Happy Wednesday! I’m in the middle of Spring Break and enjoying my time off but can’t forget Wellness Wednesday.
Today we continue through the alphabet with Deepak Chopra and Adam Plack from the ‘Soul of Healing Affirmations’ with the letter J.
‘J stands for Judge not today
Judgment creates turbulence in our mind
And when there is turbulence in our mind then it interferes with the creativity of our soul
Creativity and judgment don’t go together
Judgment also means letting go of the need to classify things, to call them either right or wrong
To label, to define, to describe, to evaluate, to analyze
Let go today
Judge not today
Today I will practice non judgment
This affirmation is about releasing the need to be judgmental
Just make this your lesson today
Consider what happens when you judge someone
It makes another person wrong, someone else is wrong to feel in a certain way, to look a certain way, to hold certain opinions
Judgment immediately creates separation
Any person who is ‘wrong’ then becomes THEM
The need to judge arises from the need to be isolated; this is the ego’s form of defense
But at the same time you’re pulling away from your true self
The same walls that keep other people away also shut off the flow of spirit
When you learn not to judge you are basically saying: I’m willing to let anything in without deciding first whether it is good or bad.
In the practice of openness you will be inviting your soul to be intimate with you
So put your attention in your heart right now and just repeat to yourself:
Today, I will judge nothing that occurs
Today, I will judge nothing that occurs
Today, I will judge nothing that occurs
And by letting go of my judgments today, I will experience silence in my mind
By shedding the burden of judgment today, I will experience silence in my mind
And in this silence I will find the ecstatic impulse which is also the evolutionary impulse of the Universe
And I will align myself with the ecstatic evolutionary impulse of the Universe by letting go of all my judgments
Today, I will not classify, I will not label, I will not define, I will not describe, I will not evaluate, I will not analyze
Today, I will shed the burden of judgment’
Peace and Love,
