, you write an affirmation that directs the mind. The affirmation
can be "I know that my Higher Mind wants this for me, and my creative mind finds the
best way for it to manifest" or "I now have a lavish income of X coming to me easily and
freely." Any statement that clarifies your goal and supports the belief that Spirit is
manifesting it now will work. This helps keep you aware that the Universe wants this for
you as much as you want it for yourself.
There are different ways to use the basic technique. For a single goal, such as a job,
relationship, travel, or new house or car, you can get a page of colored construction paper
or large posterboard and paste the pictures on it. Use a color that connects with you and
your goal. Such as green or gold for prosperity, blue or green for relationships or
relaxation, red or orange for a new position or some change in your life, purple or
lavender for spiritual growth. I had a friend who created a treasure map and placed it on
the inside of the door to her closet, where she saw it every day. You can also use a
11
corkboard or styrofoam to pin the pictures and affirmations to, and change them as you
choose.
For several different goals, you can get a posterboard and divide it into the areas of your
goals. You could segment it into four parts, such as: work, play, relationships, and health.
Then paste the pictures and write the affirmations as you would with a single sheet in
each area. At the center, you could have a picture and affirmation that recognizes that the
Universe is the Source of your good.
One of my early metaphysical teachers used a notebook for his treasure map. He was a
businessman and kept it in a drawer of his desk to look at several times a day and said
that all of the desires he put into it came to pass. You can take a folder with fasteners, like
you used in school, and put pictures and affirmations on sheets of unruled paper. Again,
each goal should have its own separate sheet of paper.
With a treasure map, you need to have it where you can look at it several times a day, but
where no one else can see it, such as a closet or drawer. This keeps it private, between
you and your Higher Self. If you have someone who will be completely supportive of
your goal, you can share it with them. Look at your map several times a day and each
time give thanks that the Universe and your creative mind has already given you what the
pictures represent. By giving your mind a picture of your desire, keeping your attention
focused on it, the Universe will find the perfect way to transport you to your destination.
Affirmation
I know that the Universe wants the best for me, the Highest Good of abundance, health,
harmony, ease and comfort. As I put the pictures of what I want into my mind, it powers
my Higher Mind to create a perfect outcome. I don't need to know how it will manifest.
My Higher Mind knows just the right way to deliver me to my desire. I give thanks,
knowing that the Universe has already granted me what I want.

Bless The Situation

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(first published at http://www.cedarfire.com/article53-blessing.shtml)
A few years ago, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. Since she had
emphysema and is on oxygen, I was concerned about her coming through the treatments.
I decided to transform my concern into an affirmation that something wonderful would
come out of this for her that would somehow improve her overall quality of life, but I had
no idea how that could possibly happen. She breezed through the surgery, with the
anesthesiologist saying her heart was strong. That was something good. The cancer was
small and hadn't spread. That also was something good.
As the health care workers were taking the CATScan to set her up for radiation, they
discovered that her thyroid, which was hyperactive, was compressing her windpipe to
less than 50% of normal. It was like she was breathing through a straw. That was
fantastic news, believe it or not. It meant that something could be done to improve her
breathing.
When something that looks "bad" happens, bless it and affirm that something wonderful
is going to come from it. People who have lost jobs have done this, and manifested a
better job. A relationship coming to an end can open a door to a better one. Choose not to
wallow in anxiety, worry, or concern about the possible negative consequences of the
"loss." Instead, concentrate on something better coming as a result of the event. By doing
so, you're actually giving your subconscious mind directions to actually find something
good.
Whatever you give your attention to is a command to the subconscious to manifest more
of that. As Universal Mind flows through your subconscious, this gives your creative
mind infinite knowledge and resources to discover something good. Don't try to figure
out how it could possibly happen, that's the function of your inner mind. And don't try to
determine what the benefit could be, that's also the job for your subconscious.
There obviously was a reason for the unpleasant experience. Maybe you outgrew that job,
but were reluctant to let it go. Every so-called "negative" condition is created of the same
Universal energy that "positive" situations are formed from. But you have to set your
creative mind to work to uncover what good can come from the circumstances. So bless
the situation, and affirm to yourself that something wonderful is going to occur as a result
of it. By doing so, you're instructing your subconscious to reveal the goodness of the
Infinite that animates every person, place, and condition.
You can do this for personal experiences or for more global situations. I've done this for
years for myself and others, and for social problems and world issues. Since we're all
connected in Universal Mind, the more people who bless any planetary conflict, the more
13
we're focusing on a positive solution and the benefits that can be found from it. It may
seem counter-intuitive to look for the blessing, but that's the only way we can turn a
"negative" into a "positive."
If it hadn't been for my mother's cancer, we probably never would have discovered a
major cause of her breathing difficulties. It took months before she had surgery, but
afterwards she was able to take a deep breath for the first time in years. Something
wonderful came out of what could have been something awful.
Affirmation
I bless every so-called "negative" situation in my world, whether it's my personal world
or the globe. By blessing the circumstances, I'm instructing the Universe, my
subconscious mind, and the collective subconscious, to find the good in the experience. I
don't have to figure out how or what benefit will result, I just keep my mind focused on
blessing the situation and knowing that there is a wonderful outcome. Only good goes
from me, and only good comes to me.

Keep Your Eye On The Goal

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(first published at http://www.cedarfire.com/article55-eyeongoal.shtml)
There's a story that if there were two doors into heaven, one marked "Heaven" and the
other marked "How To Get Into Heaven," more people would be lined up behind "How
To Get Into Heaven." We tend to be a goal-oriented society that loves learning "how to"
do things. However, putting this knowledge into practice is the next, and most important,
step. But many of us enjoy the process of learning more than the actual doing or the
achieving of the goal.
I find that to be true of many of my clients. They're focused on how they're going to
accomplish something. The process of reaching their goal is their main thrust. For
instance, when I work with smokers, I use the phrase "becoming a non-smoker" more
often than "quitting smoking," because "non-smoker" is the actual goal. I find that if a
person is focused on "quitting smoking," they won't easily reach their true desire, of
being a non-smoker. They'll always be "quitting" and won't have accomplished the "being
quit."
The same is true of people who wish to lose weight. If they're concerned with diets and
just losing the weight, once they reach their desired weight they generally go back to their
old way of eating and gain it all back. Instead of putting so much energy into the process,
they should be focused on the end result of being at their goal weight and what it will
take for them to remain there. It may entail changing eating habits, attitudes towards
food, eating less, or exercising more. In other words, thinking and acting like a slender
person instead of a dieter.
Remember that wherever a person's attention goes, energy flows. William James,
psychologist, said "What holds attention determines action." Having the attention on the
process tends to keep us in the process, and never reaching the goal. We can learn how to
do something, but we have to then put the knowledge into practice and change the way
we think and behave so we actually achieve our desired result.
The steps we take to reach a goal are important, as long as they don't become the
objective. There's a fine line we need to walk between figuring out what we need to do to
manifest our intention, and not concerning ourselves with how something will manifest.
Once we put our desire into Mind, then we need to have faith that our creative mind will
find the way for it to become real. We need to take action toward the goal, while trusting
that our subconscious is also active in discovering the best way to manifest it. For
instance, if a person wants a job change, they should begin looking at the want ads, send
out resumes, and make contacts, while knowing that their creative mind is also seeking
the best job for them.
15
Figure out what changes in beliefs, attitudes, and habits need to happen for your goal to
manifest. Do you want to lose weight? What would you be doing as a slender person? Do
you want to have more self-esteem? What do you need to change in the way that you talk
to and treat yourself? How would you act with higher self-esteem? How would your
attitudes be different with that reality? How are you going to feel once your goal is
reached? Is there any part of it that's scary to you?
Then write down the steps that you need to take to get to your goal. What are the
attitudinal changes? What habits or behaviors do you need to alter? What baby steps can
you take that let you change slowly, consistently, one item at a time? What affirmations
do you need to use? Any actions you take in the physical world communicate to the
subconscious that you really want your desire. In meditation or self-hypnosis, imagine
you have accomplished your goal and notice how you feel. Mentally repeat your
affirmations as you're going to sleep at night.
They say that the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. You could study
how to take that first step from now until the end of your life, but that won't get you any
closer to your goal. Take the first step, then the next, keeping your attention on your goal.
In this way, with each step you are getting closer to your desired outcome and creating
the life you want for yourself.
Affirmation
I give myself permission to manifest my goal, knowing that I deserve it. I'm now guided
as to what steps I need to take and I act on my guidance. I keep my attention on my goal,
knowing that my creative mind knows just what to do in just the right way to manifest it
for me. Any changes I need to make in my life, whether in behavior or attitude, I now
make. I begin to think and act as the person who has already reached my goal.

