Louise Hay - The Wisdom of a Woman

Living for the eighth decade, the writer is active, cheerful and smiling. The worldwide respected Louise Hay is public figure and bestselling author. But most importantly, she is a guru. Having experienced a lot, having analyzed the problems of our time, enduring both pain and joy, she learned to help herself and other people.

At the seminars that the writer arranges and conducts herself, she tells what to do and how to continue living in order to to enjoy life and make it much better than before. Today, Louise Hay is content and happy with everything she has. However, there was a time when she also experienced tragic moments, trouble, fear, childhood resentment and pain. The writer was able to find internal forces and love yourself. This gave her the opportunity to recover from a serious illness.

Biography of Louise Hay

Born into a poor family in Chicago, while in constant fear insults and beatings from her stepfather, not finding support from her mother, who simply did not know how and how to protect her daughter, Louise Hay left her home.

She was 15. Very soon, at the age of 16, she gave birth to a girl. When she was 5 days old, the young mother gave her to a couple who had no children.

Louise Hay has changed many professions. She worked in a restaurant and a pharmacy, and was a secretary at a dance school. After moving to New York, she went to fashion models and achieved good success there. Louise Hay even got married. However, the marriage was short-lived due to the infidelity of the spouse.


Having quite by accident entered the Church of Religious Science for a lesson, Louise lingered in it and after 3 years active work managed to successfully pass the exams. Now she herself began to advise those who needed help. Hay graduated from a pastoral school and learned to meditate. Upon returning to New York, Louise writes a book she calls Heal Your Body. Later a short time she begins lecturing and traveling with them, making her popularity grow by the day.

However, everything stopped when Louise Hay was diagnosed with cancer. This happened in the mid 70s. She wrote in her book and herself was sure that the main cause of this disease is anger and resentment, which have been accumulated over the years. Knowing this, Louise decided to get rid of childhood grievances. To do this, she constantly worked with her mind. In his book, Life! Louise Hay writes: “Forgiveness exercises and efforts to love oneself were the main actions. The result of this was the realization of the truth of my parents' life, when I imagined their childhood. Realizing that they were very unhappy children, I finally managed to forgive them everything.

In addition to working on herself, Louise Hay turned to a nutritionist who prescribed her a strict diet to cleanse her body of toxins. The diet was only green vegetables. "I'm in huge quantities ate pureed asparagus, brussels sprouts, bowel cleansing, reflexology, coffee enemas, praying a lot and walking.” Six months later, visiting a doctor, Louise learned that the cancer was gone.

This battle for life, so dramatic, changed her a lot. Louise Hay moved to California from New York and lives there to this day. She writes books published by her own Hay House publishing house, cultivates a garden, heads the Center, where she advises, heals and helps people.

Louise Hay: New Thoughts

To change your life for the better, you need to change your mind. Louise Hay thinks so. positive people and events can only attract positive thoughts.

And first we need to clear the ground for sowing our consciousness positive images, that is, discard unnecessary memories, stereotypes and resentment. If you focus on the past, you take away vital energy today.“No matter what the problem is, all our sensations and experiences are only a consequence of our thoughts. I am sure that everything in life begins with thoughts.

So, what is worth "growing"? What thoughts?

Open your heart to self-love, urges Louise Hay:“Be unconditional and generous in self-love. Praise yourself a lot. Only by realizing that you are loved by yourself, this feeling can go to all areas of your life. Choose your thoughts carefully and do not criticize yourself. This is what Louise Hay advises: “Under no pretext, never criticize yourself for any faults!”.

Believe that your body with all its shortcomings, virtues and features is suitable for life on Earth only for you. Only with him will you be able to accomplish your plans. “Tell yourself you look great, all the time. If you are unhappy with yourself, then your body and your body cannot function normally. It's akin to if you constantly worked where the boss hates you.

Having experienced for herself that fear and hatred cause ailments, she says: “When any part of the body or its organ gives you discontent, put your love into this place for a month. Systematically. Say you love your body by speaking to it. Ask him for forgiveness for your past hateful behavior."

Louise Hay table

Louise Hay was able to make her own discovery by compiling a special a table with a list of diseases and the metaphysical causes of their appearance. It can be found in the first book, Heal Your Body. The size of the table is quite large, because it contains almost all the main ailments. The writer in the table also gives special spells or affirmations. This is short texts, which must be said out loud many times in order to get rid of diseases by purifying consciousness.

For example, Hay considers the cause of a banal cold to be a mental overstrain or a firm belief that every year in the winter you will definitely have a cold three times.

Considering a wide range of issues, stating simply and clearly, with joyful and warm feeling, knowing how to win over, Louise Hay tells about her views on many important aspects of life for people.

