Peace Begins Within

Affirmations:
I walk in peace.
I think and talk with peace.

There is no need to deny the Love in me; I Am free.

World Peace Day

Attack begets attack.
Judgment comes from fear.
When we are fearful, we need to know we are safe.
When we are judged, we feel afraid.

To attack, judge, condemn or hurt another creates a counter attack, unless we bring peace.
T extend Peace, we must clear our minds of fear.
To extend Peace we must forgive ourselves for our condemnation and judgment.
To extend Peace we must believe peace and forgiveness work.

When we believe that one wrong act deserves another, we will attack or threaten attack.
When we think that our anger, violence, threats and hurtfulness will keep us safe, we are mistaken.
When we make up we can defend ourselves by threatening others, we learn fear doesn’t bring peace.
If peace and harmony are our goals, we must seek a better way.

Find your own way to be at peace.
Create a safe place in your mind and home.
Let go of resentment, criticism, bullying and judging.
Give up doing harm to others with your thoughts, words and actions.

Whenever anyone feels bullied, threatened, hurt or abused, they hold fear, resentment and defensiveness.
Whenever anyone feels heard, believed, forgiven and forgiving, they begin to trust.
When the trust is considered as helpful to create more safety and peace, people begin to trust.
When people trust they are safe, they feel content, peaceful, open-minded and trusting.

Whenever you can stop the drama.
Step away and see to respond with Love.
Wherever you can, say “I am sorry” and Forgive.
Pause and breathe deep before reacting with more drama.

However you can stop the violence.
Remember thoughts create, so stop thinking about hurting anyone.
Whenever you can eliminate angry words and actions.
Stop watching violent actions and speaking violent words.

This is the time to bring peace to your mind.
Bring peace to your relationships.
Bring peace to your life.
Be the Peace you want to see.

Thank you for bringing peace to our world.

The 12 Principles of Attitudinal Healing
By Jerry Jampolsky, MD and ACIM
1.       The essence of our being is love.

2.       Health is inner peace, healing is letting go of fear.

3.       Giving and receiving are the same.

4.       We can let go of the past and of the future.

5.       Now is the only time there is, and each instant is for giving.

6.       We can learn to love ourselves and others by forgiving rather than by judging.

7.       We can become love finders rather than fault finders.

8.       We can choose and direct ourselves to be peaceful inside, regardless of what is happening outside.

9.       We are students and teachers to each other.

10.    We can focus on the whole of life, rather than the fragments.

11.    Since love is eternal, change need not be viewed as fearful.

12.    We can always perceive others as either extending love or giving a call for help.


Attitudinal Healing affirms that we are responsible for our thoughts and whatever feelings we experience.

Attitudinal Healing encourages us to re-examine our relationships, bringing them into the present by releasing past judgments and grievances.


Attitudinal Healing reminds us that perception is a mirror of what is in our mind.
