Welcome a to Affirmations!!

[Guest guest]

Tell us why positive thinking is important to you?

I feel that our world's energy could be changed if we

all thought positively instead of anger, judgement of

others, fear, etc. Thinking positive creates a healthy

environment for mind, body and spirit.

Please answer the following:

Email Name (for group members to know) - a

2) Are you currently under stress & needing tools

for handling the stress better? Please explain.

Yes, the past several years have been challenges for me: I

had a miscarriage, my sister died of cancer last march

(I helped her to come to peace with her death and was

with her when she passed, my dad just died

unexpectedly Sept. 18 of this year, I have recently

been diagnosed infertile due to a endocrine disease, I

have been taking care of my mother driving her around

errands, etc. and I am was recently put on prozac 10

mg (which has helped me a lot). I am a normally very

balanced person who meditates and has a strong faith

in God and used to take herbal supplements. Now, I am

off balance and find it hard to believe I have to take

medicines for high blood pressure and stress. I do

know that genetically high blood pressure does run in

my family. I am 41 and have had high BP for

years.However, I just lost 22 pounds and look great.

3) What type of group are you looking for, & what do

you expect to get out of this group?

Meeting new

friends that also strive to think positively,

peacefully, and release the negative feelings of one's

past whether by parental conditioning (learned

behavior)or other circumstances.

4) What resources, knowledge, or experience do you

feel that you can contribute back to this group?

I am sincere when listening to others and very good at

giving postive feedback when asked. I work at a school

in Campus Ministry where I co-moderate a teen youth

ministry group. I respect different

religions/spiritual paths and have explored these

paths myself.
