What are Affirmations? ¿Qué son las Afirmaciones?

Affirmations are a specialized activity within the larger field of soul processes such as meditation, contemplation and prayer. They are elegant and evocative words which enable the soul to initiate positive goals of inner development. It is a tenet of all spiritual teachings, as well as business and professional training programs, that the ordering of thought and the harmonizing of feeling have a powerful impact on our ability to manifest change, both within ourselves and within the world.

The word affirmation suggests a process for becoming “firm,” or strong in one’s internal structure. Significantly, this word connotes two simultaneous directions — downward to the terra firma of the earth on which we stand, and upward to the vault of heaven, the enveloping firmament of the universe. The firmness and support that the soul needs comes from spiritual realms and also the solid anchor of earth.

Flowers are indeed a language of both heaven and earth. Even the most hardened among us can recognize that flowers embody an exquisite language of the soul in all human cultures. They are used to express our inmost feelings in all forms of human celebration, commemoration and ritual — including birth, marriage, death and all other life passages
