As you learn to do mirror work, you will become much more aware of the words you say and the things you do. You will learn to take care of yourself on a deeper level than you have done before.

Positive affirmations plant healing thoughts and ideas that support you in developing self-confidence and self-esteem, and creating peace of mind and inner joy.

Deserving has nothing to do with being good. It is our unwillingness to receive the good in life that gets in the way. Allow yourself to accept the good, whether you think you deserve it or not.

Let’s affirm: I am beautiful. I am amazing. I am easy to love.

So see yourself surrounded by love. See yourself happy and healthy and whole. And see your life as you would

like it to be, putting in all the details. Know that you deserve it.

I believe that each of us has a power within us, a higher self connected to the Universal Power that loves and sustains us and brings us prosperity of every kind. Journaling will help you connect with this force. You will see that you have within you all that you need to grow and change.

Let’s remove the word should from our vocabulary forever. Should is a word that makes prisoners of us. Every time we use should, we are making ourselves wrong or someone else wrong. We are, in effect, saying: not good enough.

I urge you to keep a journal as you do your mirror work. Jot down your thoughts and feelings so you can see how you are progressing.
