Mirror Work: 21 Days to Heal Your Life

I urge you to keep a journal as you do your mirror work. Jot down your thoughts and feelings so you can see how you are progressing.

like it to be, putting in all the details. Know that you deserve it.

Deserving has nothing to do with being good. It is our unwillingness to receive the good in life that gets in the way. Allow yourself to accept the good, whether you think you deserve it or not.

Replace the word should with the word could. Could lets you know that you have a choice, and choice is freedom.

As you learn to do mirror work, you will become much more aware of the words you say and the things you do. You will learn to take care of yourself on a deeper level than you have done before.

Let’s affirm: I am beautiful. I am amazing. I am easy to love.

Let’s remove the word should from our vocabulary forever. Should is a word that makes prisoners of us. Every time we use should, we are making ourselves wrong or someone else wrong. We are, in effect, saying: not good enough.

One small change in your thinking can lead to huge changes in your life.

What do you want that you are not getting? When you were growing up, what were the rules about deserving? Did you always have to earn in order to deserve? Were things taken away from you when you did something wrong? Do you feel that you deserve to live? To have joy? If not, why not?
