Affirmations are a powerful tool for healing and personal development that can actually be improved upon with the use of technology. I’ve recently found a 30-minute presentation of healing affirmations that is clearly a total mind experience, engaging both hemispheres of the brain with sound that travels (with headphones) like a rainbow arc from one side to the other. And I’m doing something a bit unusual with it.
Since I don’t personally need the physical healing, I change each affirmation so it will apply to my son. For instance:
“I am a radiant being filled with healing energy” becomes
“Ash is a radiant being filled with healing energy.”
“I am grateful for my body’s ability to heal itself” becomes
“Ash and I are grateful for his body’s ability to heal itself.”
There is a threefold advantage to this:
Firstly, it is essentially thirty minutes of prayer directed at someone. It is a connection that transcends physical boundaries. Furthermore, I believe that all is ultimately one consciousness, so we are literally working with another aspect of Self when we offer our thoughts and emotions to another.
Secondly, it helps me (as my son’s mom) to relax, to experience peace and the ability to trust in his own healing capabilities. This also serves to keep me grounded, centered, and focused on how I can contribute within our physical (home) environment throughout the day.
Thirdly, it creates a positive environment. Our home with its nurturing energies can impact my son’s emotional and mental well-being by fostering safety, love, and encouragement. This nurturing space can be powerful in promoting overall healing and resilience.
Check out the YouTube video here, which was created by Christine Breese, founder of University of Metaphysical Sciences (and she uses it for her own healing journey).
I’m going to give it a try through the month of August, giving some early morning time to my son while he sleeps, and see what happens. I invite mothers of children with special needs and all caregivers of ailing loved ones to give this magical application a try. I’d love to hear how it works for you!
Focusing always on wellness and what we can do to generate it can be immensely transformative as the human body replenishes itself at the cellular level, day after day, by our thoughts as much as by our physical efforts.
