The Daily Affirmations are from Paul C. Bragg's book AWAKEN HEALTH & HAPPINESS which is a year long program for purifying our minds, bodies, and souls in order to tap into the Force of Nature. By tapping into this magnificent source, which nurtures and maintains balance in the entire universe, we can indeed make the most of our lives, and fulfill our Ultimate Potential as Human Beings.

The Affirmation Program is categorized by Season, and sub-categorized by Month. What follows on this page are the teachings for the current Season and Month.

Paul's instructions for using the affirmations: "The first step in achieving a firm relationship with the Divine Flow of Power is to go into silence.  You can obtain Divine silence any place in the world.  No dark room is necessary.  All earthly disturbances must be banished.  Close your mind to outside influences and start to commune with your spirit.  In other words, contact the Divine Flow, which is ever-present, just as the ether waves of radio are always in the air.  Shut out all other thoughts and forces.  Repeat the affirmation for the day indicated.  Read it with the consciousness and the faith that you are pouring out your soul to the Divine Creator.  Be positive.  Repeat every word either orally or mentally.  Linger on each word.  Put behind it every ounce of energy you have.  Make this a living part of you.  Make the affirmation vibrate with every beat of your heart.

Let no one disturb you.  If necessary, stop on a corner of the busiest streets and, putting your hand in the hand of the Divine Presence, repeat at least 100 times the affirmation given for the day." 

PART FOUR

AUTUMN – The Fulfillment

WITH AUTUMN comes the harvest, the reaping of the golden, lush grains and the fulfillment in luscious fruits that spring blossoms have promised. It is a season of plenty, when the earth offers up all her treasures. It is Nature's season of fulfillment. Every act to which she has directed herself all year has culminated in this rich bearing of precious goods. We, too, have worked all year for a purpose. We have concentrated our efforts on bringing to fruition all our desires, our powers of mind, body, and soul. Now we reach the glorious harvest season, when we may reap the golden grains of wisdom that we planted. We will find the true fulfillment of our harmonious being.

CHAPTER ELEVEN

The Blending of Forces

"Logic makes only one demand -- that of conscience -- but life makes a thousand. The body wants health. The imagination cries out for beauty, and the heart for love. Pride asks for consideration; the soul yearns for peace; the conscience for holiness. Our whole being is athirst for happiness and for perfection." -- Amiel

WE HAVE DEVELOPED all our forces -- the mental, the moral, and the spiritual. We have developed understanding, peace of mind, the sense of beauty, appreciation of the true inner self, and the splendid life force. Now, we must blend all these forces and make them one -- make them one in perfection and harmony and realize the completion of our being. One quality is almost useless without another. Intelligence can be of no real value unless it has physical strength back of it to carry out its ideas. Moral power can be totally ineffective if it lacks the physical strength to carry out its ideals. Inversely, health alone is valueless unless it is accompanied by mental and spiritual development. A criminal may be intelligent, but he is not well-balanced. He lacks the moral and esthetic sense, and he very often is poor in health. Complete wholeness and harmony are necessary for the perfect life.
