10 Truths I've learned from Ernest Holmes and the Science of Mind...

3. I am the vision of perfect health
"People have died of grief; broken hearts, of outbursts of temper; of deep and continued resentment; of excessive worry, and many other mental states, in which there was no specific thought of sickness at all. The point to remember is, that all mind activity inevitably tends to create to physical correspondent, so that an unhealthy and morbid mental state projects itself into the physical body." page 145, paragraph 2
My affirmation: I am healthy!
4. Beauty and good are all around me

5. Meditation is vital to my spiritual growth
"So we learn to go deeply within ourselves, and speak as though there were a Presence there that knows; and we should take time to unearth this hidden cause, to penetrate this inner chamber of consciousness.

My affirmation: I avidly search out experiences that enhance my life and bring joy to me!
8. I release any previous limiting beliefs that no longer serve me
"Treatment opens up the avenues of thought, expands the consciousness, and lets Reality through; it clarifies the mentality, removes the obstruction of thought and lets in the Light; it removes doubt and fear, in the realization of the Presence of Spirit, and is necessary while we are confronted by obstructions or obstacles." page 164, paragraph 4
My affirmation: I release old ideas and embrace healthy positive thoughts!
9. I am a perfect spark of the Divine

My affirmation: God is Perfection, I am connected to God, and therefore I am Perfection too!
10. I am one with the Universe
"The greatest good that can come to anyone is the forming within him of an absolute certainty of himself, and of his relationship to the Universe, forever removing the sense of heaven as being outside himself" page 180, paragraph 3
My affirmation: I am one with balance, harmony, and the creative power of God.
