AUDIO ARTICLE – LIST OF POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS:
Train Your Brain
Affirmations train your brain as to who’s in charge. You, not the monkey mind, not lizard brain. Not fear, nor doubt. You focused on your dreams and what matters most.
Repetition creates habit and humans are creatures of habit. Our brains are wired for habits. What we repeat, consciously or subconsciously, helps shape the life we live. When we create conscious positive affirmations, we’re helping train our brain toward the success we’re looking to achieve.
Positive affirmations are tools and instructions to your psyche, that help keep your focus and momentum on the road to your dreams. Use them!

LIGHT OVER DARK
The Light shatters the darkness
~Cindy Trippe Wentworth, poet, artist
Hope streaming in
It pierces the despair and chaos
Erasing where I’ve been
I turn to face its warmth
Promise cascading over me
Gives courage to face the bleakness
That I choose to no longer be
I stand and greet the brightness
Radiance flowing forth
Welcoming the brilliance around me
Reminding me of my worth
Darkness is gone
Driven out by the Light
Bringing clarity and vision
The truth with its sight.
