Page 7 Replacing Old Patterns:
In order to permanently eliminate a condition, we must first work to dissolve the mental cause. But most often, since we don't know what the cause is, we find it difficult to know where to begin. So, if you're saying, "If I only knew what's causing this pain," I hope that this booklet will provide both a clue t find the causes and a helpful guide for building new thought patterns that will provide both a clue to find the causes and a helpful guide for building new thought patterns that will produce health in mind and body.
I've learned that for every condition in our lives, there's a need for it. Otherwise, we wouldn't have it. The symptom is only an outer effect. We must go within to dissolve the mental cause. This is why willpower and discipline don't work. They're only battling the outer effect. It's like cutting down the weed instead of getting the root out. So before you begin in the New Thought Pattern affirmations, work on the willingness to release the need for the cigarettes the headache, the excess weight, or whatever. When the need is gone, the outer effect must die. No plant can live if the root is cut away.
The mental thought patterns that cause the most dis-ease in the body are criticism, anger, resentment, and guilt. For instance, criticism indulged in long enough will often lead to dis-eases such as arthritis. Anger turns into things that boil, burn, and infect the body. Resentment long held festers and eats away at the self and ultimately can lead to tumors and cancer. Guilt always seek punishment and leads to pain. It's so much easier to release these negative thinking patterns from our minds when we're healthy than to try to dig them out when we're in a state of panic and under the threat of the surgeon's knife.~ Louise L. Hay
She has a list of mental equivalents that had been compiled from many years of study, her own work with clients and many of her lectures and workshops. It's helpful as a quick reference guide to the mental patterns behind the dis-ease in your body.....the list is way too long to put in this discussion but if you tell me the type of pain or problem you are having I can look it up in the book to tell you the healing affirmation you should be saying........
In love and light!~~Annmarie
