Introduction
When I got into the “Self Development”, around 1978 — I started a breathing process called
Rebirthing (a form of yoga breathing). During that time the “in” word was “affirmations”.
People were stating “to change your life”, simply change your thinking. I was affirming this,
and that, and nothing really changed. Sure the thoughts brought up emotions from deep
within and I worked through them, but something was missing. So the search for that
indefinable “something” began.
This body of work represents years of research and understanding on “power, words,
energy” and how the mind works. I can now define what I believe the missing bits where
from the early models of affirmations and the mysteries of the mind.
Who am I ? My name is Matthew Favaloro I am a Clinical Hypnotherapist,

Clinical Supervisor, Counselor and Breath Energist (rebirther). I blend eastern and western
philosophies and modalities so that clients can gain the best out of their lives. In essence —
a “people helper”.
I will take you step by step through the process so that together we build strong foundations
for your life. There is work to be done in the way of exercises and this you will find
pleasant. We start with How the mind works. Understanding this is a healthy foundation to
creating positive powerful affirmations. and above all achieving a powerful happy life.
Enjoy and have fun.
Best to you

Mind Mapping — How The Mind Works !
The ancient Kahuna's had an understanding of how the mind works that proves even today,
to be far superior to what we utilize or know. And even now, only a part of this knowledge is
known. They discovered and knew, just as stated in all ancient religions, that God is a
triune being. And man being created in God's image, is also a triune being (triune meaning
Three).
The Kahuna's, found that the only way to contact the higher self was through the lower self
via the conscious mind. i.e., the conscious mind (middle self) would focus on an affirmation
(desired outcome) and send it to lower self (subconscious mind) who would give the request
directly to higher self for creation, also known as manifestation. See Diagram:
Creative Mind
Manifested
High Self Reality
Sub Conscious Mind Conscious Mind

Low Self Middle Self
(Underdog) (Topdog)
Study this diagram closely. Mostly all of our foundational psychotherapy was learned by
studying the Kahunas. We have adopted and mankind has renamed the same things in
various ways :
Psychotherapy Model Conscious Mind Sub Conscious Super Conscious
Kahuna Model Middle Self Low Self High Self
Gestalt Model Top dog Under dog Creative Mind
The Kahunas even went as far to say that each consciousness has it’s own spirit or entity,
and when all agreed or were congruent (aligned) then manifestation was easy and natural.
When there was an argument between the three parts or selves, then nothing manifested.
The energy that was needed for such work was called by them, “Mana”. Each consciousness
has its own level of Mana. We also know this energy as “primal, kundalini, Chi Ki, Ka, etc.
(Note: The Low Self was also known, as well as the subconscious mind, as also containing the emotional
primal self, the seat of our emotional deep sub structures).

What made the Kahunas interesting is that they could heal, (perform Miracles) or kill (sing
someone to death, also note : the Australian Aborigines also have this ability) do Shamanic
work, negotiate with the spirit world. But is was there ability to heal and manifest that draws
most seekers to the ways of Kahuna.
Just as we have three basic selves, Science has discovered that we have three basic brains !
The Left side of the brain, The Right side of the brain and the Primal brain including the
Spinal cord.
R L
1 2 3
These act as gateways to the inner spiritual parts of you that is all creative. The Primal brain,
is the seat of raw emotions and this, like Kundalini (energy coiled in the spine) is the life
energy utilized in manifesting your affirmations.
When you were born -

The mind was a blank slate. You came into the world with a natural language, that being
colors - pictures & symbols. Science has attributed this function mainly to the right
hemisphere of the brain. Then, at a certain age you were taught a foreign language, that of
words - numbers & logic. Science has attributed this function mainly to the left hemisphere
of the brain. These attributes of the brain hemispheres bellow are not “fixed”. Chances are
we use “all” of the brain in an interactive way. Science is now looking at what they believe
to be “Cellular Memory”. That we store memories in the body and process this information
in the brain. Neurons being the pathways to memory and change.

Dimension Doubts
When you get all three brains working together through either meditation, yoga, Breathwork,
hypnotherapy, sound mantras or other spiritual disciplines, the integration of this causes the
third eye to open Dreams and subconscious symbols come forward and hold special spiritual
meaning that unfolds as your spiritual journey continues.

Regardless of how much you want to accept positive affirmations, you may initially need to
clear any negative thoughts as they arise, while using positive affirmations to replace them.
Remember, a negative thought is merely the resistance you have to loving yourself fully.
When you say positive affirmations, the mind / brain checks all new information for any
incongruities from memory, and pulls out any information that does not match its memory
files. A positive thought creates an internal struggle for a while, until the mismatched
information, the positive thought is deleted. (An example of this is when you won't believe
the positive thoughts you think, let alone that they have any power to change your reality).
You need to work on more than just one or two positive thoughts for any desired result to
take place. I will show you the keys to stop your negative mind mass from destroying the
positive change that you desire and want.
Consistent thoughts create reciprocal feelings. It is our thoughts which create our deepest
held beliefs and attitudes we have about ourselves (very often negative and debilitating in
action). Sadly, for many of us, negative thoughts form up to 90% of our current reality. One
of the functions of the mind is to manifest (create) whatever is in it, in the form of thought
messages which the brain relays to the memory held in it's bio-computer (the body). Simply
put, the mind creates reality out of thought forms and the body / brain checks the
information and gives a reply by way of your feelings.
Some of the known brains ability to store and retrieve

The brain also stores retrieves and responds to life through the sensory perceptions.
Pictures (visual) what you see Sounds (audio) what you hear
Smell (olfactory) and Taste (gustatory) Feelings ( kinesthetic) what you touch
For example, a certain aroma may trigger memories long since forgotten in response to what
you smell, your internal dialogue may be positive or negative, reinforcing either a positive or
negative state. You may picture yourself in a negative or positive way as an outcome.
Everything in the subconscious mind (low self, underdog), is always in a state of constant
action as your subconscious does not recognize time. If you say the affirmation that “I am
rich” and you live in abject poverty. Then your subconscious mind photographs your
poverty and labels it “rich”. It does not judge nor delineate. It then takes your command,
“I am rich”, after labeling poverty : rich, and produces for you an abundance of poverty.
To offset this you must have a goal (outcome) and a clearly defined image of what you want
to create with your affirmation. As you send this absolute clear and precise intention to the
subconscious mind it gives way to the new thought (desire). Once both your minds agree.
Your subconscious mind, then presents the new reality to your higher self for manifesting.
The Kahunas say that your subconscious mind (low self, underdog), always wins.
How negative programming started
When we were children, growing, learning and developing, our personal identity was shaped
by the people around us. Our early friends, teachers and associates, and even parents gave us
the thoughts such as “stupid”, “dumb”, “unlovable” and thoughts like these became the
foundation of who we are. Who we then feel we are.

