What follows is an affirmation statement from Michael which I have permission to post
here on the blog.  Thoughts are the primary consideration on the journey down the road to recovery.

Robert Rodgers PhD
Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease

I, Michael, do not have Parkinson’s or the symptoms of Parkinson’s.

I, Michael, have never had Parkinson’s or the symptoms of Parkinson’s.

To those of you who have been praying or even just thinking/wanting/wishing
that I be healed of Parkinson’s or the symptoms of Parkinson’s…
please stop now.

Instead…

please, in any way, shape, or form,
support my commitment to evolve beyond
any conscious or unconscious want, desire, or need
for any limitation whatsoever in this body-mind.

When you do this…
instead of asking that I be healed…
please picture me perfectly healthy, happy, whole and complete now.

Be honest with yourself. No one is listening to your thoughts right now.

What are your true attitudes about recovery from Parkinson’s disease? Do you believe that while a few people have succeeded in reversing their symptoms – the chances you can reverse your symptoms are about as good as winning the lottery? Or, do you believe recovery is possible, but find yourself doubting the miracle of recovery all the time?

We all have doubts. There are so many people who tell lies these days it is really difficult to know who you can trust.  I have an idea for you to carry around in your hip pocket. Why not make a commitment to trust yourself?

I invite you to make a resolution beginning today.How? It is simple.

1. Print this post today.  
2. Slip it into your pocket (where ever that might happen to be in the moment).
3. Take the ten resolutions below out of your pocket everyday.
4. Read them out loud to yourself.
5. Slip them back into your pocket to be retrieved again tomorrow.

As your belief in the statements below strengthens, prospects for recovery will also strengthen. The two go hand in hand.