What Are You Training For?

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
(first published at http://www.cedarfire.com/newsletter.shtml)
There's an old saying that "You get out of a project what you put into it." This means that
however much energy you put into an activity, project or talent, you reap the benefits in
equal measure. Athletes wouldn't dream of attempting to "go for the gold" without
training mentally and physically. An artist knows that their talent grows the more they
exercise it. They recognize there will be hurdles to overcome, but those obstacles simply
make their abilities stronger.
The same is true of every aspect of life. If you focus your energy in the direction of
prosperity, you'll reap abundance. However, if you expend your thoughts in the area of
fear of not being able to pay the bills, that's what you'll manifest. It's like a bank account.
Think of what thoughts you're depositing in your mind. Whether those thoughts are
positive or negative, you'll earn interest based on the contents of you "account."
It takes concentrated practice to be aware of what thoughts you're thinking. And it takes
even more attention and discipline to transform those ideas into ones that are positive and
beneficial. Are you putting in ten thoughts of fear for every single thought of faith and
confidence? If so, you'll draw out whatever it is that you fear. When you practice
focusing on the good each day, you're exercising your confidence in the Universe. If you
come up against an obstacle, you'll have the strength to handle it.
Whatever kind of energy you're putting out, you'll be experiencing that in your life. Are
you depositing thoughts of an expanded, more abundant life? If not, begin to become
aware of what kind of thoughts you're depositing in your emotional bank, and start to
train for a better life.
Affirmation
I become aware of the thoughts that I think that might not be in harmony with the
Universe. I train myself to transform them into the kind of idea deposits that I desire. I
know that my thoughts manifest their equivalent in my life. I keep my thoughts positive
and focused on the Universal Good. Even though I might not see the good in any
situation, it is there awaiting my recognition of it. The more I practice this, the stronger
and more empowered I become.

Action Prepares The Way For Manifestation

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Have you selected your specific desire, done your mental work and affirming, let go of
the concern that it'll manifest, but it still hasn't shown up? It may be time for you to do
some grounding of your desire. What physical action have you taken in the direction of
your desire? Sometimes, a person has to jumpstart things in the material realm to get the
spiritual and mental one moving.
For instance, say you want a particular car. Test-drive one to get the feel of it. If you are
out of work, take a job, any job, to get some supply coming into your coffers. Suppose
you want to release excess weight. Start walking. To improve your health, make plans of
what you want to do in the future, and make some sort of commitment to do them.
Catherine Ponder wrote of a woman who wanted a new house. The woman put a hammer
and nails on her kitchen table so that she saw them all the time.
It's been said that "God can't steer a parked vehicle." As long as you're moving, in any
direction, you can be guided. Many times, I've made the mistake of waiting for guidance
before I chose a path. I had to wait a long time. Whereas, when I would choose a course,
even if it was a wrong one, things began to flow to me.
Taking action in the physical world begins to convince your subconscious that you really
want your desire. Even writing down what you want and reading it three times a day will
impress the subconscious. Doing this shows a sense of dedication to improving your life.
The more action you're willing to take, the faster your desire will manifest. This is
because the physical world is an extension of the mental/spiritual world. So once you've
done all your mental and spiritual work, it's time to make some movement in the material
world in the direction of your goal.
Affirmation
After I choose what I desire and do my mental and spiritual work, I decide on what action
to take to ground my desire in the physical world. By doing so, I convince my
subconscious how much that I want my goal. As I take some action, I am Divinely guided
in the right direction. Opportunities, contacts, information or whatever I need falls into
my path. Divine Energy flows through my activity in a perfect way.

Free Yourself From Your Mental Prison

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Do you want more prosperity, a better relationship, more creativity, more harmony, a
better job, better health? That longing is the Universe's way of impelling you to expand
and grow, to experience more freedom. So why haven't you achieved it? Your old
thought patterns, beliefs, ideas, and mental habits restrict what you've accepted thus far.
Sometimes, we stick with the familiar, because we're afraid of what changes the
fulfillment of our desire might bring.
A person might stay in a dead end job because they're afraid of the responsibilities of a
better one. The familiar is what we settle for. We may dream of something greater, but
when it comes down to actually acting on it, we pull back, fearful that we'd be asked to
stretch beyond our capabilities. Therefore, we remain in a self-created prison of
inadequacy and fear.
This situation has its equivalent in law enforcement and the penitentiary system. Many
times, a prisoner would be released from prison, just to go out and commit another crime
so he could be put back into familiar surroundings. He might rage at circumstances, but
his unconscious intention was to be returned to jail. Craving the structure of being told
when to eat, sleep, dress, shower, exercise and more, and not having to be responsible for
his life; he surrenders his freedom and his free choice for the security of a cell.
What are you giving up to stay in your old familiar situation? Where are you limiting
your freedom? What thoughts are restricting the fulfillment of your desires? What is
keeping you imprisoned in your current situation? It's not the Universe. Ask yourself if
you have any fear about achieving your desires. Do you have any issues with low selfworth, self-confidence, self-esteem or self-acceptance? Are you trying to avoid being
visible or acknowledged? Are you trying to avoid risk or responsibility?
All of these questions, and more, are issues to investigate in attempting to discover what's
keeping you detained in your current situation. Simply desiring to know the truth will
begin to uncover it. Fling open the doors of your self-created prison made of outdated
ideas, and accept all that the Universe has to offer you.
Affirmation
The Universe wants freedom and abundance of all good for me. I become aware of what
has kept me from achieving my desires. Any outdated ideas that have kept me imprisoned
in old conditions now melt away in the Light of Universal Harmony. I am Divinely

19
Guided in all my ways. I deserve all the best Life has to offer, and have the capabilities to
triumph. The Universe has confidence in me, therefore I have confidence in myself.

