Subject:  Re: [vocalist-temporary] Question about affirmations


>>These affirmations intrigue me...........I am definitely going to start using
them! The difficulty for me is that I am very hard on myself and find it
hard to state really positive things without feeling like I might be
lying.................

Thus it's people like you (us!) who need to use positive affirmations most of
all! :) You're not lying; you're simply stating your wishes in the present
tense. There's no law against wishing! Just be careful what you ask for!
You might get it!

>>Could affirmations affect something as physical as this? I
mean, if I stated over and over "my larynx will remain low and stable when I
sing" could my brain start believing this and make it work?

Absolutely! That's the whole point. You can program your subconscious mind
(and others have done it for you for years!) to believe whatever you wish!
Go for it! Costs nothing to try, and you may be pleasantly surprised, if you
are diligent.
