Do Affirmations Work?
Law of Attraction Students – Is This You?
Have you been working hard with your affirmations and visualizations, yet you have very little to show for it?
Have you fallen into the trap of thinking that you need to take a $1000 seminar or sign up for an expensive weekend retreat with a guru to get your affirmations working?
Well, don’t give up yet! And don’t sign up for that pricy course, either. Because I’ve got great news for you!
How would you like to learn the “juicy” stuff about affirmations and the law of attraction?
I’m talking about the controversial facts, tidbits and real life "tech tips” that spiritual teachers only discuss among themselves.
They don’t usually share this stuff with their students.
Welcome to my new book:
 |
Why Most Affirmations Fail
and
The Four Building Blocks of Successful Affirmations
by
Jennifer Shepherd, The Lipstick Mystic® |
Here’s a small sampling of the juicy stuff I reveal in this book:
Debunking Those Tired Myths About Affirmations:
Learn why you don’t have to be 100% positive about your affirmations for them to work. p. 33
Discover how affirming a specific amount of money might actually hurt you. Learn an easy workaround and fix those common problems with cash flow. p. 36
Find out why bad things happen to good people. Hint: It’s not because they are “negative” or “unenlightened.” In fact, they may be a lot more enlightened than you! p. 55
When is a romantic soulmate the LAST thing you should do affirmations for? Learn the right time and the wrong time to attract true love. p. 40
Explore why writing your affirmations down 100 times a day might actually hurt you. Hint: If doing your affirmations makes you feel like you’re back in school being punished by your teacher, that’s a major sign you’re on the wrong track! p. 34 |
 Time Out for a Mini Rant
I’ll be honest. It peeves me no end that my fellow members of the metaphysical community tend to withhold critical information from their students when they are conducting a class because they are afraid of appearing too “human” or too “real.”
I know this is a serious problem among self-help gurus because I’ve hung out with my fellow teachers at the coffee machine during workshop breaks and heard them talk about the cool stuff they were withholding from their class material. Most of them didn’t want to open up about their personal manifestation experiences, because if they talked about how they manifested love after a divorce or manifested wealth after suffering bankruptcy, they’d have to admit that they were just as flawed and imperfect as everybody else.
It’s hard to confess that you once committed adultery or had to file for bankruptcy when you’re supposed to be a perfect “guru” without any problems!
News Flash – We’re All Human! We’re All Real!
And if teachers shared more of the gritty details about how things work and stopped embellishing the “facts” to make them sound “pretty,” students would be learning the REAL stuff that can truly help them.
Well, no more secrets. And no more overpriced and impractical information, either.
In this book, I’ll be bursting your bubble about what you probably think you SHOULD be doing with your affirmations. Some of this stuff is going to get the gurus mad at me, but I don’t care!
Little Known Secrets the Gurus Aren’t Telling You
Learn the step by step “spiritual tech” of tithing. Most teachers are teaching this wrong, if they’re teaching it at all! Discover the right and the wrong way to go about it. p. 44
What does an axe murderer sitting on Death Row have to teach us about giving? Hint: It has to do with your mother! p. 50
Why “wishing won’t make it so.” The key component to successful affirmations that most gurus conveniently forget to mention! p. 16
What’s a realistic time frame for your affirmations? Discover what nobody is telling you about timing and expectation. p. 52
Learn the times when you absolutely should not, under any circumstances, do affirmations. p. 31
What can an ancient Biblical passage teach us about receiving abundance? You won’t learn this at Sunday service! p. 42
When is it wrong to affirm getting back together with a former flame? Has anybody ever taught you this? Love relationships can be complicated, and if your affirmations about romance aren’t crystal clear, you can get into big trouble very fast. p. 19
What common mistake will sabotage your affirmations forever? If you haven’t been successful with affirmations yet, then this is probably the reason. Do this, and you can kiss success goodbye. p.31 |
Hold On - I Need a Reality Check!
