In the beginning was the word. The gift of being human is that we are the ultimate meaning makers. In every moment we have the opportunity to experience the greatest vision of ourselves in the proclamation of our words. Someone who labels money as a gift and a blessing gets to experience just that, printed paper as a gift and a blessing. Similarly, someone who labels money as the root of all evil, gets to have the experience of the printed paper as the root of all evil and will have a hard time creating much money because that would go against his or her own belief system.

Words not only have emotional impact, they have physical impact as well. People who use "common" phrases such as "pain in the neck" and "backbreaking work" have been shown to develop those physical symptoms! If a woman labels sex as dirty or vile, the likelihood of her achieving an orgasm is drastically reduced! This is because physiologically, those words create tension, and Masters and Johnson have done extensive research with the conclusion that orgasms are caused by contraction of the genital muscles that cannot happen when the muscles are clenched and not relaxed.

Certain word associations are empowering. Others un-empower. There are a myriad of proven tools to uncover our un-empowering associations and dissolve them, while integrating our desired associations into our cellular memory. One of the ways to begin this journey of consciously reclaiming the power of our word is by asking powerful questions. Ask yourself the questions, "how is this amazing?" as often as you remember today and begin to experience your whole world shift. In essence, you are adding the filter and label "amazing" to the external world, which then reflects the answer back to you in experience. Begin now! Ask yourself, how has this day been amazing? How is your life amazing? How is your family amazing? Stretch if you must, but come up with an answer! The answers are a gift to yourself, so gush, be expressive and passionate in your reply! Do this for a week and your life will transform...!
