M stands for Mindfulness

Hello! Welcome back to Wellness Wednesday! My apologies for missing last week, I’ve been a little overwhelmed with school and personal life. School ends in a few weeks, May 26th to be exact, so there is a little anxiety to get everything done by then. Currently, I’m taking 2 classes: Microbiology and Sociology to finish off my prerequisites. And the past few weekends have been all about birthday parties. No complaints though, all fun and positive.

Today I continue in a series I’ve been posting from Deepak Chopra and Adam Plack called ‘Soul of Healing Affirmation’ with the letter M.

M stands for Mindfulness:

‘M stands for Mindfulness

Mindfulness is also ever present witnessing awareness

It is the stillness in which we find ourselves

In stillness, I find my true self

Today, I offer my thoughts to the service of spirit

I will use my thoughts wisely and respect their power

This affirmation is also about taking responsibility

After saying this affirmation end by sitting still and consciously bringing everyone you know into your awareness

See them coming together in a town square

Imagine that you are the leader of this gathering with the power to hurt or benefit anyone you wish

Now look over all of the faces gazing up at you and say ‘I will use my power wisely’

In this promise you acknowledge your role in everyone’s healing

Today, I offer my thoughts to the service of spirit

In stillness, I find my true self

Remember this affirmation is about awareness

As you go about your day be mindful of your awareness

Sometimes it will be restless and active

This usually occurs when outside events press asking for reactions

But at other times your awareness will be still within itself

You will watch instead of act

You will become the ever present witnessing awareness

You will find yourself being the observer and from the perspective of your soul, that is who you really are

Activity comes and goes but the observer is steady and ever present

As you begin to identify with the observer you will become less attached to things that change

The unchanging is truly who you are

Repeat to yourself:

In stillness, I find my true self

In stillness, I find my true self

In stillness, I find my true self

Today, I offer my thoughts to the service of spirit

I will use my thoughts wisely and respect their power’

 

Love & Peace,
