Yesterday’s tip for creating a Magical year had to do with paying attention to inner wisdom, and specifically paying attention to what messages you may get through your body.
The second tip is to pay attention to the words you use, and notice what happens in your body when you use them. Become aware of ways in which you hint that something is “impossible”, and stretch your language for possibilities. Here’s what I mean by that.
Replace words like “I can’t,” with phrases like “I won’t,” or “I don’t want,” (the latter being not only more empowering, but probably closer to the truth). Do you notice a difference with how each of those phrases feel in your body?
Replace “I shouldn’t,” with something like “I could,” (which you could even follow with “if I wanted to”). When you find yourself thinking something is “impossible,” ask “what if it were possible?” Again, pay attention to what happens in your body when you use each of those language options. By the way, ever notice the word “possible” lives inside the word “impossible?” Think about it!
Take ownership of your words and your personal power is likely to rise, along with your energy level! The second phrases in each example are empowering. They put the ball in your court and allow you to start noticing what’s important to you. In addition, “what if” questions bring in a playful energy, and invite other solutions where you might otherwise be limiting yourself.
Start playing with your language and see how things change for you!
To recap, the first tip was about paying attention to inner wisdom. Tip 2 is about noticing and changing words you use to empower yourself, and invite the energy of wonder.