Louise Hay: About diets

The writer believes that any addiction to a particular food indicates violations in metabolic processes. For example, the love of chocolate can be caused by a lack of magnesium. At the same time, a diet that is well balanced and based on the use of a large number fresh cereals, fruits and vegetables, can help normalize the sense of taste.

After a short time, cravings for fatty "delicious" foods will disappear. Sit for three days on a strict juice diet. Believe me, even the simplest food will seem delicious to you! Louise Hay believes that people do not like themselves not because they are fat and ugly, but just the opposite! They are fat and ugly because they don't love themselves!

Louise Hay: About food

“We are what we think and eat. My basic rule is: do not eat what does not grow, but only eat what grows. For example, cereals, nuts, fruits grow, but Snickers do not grow! The writer suggests paying attention to your feelings after eating. If you wanted to sleep, then the food was not suitable. Your food should bring energy and vigor, and not take it away.

Louise Hay: On fasting

“An excellent means of cleansing the body is abstinence from food and fasting. A couple of days on decoctions that contain potassium, or on juices magically affect his condition! But fasting for more than 2 days should be under the supervision of doctors.

Louise Hay: About loneliness

Louise Hay is convinced that loneliness makes it possible to develop. It is a gift and should be used. If there is no ideal man in your life now, then become perfect woman for your beloved!

Louise Hay: About work and money

Louise Hay considers money to be the most sensitive topic for discussion. And all because she thinks that money appears by itself without difficulty. They just need to be tuned in correctly. At the same time, listeners are often sure that money needs to be raised, and that it is not easy. Hay says: “Do what you love, then the money will find you. To do what you like, you simply owe it to your life.” To do this, you need to love any job.

Louise Hay: About education

“We need to stop abusing our children forever so that they don’t grow up to be criminals and bullies with low self-esteem. We need to teach children that all people are worthy of love and respect, convey only positive thoughts to them, cultivate talents in them, then our society will be much better.”

For most people, oddly enough, the most difficult thing in the world is to love yourself ... But it turns out that this quality determines success, happiness and, most importantly, HEALTH.

After living a certain number of years, everyone is different, some people begin to wonder, what is the problem ?! It seems that you are so good, honest, decent, but life somehow passes by and your health is unimportant, etc. Having suffered so for some time, many begin to analyze, read, think, look for the cause of their problems ...

To their surprise, they find out for themselves that they are not alone with such problems and there are people who have discovered the “recipes” for a wonderful and happy life. For example, an absolutely brilliant woman, who overcame the fourth stage of cancer, can be said with one power of thought ... She claims: "love yourself and you will heal your life." What is meant is not selfish love, which is called "self-love." “To love yourself means to respect your personality, to feel love for the very process of life.”

Louise Hay argues that in order to change, you need to follow the basic three principles: the desire to change, control over the mind, forgiveness of yourself and others. According to Louise Hay, it is important to be " open to the world”, because on whom the “protective shell” receives blows from the “world”, because the shell must fulfill its function - protection, and for this, blows are needed.

Having analyzed their psychological problems, Louise Hay concluded that all her misfortunes are the result of low self-esteem. By changing her attitude to herself and to others, she changed her psychology, and then her life. She became prosperous and a healthy person. She shares her experience with people through her books. Here are some of them:
In the book " The complete encyclopedia Louise Hay's health” presents all the affirmations.

In the book Through Meditations to a better life» considered methods of communication with oneself, as well as methods of communication with the subconscious.
The book "Colors and Numbers" proposes to combine into Everyday life affirmations, numbers, colors and spiritual ideals.
The book Wisdom of a Woman shows healing methods. A table is provided by which it is possible to establish the cause of the disease and ways to cure it with the help of affirmations, specifically for each disease.

The basis of her teaching- these are positive statements (affirmations) and representations (visualizations) used for self-hypnosis, spiritual improvement of a person, forgiveness (forgiving one's neighbor and oneself), a cleansing diet.
The essence of her teaching is that what we give is what we get. Each person is responsible for all events in his life. Every thought creates our future. And in short: you need to inspire yourself with the right thoughts and they will cure the body.

Part 1
Philosophy of Louise Hay

The road to wisdom and knowledge is always open.

What do I believe

In essence, our life is very simple: we get back what we give.

Everything we think about ourselves becomes reality. I am convinced that all of us, including me, are responsible for everything in our lives - both good and bad. Every thought we have shapes the future. Each of us creates our life experience with our thoughts, feelings and words.

We create ourselves various situations and then, wasting energy, we place the blame for our disappointments on others. No one and nothing has power over us, since we are the only thinkers in our lives. Only by creating harmony in our minds, we find it in our lives.

