Morning Affirmations/Rituals Revisited

I posted last week about wanting to add morning affirmations or rituals to my morning routine.  I wanted something where I took a few minutes before I start my day to make my intentions for the day known.  To put my intention for the day out there into the universe.  So it's been a few days & I have to say I find it actually makes a difference.  It doesn't take me very long.  Here's what I do it's very simple.  I light a candle & then repeat each of these statements three times:

      ~ Today will be a good day

      ~ I will be patient today

      ~ I will feed my body not my mood

 

After that I blow out the candle.  Simple right? 

 

There are benefits linked to doing affirmations.  I will list some benefits, but you can also check out the link above:

 

~ you use positive affirmations to direct your focus instead of negative self-talk

~ redirect your values

~ help formulate goals

~ conquer fears

 

Make sure your affirmations are self-developed, meaning they are ones you've come up with yourself that way they are more powerful, and will work better for you.
