Positive Thinking

I had a chance meeting with a friend the other weekend who introduced me to the group of people she was with. One of them has a little "tea room" in the town which has only been open for a couple of months. Unlike other similar establishments, they are interested in promoting holistic and alternative therapies...and why not, I hear you say! Whilst drinking my delicious jasmine tea, the owner proferred me a book written by an American woman called Louise L. Hay. She is mad about self-imposed positive affirmations which can turn your life around. Apparently, according to Louise, every ailment is caused by our negative emotions...fear, guilt, anger, jealousy, hate, etc... So what we have to do is tell ourselves, over and over, an affirmation opposite this negative emotion..."I forgive myself"...."I can do it"....etc. She even cured herself of cancer by doing this. She's in her eighties now! Every day, on her website, she gives an affirmation, and these are worth collecting, and repeating to ourselves...even if they don't touch our own personal weakness. Anything positive in our lives can only do good. You should try it! Her site is www.louisehay.com. Here's to a better more positive life!
