This is Take Back Your Mind, Life Question of the Week. I am Michael B. Beckwith, the host of Take Back your Mind.

And of course I like to remind people what Take Back the Mind means. We have a mind, just as we have a body.

And our mind and our body is in our field of awareness.

You are not your mind, you are pure awareness.

But the mind sometimes is hijacked by the virus of fear and worry and doubt.

And so we want to take that back.

We don't want the world of effects and circumstances to program our mind.

We want to be the ultimate programmer of our own mind, which is why you have good inner

self-talk, which is why you meditate, which why you practice affirmative prayer, which is why

you study material that's true and inspirational.

So you're not merely intellectualizing the spirit.

You're spiritualizing the intellect.

So that the mind itself has new laws of success, prosperity, health, well-being. So welcome to take back your mind. Every week we

take a question and I seek to answer it. This is the life question of this week. It's from

Yvette. She's from Florida.

She says, I seem to repeat unwanted patterns around relationships and money.

Growing up, I didn't see relationships that ever worked out.

Plus, there was never any money.

In addition, I was born into a cycle of verbal and other forms of abuse,

and now I keep repeating these same patterns in my adult relationships.

And while money does come into my life, it depletes quickly.
