The power of the verb – your words and thoughts – is unlimited. You, as a part of the creative mind, generate that which you program. This related to health issues is an important point to consider.

The time lapse (approximately an hour or so) between the moment you prepare to lay in bed and actually fall asleep is the time when affirmative prayer has its greatest power. The moments right before you doze off to sleep, when your conscious mind doesn’t interfere so strongly, are prefect to program yourself to positive and healing attitudes.

Especially before going to sleep one has the tendency to recall what the day looked like, and as we lay ourselves to bed, we are more conscious of our body and our pains. What happens if you think and talk about your pains or name your illness? You are actually giving them the power to stay and even to grow. One is better off avoiding this. Fear and pain are no good companies before going to bed.

Instead think about harmony and perfect health, and don’t refer to your condition by name in the hours before going to bed.

I will show you my personal affirmative prayer for healing which is inspired in a prayer contained in Dr. Joseph Murphy’s book: The Power of Your Subconscious Mind.I recommend that you adapt or make your own personal healing prayer which would better suit you, whether in its content or the way you normally talk to yourself or the universal energies.

You must feel comfortable with your prayer and be able to remember it because you will repeat it often enough so that your subconscious mind accepts the “health affirmations” for your body as true and sets out to heal you.

Affirmative prayers should be repeated several times a day, taking into account that the moments before dozing to sleep are those in which praying works with more power. It’s like even though you’re sleeping, your mind repeats that which you programmed.

I am relaxed and in peace.

The infinite intelligence of my Mind which created me, in conjunction with the Eternal and Universal Mind, works in this moment to regenerate each and every one of my atoms, cells, tissues, nerves, organs, systems and vital processes. It regenerates me completely and restores perfect state of health in me and around me.

All distortion patterns and thoughts are removed, dissolved and gone.

My whole body is completely restored to health and harmony.

For this I am thankful.

You see, there are these long sold stereotypes “made up” by religious groups and people with power to oppress the masses: “Poverty and suffering are virtues”; “only the poor will go to Heaven”; “money is the origin of all evil”, and we can go on and on this way.

1. Note: First of all, heaven is open for everybody (read here), whether you’re poor or rich or anything; as long as you want to, heaven is yours. And this has absolutely no relationship with your material achievements on this planet.
   Second of all, some political tendencies and even Robin Hood promote taking away from the rich to give to the poor because it’s way easier than empowering the poor in a nation to achieve a realistic goal of prosperity in an area of their best skills. Mother Theresa said something like: don’t take people out of poverty, take poverty out of people’s minds. That means hard work.

There are so many people who want a nice house with a garden, in a beautiful place. I ask you, if you have no resources and having money is so bad, how on earth are you going to make your dreams turn into reality? It’s good to have money, and it’s OK to be prosperous. Living only for money or living in bad conditions because of the lack of it is not OK.

I read The Power of Your Subconscious Mind from Dr. Joseph Murphy quite a long time ago, it’s a book about affirmative prayer and working on your mind, and it literally changed my relationship to money and wealth.

This change in your relationship with money and wealth is the first step to heal your mind of erroneous concepts. Wealth is not only money matters; wealth is abundance in all areas, but mostly in freedom of action.

Freedom of action! Doesn’t it sound good? It sure does to me.

I’m not rich but I’m expanding each day more. Each day I work towards winning freedom of action in every way possible. And money is a part of it; that’s why I go to work. But money is not my only motor: I love my job very much. To work and earn money in an area I love is a freedom I hunted down and achieved. I gained in quality of life, I feel blessed!

How can you get to feel this way? Work with yourself everyday; work on your concepts of abundance, money and wealth:

• The principle of life is towards growth, evolution and expansion. The universe is abundant and generous. So, your life grows, evolves and expands; your life is abundant and generous.

• You should be happy, healthy and prosperous. It is your right to be wealthy and free of material barriers

• Try repeating to yourself several times a day these powerful words: “FREEDOM” and “WEALTH” independently from each other.

Being aware of these points and repeating the last two powerful words will change the patterns by which you live and see life. Most people live in the world of “without” or “I don’ have”: change your state of mind to a more constructive and satisfying one.

