The Power and Pitfalls of Sustained Affirmations
I have not shifted yet, but I wanted to share an experience that may be useful to you.
In my experience, there is a momentum that builds up when you continuously sustain affirmations or assumptions. The more you repeat and persist, the stronger it becomes. For example, I once repeated the affirmation, "I am a god," for several weeks. I repeated this almost all day long. For the first few days, nothing happened. I only experienced some physical tension and discomfort, likely from the constant repetition.
However, after about a week, I started to feel intense vibrations and energy. It felt like a buzzing noise, and I began to feel a sensation of electrical currents flowing in my abdomen. I continued to persist with the affirmation. Then, after 2-3 weeks, I started experiencing extreme energy pressure along with severe fear, anxiety, and dread. I tried to counter these symptoms by repeating the affirmation even more vigorously, but this only made things worse.
Since experiencing this unexpectedly powerful effect, I have encountered these symptoms repeatedly over the past 10 years. Whenever I repeated an affirmation for more than a few days, I would experience these symptoms again. This significantly disrupted my daily life. I had to attend school and go to work. I couldn’t find a way to resolve this, so I kept having to stop and start over.
In my experience, affirmations done for about 10-20 minutes a day didn’t significantly affect my daily life. They just made me feel a bit better or sparked some pleasant imaginations. When trying out a new affirmation, I often experienced anxious or fearful thoughts, or felt positive emotions, thoughts, and feelings, but these gradually faded away after a few weeks of repetition until nothing came to mind.
The truly powerful effects only started to emerge when I repeated and sustained the affirmation all day long for at least two weeks.
Good morning, sunshine!
My eyes snapped open at 7:30am so I figured I’d have a wash, stretch out my aching muscles and do some maths. After this I’ll go and grab some breakfast :)
It’s finally half term so the pressure is momentarily off and I can catch up on all my outstanding tasks.
I feel like I’ve achieved a lot in the past couple of hours I’ve been up!
Have an amazing day!
