The phrase "I AM" is connected to our root chakra and our subconscious mind. Think of these as your real self, both of these create your internal self-image and directly impact how you interpret the world and those around you. As children and young adults, we are constantly taking in external information that impacts who we become as adults. As a result, we develop a self-image, and beliefs about who we are. These experiences and beliefs can either help or hinder us as we move through life. Today let's talk about how you can change your life through the use of the phrase " I am..."
Just like a tree is planted in the dirt and to grow must establish roots, the sacral (root) chakra is where you must start. I AM is the overall energy of "being". "To be" is to emulate or sit in the energy of. For example, say you struggle with anxiety and feeling safe. The root cause of this feeling is that you have been accustomed to feeling uneasy or in danger. Your overall being is constantly thinking something is wrong or will go wrong. Worry and fear have taken over your mental and emotional states. To combat this root belief that you are in danger, you must reprogram your subconscious mind. Saying phrases like, "I am safe, I am protected, I am capable of working through difficult times" can help ease your anxiety. As someone who has dealt with random anxiety spurts, I have found that repeating "I am safe" over and over again has helped me soothe the internal stress I feel when my body goes into fight or flight mode.
Our subconscious mind is like our root chakra, it affects every aspect of our being and belief systems. "I AM" is the way to become a new person, to let go of past mental programs that no longer serve us, and to create a new personal reality that aligns with where we want to go and who we want to be. This is why I created the I Am Necklace. At their root, many people feel unworthy or unlovable. These feelings lead to social issues, a negative self-image, and of course, unstable romantic relationships. However, repeating to oneself, "I am light, I am love, I am life" is powerful and uplifting, it fills your soul with the energy of the Divine Source. To believe that you are a light in this world that gives and share loves with others is so empowering. It helps you realize you are not as powerless and alone as you think. That you are just as beautiful as the flowers, radiant as the sun, and as strong as the trees.
