I am harmless to others and others are harmless to me. I feel safe with the young and with the old.

I feel safe with those who are like me and those who are different from me.

I feel safe with animals, I feel relaxed with animals, I live in harmony with all animals.

The weather is my friend. I am in harmony with all of life—the sun, the moon, the winds and the rain and the earth and the movement of the earth. I am at peace with the elements. I am always comfortable in any weather. My body adjusts to the outer temperature. I am at ease.

I have also learned to be tranquil. In the midst of chaos, I can be tranquil. Tranquility is inner peace.

I practice being peaceful when others are agitated. I do not have to buy into people’s agitation.

For me, peace of mind and loving myself is the most important state I can experience.

By changing my thoughts, I now create peace in my world.

Peace replaces fear, terror is replaced by tranquility, scariness becomes serenity, uncertainty becomes confidence.

Love replaces hate. Repression makes for freedom. I bless all people with love, I surround the planet with love.Excerpted with permission from the upcoming release Heal Your Mind: Your Prescription for Wholeness, Through Medicine, Affirmations, and Intuition (2016) by Mona Lisa Shultz, M.D., Ph.D. & Louise Hay

I know we are safe. All is well, and so it is.
