REFLECTION FOR TODAY

I have done myself a lot of harm, but I want to make amends to myself now. One of the best ways to do this is to continually speak well of myself. Why do I think I am entitled to run myself down, saying harsh things about myself such as, "I am not good, I cannot do it, I am so weak, nobody cares about me, etc."? Without dishonesty or conceit I can always speak positively and hopefully about myself. Today I want to be my own best friend.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

May I remember there are people who love and cherish me, and it hurts them, as it hurts me, when I say negative things about myself.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

I am not perfect, but in some ways I am great.

REFLECTION FOR TODAY

A garden does not grow in one day. As I learn to live the EA program, I will try to tend to the daily tasks of nurturing my own mental, physical, and spiritual growth. The exercise of a daily program will help my growth in two ways: regular practice will strengthen my self-discipline, while consistent attention to my needs will foster positive growth, just as scheduled watering, fertilizing, and pruning encourage healthy growth in a garden.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

Guide my steps toward my own mental, physical and spiritual health.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

Small steps repeated over and over in the course of time become a great journey.
