I Matter

Something or someone will always demand our attention. We spend so much time giving ourselves to others that it’s easy to forget our own importance. Today, we’ll be reciting affirmations to remind ourselves of our own importance in this world.

Welcome to Charm Words,

Your daily reminder to be good to yourself and others.

My name's Zola,

And together,

We're going to breathe in the good,

Breathe out the bad,

And use words to remind ourselves of our worth.

Every day,

Something or someone demands our attention.

We spend so much time giving ourselves to the world that we sometimes forget our own importance.

Putting the demands of the world before yourself shows that you are selfless.

But you should never forget that you also matter.

Today,

We'll be reminding ourselves of our own importance in the world.

Let's do some belly breathing,

Then we'll do our affirmations.

When you breathe in,

Use your nose and keep your shoulders still.

Once your belly fills up like a balloon,

Breathe out through your mouth by just letting go.

In through the nose,

Out through the mouth.

Ready?

Take a gentle,

Deep breath slowly through your nose and breathe out through your mouth.

In through your nose and out through your mouth.

Breathe in,

Breathe out.

One more time,

Breathe in and breathe out.

Today's charm words are,

I matter.

I'll say it first,

Then repeat after me.

Ready?

I matter.

I matter.

I matter.

I matter.

I matter.

I matter.

Awesome.

As a matter of fact,

Without you,

I wouldn't be here every day.

Thank you for joining us on this journey.

On the count of three,

High five the person closest to you or clap your hands together and high five yourself.

Ready?

One,

Two,
