From my understanding, since I have a meditation practice already in place, I should be incorporating these affirmations into it. What my experience so far, though, is that once having gone through this processing of emotions and memories, the "fix" is in place. So today at work, for example, I'm walking down the halls with my head up instead of looking at my chipped nailpolish on my toes. Instead of my usual tunnel vision, that "I just have to get through this day without getting fired" feeling, I'm taking in my environment and know that I'm doing my possible best. The peace that I'm developing is carrying over quite naturally into the day-to-day activities.
I am trying too to be much more aware of the connectivity of my environment; people, animals, places - the many forms of energy that unite us if we are able to observe and appreciate it. That isn't a spiritual leap for me, because I have this nebulous belief already that everything around us is part of a whole; that there is giving and taking of energy at all times. I am really bad at explaining this stuff, but I "get" it.
