Other Tools for Stress Reduction: Meditation and Affirmative Thinking
May 14, 2008
The Law of Attraction teaches us that like attracts like which means what you think about you bring about into your life. You can have anything that you want if you believe that you can have it. So if you think positively, not only will you attract good things into your life, but you will also serve your life’s purpose by achieving a state of well-being and joy.
Since the creation of the movie the “The Secret”, most people do not question that being more positive means that they will have more of what they want from life. The problem that most people encounter is that they have a hard time understanding how to get positive about the things that they don’t have. That is where meditation and affirmative thinking come in. Meditation and affirmative thinking are tools that help people remove, not just negative thoughts from their minds, but also the consequence of negative thinking which is stress from their lives as well.
Meditation is about connecting to your higher self. Your higher self exists in a state of emotion that is completely positive so; therefore, when you meditate you will become more positive and feel more relaxed. Practicing affirmations is the best way that I know to change a negative belief about something into a more positive one. A belief is just a thought that you keep thinking and an affirmation is practiced because someone wants to activate a positive new thought about a subject that they have a negative belief about. If the affirmation is practiced long enough then the subconscious mind will believe it and, when that happens, then the manifestation of what the individual wants must be.
I work with my clients to help them understand, not only is it possible for their stress to be reduced with Quantum Biofeedback, but I also teach them about the law of attraction and I teach them powerful tools such as meditation and affirmative thinking so that they can better manage their own stress in the future.
“The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity” by Catherine Ponder
May 7, 2008
Yesterday I listened to a recorded conference that Catherine Ponder gave years ago for her book “The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity”. I actually read the book and I read another one of her books but I was astounded by how my feelings about prosperity have changed since I listened to it so I decided to write what I learned on my blog so others can benefit from what she said as well.
The Psychological Laws of Prosperity:
Catherine Ponder says that we must change our perspective to plenty which means that we must change from a discouraged disposition to a more joyful disposition about money. She says that being truly prosperous means that you have peace of mind, health and that you are plentiful. She says that we must become friendly to the idea of prosperity. The reason why is because some people believe that it is sinful to prosper because of the teachings about prosperity from some religions. She states that it is our divine right to prosper.
The Cleansing Laws of Prosperity:
Next Catherine Ponder states that we must get rid of what we do not want in our lives so we can make room for what we do want. She actually means this quite literally. She gave examples of students of hers who cleaned out their closets from their home to make way for the new good that will come into their lives. She said that this process speaks to the subconscious mind and helps to literally allow the new good to come into a person’s life. She also says that we must write what we want to eliminate from our lives as well so to eliminate error and expand our good. She also states that holding grudges keeps people from their prosperity as well and says that we must forgive which means to give up all grudges. She says that we must write two lists: one for those who we must forgive and another for those who must forgive us. She also mentions that we must release those who have dominated us and/or who we have dominated. She says that domination is another way that we can keep prosperity from us as well.
The Creative Laws Of Prosperity:
Catherine Ponder says one way to mentally create prosperity is to write what we want down. She says writing what we want down helps us to get definite about prosperity so prosperity can get definite about us. She says that the written word goes out to the end of the Universe to make it happen for us. She says that we must keep lists of what we want private so other’s negativity about what we want does not influence us. Another way to create prosperity, she says, is to think of prospering words which means we must practice affirmations (I’ve listed some below that I wrote down while I listened to her lecture). Finally, she says, the last way to create prosperity is through visualization. She says that the picturing power of the mind is a powerful way to attract what it is that we desire. She says that we must be specific in what we want because generalities do not invoke change and do not get results. She says we cannot fight problems in our minds. Instead, she says, we must visualize our way out of them. And finally she mentions that this process takes practice. It takes lots of practice because what we want has to be absorbed and accepted first by the subconscious mind before it will ever come to pass.

Thinking Positive
March 26, 2008
A lot of the work that I do with my clients, who come to me for Quantum Biofeedback sessions, is I teach them about the law of attraction. The law of attraction, by definition, says that that which is like unto itself is drawn and when you ask it is always given. This means that if you can convince yourself that you can have anything then it has to be yours. The issue is how do you convince yourself that you can have something when you believe that you cannot?
Because the most powerful law in the universe is the law of attraction and because everything is created through thought first, we must allow ourselves to imagine that we can have the well-being that we deserve. A belief is just a thought that you keep thinking and if you have a negative belief you must counteract it with a positive one. It is difficult to begin doing this because your conscious mind will tell you that you are lying to yourself. However, if you are persistent in practicing that you can have something that you want then you begin to feel like you already have it and when that happens that is when it comes into your life.
Affirmations are the best way that I know to change a negative focus into a positive one. My clients constantly ask me to give them affirmations that they can use on a daily basis so I’ve decided to include some of them here on my blog. The word God appears in many of these affirmations. If you do not believe in God, these affirmations can still serve you. The reason why people do not believe in God is because they have been taught, through many religions, that God is outside of them and people believe that there is no God because if there was then God would eliminate the evil from this planet. Through all that I have studied about the law of attraction, I have learned that there is no separation between what is God and what we are because each of us has unlimited power — God force within us — so; therefore, we are God too. The name of Christ also appears because He was a great teacher who revealed the true power of man. We are all special and we have not come here to rely on a God that is outside of us to create our lives — God has given the power of creation to each of us. So we must use it!
Please feel free to use these affirmations and if you have others that you like, please send them to me because I love collecting them.
