I surrender to joy.

PROBLEM

PROBABLE CAUSE

AFFIRMATION

Opposite the name in the table there are 2 columns - the cause of the disease and the mood for recovery or affirmation. We want to immediately explain what an affirmation is. An affirmation is a textual form of self-persuasion that must be repeated many times. Those who have already worked with Sytin's moods know that it is necessary not only to pronounce the text, but to literally imagine the image, the picture in this case of change, self-acceptance, and as a result, recovery.

Of course, it is difficult to immediately accept this simple truth that our illnesses are just unspoken negative emotions - anger, resentment, sadness, disappointment, even despair, despondency. It's easier to put the responsibility for your recovery and fate, for example, on a doctor, on your relatives, but will this help you, Louise Hay asks. The affirmation table is a kind of "heart-to-heart talk" with yourself, those problems that prevent you from becoming happy. In our opinion, the disease must be dealt with comprehensively. These are pills, and competent doctors, and of course the mood for the best.

LOUISE HAY

Louise Hay (birth name Lepta Kau, born October 8, 1926)- a self-made woman, the embodiment of the American dream. Even briefly reading her biography (difficult poor childhood, intense emotional background in the family, early pregnancy, cancer) you understand how much she had to go through before she came to the top - millions of copies of books (the most famous "Heal Your Life" came out in 1984) , fame, participation in television programs, shows, etc.

And although the ideas that Louise Hay carries in her books are as old as the world, however, few people apply them in life - we each rush so fast in our own orbit, someone is happy, someone is quite the opposite, and there is no time to stop and look on yourself from the side. In short, the writer teaches to understand and accept oneself, arguing that without this “base”, there is no successful future. The relationship between specific diseases and the internal state of a person is also clearly shown.

About developing self-love.

The writer claims that when we fully accept and love ourselves, life immediately begins to change for the better, even in small things. We begin to attract new interesting events, new people, financial prosperity appears, confidence in the future. All her affirmations are based on this belief. And these are not miracles, but a natural pattern in which people have forgotten how to believe!

Also, due to the complete acceptance of yourself, you begin to change outwardly, many are rapidly getting younger, the weight returns to normal, you feel a surge of strength and energy.

On self-perception and self-criticism

In no case should you criticize yourself, - L. Hay believes, allow yourself to be imperfect today, because many simply torment themselves with a lack of perfection in themselves, make some achievement an indispensable condition for self-love, for example: "I would love myself, if I had an ideal weight, and now ... no, which one of me is ideal? When and who weaned us to praise ourselves? Criticism creates a lot of problems. Of course, you need to strive for excellence, but not at the expense of happiness and health, after all. Believe me, the most beautiful people are happy people, and just at the moment when you stop biting yourself for your imperfections, they will evaporate like smoke.

At least for the sake of the experiment, give yourself time and do not criticize yourself, work with affirmations, you will see a result that will amaze you! It's about not about "selfishness", but about gratitude to God, to fate for the gift of life.

Without exception, all the events of your life until now have been created only by you, with the help of your beliefs based on past experience. They were created by you with the thoughts and words you used yesterday, last week, last month, last year, 10, 20, 30, 40 years ago, depending on your age.

However, everything is in the past. What matters is your choice of what to think and believe now. Always remember that these thoughts and words will create your future. Your strength is in the present moment. The present moment creates the events of tomorrow, next week, next month, next year, and so on. Notice what you are thinking at the moment as you read these lines. Are these thoughts positive or negative? Do you want these thoughts of yours to influence your future?

The only thing you need to work with, says Louise Hay, is your thought, and a thought can be consciously changed. No matter what the nature of your problem, it is only a reflection of your train of thought. For example, the thought flashed through your mind: “I am a bad person.” A thought entails a feeling that you give in to. If you did not have such a thought, the feeling would be absent. And thoughts can be consciously changed. Change the sad thought and the sad feeling will disappear. It doesn't matter how long in your life you thought negatively. Power is always in the present moment, not in the past. So let's get free, right now!

