I have always struggled with affirmations. Maybe it’s the Libran in me, but the very nature of stating one immediately makes me think about the alternative. You know, if I’m abundant, then I could also be not abundant, or have scarcity. Obvs. My mind is a bit of a jerk like that.
The biggest shift I learned from my last birth experience and from my meditation practice, in particular working with the mantra So’ham Hamsa, is that really it’s just about the beingness of the I am. That allows for all possibilities, and not needing to grasp at a specific positive or negative outcome. It just is.
And this attunement to the isness makes everything so much richer. It almost doesn’t matter what is going on, because the isness is, by its very nature, a bliss state. Satchitananda.
And if, like me, you have a monkey mind that sometimes can’t stay in relationship with I am, it’s also helpful to be a gatherer of evidence for the ways in which you’re experiencing the things you want more of in your life. Learning to orient for pleasure. Learning to orient for abundance and wealth, not necessarily even in materiality, but learning to see it all around you. It really does help.
This song is not at all representative of working with this mantra lol. I might teach a free class meditating with it, how I practice, let me know if you’re keen. ⬇️
