Messages for the Soul

"How to read this book This book contains forty-nine Messages for the Soul and is divided into seven elements: which, in turn, contain seven messages and seven colors. Like any book, it can be read all at once, or alternatively, by message, at random, according to your choice, intuition, and ability to internalize. If you feel, you can even start from the end to the beginning, by color or by element. This approach is only possible because the messages are independent. These transformational messages can be used for personal growth and development or just as comfort on occasions when you feel more fragile or need a message for that specific situation or moment. You can open the book on any page or think of a number and look for the corresponding message. You can read a message for yourself, a friend, or even a stranger. Use the messages as a “mantra” The word mantra comes from the Sanskrit Man which means mind and Tra, which means control or protection. Mantra is thus a way of leading the mind. It is usually presented in a single syllable or poem, usually in Sanskrit or dead languages. Mantras originate from Hinduism, however, they are also used in other religions, as well as in multiple spiritual practices that have no connection with established religions. The mantra is presented as a ritual formula recited or chanted repeatedly in order to aid concentration. As for some scholars, the mantra can be any sound, syllable, word, phrase, or text, which has a specific power. I dare to use these messages as mantras in order to achieve a purpose. Educating, controlling, or guiding the mind through repetition in order to keep us focused on our goal. I have already tried it on myself and I can guarantee that it works for me and for many other people who follow this principle that we attract to us what our mind focuses on. In order to stay focused, you can also select a message that makes sense for your circumstance. Repeat it by murmuring, singing, or saying it out loud, like a mantra, often throughout the day, or for weeks until it integrates into your life entirely. Use the messages as a journal or an inner reflection record If you like to write and reflect, choose to read only one of these messages at a time. Write about it as often as you like. Realize and record everything about what you think, feel, agree, or disagree about that message. Include some examples of this situation in your life and how you overcame it or would like to have overcome it. Rewrite the sentence in order to adapt it to your personal situation and use it until it is completely and fully integrated. The sentence must always be in the present and affirmative. When you feel ready, move on to the next message and repeat the process. Use messages as enhancers for 21 days of transformation If you chose to take this 21-day journey of inner transformation, you will choose only 21 out of 49 Messages for the Soul. These can be selected by you according to what you think is most appropriate, or decide to trust your intuition and choose the messages at random. To select them you can write the numbers from 1 to 49 on small pieces of paper, put them in a bowl, and randomly remove just 21. After choosing them, make your registration in a notebook and assign each day the corresponding message in the order you have selected. Take a few minutes in the morning to rewrite the message of the day in your handwriting. Carry that message with you and read it several times, memorize it, notice how this message has an influence on you and what emotions it brings you. Throughout the day write down all the impressions and thoughts about your life and what you want to change or recreate. Write down events, difficulties, changes, resistance, or ideas that the message may be bringing or helping you to cope with. Use the messages as visualizations You can also choose to do the job with the visualizations that accompany each message. Read each one as often as you feel necessary and then close your eyes, take a deep breath, calm down and allow the visualization to develop and happen. Pay attention to how you feel before and after each visualization. Alternatively, you can record the visualization with your voice, in a paused way, with or without background music - as you prefer. Later, you can use the recording as a guided meditation that you can repeat as many times as you like. Choose your individual process and what makes sense to you. Dare to incorporate and integrate each of the selected messages.  Use the messages as an oracle or guidance This is a process for getting quick guidance on specific questions. Think about the situation or problem you would like to get an answer to. Use small papers numbered 1 to 49, or use the numbers from a bingo game, and mix them up while thinking about an open question, such as: What can I expect from my choice? What do I need to do or understand in this situation? What is the best step to help resolve my issue? When you feel, choose a number. Read the corresponding messages in the book. You can use one or more messages. I like to use two or three messages. The first is about the strengths, or what is in favor of the situation, the second is about the weaknesses or what is against or missing and the third is the next step to take."
