Affirmation Sandwiches: A Spiritual Practice!
The Affirmation Sandwich is a powerful practice to help you create dynamic and meaningful affirmation on the go, to use in the moment you need them!
Here's How It Works:
This Spiritual Practice takes advantage of something we all know and use all the time: the alphabet!
When you find yourself in a situation where you're feeling stuck, irritated, or out of sorts with life, just remember you have an instant tool to help you. Simply call on the alphabet!
Write the alphabet down one side of a piece of paper (or you can choose do this mentally).
For each letter, brainstorm positive, descriptive words that begin with that letter. Come up with several words for each letter.
Now, for each word, add the phrase “I Am” before and after it, and claim it enthusiastically! BAM! You've just created an Affirmation Sandwich!
Here are Some Examples:
A = Authentic; Amazing; Articulate; Awesome
B = Beautiful; Brave; Bodacious; Blessed
C = Caring; Creative; Charismatic; Clever …
I Am Authentic, I Am!
I Am Amazing, I Am!
I Am Articulate, I Am!
I Am Awesome, I Am! …
A Great Place to Test This Out!
Stuck in Traffic!
This is the perfect strategy to use when you find yourself stuck in traffic! Instead of fretting and fuming, check out the license plates on the cars around you. For each letter in the license plates, come up with as many positive words as you can. (Remember to keep them positive!) Say the words out loud, then turn them into the I AM sandwiches!
You'll notice a definite shift in attitude, capabilities, and actions ... and you'll be in a much better personal space when you finally arrive at your destination!
An Affirmation Sandwich feeds your mind ... and your soul! It's even better than peanut butter!
