Editorial;
If you have written as asking the following questions and many, many more. Just to address a few of them,
I would comment as follows.
Answering your Inner Questions ... Anne Marie Evers
Are you asking yourself ...
Why am I here?
Answer -- I believe there are two parts to this answer.
(a) We are here to evolve, grow, learn at our own individual pace and to become the very best we can, and
(b) When we have accomplished that, we then help others who are interested to then do the same.
What is life all about?
Answer:
It is a wonderful learning experience. It is a place where we attend School House Earth. I do agree some of the lessons are
quite difficult to master. Some of the questions about some difficult lessons are:
Why do we have to suffer the loss of the presence of a loved one via death?
Answer:
There are some teachings, and I do agree, that we create out lives by our thoughts, actions and decisions. While I do believe
and embrace that philosophy, I wonder why we would deliberately create the pain of losing a loved one. I feel with the recent
death of my second husband, Roy that when I married him, I took on or became involved with his baggage, beliefs, desire and
choices, as he did with mine. In this way, I did (at that moment of deciding to marry him) share his life, including his time to exit Planet Earth. So in
a way I did create my own reality didn’t I?
d) Why do we have to struggle to have enough money to pay our bills and live?
Answer:
As for the money question, I went back to my childhood as a very poor preacher's daughter where there was a severe lack of
money at the time. The menu of the day was a huge dandelion salad, followed by dandelion soup and dandelion greens. It was
a bitter lesson to learn in more ways than one. I grew up thinking money was the root of all evil. It was just a few years ago that
I discovered that the quote in the Bible said ‘The Love of money was the root of all evil,” not money is the root of all evil!
What a revelation!
I learned to appreciate money as a means of exchange in God's Mind and started to bless and thank it, even writing thank you
three times on my bills when I mailed them. Money started to flow into my life and I embraced it wholly.
Next month we will answer more of your burning questions.

Up Coming Events
& Announcements:
Intuition and Reflections
Janice is now taking reservations for the summer class.
This class will begin on the last Monday of June.
On Monday nights 7-9pm in North Vancouver.
The class is about learning to trust your intuition more and to
understand your life more through the use of reflections. Trusting
our intuition assists us in our day to day lives in making
decisions. It helps us to know when we are going in the right
direction for ourselves. I have been spending more time this last
class in helping to understand one's reflections. I find that this
is a very good way to help my students make the changes they want
to in their lives. If you want less stress in your life and
more joy, then this is the class for you.
Janice believes learning should be fun, so prepare to laugh.
If you want to have more joy, call Janice at (604) 986-0259.
Don't be disappointed, call now as the class is filling rapidly.

Letters
to the Publisher:
Publisher,
Anne Marie Evers www.netadssell.com/affirmations
Telephone: (604) 988-9907
Dear Anne Marie
I wonder if you can help. My mother Lucia does not want to come to my wedding because she does not like my future mother
in law, Laura. What can I do? I just feel that my mother is being very unreasonable. She has only met Laura once and that was
just to say a brief hello. What would you suggest I do It is enough stress dealing with usual wedding preparations without this added stress. Please
help. My future is hanging in the balance, at least that is how I feel at the moment.
Roberta
Dear Roberta,
It is rather difficult to understand your mother’s point of view, but perhaps Lucia reminds her of a person from her past that she
dislikes or has hurt her. I know you have tried speaking with her and reasoning so now go to the next step.
Write an Angel Letter “To the angel of my mother, Lucia
I love you, I bless you and I thank you for being reasonable and accepting our invitation to
our wedding. I thank you for respecting Tim and his family as they respect you and our family. We have a wonderful, happy
wedding to the good of all parties concerned. Love from the angel of your daughter. Roberta. Thank you, thank you, thank
you.”
Comment: This way, Roberta you are speaking from your angel (Higher Self) to your mother’s angel, (Higher Self) and there is
no negativity present.
Please let me know how it goes and Congratulations!! Have a Blessed Wonderful Wedding!! Love Anne Marie
Dear Anne Marie,
I have a problem with keeping money. I just hate money as I always have a lack of it. I am a hard working single man and I
cannot save a penny. Do you have any suggestions from your inner wisdom that could help me? Randy
Dear Randy:
Yes, Yes, I do. First of all please do not say that you hate money. When you do, it takes on wings and flies away from you.
Now it is time to appreciate money. Please read my comments in the Editorial about my experience with money.
Money is an exchange in God’s Mind. At times, if you desire a material object, why not bypass the money and go directly to
doing an affirmation for what it is you desire.