Tell me which of the two statements is more typical for you: "People seek to harm me" or "Everyone is ready to help me"? The fact is that each of these beliefs forms a different experience. Our ideas about ourselves and about life acquire real features.

The cosmos supports our every thought that we want to believe.

In other words, our subconscious mind absorbs everything we want to believe in, that is, my ideas about myself and about life become a reality for me, and yours for you. We have unlimited choices about how and what to think. Understanding this, it is better to choose the statement: "Everyone is ready to help me" than "People seek to harm me."

The cosmic force never judges or condemns us.

It accepts us for who we are and then reflects our beliefs in our lives. If I want to believe that life is dull, I am lonely, no one loves me, then this is how my life will turn out.

If I inspire myself that the world is permeated with love, I love and is able to evoke a reciprocal feeling, if I repeat this affirmation many times, then this belief of mine will become a reality. People who love me will come into my life, their feelings will become even stronger, and I will easily express sympathy and heartfelt affection for others.

Most of us have ridiculous ideas about who we are and adhere to strict rules about how we should live.

I say this not in condemnation, since each of us, to the best of his ability and ability, tries to do everything as best as possible.

If we were wiser, better understood ourselves and life, then, of course, we would act differently. Don't beat yourself up about the situation. The very fact that you have discovered Louise Hay means that you are ready to change your life for the better. Thank yourself for this. "Men cry", "Women don't know how to manage money"... What a rigid framework they drive us into!

Our attitude towards ourselves and life is formed in early childhood under the influence of the adults around us.

It is then that we get the first ideas about ourselves and about the world. If you have lived among unhappy, angry, fearful, or guilty people, you have learned a lot of bad things about yourself and your environment. "I always do everything wrong", "It's my fault", "If I'm angry, then I'm bad." Such thoughts make our existence sad and full of disappointments, reflecting the way of life that we want to realize along the way.

Growing up, we strive to recreate the emotional atmosphere in which our childhood passed.

It is difficult to say whether this is good or bad, right or wrong, but this is what in our minds is associated with the concepts of "home", "family". Building our personal relationships, we try to recreate family ties that we had with our parents or between them. It is no coincidence that our lovers and bosses are often “exactly” like mom or dad. We treat ourselves in the same way as our parents treated us, as they did, we scold and punish ourselves. Listen to yourself! You use almost the same words that you heard in the family.

If we were loved in childhood, now, as adults, we also cherish and cherish ourselves.

How often have you said to yourself: “You are doing everything wrong! It's all your fault!"

"You are wonderful! I love you". How often do you say this to yourself now?

Be that as it may, I would not blame my parents for this.

We are all victims of those who themselves were victims in their time. Probably, parents could not teach us what they did not know themselves. If your mother or father did not know how to love themselves, then, of course, they could not teach you to love yourself. They tried their best, and acted as they themselves were taught in childhood. If you want to understand your parents better, talk them into remembering their childhood. After patiently listening to the story, you will understand where their fears and sidelong glances came from. It turns out that the parents you thought were "bad" to you as a child were just as intimidated as you were.

I am sure that we ourselves choose our parents.

Each of us decides to incarnate in a certain way, place and time on this planet. We decided to come here to gain certain knowledge and life experience that would ensure our further spiritual and emotional development. We choose our gender, color, country of birth, and then we look for suitable parents who will reflect the lifestyle that we want to implement on our life path. Then, having matured, we look at them reproachfully and whimper: "It's all your fault!" However, in fact, we chose them ourselves, as they were ideally suited to what we would like to accomplish in our lives.

We form our beliefs in childhood, and then throughout our lives we create situations that respond to them. Look back at your past. You will see how often you find yourself in the same circumstances. I'm sure they reflected what you yourself believe. And it doesn't matter how long this problem existed, how serious it was and to what extent it threatened your life.

Our strength is in the present moment.

All the events of your life up until now have been created by your thoughts, beliefs in the past, and the words you spoke yesterday, last week, last month, last year, ten, twenty, thirty, forty years ago, or even earlier, depending from your age.

However, this is your past. It is gone forever. It is very important to know what you think and what you believe, and what you say exactly in this moment because it is these thoughts and beliefs that will shape your future. Your strength is in the present moment. It is he who determines your actions for tomorrow, next week, next month, etc.

Well, if you would pay attention to what you are thinking right now. Are your thoughts positive or negative? Do you want them to determine your future? Remember them and keep this in mind in the future.

The main thing in our life is thought, and thought can always be changed.

It doesn't matter what the problem is before us; our action is just a reflection of thought. Even if you experience a feeling of deep dissatisfaction with yourself, it is only the result of what you think about yourself that way. "I bad person". This thought forms the feeling that you give in to. Be that as it may, if there is no thought, there will be no feeling. And thoughts can be changed.



