4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things. Pillow talk can be a little tricky. So here is some advice on what to say in bed.
With your head on the pillow and your eyes closed, focus intently on the moment and repeat uplifting words to yourself. Choose positive, inspiring phrases that describe qualities and conditions that you would like to have in your life. Make the statements present tense and first person -- "I am . . ." There is no need to say the words out loud. You can just repeat them in your mind.
With much intensity and enthusiasm, make 20 silent repetitions of each phrase before you fall asleep and do 20 more after you wake up, before you get out of bed. An effective way to keep track of the number of your repetitions is to use your fingers.
This kind of pillow talk is very powerful. Psychologists call it affirmations. As you repeat the uplifting statements to yourself, night after night and morning after morning, you begin to influence your subconscious to accept them as truth. Once your subconscious begins to believe your pillow talk statements, you will begin to experience them as reality in your daily life.
To help you choose some pillow talk statements of your own, here are some of mine. I have repeated these affirmations tens of thousands of times and have discovered that repeating them greatly improves my life.
"I always approach people on the telephone and in person, with complete inner peace and total confidence; I am always confident!"
"I like myself!"
"Day by day, in every way, by the grace of God, I'm becoming better and better!"
"I am peaceful, content, thankful, healthy, and extremely happy!"
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!"
And an affirmation, which is also a prayer: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me a sinner!"