Write thank you on your bills when you are paying them. Take your wallet out and money and sit and bless them and ask them
to multiply. Get the money consciousness. Do an affirmation and put colorful pictures of money, etc. all around it.
The Grand daddy of Affirmations to attract and keep money in your life is to do the following
Write Big Money to Me Now at the top of a page. Then abbreviate it (b$tmn). Scribble out this abbreviation 77 times every
day. It is important that while you are scribbling out b$tmn that you say it as this gives it the intent. One lady pretended that her
body was covered with honey when she did this affirmation so that the money she had affirmed (ordered up) would stick to her
and not fly away. Good luck and Happy Money Prospecting! Love Anne Marie

A
Very Special Meeting!
Anne Marie Evers, Affirmations Coach
I had the pleasure of meeting James a few months ago when he called me and asked if he could meet with me. I was very
impressed by this nice looking well-dressed young man. He has a kind, loving aura energy field around him. He loves music and
has been involved in music since he was eighteen.
He has a band called ‘ReBeat Generation’ (an after shock of the counter culture). They are currently doing a musical tribute to
the Blues and Boogie/Woogie music, which presents the Reedlemania ReView. This is an old time musical tribute to Jimmy
Reed, Slim Harpo, Chuck Berry and many more of the old school bunch.
After one and one half years of non-drinking James had to leave the place where he was living. My book Affirmations Your
Passport to Happiness was in his friend’s home and she gave it to him, as he was interested in it. He doesn’t know what he
would have done without the book. At our meeting he told me that my book had helped him and actually saved him from a life of negativity and any desire to go
back to drinking. It had given him the tools for the life he desired. He said that I was one of the people that he wanted to thank.
He used to drink quite a bit and although he says he did enjoy those drinking days, he never wants to go to back to that life.
He discovered that drinking did not help him move forward and it interfered with his life. He said he drank to help him forget
and also because he did not love himself and felt that no one else really loved him. Now that he has been working with
affirmations it has shown him that there is another side to life that is enjoyable without alcohol.
He was reading in my book when he was homeless and he told me that he would go to the back of the book and read, say,
repeat and memorize the Short Form Affirmations. James discovered that he was not always faithful in doing his affirmations daily as
things came up. To solve the problem he created his own tape (mixing affirmations with music), which will be the basis of
turning my book, Affirmations Your Passport to Happiness into many CDs for children battered women, single parents,
couples, etc.
“This worked wonders and really helped me in my personal, positive, self-growth as it was myself, talking to myself,” he said. I played the tape over and over. He also included other tracks saying positive talk with a mix of music.
The words sunk deep into his subconscious mind and helped him find out who he
was and most importantly to forgive self and others. He made sure his energy and
thoughts were not wasted on negativity. After a while the affirmations on the mixed tape became a part of his reality and
could not be taken from him. They had taken on their own life form. His body had
set up an automated response system, which he had created and now all he needs to
do is think positive thoughts and put himself in a thankful, peaceful state. His body
is now working for him, not against him. "This, he says, “Is what I want to share
with others." He says, “What you want is waiting for you to call it in. Then remember to say your thank you's. Maybe everything we want is not good for us and I now know that is why we always say to the good of all. “We always need something and what we need is what we ask for.”
He took the Short Form Affirmations and created music tape with positive words
and upbeat music. He used these tapes in the morning and in the evening and
sometimes in the middle of the night. Whenever he needed energy he would put the
tape on and shut himself down. It worked wonders! He says he was always careful to add the safety clause to the good of all parties
concerned and maintain an attitude of gratitude.
Miracles began happening in his life!! At the time he was affirming for a place to live, employment, jewelry and he had added to the list
musical instruments. James met a new friend a couple of months before, so when it looked like James was going to be living on the street, the friend said, “Well you can stay in Jewelry Shop until you find a place.” James had all his clothing and belongings in boxes and was sleeping under the desk until he got a Futon. When he thinks about it now, it was like a home of his choice. The friend was into music and they played instruments and sang together into the night, many friends dropped by and James made many new friends.
The jeweler friend, without knowing that James had been affirming for jewelry, made him a lovely ring with hands holding a harmonica. James kind of chuckled when he remembered back to being homeless and affirming for jewelry. One of the affirmations I have in my book Affirmations Your Passport to Happiness is for Jewelry. He thought to himself, “Anne Marie says I can affirm (order up) jewelry so I did!” James says he never wears jewelry but for some reason he affirmed for a ring. He ended up with a beautiful ring and gorgeous silver pendant with a music note on it. Both pieces of
jewelry did not cost James one penny! Just an affirmation!
