Comments on: My 30-Day Positive Affirmations Experiment Part 1: Getting Started http://www.kevingivens.com/positive-affirmations-experiment-part1/ Mon, 15 Mar 2010 14:48:26 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Jody Kelsch http://www.kevingivens.com/positive-affirmations-experiment-part1/comment-page-1/#comment-994 Jody Kelsch Wed, 01 Apr 2009 02:35:19 +0000 http://www.kevingivens.com/positive-affirmations-experiment-part1/#comment-994 I have been told that the below story sound untrue, but It is 100% true. Me and my wife had been trying for a long time to have a baby. After 2 years and nine months of trying, she decided to start getting monthly blood tests to determine if she was ovulating. About the time she started getting the blood tests, I created a Serenitext account for each of us. In my account I added a message "I am the proud father of several beautiful children" and "I am grateful for my new born baby". In her account I put in messages like "I am pregnant" and "I am grateful for my new born baby". About 2 months after we started receiving our Serenitext messages, she had another blood test. The nurse told us that the numbers indicated that she did not ovulate. And as usual, we were both disappointed. Three weeks later, to our surprise, we found out she was actually pregnant, even though the blood test showed no ovulation. I made my wife go get a blood test to make sure she was pregnant. I was not sure I could believe the over the counter urine test, even though it showed positive. We were so excited. Finally after waiting so long, we were finally going to be parents. At 10 weeks along, we went to her first appointment. The doctor did a customary ultra sound, and to our surprise again, my wife was carrying twins. As of now 3-31-2009 I am writing this post from the hospital room. My twins were born yesterday, they are premature at 31 weeks 4 days. The good part is they are doing great. They will be in the NICU for a few weeks but all in all they look great. If you are wondering what Serenitext is, check out serenitext.com.

I tried a couple affirmations I found in various books I read, but never stuck with it very long. So far, it's been a very good experience. My wife has even noticed a big difference. I appreciate you following the trial. If you have any suggestions that have worked in your own life, please let me know. Maybe I can use your system as another 30-day trial :) I’ve always been the same way Adrian! I tried a couple affirmations I found in various books I read, but never stuck with it very long.

I've always skipped affirmations because...well, I think they're just fluff, and I get more satisfaction out of working towards my goals and *knowing* my values, rather than reading them out loud in the morning. But it'll be interesting to see what your personal results are, and how the affirmations affected your life after a month. :P This’ll be an interesting 30 day trial, ’cause I’m totally curious to see what your results will be.

As silly as it sounds to say, I didn't consider that ALL the words in the "positive" affirmation needed to be positive. lol This will make a great adjustment for the second-half of the experiment. I've had really good results so far. I'm sure I'll have even better results by using your fabulous suggestions. Do you have any examples in your own life of changing something negative into a positive with the use of affirmations? Kaspian,