Conscious Consistency
By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Staying consciously consistent with your principles and with your affirmations isn't a
simple proposition. It's so much easier to just fall back into the old programming or to
react without thought. But to spiritually evolve and develop, a person has to learn to
change their old thought and behavior patterns and not allow outside forces to drag them
back into simply reacting from old fears.
There's a difference between reacting and responding to a situation. Reaction is habitually
"re-acting," which is acting the same way over and over, with no conscious choice.
Responding to a condition means that you have evaluated the situation, assessed your
behavior options and consciously selected a course of action that would be best to fulfill
your principles and whatever goal you might have.
Suppose someone criticizes you, and you feel attacked. Instead of immediately reacting
and going on the defensive and/or attacking them back, you might respond by detaching
from the situation to evaluate it. This isn't easy in the midst of emotional warfare. But it's
the way to be able to consciously choose your next step. First, evaluate your feelings and
choose a course of action that is consistent with your principles, while also supporting
your inner self. You can then state your case and let the person accept or reject it.
Keeping your words and deeds consistent with your affirmations also takes some
conscious effort. For instance, others in your world may bemoan the recession and
complain about the difficult economic times. However, you're affirming that prosperity
flows to you no matter how the outer circumstances might look. It may be difficult, with
all that negativity around, to avoid falling into the mental trap of a fear of lack. But if you
catch yourself every time you begin to affirm poverty, turn it around and affirm
prosperity, you'll program your mind for prosperity.
Staying consistent isn't easy, and means living consciously. But it's the only way to
change your old mental conditioning and your life. It's not easy to remain this aware, but
the rewards of spiritual growth are enormous.
Affirmation
I choose my principles and live according to my principles. I remain conscious,
evaluating every situation, and choosing how to respond so that I stay true to my inner
self. Whenever I catch myself falling into negative thinking or feeling, I remind myself of
the Truth that the Universe is everywhere present and wants me to have all the good I
deserve.

Reprogram Your Negative Self-Chatter

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Have you ever monitored what you say to yourself? Listened to the self-talk that chatters
away without your being aware of it? Automatic phrases, such as "I can't do this," "I'm
not worthy," "I can't handle this," "I can't afford it" and others. You may even find
yourself saying them to the people in your life. These are beliefs that have been
programmed into you, just like into a computer. Suppose the boss asks you to come into
his office. Your first reaction may be "Uh, Oh. I'm in trouble," even though he may want
to praise you.
These ideas come from your past, but they create a self-fulfilling feedback loop in your
subconscious. Without your being aware of it, they provide background noise in your life.
Is it any wonder that it's hard to make any changes? They echo the words of parents,
siblings, friends, teachers, anybody whose opinion you ever accepted, whether it was true
or not. You were hypnotized into believing them, and you've stayed true to the
conditioning.
An affirmation is a statement that confirms what you hold to be true, and though we
generally use the term for positive declarations, these statements can be either positive or
negative. When you tell yourself over and over that you're not worthy , it convinces your
subconscious that this is what you want, and your subconscious creates this reality.
The first step is to become aware of what you're telling yourself. Write down these
statements. Then formulate a sentence that counters what you've been believing all these
years. Use it repetitively, because that's how you were programmed in the first place. By
hearing the same or similar things over and over. Remain conscious of the background
noise of your thoughts. And when the negative statement rises up, use your new phrase.
Be patient. That original idea has been there a long time. It'll take time, consistence, and
persistence, but eventually you'll change the thought to one that more truly reflects the
Universe's loving opinion of you.
Affirmation
I monitor my self-talk and now become aware of what I'm telling myself. I realize that
these negative ideas came from the past and have no relation to my present life. I
recognize my own worth and the authority of my positive declarations. I am patient,
consistent and persistant in reprogramming my mind, for I know that the changes are
happening with every constructive affirmation that I state.

How Are You Defining Your Desires?

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Are you affirming for a specific result in your life, but not manifesting it fully? You may
experience a partial manifestation of it, or simply have opportunities that fall through at
the last minute. You could start a job with the promise of a fast promotion, then later
have your boss renege on the promise. Many things could be restricting the manifestation
of your affirmation, but one of them could be how you're defining your good.
Words carry a world of meaning, and one word may mean something to you and
something different to the person next to you. "Semantics" pertains to the underlying
meaning of a word or phrase. For instance, does "prosperity" mean wealth to you,
working for someone else, or a flowing of money to and through you, without leaving
much behind in your bank account? Does "harmony" mean peace at any price to you, or
calmness, ease and serenity?
One time I was taking a class on prosperity and we were to meditate on what "money"
symbolized to us. As I meditated on it, several words came to mind: ease, comfort, loss...
I mentally said "Whoa," and examined the reason for the last word. It seemed that many
times when I've benefited from a nice sum of cash, someone close to me had either left
my life or died. With that association, I could understand why having money might feel
unsafe to my subconscious mind. I began to talk to my inner mind, and let it know that
loss didn't have to accompany money.
Examine what the words you're affirming mean to you. Meditate on them. You may be
surprised about the negative connections you have with the terms you're using. Many of
your definitions will be based on old experiences. Now is the time to create new ones that
serve you in the present day. As you go deeper into your beliefs, assessing them, you'll
begin to release the limitations on your desires.
Affirmation
I now allow there to be clarity about why I haven't manifested my desire. Knowing the
Universe has already given it to me, I recognize that only my beliefs have restricted its
manifestation. As I meditate on what the words and desires symbolize to me, the full
knowledge of how I've been defining them comes to the surface of my conscious mind. I
know that the definitions are outdated and give myself permission to update them to be in
alignment with who I am now and what the Universe wants for me.

Let Go And Manifest

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
When I was a little girl, my mother made me Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls. I loved those
dolls so much that I took them with me everywhere, and wouldn't let them out of my
sight. So much handling, however, was hard on them. They needed to be washed
periodically, and have their torn legs repaired. However, I wouldn't let go of them for
their necessary upkeep.
Many times, when we have a valued goal, a dream, or feel desperate for a positive
change, we hold that desire close to us as I did with my dolls. It is so dear to our heart
that we don't let go of it to allow the Universe and the subconscious mind to work on it. If
we can't release our desire to the Universe, then it can't return to us fulfilled. We find it
easier to worry over it and try to figure out how we can fix it. We don't trust the Universe
or our subconscious mind to accomplish it. We think we know the best way to do it, but
all we're doing is getting in the way.
I think that this stage of manifestation is the most difficult. At least, it has been for me.
We may know what we want, know we deserve it, know that the Universe wants it for us,
but to then have confidence that it will be made manifest sometimes feels like stepping
off a cliff. But as long as we hold onto it, and fear that it won't be fulfilled, the Universe
and the subconscious can't bring their power and resources forth to discover that right
way to bring it into reality.
My mom had to wait until I was sleeping, and slip my dolls away from me to wash or fix
them, then slip them back before I awoke. I always got my Raggedy Ann and Andy back,
better than before. So put your mind at rest about your goal. Get out of the way and let
the Universe and your creative mind find the best way to manifest your dream.
Affirmation
I know what I want, know I deserve it, and know that the Universe wants it for me. The
Universe is waiting for me to release my goal into Its keeping, so It can bring all of Its
Infinite wisdom and resources to manifest it. I get out of the way. Even though I don't
know how to make my desire manifest, the Universe and my creative mind have
everything they need to do so.