We tend to think about the same things over and over again, and therefore it seems to us that we do not choose our thoughts. And yet, the initial choice is ours. We refuse to think about anything specific. Remember how often we refuse to think positively about ourselves.

Well, now let's learn not to think negatively about ourselves. It seems to me that everyone on this planet, everyone I know, with whom I work, suffers from self-loathing and guilt to one degree or another. The more self-hatred we have, the less luck we have.

Types of resistance to change according to Louise Hay

If you think it's hard for you to change, then you're dealing with the hardest lesson of your life. But one should not abandon the idea of ​​change because of such resistance. You can work on two levels:
1. Consciously accept your resistance.
2. Constantly change.
Watch yourself, see how you resist and, in spite of this, change.
Our actions often indicate that we are resisting.
This can be expressed:
- changing the topic of conversation
- Desire to leave the room
- go to the toilet, be late,
- get sick
- look to the side or out the window;
- refusing to pay attention to anything,
- in the desire to eat, smoke, drink,
- end the relationship.

Wrong beliefs that prevent change

Beliefs. We grow up with beliefs that later become resistance. Here are some of our limited beliefs:
- It won't suit me.
- Men (women) should not do this,
- It's not like that in my family.
- Love is not for me, it's too stupid,
- Too far to go
- Too expensive,
- Takes a lot of time
- I do not believe in this,
- I'm not like that.

Signs of transferring responsibility to other people for their actions and failures

"They are". We distribute our power to others and use it as an excuse to resist change. We have the following ideas in mind:
- The moment is not right.
"They" won't let me change.
- I don't have the right teacher, book, class, etc.
- My doctor says differently.
- It's their fault.
- First they must change.
- They do not understand.
- It's against my beliefs, religion, philosophy.
- We think of ourselves: Too old.
- Too young.
- Too fat.
- Too skinny.
- Too high.
- Too small.
- Too lazy.
- Too strong.
- Too weak.
- Too stupid.
- Too poor.
- Too serious.
- Maybe all this is not for me.

Resistance to change due to fear of the unknown:

The biggest resistance in us is due to fear - FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN. Listen:
- I'm not ready.
- I can't do anything.
- What will the neighbors say?
- I don't want to open this "can of worms".
- And what will be the reaction of my parents (husband, wife, grandmother, etc.)?
- I know too little.
- What if I hurt myself?
- I don't want others to know about my problems.
- I do not want to talk about this.
- Too difficult.
- I do not have enough money.
- I will lose my friends.
- I trust no one.
- I'm not good enough for that.
And the list could go on forever.

In his books, L. Hay says: “Change your beliefs and your life will change! Every thought we have can be changed! If unwanted thoughts visit you all the time, catch yourself on such thoughts and tell them: “Out!” Instead, accept a thought that can bring you good luck."

How can you change? Three main principles underlie this:
1. Desire to change.
2. Mind control.
3. Forgiving yourself and others.

Resentment Dissolution Exercise

Sit somewhere quiet, relax. Imagine that you are in a darkened theater and there is a small stage in front of you. Put on the stage the person you need to forgive (the person you hate the most in the world). This person may be alive or dead, and your hatred may be both in the past and in the present. When you clearly see this person, imagine that something good is happening to him, something that is of great importance to this person. Imagine him smiling and happy. Hold this image in your mind for a few minutes and then let it disappear.

Then, when the person you want to forgive leaves the stage, put yourself there. Imagine that only good things happen to you. Imagine yourself happy (howling) and smiling (smiling). And know that there is enough goodness in the universe for all of us. This exercise dissolves the dark clouds of accumulated resentment. Some will find this exercise very difficult. Every time you make it, you can draw in your imagination different people. Do this exercise once a day for a month and see how much easier life becomes for you.

Exercise "Mental representation"

Imagine yourself as a small child (5-6 years old). Look deeply into this child's eyes. Try to see deep longing and understand that this longing is for love for you. Reach out your arms and hug this little child, hold him to your chest. Tell him how much you love him. Say that you admire his mind, and if he makes mistakes, then this is nothing, everyone makes them. Promise him that you will always come to his aid if necessary.

