Dear Vimala,
I wrote to you asking to be placed in the Alphabetical Prayer Circle in early December 2011. At the time my job of four years had become unbearable and had started to affect my health as well as my total well being. You immediately wrote back to me saying that you would place me in your healing circle and said that I would get my "Dream Job." At that time I had no idea or could even imagine what a Dream Job would be ! I just knew that I could trust that something would happen. I have been faithfully practising my letters and also working with the Alphabetical Prayer Circle requests. I read all the interesting stories of how after following the practisings of Vimala writing....miracles have happened to so many people .
Well, I would like to be added to that list of miracles! I'm letting you know I have just landed my Dream Job. At the tender age of recently becoming sixty, being offered a full time job with fewer hours, more money, and the most scenic working office you could ever imagine, this is real Soul Food that I have dreamt of for so long.
I want to thank you, and each and every one of the Alphabetical Prayer Circle people for their thoughts and wonderful pure energy that has touched me.
My writing continues and life can only be wonderful. Thank you so much for your inspiration and guidance. I would be most honoured for you to publish my letter. It will carry good positive energy and love to those who read it. We can all learn from each other.
My Gratitude and Love

After years of study and research, Vimala Rodgers developed The Vimala Alphabet. Each letter shape is designed specifically to bring your hidden talents and abilities to life. As you begin to adopt self-affirming writing patterns, you naturally release those that are self-limiting, and at the same time you reconfigure the neurological patterns in your brain. This process is invaluable for people who are determined to let go of the past and stride ahead fully expressed in life. In scientific circles it is called neuroplasticity or cortical remapping. All it takes is pen and paper.
Does it work? You bet it does! -- every time. Pick up your pen and experience it for yourself.

If you are among the courageous visionaries who want to transform their lives through the Vimala Alphabet technology, choose at least 3 letters:
- The first letter is the initial of your first name - not nickname, but your real birth first name. If you adopted a new first name after your 35th birthday, use that as your first name. By writing this letter, you will experience profound personal changes.
- The second letter is the Letter of the Week.
- The third letter is one you have chosen in order to bring about a specific transformation in your life. Choose a letter from the Vimala Alphabet Guidebook.
Follow these steps:
- Write at least 3 lines of upper and lowercase letters.
- Write on unlined paper in the landscape direction.
- No pencils, please. Use a pen.
- Begin by writing once, at the top of the page, the Declaration of Intent of the initial of your first name.
- Write the first and third letters for at least 40 consecutive days. If you skip a day, start over. 40 is the number of transformation; it takes 40 days for the neurons in the brain to realign themselves, which is what the process of adopting self-affirming handwriting patterns does.
- Write the third letter for a single week.

Just as you have gifts unique to who you are, so does each letter. I call them "aspects." I'd like to begin our new venture by sharing one of those aspects, perhaps the most important one of all: the Guardian Protector.
Through the years I've studied hundreds of traditions throughout the world, and have found that within each one, there are such beings that we call called "angels" in English, yet are called by a different name in many traditions: devas in the scriptures of India, Al-Malaikah in the Qur'an of Islam, Malakh in the Hebrew Bible--and on and on throughout the world. To avoid religious distinctions, I call each one a Guardian Protector, because that is their role.
Trust me. They are as alive and attentive as you and I--just invisible, that's all--but fully present nonetheless. Create a conversation with them--then you will know. As with everything I teach, I insist that you do not believe what I say. To know in your heart of hearts that what I say is true, I suggest that you experience it by adopting suggested writing habits, along with applying the aspects of each letter, especially that of the Guardian Protector.