The thought will change and you will get rid of the feeling.

All this only explains the origin of many of our beliefs. But we will not use this information to justify obsession with our pain or troubles. No matter how long our negative attitude is, the past has no power over us. The source of our strength this moment. How wonderful to know this! We can start a free life now.

Believe it or not, we choose our thoughts.

We can habitually think about the same thing over and over again, so that it does not even seem that we ourselves choose these thoughts. But we have made a peculiar choice, and we can give up some thoughts. Think about how often you didn't want to think positively about yourself. Now you can stop negative thoughts.

It seems to me that everyone I know or whom I have treated suffers in one way or another from dissatisfaction with themselves and consciousness of their own guilt. The more we hate ourselves than stronger feeling guilt, the less prosperous our life is. And vice versa, the more we value and respect ourselves and the less we blame, the more we achieve success in all areas of life.

The deepest thought of everyone I've treated is, "I'm not good enough." You can also add to this: "I work little" or "I am unworthy." Well, how do you recognize yourself? Have you often told yourself, hinted, or felt that you were “not good enough”? But for whom? And by whose standards?

If this opinion is ingrained in you, then how can you make your life prosperous, full of love, joy and health? This subconscious belief will somehow conflict with your life. There is no way you can combine them, something is bound to go wrong.

I am convinced that resentment, criticism and self-criticism, guilt and fear create the biggest problems.

It is these feelings and states that cause most of the problems in our body and life. And the reason is that we judge others and are not responsible for our actions. Indeed, if we ourselves are responsible for everything that happens in our lives, then there will be no one to blame. Wherever and whatever happens “out there, outside of us,” it is only a reflection of our own consciousness. I am by no means condoning the bad behavior of some people, but it is our beliefs that attract them and provoke them to treat us so badly.

If you catch yourself saying: “Everyone treats me badly, criticizes, does not help, humiliates and insults me,” then this is your psychological attitude, your stereotype of thinking. Probably, some of your thoughts attract the attention of people who allow themselves such behavior. But if you change your attitude, they will step aside and act like this with others. You will no longer be attracted to them.

I will give the results of influence psychological mood on the the physical state of people. So, a long feeling of resentment and anger devours the body and can provoke cancer. Constant Habit judging and criticizing causes arthritis. Guilt is associated with the expectation of punishment, which forms pain. When a patient comes to me complaining of numerous pains, I know that he is tormented by the consciousness of more than one guilt. Fear and tension can contribute to baldness, peptic ulcers and trophic ulcers on the legs.

I came to the conclusion that forgiveness, getting rid of resentment and peace of mind can even cure cancer. While this may sound overly simplistic, I have experienced the truth of the above.

We can change our attitude towards the past.

The past is gone forever. It is not in our power to change it. But we can change our ideas about it. How foolish it is now, at this moment, to punish ourselves for the offense inflicted on us by someone in the distant past.

I often say to people suffering from resentment, “Please start getting rid of this feeling now, while it is quite easy to do. Don't wait until you're under the surgeon's knife or on your deathbed. Then the horror will seize you, you will start to panic, and it will be very difficult for us to focus your thoughts on the treatment. It will take time first to rid you of your fear.”

If you convince yourself that you are helpless and defenseless victims and all our efforts to cure you are useless, then the Cosmos will support this belief, as a result your condition will worsen every day. It is imperative that you get out of your head the stupid, rigid and sad thoughts that do not support you. Even our concept of God should work for us, not against us.

In order to get rid of the past, we must be willing to forgive.

We must be willing to let go of the past and forgive everyone, including ourselves. Maybe we don't know how to do it, but perhaps even the phrase "We intend to forgive" means the beginning of a healing process.

Healing is only possible if we let go of the past and forgive everyone.

“I forgive you for not being the way I would like you to be. I forgive and release you." This affirmation makes us free.

All diseases come from unwillingness to forgive

In the book "A Lecture Course on Miracles" (author - Wapnick Kenneth. - Red) it is said that all sickness comes from an unwillingness to forgive people and ourselves, and that every time we fall sick, we must look around and see who we have to forgive.



And I would add to this: you will find that it will be most difficult for you to forgive the very person who needs to be allowed to leave before the others. Forgiveness means giving up, giving in, letting go. But this has nothing to do with bad behavior. It's just getting rid of the whole problem. We don't need to know HOW to forgive. The only thing that is required of us is to have the DESIRE, the INTENTION to forgive. The cosmos will take care of how to do it. We always feel our pain. But for many of us, it's so hard to imagine that those who need forgiveness the most have also felt hurt. We must understand that they tried to do the best they could with the knowledge and information available to them at the time.

When people come to me with their problems, whether it be poor health, lack of money, less-than-perfect relationships, or diminished creativity, the only thing I work on with them is LOVE YOURSELF.