Now let the child become very small, the size of a pea. Put it in your heart. Let him settle there. When you look down, you will see his little face and you will be able to give him all your love, which is so important to him. Now imagine your mother when she was 4-5 years old, scared and longing for love. Stretch out your hands to her and tell her how much you love her. Tell her that she can count on you no matter what.

When she calms down and feels safe, take her to your heart. Now imagine your father as a little boy of 3-4 years old, he is also very afraid of something and cries loudly, inconsolably. You will see tears streaming down his face. You now know how to soothe small children, Hold him to your chest and feel his trembling body. Calm him down. Let him feel your love. Tell him that you will always be by his side. When his tears dry, let him also become very tiny. put it in your heart with you and your mom. Love them all, for there is nothing more sacred than the love of little children. There is enough love in your heart to heal our entire planet. But let's heal ourselves first. Feel the warmth spreading through your body, softness and tenderness. Let this precious feeling begin to change your life.

Louise Hay's exercise against negative statements

Take a piece of paper and make lists of all the negative things your parents said about you. It takes at least half an hour to remember such details. What did they say about money? What did they say about your body? About love and relationships between people? About your abilities? If you can, look at this list objectively and say to yourself, “So that’s where I get these thoughts from!”

So let's take a blank sheet of paper and go a little further. Who else have you constantly heard negative statements from?
- From relatives.
- From teachers.
- From friends.
- From those who represented power.

Write it all down. When you write all this, see how you feel. Two sheets of paper that you have written on are thoughts that you urgently need to get rid of! These are just the thoughts that prevent you from living.

Exercise with a mirror

I ask the patient to take a mirror, look into his eyes and, mentioning his name, say: "I love you and accept you as you are." This is incredibly difficult for some! I see how different people react to this - some start crying, others get angry, and still others say they can't do it. One of my patients even threw a mirror at me and ran away. It took him several months to finally be able to look at himself in the mirror without experiencing negative emotions.

Exercise "Decision to change"

The attitude of many of us towards life is primarily a feeling of helplessness. We have long given up on life with its hopelessness and hopelessness. For some, the cause is countless disappointments, for others, constant pain, and so on. But the result is the same for everyone - complete failure from life and unwillingness to see yourself and your life in a completely different way, says L. Hay. Well, if you asked yourself the question: “what exactly causes constant disappointments in my life?”

What is it that you give away so generously that causes others to annoy you so much? Everything you give, you get back. The more irritated you are, the more you create situations that irritate you. I wonder if you were annoyed now, reading the previous paragraph? If yes, then that's great! That's why you need to change!

Now let's talk about change and our desire to change, says Louise Hay. We all want our lives to change, but we don't want to change ourselves. Let someone else change, let "they" change, and I'll wait. In order to change anyone else, you must first change yourself.

And you must change internally. We must change the way we think, the way we speak, and what we say. Only then will the real change come. I personally have always been stubborn, the author recalls. Even when I made the decision to change, this stubbornness got in the way. But I still knew that this was where I needed to change. The more I hold on to a statement, the clearer it becomes to me that it is from that statement that I need to free myself.

And only when you are convinced of this from your own experience, you can teach others. It seems to me that all excellent spiritual teachers had an unusually difficult childhood, went through pain and suffering, but learned to free themselves, which they began to teach others. Many good teachers are constantly working on themselves and this becomes their main occupation in life.

Exercise "I want to change"

Repeat the phrase: "I want to change" as often as possible. While saying this phrase to yourself, touch your throat. The throat is the center where all the energy needed for change is concentrated. And be ready for change when it enters your life.

Know also that if you think that somewhere you are unable to change yourself, that is where you need to change. “I want to change. I want to change." The forces of the Universe will automatically help you in your intention, and you will be surprised to discover more and more positive changes in your life.