Women tend to call this quality "intuition"; when I speak to groups of men, however, in particular mathematicians, attorneys, physicians, or engineers, I avoid the word "intuition" because their tendency is to interpret it as "new age silliness" or what they may call "woo woo." Instead, I refer to it as "insight," and expand it like this: "You know...those times when out of the blue an idea comes to you, and if you don't write it down right away it's gone? Or when all of a sudden you know something---without any basis---like spontaneously linking two seemingly disparate concepts only to discover that their marriage created something astounding that you had wanted in the past, but were unable to figure out how to make it work?" Those instances are called insights. They are the heart and soul of the Letter  .
By practicing this letter regularly, you will begin to act from the awareness that logic is not the only way to reach conclusions or solve problems. This subtle yet profound letter has a way of quietly removing overly vigilant mental guardedness and giving you direct access to your intuitive nature.
If is your letter of choice to write attentively, and "insight" is something you sincerely want to develop, along with writing lines of the Letter each day, and words containing it, write a few lines of the  ligature as well. Along with the Letter , I have written three lines of the each day for more than four years. Trust me. It adds fun to daily life---if you delight in the unexpected!
GUARDIAN PROTECTOR: Rafael (Rah-fy-EL)-the angel of inner healing.
Inner healing does not have to do with the pancreas, liver, or other "inner" organ; it is a healing that occurs as a result of the purification of attitudes: the release of judgments, guilt, blame and similar self-deprecating tendencies that prevent us from touching base with the Child of God we are. Rafael's job is to provide the comfort of deep inner peace surrounding any chaos that life may hold, allowing you to venture quietly inward when circumstances try to pull you down. If chaos or unsettled events are common occurrences in your life, you might want to strike up an acquaintance with Rafael. Angels not only listen, they respond in the most unexpected ways. Read above about the ligature.
Declaration of Intent:
I respectfully honor and listen to my intuition.
How to inscribe this letter
Uppercase 
From the baseline, inscribe a generous leftward loop in the upperzone. With a straight stroke, drop into the lower zone and create a leftward loop a bit narrower than the first one. Bring that loop up to the baseline, crossing over the initial stroke and finishing to the right.
Caveats:
- Keep the "spine" perfectly straight.
- Have the beginning and ending strokes form a soft sideways v shape at the baseline.
Lowercase 
Begin at the baseline with a gentle up-curve, ending at the top of the midzone. Drop straight into the lowerzone and create a moderate loop to the left of the descender. End at the baseline with a gentle upward curve in a rightward direction.
Caveat for both upper- and lowercase: Do not ever have the lowerzone be a stick. Not EVER.
P. S. Years ago when I began defining letter shapes, I included the "candy cane" J in one of my books-- in other words, the cursive uppercase that looked like a "candy cane" ---the printed one we learned in school. As I continue to do with all the letters, I kept my researcher's eye on the J; it bothered me. I could write a chapter on my discoveries, but to simplify I shall only say: Always inscribe this uppercase . Always.

High flying loops!
Some time ago our Newsletter Angel explained why the lower loops when we write become "high flying" loops in the newsletter. In case you weren't here at the time, let me explain, as simply as I can with my minimal electronic knowledge: The formatting we use won't allow the loops to 'settle down' where they belong, especially when they appear on a mobile device...and we know of no other program that will. If these misplaced loops still bother you, you might want to do this: Practice writing lines of the Letter  (patience), the  Ligature (non-resistance), and the Letter  (gentle acceptance of what is). You might also include a few lines of the initial of your first name, because that one letter holds within it your greatest opportunity for spiritual growth---a curriculum in itself, as it were.
Sursum et pergite! (Upward and onward!)

Founding principles of the
International Institute of Handwriting Studies
|
Last year, several "Handwriters for Peace" members requested, and we formed, an Alphabetical Prayer Circle through which members could ask for specific prayers in emergency situations and we would hold both those intentions with our own intentions in our prayers.
Because it's time to expand the Circle, I'm inviting you to join us. There is no need to become a Handwriter for Peace, nor do you have to give me your name, only your e-mail address, as I send all Prayer Circle Emails as BCCs. If you choose to join us, please send an e-mail to vimala@vimalarodgers.com with PRAYER CIRCLE in the Subject Box and this message: I'd like to join your Alphabetical Prayer Circle.
To strengthen our intentions, each day we agree to spend a precious 10 seconds once---or many times a day---offering our Alphabetical Healing Prayer:
Fill each of us with Your Healing Light:
those of us in this Prayer Circle,
all those we love,
and all those we have difficulty loving.
Thank You.
Also...In the course of the day, each of us devotes a few minutes of quiet time to write, on unlined paper, one line of the initial of our first name (not nickname) in both upper- and lowercase. Just one line; that's it...more if you care to. Read more online...
