Publisher's summary

This powerful audio program, created and narrated by Louise L. Hay, contains a series of positive affirmations that will help you experience the joy, fulfillment, love, and wonder that are present in you right now. Hearing affirmations audibly or subliminally is like the planting of seeds in a well-tended garden. It takes time for them to germinate, take root, and blossom. So, to reap the maximum benefits from affirmations, you need only be faithful and consistent in your use of this program. It is recommended that you listen to it twice a day for at least 30 days. You can easily do this while you relax, work, do your chores, or sleep.

Great

Great affirmation s and music. I love all of Loiise's books and audios. I will continue to buy her books.

Not subliminal, but affirmations are good

There is a time in everyone's life when they need to hear this kind of stuff--and reminders after that initial use every so often. I'm always glad to hear what kind of subliminal message I'm going to hear, but this never becomes subliminal. As much as I like Louise L. Hay's voice in other recordings, this is not my favorite. The music is too loud and you don't hear a thing at 1. it makes everything too jarring for a meditation, and for me, for just listening to it. This would have been great with different background music and everything softened.

Best thing that i have heard for some time now

I may be biased Louie hay has been a favourite for quite some time .her book , only one that i have read you can heal your life prompted me to pick up this title . wanted to record a tape for myself but this Saved the trouble . the music in the background is very soothingtoo . there are tons of free mp3's that are available on the net . and a lot of cassettes(CD's) too but i guess for me it remained on the to do list for quite some time .


The file plays for about an hour and has the affiramtions read out in both first person as well as second person ( check the hear a sample )

Worth a purchase .

Thank you

I love it!
The back ground music is calming helping you to repeat what she helps you affirm. Most of the time our self talk is negative and I've never met a person who was successful who was a pessamist?
I've come a long way and this program is awesome because for me it simply serves as a reminder.
I no longer live a life of a victim, but a victor!
A wise person once told me how you know something?
You are living it! That's it!
Thank you

Awesome Affirmations!

I love listening to the calming voice of Louise Hay.
I listen to her on the way to work (I work 10-12 hours in retail) to help give me the positive outlook I need to get through the day. Thanks Louise & I love you TOO!!!

Doing something

All I can say is I was struggling with thinking about my separated spouse and the affair partner constantly. I went back and forth in my mind and was obsessive. After about 3 weeks I realized my thoughts had declined significantly and I knew I deserved better. I continue to listen and it has made a huge difference in my mindset. I am about 4 weeks in and feeling a sense of content I have not had in years.

Kind words

I 1st borrowed the audio from my local library. Don't be deceived this seems hokey but it isn't, if you're feeling dispirited, depressed, I really encourage you to just try this. I reccommend you play it at bedtime, softly, not too loud. The cons is the music. It's weird, just awful, not gonna lie. It's a mix of 70s sitcom theme/after school special/elevator music weirdness. When my anxiety was high, the music was distracting. But, I found that when I just focused on the affirmation, really allowed myself to hear each word, the music wasn't as much a distraction. Focusing on the affirmations became a mediation. The result was I'm able to better quiet my mind. This inadvertently has helped my mediatation practice. A few days in, I felt lifted, better. After exhausting my library borrowing priveleges, and seeing how much better I felt, I was moved to purchase this. It's really a great tool to help build self-esteem. This was a balm for my soul when I most needed it. Try it. I wish you peace & happiness.
(p.s. I also recommend you read Happy This Year by Will Bowen.)

These changed my life in profound ways! But don’t love Audible’s delineation of the chapters.

