Positive Affirmation meditation

Lovely day at the Brundall Holistic Fair

I had a lovely time at the Brundall Holistic Fair, Vikki raised loads of money for charity. I parted company with some lovely jewellery and had a very interesting tarot reading.

I ran a workshop on using my meditation beads and all the ladies (including my own little Gothling) were very relaxed afterwards and I got some fabulous feedback on the beads. The 'Earthly Delights' set were particularly hard to put down.

We looked at the 5 pattern elemental sets and used a positive affirmation based on the 5 elements (earth, air, fire, water and spirit)  I chose a simple statement for each element to embody the strength of each element.

For Earth I chose I am/we are healthy.  Earth represents the body, family and the tangible.
For Air I chose I am/we are heard.  This speaks to the vocal aspect of air, it is also logic, thought and inspiration.
For Fire I chose I am/we are loved. Fire is all about passion, love, the heart and flame, and also electricity.
For Water I chose I am/we are calm.  Water represents the emotions and deep sweeping change.
To draw everything together I chose I am/we are divine, to remind us that there is a spark of divinity in all of us.

This is the meditation we did.....

'With your feet on the ground close your eyes and feel the weight of your body through your feet and through your bottom solid on your chair.  Remember, you are all divine and special.'

With your fingers on the first bead of your set, next to the pendant,
'We are healthy,' move your fingers to the next bead.
'We are heard,' move your fingers to the next bead.
'We are loved,' move your fingers to the next bead.
'We are calm,' move your fingers to the next bead.
'We are divine,' move your fingers to the next bead. Repeat this pattern 13 times

When you are completed with the full pattern complete the meditation
'Take a moment to own this affirmation, feel it within yourself.
Now feel the weight of your feet on the floor, hear the sounds around you, and when you are ready, open your eyes'

Meditations with prayer beads

Here is a really simple 'How to' to using a set of prayer beads in a simple spellworking or affirmation.

By the earth that is my body
and the air that is my voice.
By the fire that is my passion
and the water of my blood.


Let (my will be done)


So mote it be.

Using one of my 5 bead pattern prayer beads sit in a comfortable position holding the first bead above the pendant.

Focus your mind on your intent, for example 'Let peace fill my home.'

Say the first line of the meditation.

Move your fingers to the next bead and say the second line.

Continue round to the 5th bead and state your intent, ie 'Let peace fill my home' and see yourself filled with peace.  Start again on the next pattern with the first line of the meditation.

The necklaces have either 13 or 11 repeats of the pattern; the bracelets have 5 or 7 repeats.  Continue your meditation, focusing on your intention until your have touched every bead.

As you wear your necklace or bracelet you carry the power of your intention with you.  Each time you feel the  beads against your skin, or touch them, every time you see your beads you will be reminded of your goal and reaffirm your will.

Regular meditation can help you to focus your mind, ease stress and help relax you.

I'll post more meditations, tips and maybe even a video or two in the coming weeks.