One day James was told that he had to leave the jewelry shop due to City regulations and he walked outside and looked up and there was his friend in a van. He jumped into the van and they started talking. His friend asked him what he was doing and offered him a job opening up and managing a new Vintage Clothing Store.
His affirmation then manifested and he received new clothes and so this, too, was the home of his choice at this time. He says
he is quite particular about the type of clothes he wears and this special kind was exactly what he liked.
This store was located at Cambie & Hastings Street, Vancouver, B. C. in an area where there are hard-core drugs.
He put it out again to the Universe in an affirmation (Order to the Universe) that he needed a place to live. A wonderful
87-year-old man named Richard and his daughter; Marcia picked him up from the street and offered him a place to live in their
home in the Kits area. No more living out of boxes, he now has his own room, which he has fixed up to suit his own taste!
He has moved his recording unit into his room and is making tapes using the Short Form
Affirmations from my book to
reprogram his brain. He is turning negativity into positivity.
Richard is an incredible man full of energy and caring and is now 89
going on 100 years of age. James tells me that Richard has a wonderful ministry of helping people in need. Richard and James
recorded a CD call ReBeat Generation Number 1 with Richard, ‘Daddy Babb,’ and the Mount Pleasants, (kids from James’s
old Day Care). This CD has been played on Rock 101, Sunday Blues and was Number 3 on the Internet Music Charts for
Children. Check it out http://rebeatgeneration.iuma.com
James now has a great home with two caring people.
James does not drive and during the transit strike he received a free, high quality, racing bike. He wanted a computer but he knew a computer was expensive so he decided to change the wording in his affirmation to read ‘computer access.’ A few days later his friend called and asked him to house sit his house for a couple of weeks in North Vancouver. In this home were a computer and musical instruments, which he could use. Affirmation Success!
Now James had a two-week holiday in North Vancouver. In those two weeks James started putting his music on the Internet and making connections. While house sitting on the North Shore he discovered some of his acquaintances he met while playing music actually lived down the street so they got together for a coffee.
James told her jokingly that he did not know what he would do when he left the house and did not have the computer. She said, “Seriously, James we are getting a new computer and wondered if you would like our old one?”
James was overjoyed and said his thank you's, were flying out of his mouth. He had arranged for a friend to go with him to pick it up from North Vancouver to Kits and that did not work. So the woman was so kind and she said she would drive the computer to his home in Kits from North Vancouver the next day if he was going to be home. Here was another affirmation manifested and delivered right to his door. Affirmation success
again!
He also told me that his friends have been very generous to him as well giving him cash when he was short.
Now lets recap what James has manifested –
· A place to live and a job
· Ring and pendulum
· Transportation (Racing Bike)
· 2 week vacation In North Van
· Another place to live, clothes of his choice and musical instruments
· Computer access
· Computer
· Another home in Kits
· Money when he needs it
James did day care for nine years after being away from it for three years, he did not think he would ever return to day care, but just recently an old friend offered him a position in a Day Care Facility in September. It looks like he is going to get the position where he can create a music program with the kids.
He said, “Anne Marie now that I have The Magic Wand or Trigger Tool (the faithful use of Affirmations) to make my dreams come true, I want to give back to the Universe and help others.
When James met me he told he had received so much help from the information in my book, other people and the Universe that it was now time for him to give back. He asked if he could use some of my affirmations and put them to music in a CD. Of
course I said that is a wonderful idea.
James is presently taking a course in ‘Starting Your Own Small Business,’ and is excited about opening up his own business where he can make musical CDs, create Videos teaching people how to enjoy life, while doing positive affirmations and share his talent with people worldwide. This will be a joint venture with James and myself. Using his talent with music and using certain music old time hypnotic rhythm, He is currently designing music with lyrics that are not silly, but positive material that makes people think on a deeper level. Combining music technology, rhythm and affirmations he plans to write RapFirmations (small CDs) for children.
RapFirmations is in the works and will soon be on the market!
He has designed what he refers to as RapFirmations. His idea is to combine the Children’s CD with a coloring book, with special markers that change colors. The kids will probably, at first, be more interested in the special markers, but the positive message from your book will come through. Then James is planning on making a video with kids instructing kids.
Such as “Come on Sally and Joey, lets say affirmations together.” This would be a great tool to use in the schools, a type of positive self-talk aka affirmations. It will set the kids up for success every day. We all have the kid in us and we all come from the same place. CDs for Baby Boomers – Psychedelic Affirmations They can relate to this type of music because they grew up with it. It will combine the music they know and like with positive, uplifting affirmations. Affirmations helped him find out who he is and best of all was the teaching on Forgiveness.