Decide to live in “Wealth and Freedom”; you’ll see that it feels very good to be conscious of the treasures we have in our everyday life, one feels grateful for life. It’s definitely one of the best feelings and surely one of the many sources of happiness.

In The Power of Your Subconscious Mind,there’s a statement to repeat several times a day, it’s a scientific or affirmative prayer that can help you to have a better relationship with money. I quote:

“I like money…I use it wisely, constructively and judiciously. Money is constantly circulating in my life. I release it with joy, and it returns to me multiplied in a wonderful way. It is good and very good. Money flows to me in avalanches of abundance.  I use it for good only, and I am grateful for my good and for the riches of my mind.”

Be consequent, I can tell out of personal experience that Affirmative Praying does work wonders. Here are some other posts about Self Programming:

Your own Mind, the power to transform your life
Choose to be happy: how Affirmative Prayer programs your mind
Motivate your life with Self-Programming

It can be anything.
But sometimes you don’t even know what to wish for although you know something’s missing.

• Renewing the love you have or
• Finding that “someone” special to love and be loved by
• Cultivating warm and deep family relationships
• Developing a great hobby
• Being really good at something you love
• Doing a job that you can be passionate about

I encourage you to make contact with the eternal source of wisdom that is the Universal Mind. Remember that even though you might not know the questions, let alone the answers, the fact that you are conscious that there has to be more or that you can give more of you is actually inspired by those energies in charge of your development as a human being with infinite potential. The Universal source that makes you conscious of that need for change knows all the answers, connect with it and let yourself be inspired.

Here is a short exercise to make contact with the Universal Source of Wisdom that guides us all.

What, when and where:
Prayers and auto-suggestions work at best right before you doze to sleep and when they’re the very first thought when waking up. They also work better in those moments of peace and silence, where there’s no chance to be disturbed.
Everyday, twice a day or more, when the conditions allow it, repeat the following text or make your own prayer according to your personal needs, and in a tone you personally use to communicate with the universe.
Be patient and consequent. Repeat this everyday, at least twice a day. Trust the power of the divinity in you and the universe.

The Powers of my Mind-Spirit, in connection with the eternal Wisdom of the Universal Mind, guide me to the place where I belong in this life. Supreme intelligence inspires me to discover the area where I can grow and make my life and that of others around me even better. Deep joy and motivation are motors of my life.

I am capable of recognizing and appreciating the goodness of life
I am capable of truly living life
I am capable of making life beautiful

For that I’m thankful

There’s a book that inspires me very much and it’s called The Power of Your Subconscious Mind. It speaks about how your mind works and gives many examples of affirmative prayer or self-programming. I not only mention my own power or the powers of my own mind in my prayers or self-programming sessions; I am very conscious that our power is directly connected with the powers of the universe and that they are of cosmic nature.

How many of you have heard “that’s life”, “some things will never change”, “you never know what can happen”, or “why even bother?” These common phrases keep you expecting the worse. Hearing them enough is also a way of self-programming. Your mind accepts these messages as true and executes them without discerning whether it’s good or bad. This is how the mind works.

If you live and think in fear, then that what you fear will come true.
Choose to live and think with trust and love in life’s wisdom, then a lovely life full of self- trust will manifest.

Self-programming works faster than you can ever imagine. In one week, since “choosing to be happy” and reinforcing this goal through self-programming (also called affirmative prayer), I got the job of my dreams in a great place, working with great people.

On the very day I quit my old job (a very progressing company but a depressing place to work at), my soon-to-be boss called me to ask if I would be interested in working with him. After his call I just sat down speechless: in shock and awe at the power of my self-programming sessions.
It was a very hard decision to quit my job without having anything else in my hands except my trust on the Universal Wisdom. I was just simply happy and grateful towards life.

Starting to consciously pray in an affirmative way will improve your relationships incredibly, and the way you approach life and how you feel is like a sort of small re-birth. And this state of happiness you can renew everyday; you’ll feel blessed.

Being this such a wonderful state to be in, I want to share these practical exercises with you. It is my intention to contage you with happiness.

What, when and where:
Prayers and auto-suggestions work at best right before you doze to sleep and when they’re the very first thought when waking up. Also in those moments of peace and silence, where there’s no chance to be disturbed.
Everyday, twice a day or more, when the conditions allow it, repeat the following text or make your own prayer according to your personal needs, and in a tone you personally use to communicate with the universe.

