I Am Health

“While there is no healing power in the repetition of strings of words,
yet it is a very convenient thing to have the central thoughts so
formulated that you can repeat them readily, so that you can use them as
affirmations whenever you are surrounded by an environment which gives
you adverse suggestions. When those around you begin to talk of sickness
and death, close your ears and mentally assert something like the
following:–

_There is One Substance, and I am that Substance._

_That Substance is eternal, and it is Life; I am that
Substance, and I am Eternal Life._

_That Substance knows no disease; I am that Substance, and I am
Health._

Exercise your will power in choosing only those thoughts which are
thoughts of health, and arrange your environment so that it shall
suggest thoughts of health. Do not have about you books, pictures, or
other things which suggest death, disease, deformity, weakness, or age;
have only those which convey the ideas of health, power, joy, vitality,
and youth. When you are confronted with a book, or anything else which
suggests disease, do not give it your attention. Think of your
conception of health, and your gratitude, and affirm as above; use your
will power to fix your attention upon thoughts of health.”