I believe that when we truly love and accept ourselves for who we really are, everything in life goes well. Our health improves, we earn more money our relationship becomes more harmonious, and Creative skills are fully revealed. It seems that everything happens without our efforts, of course.

Love and peace of mind, a calm, friendly and trusting atmosphere make your work more organized, relationships warmer. In this state, you will quickly find new job, better than it was, housing and even be able to normalize your weight. It is known that people who love themselves and their bodies never mistreat themselves or others.

Your peace of mind and self-acceptance now is the key to beneficial changes in all areas of life in the future.

In my opinion, self-love begins with the rejection of any self-criticism ever and for anything. Criticism and condemnation drive us into the framework of those stereotypes of thinking that we are trying to change. Understanding and kindness help to get out of this framework. Remember, for years you have tormented yourself with self-criticism. And what came of it? Try to live in harmony with yourself and see what happens next.



Part 2
Classes with Louise

Chapter I
What is the problem?

Don't be afraid to look into your soul.

My body is not functioning.

It hurts, bleeds, ache, presses, ache, burns, grows old, dries out. I can't see well, I can't hear well... Plus many other sensations and states that are peculiar only to you. But I've heard it all!

Relationships with people around me are far from ideal.

Relatives or people around me all the time demand something, do not support me, condemn, do not like, bother me, do not want me to disturb them, do not allow me to be alone, bully, never listen to me ... It's all so familiar. Is there anything else you can add?

My financial affairs are deplorable.

There are no incomes, if they appear, they are very rare, there is never enough money, they slip through your fingers faster than they come; my income does not allow me to pay my bills on time ... Plus what you can think of yourself. I think you and I have heard this somewhere before?

My life is not going well.

I never do what I would like to. I can't please anyone. I do not know what I want. My wants and needs are being ignored. I do everything just to please them. I am humiliated and bullied in every possible way. I have no talent. I can't do anything. I always put things off until later. I'm just unlucky ... Isn't it all painfully familiar?

Whenever I ask my patient how he (she) is doing, I always get one of the above answers, and sometimes several at once. People are usually convinced that they know their problems. But I know that these complaints are just an outward manifestation of their way of thinking, their psychological attitude. Under them are hidden other problems, deeper, which are the basis of all external manifestations.

I carefully listen to the speech of the interlocutors, to the words that they use, and ask a few questions that I consider the main ones:

What is going on in your life?

How are you feeling?

How do you earn a living?

Do you love your work?

What is your financial situation?

What is your personal life like?

How did your last novel end?

And the last one?

Tell me briefly about your childhood.

When talking with patients, I observe their facial expressions, the posture they take, but the main attention is paid to their words. It is known that thoughts and words determine our future. Listening to how and what a person says, I can easily understand the cause of his specific problems. After all, our words reflect our hidden thoughts. Sometimes the words used by patients are not consistent with the actions they talk about. Then it's clear to me that patients are either unaware real events or lie to me. One of these assumptions is the starting point of our work.

EXERCISE "I MUST"

I give patients a sheet of paper, a pen, and ask them to write the heading: “I must” at the top.

Part 1
Philosophy of Louise Hay

The road to wisdom and knowledge is always open.

What do I believe

In essence, our life is very simple: we get back what we give.

Everything we think about ourselves becomes reality. I am convinced that all of us, including me, are responsible for everything in our lives - both good and bad. Every thought we have shapes the future. Each of us creates our life experience with our thoughts, feelings and words.

We ourselves create various situations, and then, wasting energy, we place the blame for our disappointments on others. No one and nothing has power over us, since we are the only thinkers in our lives. Only by creating harmony in our minds, we find it in our lives.

Tell me which of the two statements is more typical for you: "People seek to harm me" or "Everyone is ready to help me"? The fact is that each of these beliefs forms a different experience. Our ideas about ourselves and about life acquire real features.

The cosmos supports our every thought that we want to believe.

In other words, our subconscious mind absorbs everything we want to believe in, that is, my ideas about myself and about life become a reality for me, and yours for you. We have unlimited choices about how and what to think. Understanding this, it is better to choose the statement: "Everyone is ready to help me" than "People seek to harm me."

The cosmic force never judges or condemns us.

It accepts us for who we are and then reflects our beliefs in our lives. If I want to believe that life is dull, I am lonely, no one loves me, then this is how my life will turn out.

If I inspire myself that the world is permeated with love, I love and is able to evoke a reciprocal feeling, if I repeat this affirmation many times, then this belief of mine will become a reality. People who love me will come into my life, their feelings will become even stronger, and I will easily express sympathy and heartfelt affection for others.

Most of us have ridiculous ideas about who we are and adhere to strict rules about how we should live.

