Guidelines for
Spiritual & Physical Renewal
- Pray without ceasing
- When you first awake, before you sleep, and as often as you think of it throughout the day, turn your thoughts away from outer circumstances and toward God. Give thanks for the presence of Divine Life, Love, and Wisdom in this and every moment.
- Use your thoughts and spoken words to deny fear and to affirm faith. Try working with these ideas for a few days:
- (DENIAL) – Nothing and no one can stand between me and my highest good.
- (AFFIRMATION) – Divine Life flows freely through me now, cleansing and renewing every cell in my body.
- Meditate daily
- Sickness lives in our bodies when we are out of alignment with our Spirit. Worry, stress and conflict lower our body’s energy and separate us in consciousness from God’s guidance, love and well-being. Purposely make time every day to raise your energy by raising your thoughts to Spirit. Here are some simple steps you might follow in meditation:
- Sit alone in a quiet, comfortable place
- Take 3 deep breaths
- Scan through your body from head to toe, consciously relaxing and sending love along the way
- Turn your thoughts toward your heart and imagine the peaceful presence of God/Spirit/Love there
- Imagine that Presence expanding beyond your being and out into the room, your town, this country and around the world
- See this loving Presence saturating all humanity with Divine Life and Light, Peace and Wisdom
- Picture the world returning to health, restoring connection, and finding a newly born understanding of our oneness with Spirit and each other.
