We’re just over half way through our adventure in changing our consciousness about health. We’ve made our declarations, and re-committed ourselves to them. We have done our forgiveness processes. We have meditated, done Spiritual Mind Treatments, and affirmations. We have remembered that what we predominantly focus on is what we will manifest in our lives.
I believe in health. I believe in physical, mental and emotional health, and I believe it is possible for all of us. I KNOW there is a Divine Pattern of Health that is much greater than any condition we might have manifested. When it seems like things aren’t working the way I want them to, I refuse to live in fear. When I become afraid, I have to ask myself, "Where's my strength? Where's the power?" It always come back to God.
Do we really believe in a Power that is infinitely intelligent and unconditionally loving or do we have a wimpy god? What ever we believe about God is what we believe about ourselves. There IS a Principle within us that responds to whatever we are choosing for ourselves. If I choose illness (yes, I know we would never consciously choose illness – but we choose it by our actions – where we put our focus) I get to experience more illness. If I choose wellness – I get to experience more wellness.
When I sat down and made my declaration for health at the beginning of our Thank God We’re Healthy campaign, all the Power of the Universe was behind that declaration, attracting to me instantly all I would need for my choice to be made manifest. When I veered off into illness thinking, that Power followed me, again making my dominant thoughts manifest. I must be vigilant in my thinking! And I must trust that Power to do It’s work.
Jesus told us to “Pray believing it is so, and it will be.” In Religious Science we realize we are “praying without ceasing” through our thoughts. Where are your thoughts right now concerning your health?
Come back to your Path, claim the Power, be vigilant and let the Power do It’s work!!

Day 36
Day 36
One of our participants has been working on quitting smoking .. she wrote the other day and said she’d “fallen off the wagon” but was getting back on and doing her work.
BRAVO!!
None of us are perfect – and after year or months of a habit (whether it be smoking, or habitual thinking about some condition) very few can just quit cold turkey! It’s nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to feel guilty for. The important thing is to get back into the new groove!
Remember records? Those plastic things we used to listen to and be so careful of because if they got scratched – the needle would get stuck in the rut and drive us crazy!?!? It’s almost like a dominant thought creates a groove in your brain that gets deeper and deeper, so that any thought that’s remotely like it, falls into that groove.
This a good reason for affirmations! It is said that saying affirmations with feeling and belief can create a new pathway that overrides the previous ones in 21 days. You have to pick some that really resonate with you. My favourite is:
Divine Mind now assists me in attaining the consciousness of ________.
Remember, we’re doing our healing work from the inside out – so we’re building a healing consciousness!! I KNOW we are supported in every step we take by The Divine and I am so grateful!!
__________

Day 35
A good day to pray:
I breathe deeply, allowing myself to settle into my Spirit. In this peaceful place, I feel the powerful Presence of The Divine. I sense the infinite intelligence. I feel the unconditional love. I am in awe of knowing I am the beloved in whom God is well pleased.
As I sit with this feeling, I notice a shift in my consciousness. All old stories of dis-ease are gently falling away like autumn leaves. They have done their service and are finished.
In their place a sense of newness is born. A feeling of vitality floods my cells and radiates out into my world. I am healthy! On every level of my being, I am healthy!
This is my Truth. This is my new story and I am sticking to it. I am so grateful for the constant Presence in my life. I am grateful the life I am living is an extension of God Life, and I make it good, very good.
Gratefully I release these words, knowing they are so. And so it is.

Day 34
Sometimes when we’re talking about our health, we say “my bad back”, “my cancer”, “my depression” etc., as if that condition was an entity that we own and live with – just like we say “my cat” or “my dog.”
I wish I could find a poem I once read called “Adam Names the Animals.” When I read that poem years ago, I realized that we get to experience what ever we name.
Every time I use the phrase “my bad back,” I am telling the Universe I want to experience more of the effects of that condition I have claimed as my own. The Universe says YES – that is the only word It knows. The Universe cannot say “Sorry – even though you’ve been thinking about the condition for months, and are still claiming it, I can’t give it to you because you Treated about it this morning.” It can only give you more of what you are focused on.
Where is your focus right now? What are you claiming for yourself?
Oh I know – You’re focused on and claiming your Highest Good!!
Affirm: I am healthy in mind, emotions and body!

Day 33
I received an e-mail the other day that basically said “you can’t just think yourself well.”
OK, if one believes that – then they have to live by it. The basic Law in this dimension is IT IS DONE UNTO YOU AS YOU BELIEVE.
I agree healing has to be balanced on all levels of our being. If we’re Treating to lose weight, and continue to eat big, huge, yummy desserts every meal, we are counteracting our Treatment. That is, if we believe dessert is bad for us.
When I was studying for the ministry with Rev. Helen Street in Honolulu, HI., our class used to go out for snacks after class. One night the topic of conversation was about how bad sugar is for us, and Helen reached out and drew the sugar bowl towards her, and put her hands around it. She leaned down and whispered in a stage-whisper, “It’s ok, sugar, everyone still loves you.” We all laughed, and then realized it wasn’t the actual sugar that was harmful to us – it was our beliefs about it!
Doing our spiritual practices will lead us into healthy living. If we really trust the Infinite Intelligence within us, we will be guided to the right foods, the right practitioners, the right methodologies to facilitate our healing.

Day 32
In the classic book by Raymond Charles Barker, Treat Yourself to Life, he writes:
"The center of your life is within you, flowing out from you to the circumference. The circumference you call your world, your experience. Realize, however, that the circumference could not be unless there was a creative center within you. This creative center in the midst of you is called by most religions the Spirit of God. It is self-evident that life arises at the center and moves to the circumference. It is self-evident that in the world of which you are the center, you are the only thinker."
Meditate on this today. At the centre of you is You!! It is all powerful, unconditionally loving, and the divine pattern of perfect health. Let that Beloved Energy nurture you today. Let it continue to move from the center of your Being and fill every cell of your body with Light, every thought of your mind with Peace, and every beat of your heart with Love.

Day 31
When we’re not feeling comfortable in our bodies or in our lives, we tend to focus on that discomfort. As we focus on it, it gets worse, so we focus on it even more. We set up a cycle of energy that creates more and more discomfort.
Ernest Holmes, the founder of Religious Science, wrote: "When a man's thought rests entirely on himself, he becomes abnormal and unhappy but when he gives himself with enthusiasm to any legitimate purpose, losing himself in the thing in which he is doing, he becomes normal and happy. Let the one who is sad, depressed, or unhappy find some altruistic purpose into which he may pour his whole being and he will find a new inflow of life of which he has never dreamed."
In other words, to get out of the cycle – do something for someone else!
Now you might say to me “You don’t understand, I hurt too much to do anything” or “I don’t have any money to do anything for anyone” or ???.
Doing something for someone else doesn’t have to be BIG – you can pick up the phone and tell someone how much you appreciate them …. You can write someone a letter. You can offer to walk someone’s dog.
The point is to be of service. Years ago I picked up a greeting card and read “The best exercise for the heart is reaching out and helping someone up.” That has stuck with me for many years, and it works! If I am feeling down, when I reach out to serve someone else, I am able to get out of my ‘pity-party’ and for the time I am serving them, I am not thinking about what’s wrong with me!! I give that cycle a rest … and if I do it consciously enough, I break that cycle, and pretty soon begin to feel lighter, and more healthy in all areas of my life!
Try it today!
Affirm: I am ready and willing to be of service to my world.
