Instructions

• 1

  Fit meditation into your schedule every day. Spending time in a meditative state and fill your head with positive affirmations to rid yourself of negativity. Meditate first thing in the morning or right before bed.

• 2

  Find a quiet place where there will be no disturbances and sit comfortably on the floor, or on a chair or bed. Start by lighting a candle. The candle will help as a focal point. Using the candle will allow the mind to focus on that one object until relaxation is achieved and all other thoughts are cleared from the mind.

• 3

  Say a positive affirmation, over and over again, as soon as the mind is cleared. Webster's New World College Dictionary defines an affirmation as a "positive declaration." Chose an affirmation such as "I am positive in every thing I do." Make your affirmation in the present tense so your affirmation will not be in an indefinite future.

• 4

  Repeat this affirmation numerous times until the positive feelings are felt, and then blow out the candle. Repeat this meditation as many days as it takes.
