Shift away from negative thoughts, from old ideas of the self, from the constant voice that shows up only to taunt and criticize, telling you that you are doing things wrong, not good enough, not, not, not. Find new words that will lift you up and away, positive affirmations to shift you out of the doldrums. A simple new thought that is positive and endearing is all it takes, an idea that you are indeed good, better, best. Let the old slip away like an old worn out coat and take on the new as easily as you pull a blanket over you at night. For yes, you have the power to change, as easily as that!

Sending you love,

Without fear turn your thoughts to useful turns of phrase around kindness, compassion and love on a daily basis. There is enough negativity in the world to last a century. Why not break the bad habit of constant negative chatter with a little beauty of positivity. Turn your own mind into a chatterbox of love music and emit the pleasurable sounds of kindness wherever you roam.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Choose your thoughts wisely. Let go of thinking that is negative, demeaning, critical and judgmental, of thoughts that return you to old places of undesirable self harm, self mischief or self defeat. Instead make your thoughts productive. Turn to positive mantras, prayers and creativity. Turn your mind into a productive processor that benefits yourself and the world around you. Turn your brain onto being a delightful creative machine that is enjoyable to engage. In this manner keep the changes rolling!

Sending you love,

A process of change is never straight but more like a winding mountain road with switchbacks, curves, and steep areas of incline and decline. And though it may seem as if progress is slow there are enough subtle shifts each day to warrant feelings of accomplishment. Better to stay positively focused than to fall into a trap of negativity and despair. Allow change itself to propel you onward each day, as you take a new step and make new plans for your forward journey. At day’s beginning rejoice at the opportunity to start off fresh and at day’s end rejoice in a well traveled day.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Refrain from thinking negative thoughts about yourself; it only makes matters worse and keeps you in a gloomy state. Look at yourself with fresh eyes and point out to yourself all the ways you excel, all the ways you are good, all the positives—and there are many indeed! No need to stay mired in the shadows. Time to come out into the light, little by little proving to yourself that you are beautiful in so many ways, that you are worthy and acceptable, and that you belong here, that you too came to make your mark.

Sending you love,