METHODOLOGY for attracting financial stability

If you follow the advice of Louise Hay, then in order to receive an endless stream of blessings and abundance from the Universe, you must first create a mental attitude that accepts abundance. If you don't, then no matter how much you say you want something, you won't be able to let it into your life. But it doesn't matter how long you've been thinking about yourself "I'm a loser"! It's just a thought and you can choose a new one instead, right now!

Take a few minutes to focus on the success and prosperity you want to bring into your life by doing the exercise below. Record your answers on a separate piece of paper or in your diary.

How do you use money

Louise Hay recommends writing down three critiques about how you handle money. For example, you are constantly in debt, do not know how to save or enjoy the fact that you have them. Recall one example from your life when your actions did not follow these undesirable patterns.

For example:
I criticize myself for spending too much money and always getting into debt. I can't balance my budget.
I commend myself for paying all my bills this month. I make payments on time and with joy.

Working with a mirror
Stand with your arms outstretched and say: "I am open and receptive to every good." What do you feel about it? Now look in the mirror and say this affirmation again, feeling it. What kind of feelings do you have? Do you feel a sense of release from _________? (fill in the gap yourself) L. Hay advises doing this exercise every morning. This wonderfully symbolic gesture can heighten your prosperity consciousness and bring more blessings into your life.

Your feelings about money
According to Louise, it is necessary to examine your feelings of self-worth regarding money. Answer the following questions as honestly as possible.
1. Go to the mirror again. Look yourself in the eye and say, “When it comes to money, my biggest fear is…” Then write down your response and explain why you are feeling this way.
2. What did you learn about money as a child?
3. What era did your parents grow up in? What were their thoughts about money?
4. How was finance handled in your family?
5. How do you handle money now?
6. What would you like to change in your awareness of money and attitude towards it?

Ocean of Plenty with Louise Hay

Your prosperity consciousness does not depend on money; on the contrary, this cash flow depends on your prosperity consciousness. When you can imagine more, more will come into your life.

Imagine that you are standing on a seashore, looking out into the ocean and knowing that it reflects the abundance available to you. Look at your hands and see what kind of vessel you are holding in them. What is it - a teaspoon, a thimble with a hole, a paper cup, a glass cup, a jug, a bucket, a basin - or maybe a pipe connected to this ocean of abundance?

Look around and pay attention: no matter how many people are standing next to you and no matter what vessels they have in their hands, there will be enough water for everyone. You cannot rob another, and others cannot rob you.

Your vessel is your consciousness, and it can always be exchanged for a larger vessel. Do this exercise as often as possible to experience a sense of expansion and boundless flow.

Method for getting rid of any disease

When dealing with any medical problem, it is important to talk to a medical professional. However, it is equally important to discover the roots of the disease within yourself. It is not possible to completely cure ill-health by dealing with the physical symptoms alone. Your body will continue to manifest sickness until you heal the emotional and spiritual issues that are the source of this sickness.

By doing the exercises below, you will get a better idea of own thoughts about health. (Please write your answers on a separate piece of paper or in your diary.)

Let go of health problems

True healing embraces the body, mind and spirit. I believe that if we "treat" an illness but don't deal with the emotional and spiritual issues that surround the illness, it will only reappear. So, are you ready to let go of the need that has contributed to your health problems? Keep in mind that when you have a state that you want to change, the first thing to do is to say, "I'm ready to let go of my need that created this state." Say it again. Repeat while looking in the mirror. Repeat this phrase whenever you think about your condition. This is the first step towards creating change.

The role of illness in your life

Now complete the following statements, trying to speak as honestly as possible:
1. I make myself sick in the following way...
2. I get sick when I try to avoid...
3. When I get sick, I always want ...
4. When I was sick as a child, my mother (my father) always ...
5. When I am sick, I am most afraid of ...

Your family history
Then take your time and do the following:
1. List all of your mother's illnesses.
2. List all of your father's illnesses.
3. List all your illnesses.
4. Do you see any connection between them?

