I woke up a few minutes ago,
And instead of letting my mind wander into the events of my upcoming day at work and how things might play out, I decided to say some affirmations…
Years ago when I first read the book “You Can Heal Your Life” I remember putting this routine into practice…
There were about four or five affirmations I had written down on a piece of paper and I kept that piece of paper next to me as I slept (I was single and sleeping alone in a big queen size bed at the time)…
Every morning when I woke up, before I would turn over to get out of bed, or start to think about anything that might give me anxiety about my day, I would say the affirmations I wrote on that paper out loud with feeling…
Change didn’t happen right away…
As I recall, it took a few weeks of being in this routine before I saw the things I was affirming actually coming to pass in my life…
It’s funny how things come back around…
This morning, I didn’t have any affirmations written down and my husband was asleep next to me, so I just whispered out loud to myself…
“I love, approve and appreciate you exactly as you are (insert your name here)… You are perfect, whole and complete…”
I also said on of my all time favorite abundance affirmations “I am an unlimited being, accepting from an unlimited source in an unlimited way and I am open and receptive to all of the good and abundance in the universe, thank you God…”
And “today is one of the best days of my life… I lovingly forgive and release the past, I am free…”
As I whispered these affirmations out loud, I smiled and felt a good feeling about them…
These are the moments that count…
The moments of intentional motion and movement into a new way of thinking and being…
these small moments mount up and make change possible…
I am proud of myself, for making the effort to move my life in a different direction…
I am a seeker of knowledge and I would love to hear about other successful morning routines, maybe there is something that I could add to mine to make it even better, please share your routine in the comments below, thanks!