Is Your Investment Worth It?

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
An investment is energy we've expended on a part of our life, whether it's an attitude or
belief we hold, finances or another personal area. And, as with any investment, we expect
to receive a return from it. If a person invested their money, i.e. financial energy, in a
particular stock, they want the stock to increase in value and to pay dividends. But many
times, if the stock loses its value, the owner will refuse to sell it at a loss, hoping that it
will rebound to its former value. In so doing, they keep their money tied up in something
that's no longer of benefit to them.
The same is true of any area of our lives. Most of us spend time and energy at our place
of employment, expecting to be compensated for our investment. However, a person may
stay at a job they've outgrown for the dividend of security, social interaction or avoiding
the fear of looking for a new job. But many times we stay at a job, channeling our energy
into areas that worked for us in the past, but aren't benefiting us now.
I once knew a talented artist who owned a succession of art stores. Every one failed for
various reasons. Each time, she and her children were evicted from their home and her
family or friends took them in. Although she consciously wanted to be a success, she got
a huge dividend from failing. For several months, sympathetic friends would take care of
her family and she had no responsibilities. After a number of years, some of her friends
got tired of the pattern, and refused to come to her rescue. But the mold was set. Even
though it no longer worked for her, she never could break the habit of failure.
Suppose a person wants to be healthier, but keeps smoking, eating junk food, and never
exercises. Where is their investment in their goal of health, and what dividends are they
reaping? They're investing their energy in what might have served a purpose at one time,
but no longer meets their needs. But they keep acting on what's no longer working for
them out of habit, and continue to harm themselves because they don't want to make the
effort to change.
A person might continue to focus on their lack of health, friends, or harmony in their
lives. That is their investment, therefore their dividends are going to be a reflection of
what's filled their consciousness. I've known many people who "enjoy ill health,"
meaning that they experience health issues, but also reap the reward of others who feel
sorry for, and take care of, them. Others manifest difficulties in their personal lives and
get attention when their friends sympathize with them.

28
If your life isn't what you want it to be, assess where you're investing your energy. Are
you thinking or believing in something negative? What happens when you don't achieve
the goal you consciously desire? What dividends do you receive for not reaching it; such
as attention, sympathy, help from others, safety, security, a reduction of responsibility, or
something else? When you're able to figure out what the investment and dividends are,
you'll be able to decide whether you want to keep your energy invested that way or
channel it in a new way. It is your choice to change or not, but know that it's your Divine
Right to have all the Good the Universe has to offer. Is your negative investment worth
not having all that Good?
Affirmation
I have a Divine Right to all the Good the Universe has to offer. If I'm not experiencing
that Good, I now assess where I'm investing my energy. I discover what the dividends are
for not manifesting my goal, realizing the dividends that may have helped me in the past
are no longer benefiting me in the present. I have the right to make a new choice that
reflects what aligns with my Higher Good.

Your Divine Right To The Best

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
For most of my life, I've felt guilty for any gifts, blessings, or good that I received. So
many people are deprived of these things, what right had I to have or enjoy the blessings I
had? This attitude was reinforced by family friends and classmates. A friend of my
mother told me that since her children didn't have the stability or toys that I had, her
children deserved what I had more than I did. She had no problem with letting her
children using, stealing, keeping or destroying my toys, clothes or comic books. Even
when I got a good grade in school, I felt guilty, as if I'd achieved that grade at someone
else's expense. Many people might consider these feelings to be ridiculous, but I also
know of many others that have experienced them.
Later in life, I actually refused great opportunities because of an unconscious fear that I'd
either get criticized for it or have what I worked for taken away from me. I've spent years
working on overcoming the unreasonable feelings of guilt and fear, and have made great
strides in that direction. However, whenever something nice happens, I feel an automatic
flinch, instinctively waiting for the other shoe to drop.
A few months ago, I re-read Catherine Ponder's "Open Your Mind To Receive," and this
time I really read the affirmation that said, "I have a Divine Right to the best." This shook
my inner world. Although I'd recognized this idea before, to actually say it out loud and
accept it inwardly short-circuited all those old ideas. Since everyone has a Divine Right
to unlimited good, then my good doesn't take anything away from anyone else. It
validated my right to have what I desire.
The concept that there is enough good for everyone, and everyone has the same access to
it is one I've accepted for a long time. The problem is that acknowledging it intellectually
and accepting it emotionally are two different things. Accepting my Divine Right to the
best trumps all the inner critical voices and silences them.
The reason for this is that the Universe has more authority than childhood messages. In
our childhood hierarchy, God/the Universe/the Infinite has far more power than what
parents, caregivers, teachers, or any other human authority says. When a person is in
therapy, and the therapist contradicts what a parent asserted to the patient, the adult
patient believes the therapist because they have more authority than the parent of long
ago.
The old, negative message has emotion attached to it, whether it's sadness, fear, shame,
guilt, or anger. But once an adult can reassess the message, and maybe have some

30
powerful validation that the message was false, then they can release the emotions and
their consequences.
Although I'd spent years chipping away at the guilt, reevaluating the idea and getting
validation that it wasn't true, I still hadn't been able to completely get beyond it.
However, once I accepted this new concept, it undermined the old criticisms because it
came from a higher perspective and held much more power than the misguided people
who had convinced me that I didn't deserve anything.
Now, whenever I feel some guilt, I remember that it's my Divine Right to experience the
best, and I feel lighter and freer to accept the good. I don't know how this is going to
change my life, but I do know that when some unexpected good comes my way, I won't
have that automatic flinch. I'll embrace the joy I feel, and remember that "I deserve this
because it's my Divine Right to have the best."
Affirmation
The Universe is infinite good, and everyone has the same access to this good as I do. It is
my Divine Right to experience the best Life has to offer. This concept has Divine
authority behind it and is more powerful than old messages to the contrary. Any old guilt,
shame, or avoidance of good now evaporates in the Light of this Truth. I now give myself
permission to accept the best.

