A Sacred Vow
We can mobilize the power of our determination by setting an intention, making a declaration, and offering it as a sacred vow.... A vow becomes sacred when it draws upon our deepest desire, is connected with our life purpose, and serves the greater good.
~Yogacharya Ellen Grace O'Brian from her book The Jewel of Abundance
We can take our new year's resolutions to a higher level by using the technique of affirmation. Create a positive verbal affirmation such as "I easily have all the resources I need to carry out my useful
intentions." Keep your affirmation in the present tense. Repeat this verbally and in silence until it resonates by itself. Repeat your affirmation regularly. Then rest in the conviction that helpful intentions are gracefully supported by a friendly universe. Which transformative affirmation do you embrace for the coming year?
