While it's wonderful to be filled with confidence, we all doubt ourselves sometimes. We might have heard negative messages from our parents, teachers etc. which we internalized or are struggling with negative self talk. If you recognize that, it's time to affirm some confidence today.
I write my affirmations in different levels so you can see what resonates with you and what you want to work on. You might start with a lower level that resonates and then move your way up.

Dear people,
I've already written a blog about Ancestral Wisdom and how to receive those family blessings, but of course our family can also be a bane. So you might have already done the exercise of Family Patterns Examination or did the exercise to help heal Unhealthy Family Patterns, but let's speak more about ancestor work today. It's a topic dear to my heart, because it often brings great healing.
Why would you do ancestral work?
A lot of times people want to be viewed as individuals and especially if they have a strained relationship with their family or have no idea of their roots (adoption/sperm or egg donor) they feel this kind of work is worthless for them.
However, science is saying that our DNA does change depending on what our ancestors go through and what was an advantage for them, might be a drawback for us. So finding out what we have inherited and what we choose to do with our inheritance is a powerful healing tool to help us move forward.
Mistakes compound, so when we have fallen of the spiritual path, due to something happening to our ancestors, that often means there is deep healing available. Many generations telling you that "life isn't safe" or "money is worthless" will keep you from healthy beliefs. It often feels like you are swimming against the current if everybody in your family is reiterating those unhealthy messages.
Healing the problem where it first occurred is easier, because generations later, nobody knows why they act this way, it's just 'how it's done'. When you can zero in on the actual pain and heal that, you can free yourself from it, even if it wasn't your pain in the first place, but you have just been carrying the consequences of that pain.
Benefits for all
So if we can start to heal where the first problem occurred, the healing can move downstream to all descendants and make everything easier for everybody. It's a delight to not only see your own life improve but that of your whole family. Sometimes that healing goes quickly and you can see results rapidly, but sometimes it takes a while to notice the effects.
So if you are healing assertiveness, you might notice family members become more assertive. If you work on healing physical hereditary diseases, family members might not get them at all or you notice a reduction in severity. If you heal issues surrounding love, money etc. you will see improvements there as well.
While it's nice to be the pioneer in creating a better life for yourself and inspiring others, it's equally fulfilling to see how your family moves as a group. The person who does the work usually gets the fastest boost, but not always.
So I highly recommend you do one of the exercises I've written about Ancestor Work / Healing your family history and see what miracles that healing brings you.