Your Mental Merry-Go-Round

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Not too long ago, a friend told me she'd heard that a person needed to program their
conscious mind, not their subconscious mind. It's an interesting idea. Once the
subconscious has been programmed by the conscious mind, the subconscious furnishes
the conscious with an appropriate statement/feeling that echoes that information. If the
conscious mind isn't aware of this when it wants to change its course, then when it hears
a statement from the subconscious based on the old programming, the conscious agrees
with the subconscious instead of stating its new choice. To the subconscious, this simply
reinforces the rightness of the original instruction.
For example, a smoker's conscious mind has programmed their subconscious for years by
saying, "I can't quit." Therefore every time the smoker contemplates quitting the habit,
the subconscious whispers to the conscious mind, "I can't quit." The conscious mind
accepts it, parrots it, which just tells the subconscious, "Yep. I agree. I cannot stop this
habit. Therefore, there's no reason to even attempt it." Then, when the smoker finally
decides to quit, the subconscious, with all the reinforcement its gotten over the years,
makes it difficult, because it's just following the original instructions. The conscious
mind has made a different choice, but still hears and repeats, "This is so hard."
Once the subconscious has been programmed by the conscious mind, the whole process
becomes a feedback loop. There's an old saying about computers, "Garbage in, garbage
out." And around and around it goes. Wayne Dyer in "Your Erroneous Zones" called it
the "I'm circle." We have a particular belief, believe in that belief (whether it's true or
not), act from that belief, reinforcing it, which just brings us back to the beginning.
We can intervene and break the loop, but it takes awareness and persistence. And only
the conscious mind can break it. The conscious mind can be reprogrammed by using its
power of choice. It can choose what to focus on. The subconscious mind does not have
that power. The subconscious is subject to the conscious mind's decisions and has the
ability to figure out how to make those decisions real.
This is why changing one's beliefs can be so challenging. The subconscious repeats to us
what we've told it to and we now have to convince it that we're choosing to think
differently. Suppose a person was told that they were "Stupid" as a child. That
programmed the subconscious. Now, whenever they do something that's not perfect, the
subconscious murmurs, "Stupid." The unaware or distracted conscious mind falls into the
trap, and repeats, "I'm so stupid," which communicates to the subconscious that the
conscious still agrees with that judgement. That gives the subconscious directions to
continue to criticize.
32
However, suppose the person catches the statement and challenges it with the more
realistic, "No, I'm not stupid. That just wasn't my best work. I can do better, and will."
That lets the subconscious mind know that a different decision has been made. The
person needs to dispute the negative statements with something positive every time they
put themselves down. This reprograms the subconscious to be more supportive and repeat
the new positive assessment.
Choose to believe something more in alignment with who you are today and it will
happen. You can get off the merry-go-round of your mind by being aware of the
automatic thoughts about your life, and changing them to what you want to believe. Take
back your power.
Affirmation
I have the power to choose what to think and how to feel about the different areas of my
life. The subconscious now realizes that I no longer wish to continue thinking about them
in the old way. I become aware of how I'm thinking, my automatic reactions to these
thoughts, and what the subconscious is whispering to me about the parts of my life that I
wish to change. Whenever I hear an old, negative statement, I make a more positive,
realistic choice of how to think about the situation. As I do this consistently, my
subconscious accepts my new ideas as valid and finds the right way to make them
manifest.

Act As If....
By
Linda-Ann Stewart
The first winter I lived in Sedona it rained all the time, which is unusual for the desert. To
get to my house, I had to cross a major wash that was often full of water. There were
times when the wash couldn't be crossed for hours. Sometimes, this kept me from getting
into town, while at other times it kept me from getting home. One day, a storm was
predicted. I had classes that day, in the morning and the evening. Instead of skipping
them, I decided to act as if I'd be able to return safely that night. That evening, the rain
turned to snow. I drove almost twenty miles with blinding snow flying straight into my
headlights, not knowing if I could get home. As I approached the wash, it was nearly dry.
The rain had turned to snow early on and the snow hadn't melted enough to fill the wash.
I did not know that the rain was going to turn to snow. I do know that it was a miracle
that I got home safely that night. Although I probably should have experimented in a
safer situation, it taught me a valuable lesson about acting as if what I wanted was a
foregone conclusion.
When we have the attitude of assurance that what we desire is going to manifest, it
signals the subconscious mind to seek the channels necessary. Our positive expectation
becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy because we're also taking the steps to make our goal a
reality. The Universe then swoops in to support us, and incredible synchronicities can
happen. We might be introduced to the right person to give us the information or help we
need, find just what we're looking for, or any number of solutions.
As long as we're moving, taking some action, with our goal in mind, the Universe and our
subconscious can direct us. Someone once said, "God can't steer a parked vehicle." Even
if our first steps are in the wrong direction, we can be guided into the right path.
Visualizing, affirming, making a treasure map, all are valuable aids to get us focused on
what we want. But we need to overcome our fear of failure by taking some action every
day, and acting as if success is assured.
How would you think and act differently if you knew you were going to succeed? If you
wanted to be healthier, you'd eat better, get enough sleep, take steps to reduce stress, and
exercise. For higher self-esteem, you'd be supportive of yourself and stand up for yourself
because you matter. To reduce weight, you'd eat less, choose healthy foods, and exercise
more. To be more successful, you'd cultivate an attitude of confidence and self-assurance,
and do everything you knew to move forward.
If you desire a higher income, the attitude of "acting as if" doesn't mean going out and
spend more than you currently have. In that case, you'd shop for the things you want,
34
research how to invest, prioritize what you'd buy as your finances improve. To increase
your income, you might confidently ask for a raise, look for a better position, expand
your abundance consciousness, search for a channel for a second income, or whatever is
right for you.
There will likely be setbacks as you begin your journey. If you consider them to be
opportunities, then your subconscious will find the way to "make lemons into lemonade."
You can learn from them, and keep moving forward. Confidence is catching. If you
believe you are going to be a success, then the people you come in contact with will
believe it, too. When you "act as if" your success is assured, then all of Life will also
believe it, and you'll be amazed at the results.
Affirmation
I know that I can have anything I desire through the power of the Universal Mind.
Success in my chosen goal is already assured in that Mind. I now align myself with the
idea of confidence in my success, and decide what I need to do, think and be to bring it
into reality. As long as I'm moving in the direction of my goal, Infinite Mind can guide
and direct me. When I "act as if" success is assured, the Universe swoops in to lift me up
and carry me to success.

Ask For What You Want

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
As a child, I was discouraged from asking for something more than once. When my
parents said "No," there was no changing their minds, and I got in trouble if I tried.
This concept affected my early schooling. In second grade, my teacher instructed us to
ask her when we were ready to move from the story book side of the library (for first
graders) to the more advanced side. Since I'd already read everything on the storybook
side, I immediately asked permission to transfer from one side to the other. She said,
"No," without any explanation. From my experience at home, I didn't challenge her, so I
didn't ask her again until almost all of the class had moved to the advanced side.
Later on in school, the idea that "asking was unacceptable" was reinforced again. I had a
teacher who told us there was "No such thing as a stupid question." But when we didn't
understand a math problem and asked for clarification, she'd call us stupid.
These experiences, and many others, established a pattern in my life. It was forbidden to
ask for help or for what I wanted. If I did, I knew I'd be denied, rejected, or ridiculed. It
was so ingrained that I didn't even think to ask the Universe for what I wanted. I figured
that if my desires weren't given to me, even after I'd worked for them, I couldn't request
any help. I should be able to do it on my own or not at all.
Over the past few years, I've realized how incredibly limiting that concept is. It's said that
the Universe knows our needs and desires before we ask. Because of that, some people
then think that they shouldn't have to make the request. The Universe may know our
desires, and have already granted them, but unless we ask, how can our subconscious
mind know that we actually want them?
Until we knock at the door, and keep knocking until we get an answer, the subconscious
won't believe that we actually want our goal. Sometimes the initial answer is "No," and if
that's the case we need to figure out what else we need to do to get an affirmative
response. Sometimes, it's simply that we need to ask again and again, or go around to the
back door and knock. Persistence gets the attention of our subconscious mind. People
will notice when you keep at it, and begin to take you seriously when you don't give up.
Just like your subconscious mind will notice your persistance.
There are times when we need to go somewhere else to ask for what we want. I once had
a friend who wouldn't take "No" for an answer. He kept trying to get me to change my
mind about going to his church with him. Because he didn't like my answer, he tried to
manipulate me into doing what he wanted. Eventually, I ended the friendship and he had
36
to find friendship elsewhere. If a particular person or situation can't or won't give what
you want, then it's time to move on to someone or someplace that's more receptive.
The Universe really does want to help you, but you may have some beliefs to the
contrary. Those are ideas that have been accepted by your subconscious mind. You can
change these negative concepts with perseverance. I still have trouble asking for help,
especially when I'm shopping for something. But once I've done all I can on my own, I
ask for assistance. The Universe, sometimes acting through other people, has been more
than willing to help.
Affirmation
It's okay to ask for what I want. I persist in asking for what I really desire, knowing that
in doing so, I'm convincing my subconscious mind that I truly want my goal. The
Universe completely supports my desires, and has already granted them. I realize that the
Universe acts through other people to grant my wishes. I'm guided and directed to the
right people or into right action to receive a positive response to my request.

