For instance, the “dark moon days” just before the new moon are wonderfully supportive for self-care, pampering, and introspection.

Are we taking the time to make sure our needs are met?
Do we spend time getting to know what those needs are?
Do we nurture our souls and recognize the things that bring us joy, peace, happiness?
Do we make the effort to contribute, to reach out and connect with others to find like minds, trusting companions and collaborators?
All these things are evidence of a committed relationship – with yourself. When your needs are met you experience wholeness.

How we think and feel is based on how we perceive things, its how we build our belief system and it is how we respond to situations.

Good people, kind people, people who are strong, graceful, resourceful. People who have yet to discover the full spectrum of their own unique gifts, talents, and coping mechanisms. All sorts of people survive accidents, addictions, diseases, bankruptcy, divorce, loss of income, loss of loved ones, and all manner of devastating circumstances. It is easy to be amazed at the sheer tenacity of the human spirit that allows us to walk through a hard place and come out on the other side, triumphant. And yet, we don’t have to let these hard places define us.
Whatever “story” we are telling about ourselves will continually play itself out in our experience.

One I Am statement repeated once a day can’t override hundreds of counter-thoughts throughout the day, no matter how powerful it is.
It’s worth making sure your most common thoughts aren’t holding up your manifesting party, because I suspect I’m not the only one who has a combination of well-crafted affirmations along with knee-jerk thoughts that contradict my instruction for the good life.
This is your invitation to get clear on what your top affirmations really are and replace anything that deserves an upgrade.