Your beliefs about being unhealthy
Let's take a closer look at your beliefs about unhealthiness. Answer the following questions:
1. What do you remember about your childhood illnesses?
2. What did you learn about illness from your parents?
3. Did you enjoy being sick as a child, and if so, why?
4. Have you retained any beliefs about illness since childhood that you continue to act on to this day?
5. How do you contribute to your health?
6. Would you like to change the state of your health? If yes, how exactly?

Self-worth and health
Now let's explore the issue of self-worth in relation to your health. Answer the following questions. After each answer, say one or more of the positive affirmations below to counteract the negative belief.
1. Do you feel like you deserve good health?
2. What is your biggest fear about your health?
3. What do you "get" from this belief?
4. What negative consequences do you fear if you let go of this belief?

Illness treatment scenario

I accept health as the natural state of my being. I am now consciously releasing any inner mental patterns that may in any way express themselves as unhealthy. I love and approve of myself. I love and approve of my body. I feed him healthy food and drinks. I exercise it in ways that give me pleasure. I recognize my body as a wonderful and magnificent machine and consider it a privilege to be able to live in it. I love to feel the abundance of energy. All is well in my world.

LOUISE HAY'S METHOD for getting rid of addictions (drugs, smoking, alcohol)

No book, let alone a single chapter, can completely replace therapy and 12-step programs in addiction recovery. However, change starts from within. Even the most best programs cannot help you if you are not ready to give up your addiction.

It's time to create a new vision for your future and let go of any beliefs and thoughts that don't support it. You can begin this process of changing your worldview by doing the following exercises. Record your answers on a separate piece of paper or in a diary.

Exercise "Release your addiction"

Take a few deep breaths; close your eyes; think of a person, place, or thing that you are addicted to. Think about the madness behind this addiction. You are trying to fix what you think is wrong with you by grasping at something that is outside of you.

The point of power is in the present moment, and you can start making changes today. Be willing to let go of that need. Say, “I am ready to let go of the need for _____________ from my life. I release it now and trust that the process of life will meet my needs.”

Repeat this every morning in your daily meditations or prayers. List 10 secrets about your addiction that you never told anyone about. If you're prone to overeating, you may have taken scraps out of the trash can.

If you are an alcoholic, you may have kept a bottle in your car to drink while driving. If you are a gambler, you may have put your family in danger by borrowing money to satisfy your gambling appetites. Be completely honest and open.

Now let's work on letting go of the emotional attachment to your addiction. Let the memories be just memories. By letting go of the past, we are free to use all our mental power to enjoy the present moment and create a brilliant future. We don't have to continue beating ourselves up for the past.

1. List everything you are willing to let go.
2. How ready are you to let go? Pay attention to your reactions and write them down.
3. What will you have to do to let it all go? How ready are you to do it?

The role of self-approval
Since self-hatred plays a very important role in addictive behavior, we will now do one of my favorite exercises. I have taught it to thousands of people and the results are always phenomenal. For the next month, whenever you think about your addiction, repeat to yourself over and over again: “I approve of myself.”

Do this 300-400 times a day. No, it's not too much! When you are anxious, you think about your problem at least as many times. Let the phrase "I approve of myself" become your eternal mantra, which you will repeat to yourself over and over again almost continuously.

The utterance of this statement is guaranteed to arouse in the mind everything that can contradict it. When a negative thought arises in your mind, such as “How can I approve of myself? I just ate two pieces of cake!”, or “I never succeed,” or any other negative “grunt,” this is the moment when you need to seize mental control. Do not attach any importance to this thought.

Just see it for what it is, another way to get you stuck in the past. Gently say to that thought, “Thank you for sharing with me. I let you go. I approve of myself." Remember, thoughts of resistance have no power over you unless you choose to believe them yourself.

(hemoglobinopathy)

Treatment of any disease, according to Louise Hay, occurs at the level of psychological impact. For a complete healing, it is important to combine the main treatment with the regular pronunciation of affirmations, sincerely believing in your healing, and the result will not be long in coming.