Planting The Seeds Of Your Desire

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
When a smoker comes to see me professionally, or comes to my tobacco-cessation class,

before they actually "quit," I give them "homework." They're instructed to begin being
aware of when they smoke, what they're doing when they smoke, and to make the whole
process inconvenient by hiding the pack of cigarettes. This, and other activities, begin to
prepare their subconscious for their "quit date." By doing so, they're letting their
subconscious know that they're serious about not smoking. This gets the garden of their
mind ready to plant the seeds of being a non-smoker.
If you've ever gardened, you know that the soil must be prepared. A seed won't take root
in ground that's hard as a rock. The earth must be turned over to make it soft so seeds can
take root. Weeds need to be pulled. Fertilizer may be added to the soil to make it more
fertile. And once the seeds have been sown, the plot must be watered, and kept free of
unwanted weeds that might crowd out your desired crop. The same must be done with
your mind when making a change in your life.
The first thing you need to do is decide what you want to plant. If you want marigolds,
then don't get a package of squash seeds. You need to focus on what it is you want, not
what you don't want. Just like fertile soil, your subconscious will grow whatever you
plant. But since it doesn't understand a negative statement, you must focus on what it is
you want. For instance, a person should not say "I won't smoke," but say, "I choose to be
a non-smoker." What is it that you want to change in your life? Once that's decided, what
steps can you take in the direction of your goal?
For instance, if you want more abundance, examine your thoughts and attitudes about
prosperity. Do you have low self-worth, do you feel it's impossible to experience more
abundance, do you feel you don't deserve it? Those are the weeds that need to be pulled.
Every time you think of prosperity, imagine feeling that you have more, and more is
coming into your life. You're preparing your garden and planting the seeds. As they begin
to germinate, you may be guided to network, to ask your boss for a raise, to take more
training. Follow these directives, as they're the Universe helping you through your
subconscious.
If you want to reduce weight, begin to act like a thinner person by reducing the amount
you eat, exercising, and eating healthier. For better relationships, act friendly and
optimistic, and make sure your boundaries are respected, while you respect others' limits.
To feel better about yourself, observe what you say to yourself and make it more positive.

38
Once you've planted your seeds, know that you rarely get a 100% germination rate. One
time, I planted eight spaghetti squash seeds but only seven of them germinated. While the
crop of seeds didn't all sprout, the ones that did produced a large number of squash that
took over my garden. If you've planted a sufficient number of thoughts and actions
related to your desire, you'll get a healthy amount of them sprouting.
Once you have a successful yield, with continued tending, they will grow larger and more
successful. Many years ago, I planted a bunch of marigolds. I didn't pinch the blossoms
after they'd faded, so they went to seed and fell off. The next year, I had more marigold
plants than I'd had the year previously. However, this time I didn't tend them, and there
weren't any the year after that. If you neglect your garden, the seeds won't sprout, and the
weeds will once again take over.
If you don't consciously and persistently tend to your mental garden, the subconscious
will deliver to you the general trend of your mindset. If it's "I'm helpless, I'm a victim, I
can't, I'm not enough," the subconscious will make sure those expectations are met. Just
like planting seeds in a garden, the subconscious can only grow the ideas that are
impressed into it.
Once you get your plot ready, plant the seeds, and water them, trust that the soil (your
subconscious mind) knows how to germinate the seeds and make them produce. Don't
dig them up when you get impatient. Some seeds take longer to sprout than others. The
same is true with your goal. It may take a bit of time and tending to allow the
subconscious to fully develop the idea and find the way to bring it about. But as with
gardening, a mind that's prepared and constantly tended will yield a rich and plentiful
harvest.
Affirmation
I am now aware of what the tendency of my thoughts are about my goal. I weed out the
negative ideas I've held about my desire by knowing that I deserve it, the Universe wants
it for me, and my subconscious knows how to bring it about. To prepare for the reality of
my goal, I take any steps that I need to take. I keep my attention focused on the
completion of my desire, and trust my subconscious mind to figure out how to manifest
it.

Believe Your Thoughts Have Power

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
When I was in college, I took a class in archery. I started with a bow that didn't take
much effort to pull the string. As I practiced, my muscles strengthened until I was able to
move up to a bow that took more effort. Along with getting stronger, my aim improved.
With the more powerful bow, my arrows went further. If I lost my concentration while
aiming, the arrow would go wide of my mark and I'd miss the target and hit the bales of
hay beyond it.
In that class, I went through a course of training to strengthen my muscles and improve
my aim. The same is true of our thoughts. Every thought we have is creative, but most of
the time, the subconscious doesn't act on them. It acts only on the thoughts that have the
most emotion, power and repetition. Repetition of the same thought allows the concept to
accumulate energy. The subconscious recognizes the ideas that we aim at the most and
strives to hit that target.
As we understand this concept, we learn that our thoughts have power. "Thoughts are
things," as some of the modern mystics have said. Ernest Holmes, founder of Science of
Mind, stated that "The more power one gives to his thought - the more completely he
believes that his thought has power - the more power it will have."
When we focus on a goal, we must let the subconscious mind work out the way to
manifest it. Training ourselves to trust the subconscious to figure out how to manifest our
desire frees it to be more creative and respond more quickly. Ernest Holmes also said,
"Trained thought is far more powerful than untrained." Just as I trained in archery, and
improved with practice, your results will improve as you train your mind.
But just as I would miss the mark if I lost my concentration when I was shooting an
arrow, so can trained thought miss the mark if we focus on the wrong thing. If we've
trained ourselves to focus our mind on what we want, then the subconscious manifests it.
It doesn't care whether the goal is good or bad for us, it just responds to the amount of
energy we put into the thought.
I've known many people who trained their minds to manifest their desires, then forgot
that if they focused on the wrong thing, their subconscious wouldn't discriminate and
would create the negative idea as well. Resentment, bitterness, ill will, feeling victimized,
and jealousy boomeranged quickly, and these people experienced falls from grace, lost
jobs, alienated friends, financial difficulties, etc. When we tune our minds, and sharpen
our thinking, we have to be careful of what we contemplate because all of our thought
then becomes more powerful.
40
This may seem scary to some. "What if I think the wrong thing?" Mainly, it's when we
dwell on the negativity and it gets entrenched that it rebounds on us. Our saving grace is
that the subconscious acts on the tendency of all our thoughts. Therefore, if we generally
focus on positive thoughts, a few fleeting negative emotions, like anger, grief, etc., won't
gather much energy. As long as we are working on releasing any negativity, the process
keeps the energy moving and it won't gather any intensity.
As we progress mentally, our spiritual path becomes narrower, and we have less leeway
to wander off of it. The advantage is that we learn our lessons faster because the effects
of our mis-steps show up rapidly. It's been called "instant karma." We also become
clearer, and are able to manifest what we want more quickly. Just as when I trained in
archery, my arm got stronger and the arrow flew straighter and further, so will your
thoughts soar to your target as you train your mind to know that your thoughts have
power.
Affirmation
Every thought I have is creative. I keep my mind focused on what it is that I desire. As I
train my mind and believe my thoughts have power, my thoughts increase in their power
and manifest what I desire more quickly. I trust that my subconscious knows how to
manifest my desire, even if I don't. As I deal with any negative thought or emotion, I'm
able to release it bit by bit and it fades away. I fill my mind with thoughts of peace,
prosperity, health, harmony, and all that is good.