Sounds good so far, I know. But you’re probably worried that this is yet another New Agey, airy-fairy, hippie dippy book about stuff that doesn’t work in the “real world,” right?
Wrong.
I may be a metaphysical chick, but you won’t see me running around with sparkles glued to my forehead. And I prefer to wear comfortable shoes so I can keep my feet planted firmly on the ground. If I’ve put something in this manual, it’s because the technique WORKS. Period.
Everything in this book is geared to sharpen your affirmations to a razor’s edge of clarity. This book is jam-packed with heavily road-tested tips that will boost your affirmations success and minimize chances of failure.
One colleague of mine who previewed this book told me that it’s a recipe book. He’s right, it is! Follow the recipes outlined here and you’ll find that it’s easy to create your own tasty “Affirmations Gumbo.”
Just add the ingredients that I recommend, avoid making nine common mistakes that will spoil your “brew,” and you’ll be amazed at how rapidly your affirmations will take root on the physical plane.
I’ve been sharing this information with individual students for years, and most of them have given up on asking me to write a manual about it because I just never seem to get around to it. But every day I still receive emails from readers around the world who are passionate about discovering the powers of the mind and the miracles of the heart. And rather than continue to respond to each email individually (I’m getting carpal tunnel from doing so much writing!) I’ve done a “brain dump” of all my best, most user-friendly and workable tips in this new book.
Sometimes, the Gurus Get It Seriously Wrong
If there’s one thing that has disappointed me about my fellow spirituality teachers over the years, it’s when they purposefully withhold information from their students just to entice them to attend another pricy workshop or hook them on expensive coaching sessions. You don’t need that stuff! If somebody gives you a complete guide with all the information you need, you shouldn’t have to supplement it with outside classes or counseling. (Those things can often help, but they are not necessary.)
That’s why I’ve distilled over twenty years of experience with manifestation and affirmations and a decade’s worth of full-time professional work as a spiritual counselor into one jam-packed manual that explains it all for you.
Some people have asked me why I chose to present this material in such an inexpensive way since other teachers are charging big bucks for much more basic information in their workshops and seminars.
Well, I’m spilling the beans because I don’t have a seminar business to run or a coaching practice to finance. I’ve never been very enthusiastic about the idea of the $1000 workshop (although I have held manifestation workshops costing hundreds of dollars.) I much prefer to create an inexpensive user’s manual that is accessible to everyone. It’s just more my style.
My goal is to give you the information you need TODAY that will make or break your affirmations. I believe this should be done simply, cheaply, and without fuss. That’s why I’ve chosen to deliver it to you in a digital format suitable for viewing from your desktop. You can also print out the pages on your printer, curl up in a comfy armchair, and enjoy a good read. Feel free to mark up the pages with notes or paste pages to your bulletin board as a reminder.
Heck, use some of the pages for target practice while you’re throwing darts. I don’t care! As long as you’re looking at the pages, I know you’ll receive some benefit. This information is pure gold, and until now, it’s never appeared in any format other than my private emails, counseling sessions, and workshops.
Why Should You Trust Me and Why Did I Write This Book, Anyway?
I know it’s a little late in this letter to introduce myself, but . . .
 Hello! I’m Jennifer Shepherd, the Lipstick Mystic®.
Some people know me from my syndicated astrology and spirituality columns that appear in newspapers throughout the US. My writing appears in papers like the Chicago Tribune’s Redeye, Access Atlanta, and on the McClatchy newswire service. At last count, I had over 2 million readers. I’ve also been a monthly columnist for print magazines like Spa, Bally’s Total Fitness, and Boy Crazy.
I maintained a full-time spiritual counseling practice for about a decade and worked with over 10,000 clients, guiding them with affirmations, psychic development, and general self-improvement. I’ve appeared on TV shows like the Sci Fi Channel’s Sightings and the Fox Network’s Real Scary Stories. You may also have heard me on one of my numerous radio appearances on FM morning shows.
