Morning Affirmations

I’d like to give you an easy and straightforward process that you can do every morning. What this does is begin to set the energy of the day, and set your personal energy, to a higher vibration. Many people don’t realize how they are affecting themselves and their day by simply hitting the alarm, rolling out of the nice warm bed, and going to the bathroom, or making coffee, or whatever, before they are even in their bodies and fully awake.

This leads to the morning getting off to a rather chaotic start, where you do something hilarious like brushing your teeth with some ointment instead of the tooth paste, yet millions do this very thing every single day. I want to show you how to simply and easily change that habit into one that will serve you better and have you feeling better throughout the day. If you’ve been a regular reader of my site here, then you know that the first thing I recommend for anyone, at any time, is to get grounded. Using the grounding techniques when you first wake up gets you back into your body fully and completely, and gets you back into the center of your head, where you need to be to function properly. Now let’s talk about affirmations.

Your Words Have Power

The whole idea behind using any affirmation is three-fold. The first step is to begin to get the positive statements into your head, both on a conscious and subconscious level. This starts getting you used to saying positive messages about yourself which breaks up the habit of saying negative messages about yourself. This, in turn, will help you to be aware of when you do have negative internal thoughts. Then, you’ll be able to catch those negative thoughts and turn them into positive ones.

The second step is to allow the affirmations to activate the feelings each one invokes in you. When I say “your words have power”, that’s not an idle esoteric bemusing. It’s the truth. Why do your words have power? Because we assign ’emotion’ to each and every one of them. Now, the emotion may not be very big, say for a “common” word such as “and”, but there is still some emotional content there. Of course, for the words that have deep meaning, significance and relevance to our lives, the emotional content is huge! This is one of the reasons why one affirmation doesn’t work for everyone. We all have different levels of emotion and energy infused with each word or statement. What may have tremendous impact on you, may have little to no impact on me.

The third step is to allow the positive emotion that comes up from the affirmation to change your energy and vibration. You see, the idea is not to just say the affirmations “by rote” like you did in school, but to actually feel the emotional and energetic shift that takes place when you say them. When you are fully conscious and aware of that energy shift, you feel the good emotions even more. By having your attention and focus on allowing those better feeling thoughts and emotions, you become more in control of you. You are now deliberately creating how you feel.

I Choose How I Feel

Once you accept that fact, that you choose how you feel, you will begin to see how you’ve allowed your emotions to have their way with you, as it were, since forever. Very few of us are taught these things when we’re young and can use them to gift ourselves an amazing emotional life. I wasn’t taught this until I hit 30, so there was a lot of releasing of old patterns that had to take place, but the more I did these types of processes, the faster I was able to let go and be in charge of myself and allow myself to feel good. That is the whole point here, to feel better.

By deliberately and consciously choosing to feel better, no matter what may appear to be going on around you, you are actively deciding how your life is in the moment, and will be in the following moments. Abraham calls this being in the “Vortex”. This simply means that you are in alignment with your self, fully and completely and it feels really good when you do. Using the Morning Affirmation process is a great step in getting you there on a regular basis.

The Process

So, the clock has just gone off. Instead of bolting out of bed, keep your eyes closed and ground yourself. Be in the center of your head. Breathe easily. Now, begin to say, either out loud or to yourself, any or all of the following affirmations:

  • I give thanks and gratitude for the love that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the joy that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the peace that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the appreciation that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the healing that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the positivity that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the prosperity that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the wealth that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the generosity that flows to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the blessings that flow to me, through me and from me.
  • I give thanks and gratitude for the love that flows to me, through me and from me.

My current favorite affirmation that I say throughout the day, but most definitely first thing in the morning before I get up, really helps set the energy for the rest of the day:

  • I give thanks for this wonderful day. Miracle will follow miracle and my life is filled with love and wonders and joy and prosperity.
  • In just 5 minutes, you’ve completely changed your emotions, your energy and your mental outlook. Now you are in control of who you are and what you are becoming. In keeping with that idea, I highly suggest that you use an alarm clock that has a music option, instead of the typical buzzers and ringers. With music waking you up, you are much more relaxed and not in that immediate “WAKE UP!” mode the buzzers put you in. Your body will thank you for not having to deal with the adrenaline rush every morning.

    One other thing to note here, you don’t have to use these exact affirmations. Change the words, or the entire structure, to suit you. As long as the affirmations you do use have meaning for you and feel powerful to you is all that matters. Just do this every morning, and repeat them throughout the day if that feels good to do, and you’ll notice the change in the first two weeks. You’ll wake up with a smile on your face, and you’ll be ready to go into the day with excitement and enthusiasm.