Cleaning The Window Of Your Mind

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Last week, I had a day when everything went right. I shopped for, and found, a perfect
sweater. When I stopped at the grocery store, I ran into a couple of past tobacco-cessation
class participants who thanked me for all the help that I'd given them. My class went
smoothly. Even most of the stoplights were green for me.
Have you ever had a day when you're in the zone, and everything falls into place? Or,
conversely, when you're in a bad mood and nothing appears to go right? You burn the
toast, run into construction, and all the lights turn red just before you get to them. Your
day to day consciousness or mood determines how things flow (or not) for you.
On a larger scale, the same is true for your life as a whole. Your subconscious mind acts
on the sum-total of your thoughts. If you generally dwell on ideas of lack, limitation, and
struggle, then your life will be created from that energy. Challenges and difficulties
become the norm. Your subconscious filters everything through your belief as to whether
life is "for you" or "against you." A wonderful opportunity could come your way, but if
you are in this negative mind-set, the subconscious would disregard the chance since it
didn't align with the over-all trend of your thinking.
However, if the tendency of your thinking is more positive, life flows more smoothly for
you. Unexpected benefits fall into your path. Lemons turn into lemonade. I'm sure you've
known someone who always lands on their feet and has the golden touch. This is because
their dominant thoughts are positive and productive. Even if they have a stretch of
unhappiness, since the bulk of their beliefs are constructive, the despondent outlook
doesn't make much of a dent.
When I've been in a period of crisis, and my consciousness has been caught up with
alarm and distress, I experience more restrictions and difficulties. This is because my
mental resources are wrapped up in anxiety. However, the times that I've had a lasting
emergency, but immersed myself in positive concepts, life flowed more easily and
upward.
If your consciousness tends more towards negativity, using affirmations can improve any
aspect of your life. But unless your total awareness raises, it's unlikely the change will
last. I've known people to initially experience marked improvement and even miracles,
but couldn't sustain them because of the overall destructive inclination of their thinking.
It's like having a dirty window, with the grime on it being your accumulated negative
beliefs. Your vision is like the old saying, "We see through a glass, darkly." Everything
42
you perceive is filtered through the filth, and this affects your entire life experience.
Using an affirmation for a specific area of your life cleans a space in the dirt. However, if
you don't constantly work at keeping that section clear by continuously using the
affirmation, the grime from the rest of the window creeps back over it, clouding it again.
To make sure you improve the quality of your life, fill your mind with the possibilities of
good. Read uplifting books that help you recognize your true potential. Identify what
your negative beliefs about life are, and find a way to improve those concepts. Whenever
you recognize that your thoughts are drifting back into a negative feedback loop,
understand that it's simply old programming, and change them to something favorable.
Keep a gratitude journal daily to remind you of the good in your world.
It's far too easy to sink into a quicksand of negativity. If you aren't vigilant, you can be
pulled down into the mire and your awareness will become polluted. This tendency must
be combated with every thought of every day. The good news is that as soon as you begin
to lift your vision from the rocks at your feet to the bright horizon, you'll notice your life
improving and it will be lasting.
Affirmation
I now fill my mind with thoughts of love, joy, harmony, peace and power. I know that
Life is created from Love, and that the Universe wants the best for me. I think of the
possibilities, and know that they can come to pass. Life is "for me." I can have anything
good I desire, through the power of my subconscious mind. I bless every difficult
situation, and trust that it somehow benefits me.

Focus On What You Want

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
When Im working with smokers to help them quit, I tell them that if theyre having a
hard time giving it up, its because for years theyve told themselves that I cant quit, or
Its going to be hard. The subconscious has accepted that declaration and is making
sure that its giving them what it thinks they want. Even if theyve made a different
decision (to quit), the inner mind is simply obeying the concept with the most energy
attached to it.
What have you been unwittingly telling your subconscious? Im not good enough, I
cant win, There isnt enough (whatever) to go around, I cant find a romantic
partner, There isnt enough business, Theres a scarcity of jobs, I cant find what I
want. These conclusions are instructions to the subconscious, and it must act on them.
Theres an old saying, Energy flows where attention goes. Wherever your attention is,
whatever youve been focusing on, the subconscious will create a mold for that belief and
make it real. It doesnt matter whether youve been concentrating on what you want, or
what you dont want, a desire or a fear. The subconscious cant discern between positive
or negative emotion. It simply recognizes the force of the energy, associates it with the
image or concept youre dwelling on, and thinks, They must want this or else they
wouldnt have spent so much time thinking about it. Energy (emotion) plus image
(concept) equals result (your experience).
The subconscious is also quite literal. I tell smokers that they need to keep their attention
on their desired result. Instead of focusing on quitting smoking, they need to keep
thinking about being a nonsmoker. Ive known many people who have quit smoking,
only to begin again a few weeks or months later because their stated goal was to Quit
smoking. Once theyd stopped, their subconscious figured, Okay, weve achieved that
goal. Now lets start smoking again so that we get to accomplish it again.
The same is true for weight reduction. So many people focus on releasing a certain
amount of weight, only to regain it again. Their attention was on the activity of reduction
instead of eating and exercising for the weight they wanted to be. The subconscious is
only doing what it thinks you want. You have to be specific and focus on the end result
instead of the steps to get there. The steps are necessary to break the objective down into
goals that can be readily accomplished.
This principle applies to every aspect of your life. Do you want a greater income? Instead
contemplating the lack of money (which the subconscious perceives to be your aim), fill
your mind with the amount you want and how your life will change. If you want a
44
relationship, instead of complaining there you cant meet anyone you like (the
subconscious will make sure you dont), realize that there are countless number of people
to choose from.
If you need to break your objective into attainable steps, thats fine. Just keep your mind
on the eventual goal. What do you need to change to achieve it? For instance, a smoker
needs to develop new coping skills, as does anyone reducing weight. For greater
abundance, do you need to become more visible and network? For a relationship, find
ways to meet people of like mind.
Instead of focusing on the lack or blocks to what you want (which the subconscious will
misunderstand as instructions), place your attention on the solution and take the actions
necessary to get there. Universal energy will flow in, and even if you dont know how
youll achieve your objective, youll be guided in the right direction. Remember, your
subconscious mind will work just as hard to give you what you want as it will to give you
what you dont want. What you concentrate on and then receive from Life is up to you.
Affirmation
I become aware of the negative messages Ive been telling myself. Recognizing that they
are outdated and that I want to change them, I find a way to open my mind to the
possibilities. I now focus on what it is that I do want. As I identify the positive changes
that my goal will manifest in my life, I take the actions necessary to bring about the
change I desire. My subconscious finds the way to bring it about, and the Universe guides
and directs me in the right direction.

