One exercise in my Inner Excavation book is to write something from a starting point of phrases, such as “I am ...”
I am on the precipice of new understandings about myself and my spiritual strength. Engaging with others reveals which spiritual muscles have atrophied.
Mom (sister passed away) and Bri (cryptic and imploring letter) are having a rough week ... Feeling helpless, I lost my balance as I got caught in the undercurrent of their suffering. I swam back to shore only to be greeted by terrestrial, inner demons, Pesky and Creepy. I had to remind them they are not invited and had them escorted out.
I am carefully guarding my thought ...
I am refusing to permit anything antagonistic or unlovely to enter my consciousness ...
I am putting my whole trust, faith and confidence in the good ...
I am thinking with clarity, move with ease and accomplish without strain ...
I am expecting everything I do to prosper ...
I am allowing good to flow into my experience ...
I am seeing good in every direction I look ...
I am looking forward to more good ...
I am recognizing my union with all people and all events ...
