Day 0 part deux. Do affirmations and the like have an effect?

I saw a post on Instagram (yes one of the sites I am weaning myself from – but this was something I saved some time ago to come back to) and it spoke of affirmations / abundance spells. Now I don’t need to go into what I believe when it comes to magic, but I think all types of “magic” is essentially wiring you for pattern recognition. You speak an intention, which is a subtle way of programming your subconscious to seek that outcome.

In any event the post spoke as follows.

“before you begin: close your eyes. Breathe into your body until you feel yourself soften. Let the edges of you dissolve. Become space. Become breath. Become presence. Feel the hum of your energy — alive, awake, infinite.
let your throat glow — a portal of power, a bridge to becoming.

Then, when you are ready: speak these words. OUT LOUD. Your voice is the portal. Your presence is the key.

✦ THE ULTIMATE ABUNDANCE SPELL ✦
I let go of my belief that success is suffering.
I erase every limit I ever absorbed.
I dissolve the old codes of survival.
I re-code myself for infinite receiving.

I know who I am.
I know what I hold.
I know what I’m here to become.

I move like money is my mirror.
I breathe like wealth is my witness.
I speak like success is my shadow.

I don’t chase.
I don’t cling.
I don’t crawl.

I call.
I claim.
I command.

I am not waiting.
I am not wishing.
I am already walking in it.

I am the source and the supply.
I am the river and the rain.
I am the answered prayer.

It is already mine.
It is already done.
It is already here.

→ repeat 3x. out loud.
→ then seal it with:
by the power of three, a perfect trinity.
it is done.
it is done.
it is done.”

So yeah, it sounds a little bit woowoo. But what’s the harm in spending a few minutes a day going through this ritual, to see what happens?
