Messy Musicians and Creatives Chaos to Compassion Day 18 Spells

Hallo dear hearts,


Let’s have a look at how we talk to ourselves. Are we kind, loving and gentle? Or do we have a harsh inner critic telling us we’re not doing (well) enough? Do you have low expectations telling yourself not to bother or that you don’t deserve? 


See if you can notice today any self sabotaging thoughts. Write them down, and counter them. Deliberately reprogram with kinder or more positive language. If you wouldn’t say things to a dear friend or a young child, let’s stop saying them to ourselves. 


Words have power. Sound carries intention. Let’s create the reality we prefer –  abrahadabra means “I create as I speak”. And words are literally spelled. They are spells. If you put your hand over your larynx (at the front of your throat) when you say things even to yourself, silently, the larynx moves. Try it!


How many times today do you say should, have to, ought to, need to or must? These usually indicate externally conditioned beliefs.  


Apart from the rest, the gratitude and the phone boundary – all as best as you can and not perfect – all I’m asking you to do today is to have a look at the language of your inner talk and just notice the disempowering and unkind spells we have going on. 


And how about a 5min timer somewhere easy?