He says affirmation have given him a clear insight, kept him on the right track, proved to him the power of self-talk and positivity. What you say is what you are. It helped him channel every emotion. He was able to track his thoughts and then change them where needed. When a negative thought comes to him he says, "Cancel, cancel, that is not true." Then he immediately says something positive about himself.
He says he has three affirmations posted in his room and the biggest one for him is the Forgiveness Affirmation as that is where it all began. When he did the forgiveness exercises, he started to feel forgiven. He said it and he believes it! The affirmation process is helping him to become the best human he can be.
James says he is aware that we can (and he certainly has proved it) have anything we want as long as it is to everyone’s good and there is a 50% believable energy around that desire. It is already there in your consciousness.
“All you need do is ask,” he says. He also adds that he knows everything is not going to come, but the stuff that you should have does come to you!
He said, “Anne Marie, I took a couple of years to contact you because I wanted to show you how far I had come. I know our meeting was governed by Divine Timing as I had to have a clear image in my mind how to create the RapFirmations. It would have been too early as the timing was not right. I wanted to see what I was creating and experience first hand how it worked for me. I used myself as a guinea pig. So now after two years, I really KNOW that it has and is working and now I can come to you and say, "Anne Marie lets make your Affirmations Book into CDs with music!!" I am totally convinced they work! (… I certainly have the proof!)
Recently James said he was waiting a light and noticed a woman standing beside him. She asked him for a light. She appeared scared, confused, needed a shower and was hungry. He said he took the $2.00 he had from his pocket and bought he a slice of pizza and some bottled water. It was interesting how that light seemed to be delayed making time for them to have a little conversation. They continued it when they crossed the street. He had my Affirmations book with him and talked to her about affirmations and how they had worked in his life. He showed her parts of the book, and told her some of the things he had manifested and she said, "Good for you." She started preaching religion to him and he said, "Oh, I totally agree with you and Jesus Christ would just love this book! It is all about forgiveness, loving self, being kind and helping others.”
He said, “If a person really loves themselves, they won’t want to hurt others.” He also told her that all she really needs to accomplish what she wants in her life was to just ask and then believe.
He ran into her again in front of his friend's house and she started asking him more about affirmations. He again pointed out some pages in the book that he had used. He said I thought about it and I did not just give the book to her right away. We talked for about one half an hour and then I felt as if I should give the book to her, which I did.
When James told me the story he said, “I hope that was okay .It was my copy of the book that you signed for me.” I said, "That is great James, you did the right thing
just what the book teaches helping others in need. I will sign another one for you. Right on cue, one of my Distributing Companies in the US went out of business and returned about 80 copies of my previous 4th copy - Affirmations Book.
I gave James some of these copies to give to people in need and anyone that he meets on the street that is interested in bettering their lives. I have named him my CEO of Musical Healing/Affirmations. He is doing loving, caring work and I am so proud of him, the wonderful things he accomplishing and especially his ministry of helping others!
Way to go James!

A Time of Great Change
Much is happening energetically in the world at the moment.
There is a great opportunity for change, it is up to you which
path you choose, do you want your change to be positive or
negative. Many people have chosen negative at the moment. It is up
to you to believe positive is possible no matter what you see
happening. You will create whatever you believe. The difficult
part is to believe something positive when what you see is
negative. The trick is focus, what do you wish to focus on.
Affirmations are a great way to focus on the positive. Do not
become stuck in other peoples muck. Take time each day to focus on
your choices and be conscious about what those choices are. It has
never been a more important time to take time for yourself each
day and to connect with your inner self and really get clear on
what your choices are.
It is often difficult in our hectic world to find time for
yourself, you may have to put it in your day-timer and make
yourself the most important person in your life. Now is the time
to be conscious more than ever before. We can no longer get by
with thinking our lives are just happening to us. We need to
be clear on what we are believing and where we want to go from
here.
Make time to connect with yourself
Be clear on what your beliefs are
Affirm or focus on what you want to create
Treat yourself like the special human being that you are.
By doing these four simple steps, you will move much easier
through this time of transition and change.

Reflections:
Janice Smith
Hi Janice
I am always stressed with way too much to do. People have such
high expectations of me. They are constantly asking me to help
with this, or help with that. I am out of steam and can't take it
anymore. If one more person asks me to do anything, I will
collapse. Freda
Hi Freda
You are trying to show yourself that your expectations of yourself
are too high. Somewhere along the way, you believed that you had
to do it all. You don't have to, let yourself relax a little,
learn to say no. The world will not fall apart if you don't help
out. People will still love you and you will still have friends.
Make yourself the most important person in your life. Then you can
give from a place of power instead of an empty well.Good Luck and take care of yourself.
Hugs