Along the way, I also taught workshops in manifestation and affirmations, encouraging students to tap into the power of the mind and the miraculous energies of the heart. And that’s where something really “sparked” for me. Suddenly, it wasn’t enough to try to solve people’s problems for them. I wanted to inspire others to tap into their OWN ability to manifest success. And that’s when my focus changed to writing, healing, and teaching.
These days, I maintain several spirituality websites and do a lot of healing work “under the radar.” And I enjoy amazing dialogue with fellow spiritual seekers from all over the world who continue to share their success stories, their failures, and their inspirations about how to make affirmations work. This has allowed me to pool together a lot of unique information.
This is controversial yet empowering stuff that isn’t appearing anywhere yet. I’m only just now beginning to release it here at my affirmations website and in this new book.
If you want to be on the cutting edge of affirmations and law of attraction work, and if you’d like to make use of road-tested techniques perfected by real, modern people (as opposed to reading the ancient writing of some swami from 3000 years ago who was out of touch with the practical concerns of today,) then I know you’ll love this book.
So to return to the question, “Do Affirmations Work?”
They certainly do, if you learn how to do them right!
Here Is What Other Self-Help Authors and Spirituality Websites Are Saying About Why Most Affirmations Fail:
"As I read your delightful eBook, I see it's grounded in common sense, with liberal dashes of zesty inspiration and lots of practical advice from someone who's ‘Been there, done that.’ Awesome!"
--- Cynthia Larson, author of Aura Advantage and publisher of the Reality Shifters website: http://www.realityshifters.com |
"One of the things I really like about this book is the ‘Get off your butt and do something to help make this happen’ advice. What was it that Ben Franklin said? Something like, ‘God helps those who help themselves.'”
--- Greg Mee, Publisher of the Gems4Friends website http://www.gems4friends.com |
“Jennifer Shepherd (the Lipstick Mystic®) has written a savvy manual that is easy to read, retain, and assimilate on the subject of affirmations. She explains why they work or misfire, and how to avoid experiencing the latter. I have to say that I have never been overly drawn by the subject of affirmations and don't deliberately seek out books on them -- until this one thankfully plopped gently into my lap!
“This is the book we have been waiting for. It had to be written by someone who really knows the power of affirmations and when, where and how to use them. Through their use, Jennifer has repeatedly created a life she enjoys and has helped countless others do the same. She writes with humor and with total understanding on the Law of Attraction, currently getting much attention in ‘The Secret.’ If you aren't fully living the life you want, you owe it to yourself to read, absorb the contents of, and practice the affirmations suggested in this eBook (or create your own.) My highest recommendation!"
--- Alijandra, energy healer, intuitive, and author of Healing with the Rainbow Rays and Cosmic Chakras http://www.colorhealing.com

“Whether you’ve been doing affirmations for what seems like forever, or you really don’t know what we’re talking about and you just found yourself here and thought you’d look around – this book is for you!
“One of the first techniques many of us learned on our spiritual journeys was the repetition of positively-focused phrases of what we wanted – aka ‘affirmations.’ But we soon found it’s not always as easy as it sounds.
“In ‘Why Most Affirmations Fail and the Four Building Blocks of Successful Affirmations.’ Jennifer outlines in straightforward, easy-to-follow steps just what you need to do -- and, sometimes more importantly, what you should not do -- in creating and manifesting what you want. I loved the personal anecdotes that make this book come alive, and I know she’s experienced many of the same hurdles and obstacles that we all face in our quest to have what we want. I am confident, after reading this book, that she has empathy for our shortcomings and jubilation for our successes.
“I’ll let you in on a little secret – what Jennifer teaches in this wonderful book are things that will enhance your everyday life, whether you’re ‘officially affirming’ or just living a magnificent life!”
--- Linda Goodspeed Dodds, Life Coach, Law of Attraction teacher, and author of An Impossible Life http://www.animpossiblelife.com |
