Letter to Louise - Affirmations

[Guest guest]

" Dear Louise,

Whenever I begin using affirmations, bad things start

happening. You touched on this in your book YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE ---

how we'll affirm prosperity, then lose our wallet. Please expand on

this as soon as possible, as I am getting discouraged. Thank You So

Much. "

" Dear One,

Lots of us have so many negative messages in our subconscious mind

that when we begin a program of positive self-improvement, we really

stir up the pot, and all sorts of negative things come to the

surface. I remember that in my early days, every time I did positive

affirmations, I would hurt my body. This came from my old message of

believing I deserved all the beatings I received as a child.

You will go beyond this period. Be very aware that this is just

old stuff surfacing, and it cannot hurt you. Look at it in a positive

way and say to yourself: " This is only old junk coming to the

surface. I am clearing it, and I am safe. " Also, give yourself a

month of constantly forgiving everybody in your past with whom you

have had problems. You might want to affirm in regard to each such

person: I FORGIVE YOU, AND I SET YOU FREE. Remember, you deserve to

be happy and free! "