Emotions are “energy in motion” When we are emotional and experience negativity or
when things go wrong it is because of the many negative thoughts pulling to us life
experiences that prove to us that those thoughts are real and true.
How we interact and reinforce
When someone throws us a compliment, we check it with our internal data and because we
have years of negative thoughts, the new positive thought initially gets rejected.
An example: A man says to a woman “ you are beautiful” or “trust me”. The woman
checks internally, instantly and subconsciously her negative beliefs, reject the positive
compliment and she replies on the lines of “oh yeah — I know what you really want….
sleaze bag!”. In the world today it is infinitely harder to give compliments and infinitely
easier to accept criticisms.
This is because the world is negatively based. But your world need not be.
Exercise. When someone gives you a compliment say “Thank you”.
Thoughts can be changed, including the negative mind mass that we have internally stored
for years. People have two powers to the possibility of change
1 Will Power.
2 Won’t Power.
Your won’t power is critical and stops change and growth. All life changes, but think of
this, it does not need to be in a negative direction.
Exercise
Visualize a stagnant smelly pond….. Would you drink from it?’
No you would not.
Now take a moment and visualize a gentle flowing waterfall, fresh and clear.
Would you drink from it?
Yes you would.
Think of which one you are drinking from with the way you live your life.
Process Do something different—break up routine, go to the mountains for a day, or see a

sunset or sunrise, throw a party for no reason at all. Let life become and remain a wonderful
discovery and adventure. A rut is routine gone wrong!.
Remember to Laugh
and enjoy the unexpected.

What is an affirmation ?
All of our thoughts are creative, therefore all of our thoughts are a form of affirmation. But
they fall into two distinct categories - Positive and Negative, strong or weak. Therefore,
Affirmations can also be defined as positive or negative thoughts which we choose to think
in our consciousness. These thoughts create our reality, how we view it and how we receive
it. By Consciously choosing positive, new, focused thoughts we then have the ability to
create a new reality, a new desired result.
Affirmations are POWER thoughts. They allow your mind to work for you, rather than you
working for your mind. An Affirmation is a positive, focused, conscious thought, that you
place in your subconscious mind through conscious repetition.
The difference between an affirmation and a positive thought.
Positive thinking is not an affirmation. A positive thought can be worded in any tense, past,
present or future. “ I will release the past ” has the future statement “will” in it, it does not
imply you do. “I am willing to love everyone naturally” has the future statement “willing”
in it, it does not imply that you do. These are positive thoughts but not affirmations.
Word phonetics need to be looked at also “I will release the past” sounds like re– lease to
renew the lease. It therefore pays to check words for double meanings and, if possible, not
use them.
Stating your thoughts in a negative way, such as “I no longer hate” is not positive either.
As the subconscious does not delineate what the negative means. The subconscious works
on the word “hate” and a struggle is set up so as not to hate. So you end up hating in order
to know what not to do. A positive thought would be “I am becoming more loving every
day” This is not an affirmation as it has the word “becoming” in it, it does not imply you do
love more everyday. Becoming is a process word, it is not a completion or end state.
An affirmation has to be stated in the “now” as fact.

And stated in a positive way.
You must be aware of how your affirmations are constructed.

The Macquarie Dictionary definition of Affirmations
"An assertion that something is so;

A declaration or ratification; Establishing a truth"
My Meta~Physical definition of an Affirmation is " The mind, body, spirit and soul in the
act of creation; To generate a desired outcome. Creating a truth that concludes in the
formation of something real"
An A-firm-ation becomes an A-form-ation

A formation of something real in the mind
that becomes manifested in reality.

Conscious to Subconscious Thinking
To fully understand the power of affirmations, you must first understand how your mind /
brain / identity relationship works. We think about 30,000 thoughts a day, usually negative
in content. Usually around the same theme, around the same fundamental base thought that
all thoughts are built upon.

It is often said that an Optimist sees the glass of water half full.
A Pessimist sees the glass of water half empty.
An Opportunist drinks the water.

Our subconscious mind acts as a generator, projecting upward these subconscious thoughts
to our higher self which pulls to us the equivalent as a life experiences. The negative
thoughts prove themselves to be true. They group together to form our fundamental beliefs.

As you can see, it is not only the conscious thoughts we have to work on, it’s the
subconscious one’s we neutralize or delete. The ones that have grouped together that form
our beliefs about ourselves that we make real and prove in the world around us.
Conscious mind and Higher self
Notice on the diagram above, that the pathway between Conscious mind and Higher self is
blocked. The reason for this is that if you had the idle thought “oh I could just die” and
knowing that thought is creative, well then, you would instantly drop dead, not a good way
to evolve on the earth plane. So to offset this, your conscious mind can only contact the
higher self through your subconscious. It acts as a buffer to creative manifestation.
Your subconscious mind gives the commands directly to higher self, unfortunately, your
higher self gets a confused jumble of contradictory messages and mostly negative. Negative
energy is slow moving so you have time to correct this, a slow negative thought may take
years to manifest. So you have time to be focused and change things to what you desire.
Positive affirmations become fast moving, uplifting and the world becomes a magical place.