I say this not in condemnation, since each of us, to the best of his ability and ability, tries to do everything as best as possible.

If we were wiser, better understood ourselves and life, then, of course, we would act differently. Don't beat yourself up about the situation. The very fact that you have discovered Louise Hay means that you are ready to change your life for the better. Thank yourself for this. "Men cry", "Women don't know how to manage money"... What a rigid framework they drive us into!

Our attitude towards ourselves and life is formed in early childhood under the influence of adults around us.

It is then that we get the first ideas about ourselves and about the world. If you have lived among unhappy, angry, fearful, or guilty people, you have learned a lot of bad things about yourself and your environment. "I always do everything wrong", "It's my fault", "If I'm angry, then I'm bad." Such thoughts make our existence sad and full of disappointments, reflecting the way of life that we want to realize along the way.

Growing up, we strive to recreate the emotional atmosphere in which our childhood passed.

It is difficult to say whether this is good or bad, right or wrong, but this is what in our minds is associated with the concepts of "home", "family". Building our personal relationships, we try to recreate the family ties that we had with our parents or between them. It is no coincidence that our lovers and bosses are often “exactly the same” as mom or dad. We treat ourselves in the same way as our parents treated us, as they did, we scold and punish ourselves. Listen to yourself! You use almost the same words that you heard in the family.

If we were loved in childhood, now, as adults, we also cherish and cherish ourselves.

How often have you said to yourself: “You are doing everything wrong! It's all your fault!"

"You are wonderful! I love you". How often do you say this to yourself now?

Be that as it may, I would not blame my parents for this.

We are all victims of those who themselves were victims in their time. Probably, parents could not teach us what they did not know themselves. If your mother or father did not know how to love themselves, then, of course, they could not teach you to love yourself. They tried their best, and acted as they themselves were taught in childhood. If you want to understand your parents better, talk them into remembering their childhood. After patiently listening to the story, you will understand where their fears and sidelong glances came from. It turns out that the parents you thought were "bad" to you as a child were just as intimidated as you were.

I am sure that we ourselves choose our parents.

Each of us decides to incarnate in a certain way, place and time on this planet. We decided to come here to gain certain knowledge and life experience that would ensure our further spiritual and emotional development. We choose our gender, color, country of birth, and then we look for suitable parents who will reflect the lifestyle that we want to realize on our life path. Then, having matured, we look at them reproachfully and whimper: "It's all your fault!" However, in fact, we chose them ourselves, as they were ideally suited to what we would like to accomplish in our lives.

We form our beliefs in childhood, and then throughout our lives we create situations that respond to them. Look back at your past. You will see how often you find yourself in the same circumstances. I'm sure they reflected what you yourself believe. And it doesn't matter how long this problem existed, how serious it was and to what extent it threatened your life.

Our strength is in the present moment.

All the events of your life up until now have been created by your thoughts, beliefs in the past, and the words you spoke yesterday, last week, last month, last year, ten, twenty, thirty, forty years ago, or even earlier, depending from your age.

However, this is your past. It is gone forever. It is very important to know what you are thinking and believing in and what you are saying right now, because it is these thoughts and beliefs that will shape your future. Your strength is in the present moment. It is he who determines your actions for tomorrow, next week, next month, etc.

Well, if you would pay attention to what you are thinking right now. Are your thoughts positive or negative? Do you want them to determine your future? Remember them and keep this in mind in the future.

The main thing in our life is thought, and thought can always be changed.

It doesn't matter what the problem is before us; our action is just a reflection of thought. Even if you experience a feeling of deep dissatisfaction with yourself, it is only the result of what you think about yourself that way. "I am a bad man". This thought forms the feeling that you give in to. Be that as it may, if there is no thought, there will be no feeling. And thoughts can be changed.



The thought will change and you will get rid of the feeling.

All this only explains the origin of many of our beliefs. But we will not use this information to justify obsession with our pain or troubles. No matter how long our negative attitude is, the past has no power over us. The source of our strength is the present moment. How wonderful to know this! We can start a free life now.

Believe it or not, we choose our thoughts.

We can habitually think about the same thing over and over again, so that it does not even seem that we ourselves choose these thoughts. But we have made a peculiar choice, and we can give up some thoughts. Think about how often you didn't want to think positively about yourself. Now you can stop negative thoughts.

It seems to me that everyone I know or whom I have treated suffers in one way or another from dissatisfaction with themselves and consciousness of their own guilt. The more we hate ourselves, the stronger the feeling of guilt, the less prosperous our life is. And vice versa, the more we value and respect ourselves and the less we blame, the more we achieve success in all areas of life.

