| Dr. Diane? Prissy? LOLOL! No way! But she is correct. The mind (which then leads the body) responds better to purely positive suggestions than any with even a hint of negativity. My preferred one is: "Divine Spirit of my Higher Self, I ordain that ____(whatever)____. I ordain this with grace." And if it involves a potential effect on another, I will say instead, "I ordain this with grace, and no inconvenience to anyone." Works like the charm it is! Hugs, PJ. Astrology & New Age

Oh, Bobby, I'm sorry you think I'm prissy! :( I was only trying to help.
Psychologists who have researched and studied affirmations DO say that the
best effects are achieved when the ideas are stated in the present tense, as
if already in existence, and in positive terms, rather than negative. E.g.,
instead of "You are never anything less than fabulous," it would be preferable
to say, "I am always fabulous!" It's not MY thing, it's the result of real
studies that show what works best. You are certainly free to do it your own
way, but please don't jump to conclusions about me! I'm lighter than you
might think! :)
