How Do You Start Your Day?

BLOG by Louise L. Hay

How do you start your day? When you first wake up in the morning, what are the first words that come out of your mouth? Do you complain? Do you worry about the day ahead of you? Do you think about what’s not working in your life?

How we start our day is often how we live our lives.

What do you say when you first look in the bathroom mirror? What do you say when you take a shower? What do you say when you get dressed? How do you leave your house for work? Do you just run out or do you say something nice. And what do you do when you get into the car. Do you slam the door and growl that you have to go to work?

I would like you to start your day tomorrow with an affirmation. When you first wake up and open your eyes, here are some affirmations you can say:

Good morning, bed. Thank you for being so comfortable, I love you.

Darling (your name), this will be a blessed day.

I am a gift to the world.

There are great experiences coming my way today.

Life loves me!

And when you get up and look in the bathroom mirror, I’d like you to say these affirmations:

Good morning Darling. I love you.

We are having a great day today.

You are a magnet for miracles.

You have time for everything you need to do.

You look great today.

An affirmation is a beginning point. It opens the way. You are saying to your subconscious mind: I am taking responsibility. I am aware that there is something I can do to change.

If you continue to say the affirmation, either you will be ready to let whatever it is go, and the affirmation will become true; or it will open a new avenue to you.

Open your eyes. Open the door. Take the first step. Say these affirmations tomorrow morning. Say them for the entire week. See how you can change your life by a single thought.

Let’s affirm: Every thought I think is creating my future.

Thank you Louise. Yet again a practical, manageable suggestion. It's hard to accept that affirmations work, when you don't FEEL positive or hopeful when you're saying them. It's so important to say them anyway. Best wishes...

Thank you Louise, I am going to start doing exactly what you suggest. Since I began reading your books and listening to your audiobooks I have become more aware of my power to make a better life for myself. I do daily mirror work and now this will help me to help myself even more. Bless you!

Thank you dear Louise <3 I have learned so much from your books, and I am really thankful for all your affirmations! As I read those, right here sitting on a train taking me to work, I could feel how a smile appeared on my face. I do a lot of mirrorwork and it is just amazing! Love to you, Thank you!

It was such a pleasure to be part of the I Can Do It Conference Vancouver! Thank you. Myself and my friends were so inspired. I had decided the day before to start journalling about my experiences...and when we received the Look Within journal with your affirmation about experiences....I was very grateful. Much Love

Dear Louise, thank you to tell me about the connection with love, body and affimations, it change my way to see myself and the world. Today I was reading 'Letters from Christ' and I though, if not Louise Hay, maybe I would wait more to receive the letters. Kisses

Dear Louise, I have been reading your books for years. They have helped me record my relaxation CD called Relax, Unwind and Sleep and start my own counseling business called Counseling for a Better Life along with a blog. Your work always inspires me to become the person I was created to be. Thank you!

It is a whole new experience, which seems awkward and strange like a child learning to walk...somewhat unstable. I find myself struggling to changing the old tapes of 75 years with grooves that keep me going into the same hole in the sidewalk. I am going forward in search of a new street that has something beautifully lined with flowers.