The deepest thought of everyone I've treated is, "I'm not good enough." You can also add to this: "I work little" or "I am unworthy." Well, how do you recognize yourself? Have you often told yourself, hinted, or felt that you were “not good enough”? But for whom? And by whose standards?

If this opinion is ingrained in you, then how can you make your life prosperous, full of love, joy and health? This subconscious belief will somehow conflict with your life. There is no way you can combine them, something is bound to go wrong.

I am convinced that resentment, criticism and self-criticism, guilt and fear create the biggest problems.

It is these feelings and states that cause most of the problems in our body and life. And the reason is that we judge others and are not responsible for our actions. Indeed, if we ourselves are responsible for everything that happens in our lives, then there will be no one to blame. Wherever and whatever happens “out there, outside of us,” it is only a reflection of our own consciousness. I am by no means condoning the bad behavior of some people, but it is our beliefs that attract them and provoke them to treat us so badly.

If you catch yourself saying: “Everyone treats me badly, criticizes, does not help, humiliates and insults me,” then this is your psychological attitude, your stereotype of thinking. Probably, some of your thoughts attract the attention of people who allow themselves such behavior. But if you change your attitude, they will step aside and act like this with others. You will no longer be attracted to them.

I will give the results of the influence of the psychological attitude on the physical condition of people. So, a long feeling of resentment and anger devours the body and can provoke cancer. The constant habit of judging and criticizing causes arthritis. Guilt is associated with the expectation of punishment, which forms pain. When a patient comes to me complaining of numerous pains, I know that he is tormented by the consciousness of more than one guilt. Fear and tension can contribute to baldness, peptic ulcers and trophic ulcers on the legs.

I came to the conclusion that forgiveness, getting rid of resentment and peace of mind can even cure cancer. While this may sound overly simplistic, I have experienced the truth of the above.

We can change our attitude towards the past.

The past is gone forever. It is not in our power to change it. But we can change our ideas about it. How foolish it is now, at this moment, to punish ourselves for the offense inflicted on us by someone in the distant past.

I often say to people suffering from resentment, “Please start getting rid of this feeling now, while it is quite easy to do. Don't wait until you're under the surgeon's knife or on your deathbed. Then the horror will seize you, you will start to panic, and it will be very difficult for us to focus your thoughts on the treatment. It will take time first to rid you of your fear.”

If you convince yourself that you are helpless and defenseless victims and all our efforts to cure you are useless, then the Cosmos will support this belief, as a result your condition will worsen every day. It is imperative that you get out of your head the stupid, rigid and sad thoughts that do not support you. Even our concept of God should work for us, not against us.

In order to get rid of the past, we must be willing to forgive.

We must be willing to let go of the past and forgive everyone, including ourselves. Maybe we don't know how to do it, but perhaps even the phrase "We intend to forgive" means the beginning of a healing process.

Healing is only possible if we let go of the past and forgive everyone.

“I forgive you for not being the way I would like you to be. I forgive and release you." This affirmation makes us free.

All diseases come from unwillingness to forgive

In the book "A Lecture Course on Miracles" (author - Wapnick Kenneth. - Red) it is said that all sickness comes from an unwillingness to forgive people and ourselves, and that every time we fall sick, we must look around and see who we have to forgive.



And I would add to this: you will find that it will be most difficult for you to forgive the very person who needs to be allowed to leave before the others. Forgiveness means giving up, giving in, letting go. But this has nothing to do with bad behavior. It's just getting rid of the whole problem. We don't need to know HOW to forgive. The only thing that is required of us is to have the DESIRE, the INTENTION to forgive. The cosmos will take care of how to do it. We always feel our pain. But for many of us, it's so hard to imagine that those who need forgiveness the most have also felt hurt. We must understand that they tried to do the best they could with the knowledge and information available to them at the time.

When people come to me with their problems, whether it be poor health, lack of money, less-than-perfect relationships, or diminished creativity, the only thing I work on with them is LOVE YOURSELF.

I believe that when we truly love and accept ourselves for who we really are, everything in life goes well. Our health improves, we earn more money, our relationships become more harmonious, and our creativity is fully revealed. It seems that everything happens without our efforts, of course.

Love and peace of mind, a calm, friendly and trusting atmosphere make your work more organized, relationships warmer. In this state, you will quickly find a new job, a better place than before, housing, and even be able to normalize your weight. It is known that people who love themselves and their bodies never mistreat themselves or others.

Your peace of mind and self-acceptance now is the key to beneficial changes in all areas of life in the future.

In my opinion, self-love begins with the rejection of any self-criticism ever and for anything. Criticism and condemnation drive us into the framework of those stereotypes of thinking that we are trying to change. Understanding and kindness help to get out of this framework. Remember, for years you have tormented yourself with self-criticism. And what came of it? Try to live in harmony with yourself and see what happens next.



