When disaster hit and our team was split up, scattered through the endless cold tunnels, I somehow survived. Now I'm lost, and alone, and scared, and there's something horrible in here. Lucky me.

Positive affirmations and mantras are the key to a steady and upgoing spiritual life.

The positive affirmations can be used by any person, no matter if he is spiritual or not. They work by rewiring our brains with the positive message that they hold. Mantras, on the other hand, are short phrases that can be repeated in our minds, so we can clean our psyche of misconceptions and behavioral patterns that keep us stuck in our lives.