Relax Your Grip

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
After completing a garage sale, I wanted to find homes for some furniture that hadnt
sold. I approached resale shops in the area. Most didnt take furniture, and if they did,
they didnt want any at this time. I tried donating them to various charities, but none of
them wanted the furniture, either. I didnt want to have to spend several hundred dollars
to have them hauled off to the dump, but that was looking likely. The more time and
effort I spent on trying to find a solution, the more I was blocked. The frustration and
stress built to a point that I had to let go of seeking an answer for awhile.
Its a good thing to be persistent, to keep knocking on door. This shows your
subconscious that you really mean business, and that you want to make changes.
However, when you start to shake the doorknob, or take an axe to the door, maybe its
time to let the issue rest for awhile. When you try to force the Universe to manifest the
solution NOW!, that means youre trying to control the outcome. And that, in itself,
will create a block. The secret to solving a problem is to focus on the end result, not on
how you think it should be done.
The harder you try to fix the problem, the more solid and stubborn it will become.
Theres an old saying, You cant push the river. When you use your willpower to try to
force your way through an issue, its like all the energy is going into creating more of a
block. The frustration, anxiety, and irritation just tells the subconscious that you want
more of the challenge. When the conscious mind is fully engaged with your churned up
emotions, the subconscious doesnt have the energy to find the solution. The inner mind
senses the emotions focused on the issue instead of its solution, and delivers more
challenges.
Sometimes, you just have to walk away from it. Let the energy dissipate, so the
subconscious can use its creativity to actually work on a solution. Put your attention on
something else. As a friend of mine says, Change the energy. Go have some ice cream.
Take a walk, play, work on another project. Take a break from trying to force the issue.
Shift the energy from aggravation to enjoyment or accomplishment. When you do, the
subconscious then has the energy available to find a solution.
A few hours after I let go of my problem with the furniture, I received a phone call from
someone who was willing to take the furniture for a nominal fee. One of the places Id
contacted had given him my name. I was delighted that the pieces would continue to be
of service, and that my problem was solved. Once again, I was shown that the best way to
solve a problem was to relax my grip on it.

46
Affirmation
I know there is a solution to my problem. My subconscious mind is very creative, and
knows what to do and how to do it to find an agreeable solution. I now let go of the issue,
relaxing my grip on it, and do something enjoyable. By releasing the problem to my
subconscious mind, I funnel positive energy into its creativity. Drawing its power and
wisdom from the Universe, my creative mind now resolves the problem in Divine Order.

Defuse the Power of Negative Thinking

By
Linda-Ann Stewart
Emerson said, We are what we think about all day long. What do you tend to think
about all day? Is your awareness focused on beneficial, enriching thoughts or are you
mainly thinking discouraging, undermining ideas and telling yourself that I cant? The
subconscious follows the tendency of your thoughts, and manifests the average of what
you ponder during the day. If the overall quality of your thoughts is positive and
uplifting, then the subconscious moves in that direction, and the converse is true.
Its not easy to think positively every moment of every day. Im not even sure its
possible. But the subconscious doesnt need you to be continuously constructive. It just
needs you to be more positive than negative for it to create more harmony. But many
people fear their negative thoughts, and that very fear gives those thoughts more energy.
Each thought is potentially creative and is formed of energy. When a person recognizes
theyve considered a negative idea, many times they feel guilty for doing so, and become
afraid that it will overcome any positive thoughts. Instead of simply switching their
attention to something more beneficial, they continue to spiral downwards, and the
negative thought takes on a life of its own.
For instance, consider a baseball player who has missed every pitch in a game. Instead of
figuring he just had a bad game, or the pitcher was especially good, he might begin to
doubt his abilities. During practice, and the next game, hell tense up and worry too much
about hitting the ball. He may recognize the tendency of his thinking, and try to
overcome it. But now hes fighting on two fronts. Hes concerned about not hitting the
ball and fearful that his thinking is going to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Once he
begins to worry, and not trust his abilities, problems arise.
Many times, the limiting, negative thoughts are simply a part of the subconscious trying
to protect you and keep you safe. You might hear that little voice in your head saying:
If you dont try, then you wont fail, right?
By expecting the worst, you wont be disappointed when it happens.
If you dont succeed, then people wont expect more of you.
This little voice is part of the subconscious mind using fear, doubt, and worry as a way to
keep you from growing and moving forward. As long as youre in familiar territory, then
it figures nothing bad will happen.
Its simply doing its job, repeating what its been programmed to do. So instead of
vilifying it, resisting the negative thoughts and fearing their power, change your way of
48
responding to them. When you become aware of a negative idea, simply say, Thank
you. This immediately defuses the power you attach to the negative thought. Youre
acknowledging its attempt to help, instead of rebelling against it. State, Thank you, but
thats no longer helpful, and respond with a beneficial concept.
A long time ago, I learned a powerful way of dealing with negative thoughts. Divide a
paper in half, write your affirmative goal on the left side, and record any objection that
comes to mind on the right side, and then reply with Thank you. By writing down its
concerns, and then acknowledging it with a Thank you, youre letting the subconscious
mind know that you recognize its distress. On the next line, write your goal again, and
then any negative response, and Thank you. Continue until you dont notice any
negative thoughts about it coming into your mind.
Eventually, it will cease to bother you with protests, because youve let it know youve
heard it, but are still going to move in that new direction. Youve taken back your power.
It will respect that, because thats its true goal. As long as you accept your own authority
in directing your life, the critical voice will quiet down. And you can now put your
attention on what it is you want in your life, without wasting your energy resisting your
negative thoughts.
Affirmation
Negative thoughts are simply outdated ideas that I accepted sometime in the past. They
are no longer valid or necessary to help me. Whenever I recognize myself dwelling on a
negative concept, I remember that its simply my subconscious mind concerned about
me. I respond with Thank you, but its safe for me to experience progress. I accept that
I am the authority in my life and now take back my power.

Which is right for me, affirmations or hypnosis?
If you can set aside twenty or so minutes a day, even if it's right before you go to bed,
then the hypnosis tapes are right for you. However, if you cannot find that time, then the
affirmation tapes would be your best choice. The affirmation tapes were designed to be
used while you're doing other activities. The hypnosis tapes should only be listened to
when you can close your eyes and be quiet.
What's the difference between affirmations and hypnotic suggestions?
Affirmations and suggestions are essentially the same thing. Only the terminology is
different. Both suggestions and affirmations are statements that are designed to change
old mental ideas in your subconscious mind. Generally, affirmations are used while you
51
are awake and alert, and during other activities. But they can also be used in meditation to
help to elevate your consciousness. In that case, they then become a suggestion. A
suggestion is a statement designed to change a belief, attitude, habit, or effect a change on
the body. Both re-program your mind to release old thought patterns and condition it with
the new ones that you choose.
