How To Use The ACIM Workbook
The Course in Miracles Workbook is designed as a practical guide to implementing the teachings of the course. The point of these exercises is two-fold:- They help you engage with a new perspective of the world. These lessons help you to release your past judgments and beliefs in order to see the world in a new light. Many of these ideas will be new, and some of them sound quite radical the first time you read them. Have patience, relax the tendency to discard ideas you do not believe, and let the flow of the exercises increase your energy.
- They are designed to help pace your spiritual progress. It is easy to become overwhelmed with this material. The exercises in the workbook are intended to be read 1 per day, giving yourself time to think about each idea and meditate on it as you move throughout your day.
Remember: The point of the entire course is to increase your ability to feel love, and to see that love reflected to you through the events of your day to day life. As you progress through the workbook, it’s best to read slowly, taking your time to process and think about each sentence or paragraph in turn. It helps if you engage with the practice of insight reading in order to understand more fully the concepts that each exercise presents.