Part 2
Classes with Louise

Chapter I
What is the problem?

Don't be afraid to look into your soul.

My body is not functioning.

It hurts, bleeds, ache, presses, ache, burns, grows old, dries out. I can't see well, I can't hear well... Plus many other sensations and states that are peculiar only to you. But I've heard it all!

Relationships with people around me are far from ideal.

Relatives or people around me all the time demand something, do not support me, condemn, do not like, bother me, do not want me to disturb them, do not allow me to be alone, bully, never listen to me ... It's all so familiar. Is there anything else you can add?

My financial affairs are deplorable.

There are no incomes, if they appear, they are very rare, there is never enough money, they slip through your fingers faster than they come; my income does not allow me to pay my bills on time ... Plus what you can think of yourself. I think you and I have heard this somewhere before?

My life is not going well.

I never do what I would like to. I can't please anyone. I do not know what I want. My wants and needs are being ignored. I do everything just to please them. I am humiliated and bullied in every possible way. I have no talent. I can't do anything. I always put things off until later. I'm just unlucky ... Isn't it all painfully familiar?

Whenever I ask my patient how he (she) is doing, I always get one of the above answers, and sometimes several at once. People are usually convinced that they know their problems. But I know that these complaints are just an outward manifestation of their way of thinking, their psychological attitude. Under them are hidden other problems, deeper, which are the basis of all external manifestations.

I carefully listen to the speech of the interlocutors, to the words that they use, and ask a few questions that I consider the main ones:

What is going on in your life?

How are you feeling?

How do you earn a living?

Do you love your work?

What is your financial situation?

What is your personal life like?

How did your last novel end?

And the last one?

Tell me briefly about your childhood.

When talking with patients, I observe their facial expressions, the posture they take, but the main attention is paid to their words. It is known that thoughts and words determine our future. Listening to how and what a person says, I can easily understand the cause of his specific problems. After all, our words reflect our hidden thoughts. Sometimes the words used by patients are not consistent with the actions they talk about. Then it is clear to me that the patients are either not aware of the real events, or they are lying to me. One of these assumptions is the starting point of our work.

EXERCISE "I MUST"

I give patients a sheet of paper, a pen, and ask them to write the heading: “I must” at the top.

Then I propose to finish this phrase in five or six ways. Some find it difficult to even start the exercise, while others are not easy to stop. When all the answers are written, I ask the patients to read them aloud in order, beginning with the words "I must ...". After each answer I ask: "Why?"

The answers I get are interesting and frank. They go something like this: “My mother said I should”, “Because I’m afraid”, “Because I have to be perfect”, “Because I have to do it every day”, “Because I’m too lazy (short) , tall, too fat, too thin, taciturn, very ugly, completely useless, etc.)”.



The answers show that these people participate in the formation of their opinion, which limits their behavior.

Without commenting on the answers, at the end of the session I talk with patients on the topic “The verb “SHOULD”.

I am sure that this verb is one of the most, so to speak, destructive words in our language. Every time we say it, we are, in fact, speaking incorrectly. We are either wrong now, or we have made a mistake, or we are going to make one. I don't think we need new "mistakes" in life. We should have more free choice. If I had my way, I would completely remove the verb “should” from the dictionary, replacing it with the expression “I could”, because it gives us a chance not to make mistakes.

It turns out that some patients for years reproached themselves for acts committed against their will, or condemned themselves for unfulfilled plans and dreams. Very often they did this, following the advice or instructions of other people. Now, realizing this, they could easily cross this phrase off the list with the verb “should” by doing my exercise. What a relief they immediately felt!

Look at people who for years, against their will, only for the sake of their parents, force themselves to make a career. And all because they thought: "He should become a dentist or a teacher." How often we suffer from the consciousness of our own inferiority, because someone said that by following the example of some relative, we "should" become richer, more energetic or more beautiful.

What would you feel relieved to cross off your “should” list?

After completing the exercise, my interlocutors begin to look at their lives with different eyes. They understand that they acted one way or another against their will and desire, it was simply considered mandatory. They feared their refusal to offend anyone, tried to please others, or considered themselves "bad."

Now the problem takes on a different shape. Friends! I began my lesson with an attempt to relieve you of the consciousness of my “wrongness”, my inconsistency with someone else's standards.

Then I usually introduce you to my philosophy of life, as outlined at the beginning of this book. Here is its essence. Life is really very simple: we get what we give to others. The universe fully supports the beliefs we choose to have. Even in childhood, under the influence of adults, we learn to evaluate ourselves. Over the years, our beliefs, whatever they may be, are reflected in our actions. Exist different variants psychological mood. Our strength is in the present moment. Change can begin right now, this minute.
