Hey,

It's Melanie.

Before your day starts moving,

I'd love for you to take a moment with me to breathe,

To settle in,

To be here.

This is how I start my day every day.

And honestly,

It makes a huge difference.

It shifts my mindset,

And it really grounds me in gratitude.

Plus,

It reminds me that I get to choose how I move through the day.

So I'm going to start with the affirmations that I use.

And you can feel free to repeat them after me,

Silently or out loud.

Or you can also just listen.

And just remember,

You don't need to be perfect.

You just need to be present.

So let's start with just a few breaths and just a few truths.

I am allowed to move slowly.

I trust myself,

Even when I don't have all the answers.

I will give myself the kindness I offer others.

I don't need to earn rest or joy.

My worth is not measured by my productivity.

I can begin any time I want to today.

I am beautiful.

I am a miracle.

I am allowed to move slowly.

I trust myself,

Even when I don't have all the answers.

I will give myself the kindness I offer others.

I don't need to earn rest or joy.

My worth is not measured by my productivity.

I can begin any time I want today.

I am beautiful.

I am a miracle.

I am a miracle.

Take these with you today.

And if nothing else today feels steady,

Know that this moment was.

Thank you for joining me.

Speak soon.

I discovered this wonderful session at midday, and it was exactly what I needed. This will be a perfect way to freshly ground and center myself at any point of the day.

Beautiful way to start my day… thank you dear one. I CAN move SLOWLY (that one is a sincere gift to me, as someone with an extreme and constant sense of urgency.) XO πŸ’•
