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.