Be patient and consequent. Repeat this everyday, at least twice a day. Trust the power of the divinity in you and the universe. Choose happiness.

I CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY. I AM FREE.
The powers of my mind-spirit, in connection with the eternal Wisdom of the Universal Mind, open my inner doors to happiness.
Beauty, Truth and Goodness burst inside of me and fill every cell of my body with genuine joy.
Beauty, Truth and Goodness grow and expand outside of my body filling every single part of my life with blessings.
Everything I touch is beauty, the universe is wonderful
and I AM HAPPY and thankful for this gift

With this exercise you will discover that what one often hears: “happiness is real at moments, and it’s not a constant state to be at” is not at all true. People sometimes describe being happy as being “high”, laughter and joy unlimited.
Experience has taught me that “being happy” is actually a constant state in life, if you choose it to be. This state of happiness is sometimes affected by bad news or events, but you’re core element remains untouched. And as time heals, you always return to be your normal happy self.

It’s wonderful when you ask someone, if they could choose “what to do” or “where to be”, and their answer is:

I choose to be here doing exactly what I’m doing now.

This, my friends, is real freedom!

Your mind, as a substantial part of the universal mind, has the power to work miracles, it has the power to create and transform life.

Modern Physics (Quantum Physics) have proved without a doubt that even the smallest atomic particle found on earth and the biggest and farthest star on this universe are both part of a single and inseparable net of relationships. This invisible “net”, the space between the tangible, is inseparable – in function and substance – from that which is perceivable. This so-called “emptiness” makes the tangible possible, it allows function. Mind, spirit, our world and the universe are one; some parts of it you see, some you don’t. But these connections are real, whether we understand them or not.

Everything you find in the world was created by “the mind”. Your own world is also created mostly by your mind. Make contact with the grandiosity of the universal mind and heal your world.

Fill your thoughts with ideas of love, harmony, health, joy, and prosperity. The power of your mind will make them manifest in your material world. Deepen those thoughts; make them an integral part of who you are.

Illness, problems, war, and poverty -amongst others- have been targeted by trying to change its outward manifestation. The real sources that originated these sad realities have been entirely ignored.

The place to start the change is inside of you, me and everybody.

If you change the source, it is impossible to get the same outcome.
The source is your mind.

Our minds have many parts. We’ll concentrate about the conscious mind and the subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind has total control over your vital functions, those activities which we cannot control consciously. Your subconscious mind literally builds and regenerates your body every single second of your life.

As soon as a concept nests in your subconscious mind, it reacts like a computer: your subconscious mind follows exactly the orders given, without discriminating whether it’s a healthy or harming command. This makes things a tiny bit difficult in a world full of “you can’t”, “it’s not gonna happen”, and “life’s so difficult”.

The good news is that the main purpose of your subconscious mind is to preserve you and heal you. Its main goal is to create, not to destroy; and affirmative prayer, also known as scientific prayer, is a powerful transformation tool. Constructive concepts will always substitute or prevail over wrong-doing concepts.

Keep yourself busy with thoughts of health, truth, happiness, and harmony. And don’t worry that negative concepts may appear. The key to this is to let negative thoughts go as soon as they appear, don’t stop on them. Just go on with your thoughts of love, prosperity, and joy. Live these wonderful realities in your mind, feel as if you already had them, visualize them vividly.

It is also important that you check your life consciously. Observe where you are strong and where you are weak or incomplete. Check for  ideas and concepts associated with the areas you would like to strengthen or completely change.

Start visualizing yourself the way you want to be; re-program yourself. Always remember that your mind is connected with a universal power, which supports you: The Universal Mind. You’re not alone; heal and grow.

The best times to do these visualizations are right when you wake up and right before falling asleep. Those are the times when your conscious mind is more relaxed than usual. And be constant, it has worked real wonders for me.

If you want to know more about your mind and how it works for you, I recommend this book: The Power of Your Subconscious Mind. This is one of few books I consider to be my dearest; this book has seen me transform into the person I am today, it has changed my life and will continue to do so.
