The 7 Portals to a Peaceful Mind presents a series of affirmations that I have worked with for over thirty years. During that time I have found them to be powerful self-healing tools that work on both the conscious and subconscious minds. They challenge us to forgive aspects of ourselves and our world and in so doing, allow us to move past the hindrances that block so much of our lives. I offer this book, in memory of my spirit sister and dear friend Geoli (Granny G.) for you to use every day, in times of stress or simple reflection. Wherever G. is now I know she blesses your holiness as I do and together we hope you find these affirmations as powerfully healing and transforming as we have found them to be! Let me remember I am one with God, at one with all my brothers and sisters and my Self, in everlasting holiness and peace. From A Course in Miracles Lesson 124
