Kris Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 Thanks Margee, I wrote your statements down, and will use them as some affirmations for myself as well. I think it is very helpful to give ourselves permission to let go of things. I have a funny feeling you were as awesome in any past lives you may have has as you are in this current one. You are one of the nicest people I know!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenaissanceWoman Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Wow, Kris. Thanks for sharing the opinion of the therapist. It's nice to hear about the hypnotic effect of church/pastors. I had not considered it that way before, but it makes total sense. Also interesting that the therapist has treated others with similar ex-christian issues. That is somehow comforting to know that this is a "normal" problem. (But it's also angering, isn't it? Knowing that this going on for lots of people -- grrrrr.) I have been thinking... what if hypnotism isn't really "real", but just the power of suggestion? And I say... who cares! You got comfort and acknowledgement from someone you deem to be knowledgeable and authoritative. That is a powerful effect. Whatever works! I look forward to hearing more about your progress as time passes. Please keep us posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midniterider Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Kris, I just wanted to add that when my obsessive thoughts enter in my brain to torture me, I do these affirmations everyday under this music I have posted below. In a way, I am trying to hypnotise or self suggest to my own sub-conscious mind. It is really helping me. Try it sometime..... 1. I want to be free of this problem. 2. I am willing to be free of this problem. 3. I am willing to be free of this problem from now on. 4. I give myself permission to be free of this problem. 5. It is OK for me to be free of this problem. 6. I am willing to receive all the benefits of being free of this problem. 7. I will do everything in my power that is necessary to stay free from this problem. 8. I DESERVE TO BE FREE OF THIS PROBLEM. Hope it helps a little!! The music starts off kinda weird, but it get real pretty and is soooooo good for relaxing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YExLyZKoA0g Those are great affirmations. How about: 9. I am free from [the problem]. 10. [The problem] is a thing of the past. 11. My consciousness has transcended [the problem]. And maybe in the case of an intrusive thought (vs a behavior). 12. This negative thought is not reality. It is only a thought. It is undeserving of my time. It is powerless. I now dismiss it. Positive affirmations in the present tense... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