With Affirmations our subconscious mind acts as a generator, projecting upward these new
and accepted thoughts to our higher self which pulls to us the equivalent as a life
experiences. The new positive thoughts prove themselves to be true. They group together to
form our new reality: our new fundamental beliefs. Expressed here in the following mind

LETS REVIEW
Thoughts create your reality mind set
( your perceived unique view of you and the world. )
Your thoughts magnetize and pull to you an external

mirror of your thinking which proves itself to be true.
( your received unique view of you and the world. )
On average we think 30.000 thoughts a day.

Usually along the same negative theme.
The Subconscious mind works

24 hours a day forever producing results for you, what is
reinforced in itself (your beliefs) become true for you.
Thoughts project as an energy outwardly from the higher self

and comeback to you as your experience.
You can always check your negative thoughts by your

actual experience of life !
What “REALITY” always throws at you.
Self Mastery is in utilizing and understanding

affirmations powerful effect in changing your life
Preparing to Energize
One of the keys to energizing your affirmations is to chant or sing an ancient body sound
such as “OM” There are quite a few that can work for you. The one I like to Chant is “HU”
we are after all hu-man beings. This is an excellent energy raiser. You can source out which
holy mantra, prayer or song works for you.
There are many ways to raise primal energy.
Sexual intimacy, rebirthing “conscious connected rhythmic breath, breath work, dancing the
night away, think of the Sufi whirling dervishes, (remembering NOT to drink alcohol as this
diminishes life force). Chi from acupuncture, chi from karate, or one of the many forms of
Kung Fu.
It does not matter how you raise your primal energy as long as you do not hurt yourself or
others in the process. You could always utilize gentle deep breathing in a relaxed meditation
while listening to affirmations or simply practice tai chi, or gentle forms of yoga. Always
remember to clear the mind and focus on your affirmations. This really energizes the bodies
primal energy, that which the Kahunas call “Mana” - you use this energy to focus on and
empower your affirmations. This is only part of the key , you also need the other elements.

The Secret Keys “The Elements”
It takes more than one thought (affirmation), to change the negative mass which we have
accumulated and reinforced in ourselves as true over many years. It takes time and energy to
change the balance. To get the results you want using affirmations, I believe you need a
special combination of Thoughts and Actions which integrate the four elements, that
being - Air, Water, Fire and Earth. This way you can integrate the new thoughts or
affirmations into your spiritual being, resulting in manifestation. I call this "Affirmation
Empowerment Mode" and this is how it works.
Using your affirmation:
1. THINK IT (Element Air)

Think it, chat it, sing it, write it, say it, pray it, (prayer is one of the highest forms of
affirmation), read it, listen to it. Use the 1st, 2nd and 3rd person (I, Me, You) atone it, think
it, affirm it, breathe it, hear it.
2. FEEL IT (Element Water)

Touch it, grasp it, immerse yourself in it, emote it, breathe it in, empower it with your inner
energy, make it a quantum part of your inner essence, feel it, connect to it, love it, love
yourself and what you do at a heart level, be enthusiastic .
3. DO IT (Element Fire)
Take action, do it, put into motion the things that will manifest your affirmation, travel
towards the outcome, use focused energy and action to achieve it.
4. BE IT (Element Earth)
You must let it become a living part of you, a natural part of your reality, a way of life, (or
you won't allow yourself to have it), create it physically, goal plan it step-by-step into reality
thus pulling it to you.
Consistency equals power. Power through this process equals manifestation. That is, getting
the affirmation to work on all levels of self, from your highest mind, down to your deepest
cellular level of being. It might help to key code it simply this way: Think it, feel it, do it, be
it. Appropriate Action will beat positive thinking every time. Appropriate Action plus
Affirmations with this affirmation mode (think it, feel it, do it be it) equals success.
Meditation, hypnosis and rebirthing are all tools which help us to integrate and also to throw
out unwanted material. They also help speed up the process of change from negative to
positive and thus create a new reality.
Always state your affirmations in the NOW, as if you already have that which you are
affirming for, as your subconscious mind knows nothing about time and stays in the eternal
now moment.
A clearing awareness exercise.
Relax. Become conscious of all that you think, that is, monitor your thoughts as you think
them. When a negative thought comes into your mind, say to yourself "CANCEL" or
"DELETE" and then replace it with five positive statements. Try to do this process a little
every day, until it becomes a natural part of your everyday life.

Affirmation Modes:
Internal / Personal: example: "I believe in myself"
External / Collective: example: "People greet me with genuine love and warmth"
If you wish for somebody’s love specifically, and hope to attract them through affirmations,
affirming that “so and so loves me”, interferes with their energy and tells the universe that
you will only accept love from one place, or from one person. Usually love from outside the
self. This is doomed to failure as you have to generate love from within. Also, they can
subconsciously sense your manipulation and this may cause them to not like you, for what
appears to be no reason at all.
When we say
External / Collective: example: "People greet me with genuine love and warmth"
This keeps it open to explore and have fun. This will draw to you loving people.
Internal / Personal: example:

I believe in myself, I love myself, I am loveable, I forgive myself, I am worthy
External / Collective: example:
People greet me with genuine love and warmth

Only good things happen to me
Everyone respects / loves me no matter what
I am always in the right place / company at the right time
Happiness, Prosperity and Opportunity always finds me
The universe supports me totally
A declaration is a statement of fact
Affirmation declaration
I declare prosperity in my life, .. 1 declare peace . ............ I declare love in my life ..........
I declare power in my life .......... I declare spirituality in my life ..
Power Affirmations WORDS OF POWER
I AM PROSPEROUS
I AM PEACE
I AM LOVE
1 AM POWER
1 AM SPIRITUAL
Choose to repeat as a mantra or to say/sing out loud or internal meditation.
AUM, LOVE , PEACE, CALM, CHEERFUL, DIVINE, STRONG, GIVING, RECEIVE,

RICH, VALUABLE , VITAL, EXCITED, GENTLE, WISE,
Meditate passively and actively on these power words make them statements of fact.
I AM LOVE, LOVE. . , . I FEEL LOVE, I THINK LOVE ... Remember to always breathe
deeply when affirming your affirmations.

How to approach Problems and solve them
By acknowledging the problem you give yourself an opportunity to define it and change it
It is okay for me to be “Overweight”
“Poor”
“Lonely”
The healing affirmation is “ My need to have this condition in my life has now been
satisfied.” or “I release this condition now and forever”, “The past has no power over me
anymore”. Then focus and create your positive affirmations. Remember to “think it, feel
it, do it , be it.
Example Problem "I Stutter". Acknowledge it, don't deny it. "It is O.K. to stutter" The new
affirmation, after problem acknowledgment is, " I now speak fluently and freely" (think it
mode) Imagine yourself relaxing the voice box and mind into speaking fluently and freely
(feel it mode). You may seek out a speech therapist or hypnotherapist to assist you in your
desired goal (do it mode) and work gently yet consistently at it, until achieved (be it mode).
Finally, celebrate the positive change and goal reached. This frees your energy for other
goals and other affirmations. Always affirm what you want rather than what you don't
want.

Please note: do not dispense medical advice or prescribe the use of any technique as a form
of treatment for medical or physical problems either directly or indirectly. With
Affirmations on health, the intent is to only offer information of a general nature to assist
you or your client in the quest for health, physical fitness and a positive attitude. You
MUST always consult your medical practitioner (doctor) for any medical and or physical
problem/s.
Remember to Celebrate
Celebrate your affirmations when they complete / manifest into form

Completion and celebration allows more energy to flow.
With affirmations. Think it, Feel it , Do it, Be it
A rule of thumb is to do this for seven days and then release it to the universe to pull it to
you. Do what feels right for you.
So you see with affirmations - thought is creative and also directive towards an outcome
such as a goal, state of mind or using your thoughts to change reality.
The higher self ALWAYS says yes to whatever you think, as long as all three states of mind
agree with what is accepted as your desired reality.
A holy mantra for God is I AM That I AM.
What ever you put after I am , you become. If you say I AM sick, you become sick, If
you say I AM POOR, then you will experience poverty. If you say I AM HAPPY, then you
will experience happiness.

Trouble shooting
Q My affirmations are not working or are taking too long to manifest
A Remember that the rout of manifestation is : Your conscious mind creates a new positive
affirmation, (a goal or desired outcome that you want), it flows and embeds into your
subconscious mind, (after any initial resistance is dealt with by re - affirming the affirmation
and / or dissolving any other negatives). Your subconscious mind after accepting the new
affirmation as true, hands it over to your higher self for manifestation. Make sure you use
the "Affirmation Empowerment Mode" Think it, Feel it, Do it, Be it.
Remember, it takes more than just a thought (Think it, mode) to change your personal and
external realities. Most people just say an affirmation without empowering it. Make sure that
the affirmation (said as a statement of fact), is congruent with what can be possible. If for
example, you had the unfortunate experience of losing a leg, saying the affirmation "I now
grow a new leg" runs against the laws of biology, as we know it today. Now if you say
"I now manifest a new leg" you will - albeit, metal and plastic.
Also, the affirmation that your "Affirmations are not working and are taking too long to
manifest", is in itself, a self retarding affirmation. Remember, your subconscious mind does
not delineate, it accepts everything as is and always says “yes’ to what you think. Remember
the example, if you live in squalor and you use the affirmation "I am now rich and
prosperous", your subconscious mind mentally photographs your squalor and labels it rich
and prosperous and gives you an abundance of squalor.
Affirmations have to be specific to the desired outcome you want to create. Both internally
and externally. Visualize your affirmations... Hold in your minds eye exactly what you want
to manifest. Energize it with your Chi (primal life force).
Do not fall into the trap of habitually focusing on the negative, or looking to dissolve the
negative thoughts that arise to the new affirmation. Your mind has the ability to keep
producing new negative thoughts for you to cancel - forever.
To get around this you can use double negatives. Such as "all my negative thoughts have
killed themselves", My negative thoughts are just like a flat battery" , "I only empower
my positive thinking into energy, action, motivation and desire." Remember, what you
focus upon expands in your mind, so if you focus on the positive, it magnetizes it to you.

There are many modalities that help you to energize the body and mind. As you work with
affirmations, such as Herbs, Hypnosis, Acupuncture, Rebirthing — all support each other.
Your word is law
All words are a form of power, intention and direction. If you break your word, you weaken
the intention and power behind affirmations. By breaking your word you affirm the
weakness of your word and your affirmations will in turn be weak.
An example: is someone who lies all the time. How can they expect to create their reality
with affirmations when they lie to others and to themselves. Another example is someone
who makes appointments to see someone and simply does not show or ring to cancel the
appointment. If you say to someone, “I will be there on time”, or “I will come over or do this
or that”, and you break your agreement, then your affirmations will be inherently weak. Of
course by renegotiating, (ringing them or contacting them) you keep yourself empowered.
The same way thoughts have energy. If you have a great idea and you tell someone, then that
spends the energy of that thought ! Tell more than three people and you will find that you
will not follow through with your idea. Not only that, but they will load you with a ton of
negatives that stops you dead in your tracks.
An example: Lets say you told your friends you thought about going parachuting. It could
be the very adventure that you need, to push you beyond your boundaries. Friend one says “I
wouldn’t do that if I was you” a truism— this friend is NOT you and would not go
parachuting. But we take it as a command to not parachute. Friend two overhears the
conversation, and informs you of all the risks and deaths they heard through another friend
about parachuting. End result. Your idea is dead. You do not do it, and you remain stuck.
Only tell those people who can support you with your goal, idea, adventure or affirmation.
1 Empower your thoughts— focus and use silence. (don’t blab your ideas)
2 Honor your word— this affirms your thoughts have power and you have strength of
character.
3 The Energy in your affirmations is in direct proportion to the speed in which it becomes
real and true.
Tips that work
Negative events, people and thoughts will give you a flat battery in more ways than one.
Positive events, people and thoughts will give you energy in more ways than one.
You think of someone you have not thought about in years and amazingly they ring you or
bump into you. Thoughts have power. The more you free yourself of negative habitual
thoughts, the quicker your affirmations will manifest.
Words are just symbolic. Symbols we call letters are put together to form
sentences, from which we gain meaning, information and purpose. It is the
intention and focus behind your thoughts that make affirmations work. It is
not only the affirmation that makes it powerful, but the meaning and power
you give it— In essence, what it means for you.

Affirmations unconsciously around you
Lyrics to songs are usually negative affirmations put to music!
Films and TV dramas usually reinforce negative dysfunctional states of being. If we are not
consciously aware of this we tend to emulate them. The world's news media is a pool of
negativity. If you watch the news or are addicted to television soaps or dramas, then this too
will deplete your energy. Conscious awareness is the ability to not let this negativity
unconsciously affect you. By just being aware of it, you change the pattern of energy.
Meditation and building sanctuary is essential for inner health and well being. Your body is a
temple that houses your spirit, your divinity. Treat it well. Self help books, tapes and lectures
are excellent resources to building inner sanctuary. Your inner place of power where the
energy of all affirmations comes from.
Remember : The positive affirmations create leverage when you apply the “Think it, feel it,
do it , be it — approach”. It takes very little to remove the large negative mind mass. An
example : “ My negative mind mass dissolves itself into the nothingness from whence it
came. “ I am sure you can create your own affirmations that feel right for you .

On dealing with negative people / events or situations
In nature, energy is expressed as the sun. The rays of the sun, shining bright, full of energy
and expansive.
This is representative of the energy of growth. We see this in children and adults who have
remained young at heart.
A collapsed or negative energy, in nature, is expressed by a black hole. A black hole is

created by a star (sun), that has collapsed due to using up all its energy. In fact, the gravity of
a black hole sucks everything into it, not even visible light can escape.
This is representative of older crusty, rigid, negative people. Negativity sucks you in just like
a black hole. People who are negative aren't happy until the people around them are also

in a negative state. The worst thing you can do, is try to cheer up a negative person. If you
think of a black hole, the gravity of their negativity will simply suck you in and you end up
with a flat battery, i.e. depleted and negative. You don't have to defend the negativity, you
simply choose not to join it.
Negative energy is similar to the energy of a riot, everyone gets contaminated, as the energy
runs until everyone is affected by it. Think of a time when you were negative, you felt
terrible, and were only happy when the people you were conveying this to joined your model
of the world, and also ended up negative.
If you were to tell a negative person to enjoy their negativity (situation or event) then this
could collapse them into a positive state. But not always.
Simply move away from negative people and choose not to have them in your world. Lets
look at how to do this Autonomously.
Negative people use tricks such as yes and no questions asked as statements. Examples
might be “Horrible day isn't it”, “the world sucks doesn't it”. By changing a statement into
a question, it then requires a yes or no answer. If you reply yes, then you have joined their
model of the world and you start to feel negative. If you say no, then they will challenge you
and give you all the negative proof. You'll either be defending or approving. Either way it
keeps you on guard and this will deplete your energy.
The simple solution is to simply move away. Bless them in your minds eye, focus on the
positive and leave. You may also be tempted to give a negative person an affirmation. This
is like challenging a wild dog with a twig. Only give affirmations to those who ask for them ,
or inquire about a healing way.
Live your life by example. When people notice that you are happy, on track, and ask you
how you do it, then tell them.
If you look at energy you can see it as fast moving or slow moving. Negative energy is
slow-moving and contains a lot of gravity. Most people's negative thoughts only go to the
extent of their own energy field, and collapse into themselves, just like a black hole. You
have to be really close - to get sucked in. If you had the thought “I wish I was dead” and
thought is instantly creative, then you would instantly die. You would never learn how to
master your world. Luckily, a negative thought is heavy, has a lot of gravity, and your
negative mind mass (built up over years) slowly attracts the event to you. It may take ten
years to manifest. If you don’t change your thinking then it eventually will. Deleting the
negatives as presented in this book de activates them.
You do not have to go through every single negative thought to de-activate it. Simply use a
collective affirmation and focus on positive outcomes.
Example: “My negative thoughts automatically delete themselves”.
Positive thought is fast moving. It impacts around you. If you had the thought “I need a new
job” then the time it takes to manifest will show you how fast your energy is moving. The
phone should ring within a day, with someone offering you a new job. If it takes ten years,
then you are stuck in the molasses of negative thinking or negative points of view.

Negative events are also slow-moving. Like the person who has a car accident and observes
it all in slow motion. As you raise your energy, you shimmer away from negative events.
Simply put you are invisible to negative people and negative events. When you become
negative you slow your energy down and you shimmer back into the realm of negative
events.
Fear is a great carrier wave of negativity. Fearful people are carriers of negative energy.
These people always live in the future, a negative future. You can spot them easily because
they live in the world of "what if" - "what if the world ends" ,what if I get mugged", "what
if we go broke". The only solution to future negativity is to "stay in the now". Utilize
affirmations. take appropriate action, and raise your energy through affirmations, meditation
and purification of mind. Remember, anxiety is a nice word for fear.
When people stay in the now, they usually say "now what?". There is a peace when one
stays in an eternal present moment.
When you are there, put your energy into what you want, rather than talking about and
negating what you don't want.
Affirmations and utilising the elements presented in this book will help you to train your
mind and keep your energy raised and in an appropriate desired state of being. In fact, it is
good to practise conscious thought (affirmations) until they become a natural part of you.
Just as you need to sleep, you also need to meditate, create sanctuary and in so doing
regenerate on all levels of being - body, mind and spirit. It becomes a natural way of life.
Back to the Kahunas, they saw the subconscious as a “wild child” that needed the
comfort, love, discipline, training and support from the conscious mind. The conscious mind
then became a good parent, and directed the subconscious accordingly.
Ancient Shamans a time of deeper work and re — discovery
Ancient shamans were able to enter trance states, talk to the spirit world and negotiate with
the higher self. Zen and Buddhist monks, Kahunas, Medicine Men and Martial Artists, yogis,
as well as experienced meditators, spend years altering their state of consciousness. Their
goal being — to reach a state of one-ness, and even so, most of these advocates only
glimpsed for a brief moment or two - enlightened states. The moment the conscious mind
engages aware thought, the experiencer is pulled back into the conscious mind. The rare few
who achieve an everlasting connection to their higher self were called “Avatars”.
Enlightened beings who could perform miraculous healings on others.
Passive and Active pathways
The paths which lead them were either quiet meditation, stillness of mind, chanting,
praying, singing a repetitive mantra, (to occupy the conscious mind so as to gain access to
the subconscious mind and higher self). Sound and toning has a vast effect on entrancing the
mind. Or vigorous repetitive body movement like the whirling dervishes of the Sufis who
would change their inner state so as to walk on fire, heal the sick, or contact the dead. Many
ancient shamans took specific herbs to alter their awareness. Sweat lodges, rebirthing (Yoga
Breathing), are all tools for cleansing the body and achieving altered state of awareness.

Ancient Shamans would alter their
Creative Mind state of consciousness, strengthening
High Self their connections and the many varied
pathways to higher self.
Sub Conscious Mind Conscious Mind

Low Self Middle Self
(Underdog) (Topdog)
Nowadays, you do not have to spend years in a monastery to achieve an altered state of
mind. With tools such as hypnosis, mediation and audio bio feedback tapes and audio tapes
that entrain the brain, (usually the tapes contain a metronome beat or variations of sound to
synchronize right and left brain hemispheres), we can alter our state of awareness quickly
and have access to deeper mind.
With the use of a trained Hypnotherapist we can direct the subconscious and create
pathways for your affirmations to be more effective (simply because a Hypnotherapist can
remove any trouble spots you may have to the positive affirmations you are working on. All
the ancient healers had great mental and body disciplines, and they all had many varied and
secret ways to achieve their desired results, some of which we are only now re– exploring.
Do you have to use bio feedback tapes for affirmations to work ? The answer is no. Your
affirmations will be very effective. Hypnosis, trance states and the use of bio feedback tapes
will only quicken your results, and are a good resource when you really need it. In ancient
times many people sought out the shamans for such help and training purposes.
Brain Waves
Meditation and hypnosis trance states, can be measured as Brain-Waves on a electroen-
cephalograph (EEG) machine. Although the states vary from person to person. The fact is
the brain waves DO change as we go deeper and deeper into meditation and / or trance, and
even then, you have to align your subconscious mind with the changes you want to
implement via an affirmation (hence inducing a self hypnotic state has great value).
Science has labeled the changes of brain waves into four major ranges of oscillation. as they
appear on an EEG machine. For your information, they are:
The cycle of oscillation around 14 — 20 cps, is known as Beta brain wave state. This is
the state of normal conscious awareness. Everyday alertness. Where we spend most of aware
consciousness. Now we do cycle from Beta, Alpha and Theta at various times through the
day — naturally. In Beta we experience the full range of emotions and it is where we
“worry” and “stress” the most. 25 + - cps, (cycles per second) is known as hysteria.

The cycle of oscillation around 7 — 14 cps, is known as the Alpha brain wave state.
In this state, the mind is able to visualize, yet remain alert but relaxed. The body and
breathing relaxes and around 20 minutes of alpha meditation is equal to around three hours
of body relaxation and regeneration. Alpha is the creative cycle of the mind. Alpha states of
awareness occur naturally in the awake state and also while you sleep. I.e. dreaming.
The cycle of oscillation around 4 — 7 cps, is known as the Theta brain wave state.
This is the state of deep relaxation. Theta is experienced frequently by Zen meditators.
If awareness is maintained, you may experience psychic phenomenon and or out of body
experiences. Both Alpha and Theta states are times where the body repairs itself and
cells regenerate.
Finally, the cycle of oscillation around 0 — 4 cps, is known as the Delta brain wave state.
This is the state where we experience our deepest stages of sleep. It is impossible to have
any conscious awareness at this level of brain activity. At this time, the Delta brain wave
state remains virtually uncharted.
The brain wave states of Alpha and Theta are the most effective with affirmations, self
Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy. The ancients new how to trigger and maintain these at will. In
these deeper states they would build inner mind maps, bridges to their higher selves which
they could access at normal awareness any time they chose.
Self hypnotic states
So with your well constructed affirmation, induce a self hypnotic state, go to the stillness
within, deepen the trance, focus your affirmation in your mind, Think it , feel it, do it, be
it, - become it. See it realised. Hand it over to your higher self, that part that is your own
creative, regenerative power. (you could even use a self hypnotic tape if you wish, or tapes
that entrain the alpha / theta state).
Hypnotic states with clients
Utilizing hypnotic states and giving powerful affirmations to clients is a wonderful way to
realign the subconscious creative power, utilizing the Therapy Secret of the Mind &
Affirmations workbook for yourself and others is a great way to map the changes and build a
powerful life for yourself and others.

Introduction
Initially, when starting affirmations, you need to remove the resistant surface thoughts that
lay in your subconscious mind. These subconscious thoughts tend to sabotage you ever
creating what you want. One way to remove the resistant thoughts is to utilize a response and
declaration column.
Stage 1
Affirmation Thought Response Declaration

I am a beautiful person Nah… no way I declare beauty in my life
I am a beautiful person Who said ???? I declare beauty in my life
I am a beautiful person Maybe so I declare beauty in my life
Do stage 1, until your initial resistance ebbs. (no more negatives come up for the response
column) Then, automatically go on to stage 2, utilising self induce trance states to focus on
your affirmation.
Notice that your declaration column is actually declaring and re-affirms the affirmation.
Say the declaration out loud seven times, over the day, and when in trance states.
Stage 2
Affirmation Declaration
I am a beautiful person I declare beauty in my life
Stage 2 is the creative affirmation plus it’s own declaration “making it so” do this stage for
seven days, utilizing self hypnosis and meditation with your affirmations. With any
affirmations, rest after seven days so that the energy that goes out from you, in your
affirmation, can return to you, your desired reality.
An example : If you had an Aboriginal Boomerang and you waved it all over the place with
your arm, but did not let it go, then it will never go out into the word and return to you.
As you build the energy in your affirmation, (seven days) keep silent, do not tell others what
it is you are creating or affirming. Then, release the affirmation simply by letting it go, you
don’t have to keep working on it, trust that it will manifest. The speed of which it manifests
is an indication of your energy levels.
Sometimes it is difficult to build the correct affirmation or to uncover your negative thoughts
that block you creating what you want. A way to uncover the blocks is to do what is called
“Mantric phrase therapy” Mantric phrase therapy uncovers the deep emotional negative
thoughts or blocks that dwell within. A mantra is a phrase you say over and over again, until
the next connecting thought surfaces, I.e. say for example you are feeling blocked, you want
to go out and socialize but simply do not have the energy or motivation. Mantric phrase can
back track a thought to where the blockage is and then with an appropriate affirmation, you
can clear the block.

Example: If you always feel rejected and unloved, then that thought may have a deeper
binding sub-structure so you would say (to uncover) “I am unloved” over and over until the
next thought pops into your mind.
“I am unloved, I am unloved, I am unloved, I am unloved, I am unloved, I am unloved”, then

a thought will pop up i.e. “well nobody loved me”, so this becomes the new phrase “well
nobody loved me, well nobody loved me, well nobody loved me, well nobody loved me”
then you may have a thought like “ Mother” this then, is the seed underpinning thought.
Mantric Phrase
Mother
Well nobody loved me
I am unloved Problem uncovered
Uncovered thought
You would then do healing affirmations about your mother.
Mantric phrase has it’s place and I wouldn’t use it all the time, only when extremely stuck.
Utilise affirmations, self hypnosis and the elements Think it, Feel it, Do it , Be it. Mode.
Affirmations like, “my negative thought are like a flat battery”, or “my negative past has no
power over me” can neutralise past experiences reoccurring. Sometimes, however, you will
be tested on this to really be sure that you have let go the negative conditioning.
We all live in a sea of energy. The time frame of its manifestation is the level of energy you
are vibrating to. If thoughts were instantly creative, then the idle thought… “oh I could just
die” would instantly kill you. You would have to reincarnate to continue your journey with
thought—creation mastery.
Luckily, we have time to adjust our thinking and our actions. If you had the idle thought
“oh I could just die”. This thought may take years to manifest. So you have time to change
it… ( to move beyond it having any power over you, and manifesting in your life).
Slow moving negative energy

takes time to manifest
Fast moving positive energy
manifests very quickly.
The time and energy in manifesting your affirmation, is in how you raise your energy and in
what you focus your mind upon in your life.

Example: Lets say that the energy is vibrating at around - 2 on our grid. Then it will draw
to you it’s equivalent. All minus 2 experiences, i.e., accidents, frustration, blocks etc. What
raises your energy is exactly what you focus upon. Affirmations rase your energy.
+5 Positive energy / fast moving

0 Energy of change Thoughts you think
- 1 Negative energy / slow moving
Moves you toward
- 3 Negative energy / slow moving Its equivalent energy
vibration
To see what level you or your clients are on, just see what life is always mirroring back, con-
sensus reality.
Your thoughts and actions can raise or lower your energy accordingly. When a negative
event happens to you, then it has taken years in it’s creation. Affirmations can literally re
write your life’s script and move you beyond your negativity and previous life’s experiences.
Prayer, holy mantras, affirmations, a walk in nature can all raise your energy and you vibrate
faster, you literally disappear to the negative people and negative circumstances in your life.
If you are in a vehicle travelling at 100 kilometres an hour, a negative thought pattern
travelling at 5 kilometres an hour will never ever catch you. You have vibrated out if it’s
frame of reference and you no longer exist to it. However, you can put the brakes on and
slow down to a point where you meet it again. In our example, the negative thought pattern
can never travel faster than itself…. Ever. However you can travel any speed you want.
If you lower your energy and enhance and focus on your negativity, then you have indeed
put the brakes on and lowered your self back to it’s corresponding frame of reference. You
can move away from it or towards it. The choice is always yours. Quantum physics points to
all reality, that we perceive wether solid, real or ethereal, being nothing more than fluid
particles of energy, interacting, changing, transforming and creating.
Think and do five positive things that can raise your energy, there are many more that you
can think of . Here is an example to get you started.
1 Love your bills
2 Dance, party have fun (throw a party)
3 Celebrate everything in your life
4 Do good selfless deeds — often
5 Walk in nature
This is too good to be true , This is too good to be true, This is too good to be true
+5
+4
+3
+2
+1
0
- 1
- 2
- 3
- 4
- 5
Nothing could get worse than this, Nothing could get worse than this
We also fall somewhere in our vibrations within two extreme thoughts.

A Negative — Positive, “Nothing could get worse than this” and
A Positive — Negative, “ This is too good to be true”
When our life’s going great, we may have the negative thought along the lines of:
“This is too good to be true” Our energy starts to spiral downwards until we reach a point
where all is hopeless, and we have a positive thought “Nothing could get worse than this”,
then our energy spirals upwards towards positive good events.
Affirmations allow us to steer between 0 and + 5 on our graph, which is pretty good for
living a positive happy life.
Negative peoples energy tends to vibrate between 0 and –5 and they will try to pull you
down to their level by utilizing the energy of heavy emotions, crisis's and high stress.
You do not have to have friends or feel obligated to anyone, especially when the results end
up with you feeling bad.
Singing, cleansing and not buying into the negatives is a worthy discipline. Especially when
people try to transfer their negative emotions onto you. Remember those time when sad and
angry people are not happy unless others become that way too !
Example. You get a visitor, a friend whom you have known for years, they convey that their
marriage has had it and they are an emotional mess. You sympathize with them, try to cheer
them up, they leave feeling the same as nothing is resolved. You however are stuck with the
negative emotion.
You sit down and talk about poor so and so with your partner, still discussing the tragedy,
when all of a sudden, you slip, at first imperceptivity into an argument that nearly splits you
and your loved one up.

The negative energy finds an outlet and you can, if unaware, become a victim of that
negative energy, once generated, needing to prove itself real in your world.
You see this also in riots, It starts at one end of a football stadium and like a wild fire, burns
everyone in its path.
On questioning people after the riots they could not tell you why they felt rage, or anger or
why they were flogging the person next to them.. You see this energy with rock concerts
where the crowd surges forward crushing those in front.
As you learn to read energy. You will feel where you need to be. Those in tune would have
left the stadium before the riots started. Those in the flow of life are always in the right place
doing the right thing at the right time.
Visual collages
Sometimes, it is good to do a visual collage of the things you want to create, to symbolize
what it is you want to manifest. This gives the Subconscious mind something tangible to
focus upon. Here are the steps:
1 Choose a theme of what you want to manifest.

2 Get a pile of magazines and cut out the images that define your theme
3 Glue these images onto a piece of cardboard
4 Put a photo of you in the image
5 Write : “this or something better manifests now. Thank you God”
6 Pin it up in your house so you can see it everyday
7 Work with affirmation modes to create it so
8 Allow people to help you manifest it.
9 Do affirmations to empower your visual image
10 Meet it half way.
Be sure to be defined and clear with your collage. Be sure to celebrate it when it is created.
You will get to a point where you can just focus on one word affirmations as power thoughts
and you will be able to draw to you from your essence — what you truly desire.
Points to remember
• Create / access the stillness within via a trance hypnotic state when empowering what
you want to create.
• Keep your ideas silent, build the quantum energy within the thought, within the desire.
• Think it, feel it, do it , be it.
• Make it so.
Over the page you will find work grids and interesting information, to help you with your
affirmations, and as you center the self, empower your thoughts, raise your energy may the
blessings of the universe be yours.

What does Hypnosis feel like ?
A trance state is not unconsciousness nor is it being “under”, or asleep, or out to it.
It is not like anaesthesia.
The hypnotic sleep is when you are in a relaxed state of focused awareness. You are often
consciously aware of your thoughts and surroundings. Your mind may be passive or active in where
the mind drifts in thoughts, focus and awareness.
However, you may still be pleasantly surprised by the subconscious to conscious response you have
to following the therapeutic suggestions and commands of your therapist.
The most accurate description of the hypnotic state is “altered awareness” The hypnotized
person knows who and where they are, but is also focused on the directives of the therapist.
Occasionally after trance, a person may have little recollection of the content of the trance itself.
This ‘amnesia’ occurs in the same way that it does when you awake from a dream. Often you are
aware that you have had a dream, but can’t remember what it was.
Hypnosis is a natural state

Hypnosis is a normal, natural process that we all go into at various times in the day and more
prominently at night, when we fall asleep. We all cross over a point in consciousness called the
Hypnoidal Point: A shift in consciousness, when one is half awake and half asleep, relaxed and
comfortable, safe and secure, aware yet not bothered. Hypnotherapists utilise this natural state of
altered awareness (hypnosis) to facilitate change with positive commands to attain the therapeutic
results that you want.
Depth of Trance
Trance States can be light medium or heavy. Regardless, I am trained to know what level you
need to attain the best results. Hypnosis in the hands of a trained professional is 100%
Hypnosis is the oldest and most misunderstood tool for accessing your personal power and to create
change within. Hypnotherapy is one of the Master Therapies and utilises : Neuro Linguistic
Programming Techniques, Gestalt, Direct Suggestions and Commands, Indirect Suggestions and
Commands, Transactional Analysis, Counselling, Metaphors, and Psychotherapy just to name a
few..
The Hypnotherapist communicates with your "Conscious" and "Sub Conscious Mind" and may
utalise, Regression, Progression, Relaxation and altered states of consciousness to facilitate healing
and change.
Thus Hypnotherapy is Very Powerful yet Gentle.
Hypnotherapists also give you the tools to relax, change, and to feel powerful and first-class.

What is HYPNOTHERAPY ?
Greek myths, stories and legends tended to map the human psyche. "Hypnos" (Altered States and Trance)
was a Greek God who would put men to sleep with his wings or magic wand. He was beneficial in
bringing much needed rest to the weary. His brother was "Thanatos" (death) who was said to rule the
night. Hypnos had a son "Morpheus" (Dreams and Visions). All were gateways in which people had to
pass in order to enter Hades (the underworld) or different state of consciousness from within.
Hypnotherapy is the formation of two words representing two modalities "Hypnos" and "Therapy"
"The act of creating an altered state of consciousness,

and the administering of therapy."
Hypnotherapy is one of the Master Therapies and utilises : Neuro Linguistic Programming Techniques,
Gestalt, Direct Suggestions and Commands, Indirect Suggestions and Commands, Transactional
Analysis, Counselling, Metaphors, and Psychotherapy just to name a few..
The Hypnotherapist communicates with your "Conscious" and "Sub Conscious Mind" and may utilise,
Regression, Progression, Relaxation and altered states of consciousness to facilitate healing and change.
Thus Hypnotherapy is Very Powerful yet Gentle.

Hypnotherapists also give you the tools to relax, change, and to feel powerful and first-class.
Hypnotherapy has it's roots in Antiquity the Ancient "Sleep Temples" where healing and change were
facilitated by the "wise ones", and over time has evolved to what we know and utilise today.
Did you know that :
Hypnosis is the oldest and most misunderstood tool for accessing your personal power and to create
change within. There is a big difference between Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, Self Hypnosis and Stage
Hypnotism. Hypnosis is a normal, natural process that we all go into at various times in the day and more
prominently at night, when we fall asleep.

positive commands to attain the therapeutic results that you want.

Did you know that :
Some refer to the shift in consciousness that the hypnotherapist facilitates, as induced somnambulism, or
simply a "trance state" where the action of the subconscious mind is readily called and acted upon
with specific professional suggestions and commands.
Trance States can be light medium or heavy. Regardless, your therapist knows what level you need to
attain the best results. Be sure to understand that you will never do anything against your own will or
moral code of behaviour. You work with your therapist at all times in producing the desired result and
change that you want.