I absolutely love Louise Hay and this “tape.” It was recommended to me by an acting business coach and at the time I did not think I had low self esteem and I prided myself on being a very self aware person. However, ALL of us can improve our self-talk. It is the number one key to our success in any and all areas of our lives. I couldn’t believe how differently I was acting without even consciously trying in just 3 weeks of listening to the subliminal messages on this recording! Louise explains that without the conscious mind getting in the way and negating the positive things you hear about yourself, your subconscious mind really absorbs these affirmations and you create new synapses in the brain which help you manifest what you want in your life. This is real science, and Einstein’s Law of Attraction is all about how your thoughts have energetic, measurable weight that draw similar energies and frequencies back into your life. After 3 weeks of these, I had SO much more confidence. People were treating me with more respect because I was exuding that I was worthy of this. And the next time my verbally abusive boyfriend of 10 years treated me in a way I had asserted so many times was unacceptable but kept forgiving him for, a calm cane over me and in that instant I decided I did not want to live in that environment anymore and decided to leave him; something I had always been unable to do because we were co-dependent on each other and I was afraid of being alone. But now I was excited to be single, I had no fear! Within 3 months of these affirmations and this choice, I booked a lead in an Off-Broadway show, was hired by an audiobook company to do voice work, got an agent, booked a lead in a Disney cartoon, and manifested my dream apartment without even apartment hunting at all that I could easily afford that is enormous in my ideal neighborhood and allowed me to keep my beloved dog with me. After I discovered Louise Hay’s Self Esteem Affirmations I also listened to her book You Can Heal Your Life and I had been doing a daily affirmation for a month about my dream apartment. And it literally fell into my lap out of nowhere! She is a miracle worker. And she would be the first to say that she is not a healer, that she gives US the tools to heal ourselves. She is so genuine, humble, and full of love and you hear all of this in her very natural, authentic performance. Her voice is so soothing. And I am picky about audiobook performances since I do them myself. I have read The Power is Within You and have some of her live lectures as well. These affirmations were the start for me and set my life on an entirely new path. I did listen to them every day for a month as she suggests, and often twice a day. The music is a bit dated but after about a week they made me feel so good that I associated the music with this feeling and grew to love it. Give it a chance for a week. They changed my life. The next man that I opened my heart to is the most nurturing, compassionate, emotionally-intelligent, kind, respectful man any woman could dream to manifest and we have been together for 3 years. Louise is an angel- literally now, as she has passed on from this realm a year ago. If this tape peaked your interest at all, TRUST your instinct, take a leap of faith and give them a try. I have recommended them to several other dear friends who have had great success and one even went off anti-depressants that she’d been on since childhood and is in the best place emotionally she’s ever been in her life and has remained off the drugs for 3 years. Even if anger or sadness comes up at first as you listen, push through it; this is not uncommon as you clear away old habits and thoughts that aren’t serving you. My friend who went off the meds had a lot of anger the first week of listening (before changing her med situation so it wasn’t due to that) but kept at it and then felt such peace and euphoria while listening as time went on. And she became so much more positive a person afterwards. I only felt bliss from the first listen. Everyone is different but commit to the 30 days. You don’t plant a seed and expect a fully blossomed flower the next day. It’s takes time to water that seed daily. But in time blossom it shall, as your life will!

My one complaint is Audible’s arrangement of her books. They used to have the first half hour where you hear the affirmations and the subliminal half hour where you only hear music separated into two chapters. Now it’s all one. So when you only want the second half (which is the more important half that she recommends you do daily for 30 days that sometimes I would just want to skip to without the first half like if I wanted to see what thoughts of mine came up) you have to fast forward to a half hour in. I also HATE the way Audible arranged her books like You Can Heal Your Life, the one that out her on the map. Their chapters do not at ALL correspond with her chapters. So so annoying. In You Can Heal Your Life, the Audible app has it broken into 5 “chapters.” It just breaks her book into 5 arbitrary chunks and then calls them Chapter 1, 2, 3 etc. But she actually has 16 chapters that she numbered and named based on the topic that the app isn’t honoring as such (they don’t include the names of her chapters). I don’t get why they don’t just make each one of the chapters she numbered and entitled into a separate chapter in the app. Makes it a lot harder to find the one you want to refer back to. So dumb. I find this is the case with a lot of self help books on audible. They should just have their “Chapters” section match whatever the author chose to be the different chapters. It should look just like the author’s table of contents.

But, that said, if audible is your preferred listening platform, it’s not a big enough issue to deter you from trying these affirmations and her other books (just bookmark the ones you’ll want to be able to easily refer to later with a note). Every day I feel blessed that I did!

These affirmations are PERFECT!

Simply WONDERFUL... Every affirmations is very thoughtful and just what one needs to acquire great confidence and esteem ...I also love the music it is very calming!

love her

music at the end but it's nice music. Louise hay is so comforting and I love it
