<\/p>\n


I am a divine and beautiful being.<\/p>\n

I choose to live each moment with appreciation and
complete acceptance of my own divinity and beauty.<\/p>\n

I choose to appreciate and accept the beauty in all
beings and the perfect divinity in each moment.<\/p>\n

I open my heart to the possibility of love and benefit
from every being and each moment.<\/p>\n

I purge myself of all doubt, negativity, judgmental
tendencies, guilt, panic, and fearful thinking.<\/p>\n

I always seek that which I need to grow, to bud, to
bloom, to blossom, to fruit, to bear seed.<\/p>\n

I dare to draw into myself the positive manifestation of
each trial and difficulty; the rightness of every lesson.<\/p>\n

I breathe deeply and savor the love and benefit that
surrounds and embraces my life as I live it each moment.<\/p>\n

I forgive myself with each breath I take and renew my
transformative intentions with every beat of my heart.<\/p>\n

I glory in the goodness and rightness of all that I
encounter and all that I am.<\/p>\n

I am a divine and beautiful being.<\/p>\n
