Your Spirit is your most precious possession.

It directs your mind. It loves you more than you do. It wants to guide and protect you. Nurture you; support you in every unimaginable way.

In The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind by Dr. Joseph Murphy, he says that whatever you habitually think sinks down into your subconscious mind, which then creates (according to the nature of your thoughts).

The subconscious mind is the seat of your emotions. How you think will determine how you will feel (happy pills aside))...

Once the subconscious mind accepts an idea, it begins to execute it. Your behavior will change in accordance.

I say out loud every day, THANK YOU FOR MY LIFE.

I look up and smile with gratitude. I tell my body, STRONG, BRAVE AND DETERMINED. HEALTHY AND WELL! NO MORE CANCER. I do this several times a day.

I KNOW my subconscious is my faithful servant. It will direct my body. And my body will obey.

I believe in the power of my subconscious to heal, uplift and strengthen me! Change your thoughts, change your destiny.

And it is also true -- anti-depressants, anti-anxiety meds help me sleep well and live with more joy. Studies show that sleep is essential to our well-being. It is time the body takes to repair damage. We owe it to ourselves to get a good night's sleep every single day.

Wishing you all wellness and peace.

Remember -- you are in charge. You are the Captain of your Soul. The Master of your Fate! Honest to goodness!!
