Choosing thoughts...

When I wake up in the morning, I give thanks to God that I am alive and have an opportunity to enjoy and share with others in this day. As the day unfolds, my thoughts sometimes are not as positive as when I first woke up.

I am thankful that I am aware of the kind of thoughts that I think. This is because I reflect on my thoughts during the day or most times in the evening at the close of my day. I then decide that some of the thoughts that I let my mind entertain are not going to serve me to my highest and best. Remember every thought that has ever been thought is still with us. I replace those thoughts with other thoughts that are positive.

I do this by starting an affirmation with, I am, (example, I am experiencing a day full of joy). I think of thoughts as being like good friends who want the best for me. The other thoughts are like friends who are not certain of what they have to offer me, so I try to let them move on.

Meditation: contemplate on, I choose the thoughts that I allow to come into my mind. Any thoughts that do not serve my highest and best, I bless them and allow them to move on. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran
