How to shut down negative self-talk? The number one thing you need to do is build a habit of recognizing the patterns of negative self-talk and start replacing them with new positive patterns. In my book, Powerful Manifestor Pt.1 Power 3 Method, I teach you how to create new habits easily by completing the exercises that I created to help me to do the same thing!
We have to start to speak things as though they are. When you say, "I suck at this", you are putting that out into the universe, and that energy comes back to you. So, it's important to recognize that, and then immediately replace that thought with something positive-even if you don't believe it-the trick is, eventually, you'll believe it. Pen down some positive thoughts about yourself when you notice a negative one creeps in.
In this episode, I help you to do this by providing an exercise that truly tricks your mind into new healthy self-talk and affirming statements. I mentioned that there is a scripture in the Bible that says to speak things as though they are. The scripture I am referring to is Romans 4:17, which reads: "As it is written, 'I have made you the father of many nations.' He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed--the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not."
This verse speaks of God's power to bring things into existence (manifest) through faith, even if they did not previously exist. It emphasizes the importance of speaking and believing in things that we desire or hope for as if they have already come to fruition. This idea is also echoed in Mark 11:23, where Jesus says, "Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them." We are always manifesting, it doesn't matter who we are, or what we believe in our words are powerful. And what we speak starts with what we think and how much faith we have in our thoughts.
You will need the Powerful Manifestor Journal or any Journal that you have that can be designated for manifesting and building new healthy habits.
You will need a pen (a manifestation pen or pen that is special to you if it is possible to find one)
You will need headphones (if possible-not required).
The meditation music that I recommend for the exercise in this episode is 528 frequency music by Meditative Mind on YouTube.
