M stands for Mindfulness
Mindfulness is also ever-present witnessing awareness
It is the stillness in which we find ourselves
In stillness I find my true self
Today I offer my thoughts to the service of spirit
I will use my thoughts wisely and respect their power
This affirmation is also about taking responsibility
After saying this affirmation
End by sitting still and consciously bringing everyone you know into your awareness
See them coming together in a town square
Imagine that you are the leader of this gathering
With the power to hurt or benefit anyone you wish
Now look over all the faces gazing up at you and say:
"I will use my power wisely"
In this promise you acknowledge your role in everyone's healing
Today I offer my thoughts to the service of spirit
In stillness I find my true self
Remember this affirmation is about awareness
As you go about your day
Be mindful of your awareness
Sometimes it will be restless and active
This usually occurs when outside events press in asking for reactions
But at other times your awareness will be still within itself
You will watch instead of act
You will become the ever-present witnessing awareness
You will find yourself being the observer
And from the perspective of your soul
That is who you really are
Activity comes and goes
But the observer is steady and ever-present
As you begin to identify with the observer
You will become less attached to things that change
The unchanging is truly who you are
Repeat to yourself:
"In stillness I find my true self"
"In stillness I find my true self"
"In stillness I find my true self"
Today I offer my thoughts to the service of spirit
I will use my thoughts wisely and respect their power
