Hello and welcome.
This is Laura of Approachable Asana.
Thank you for joining this 30-day series,
The Daily Dose.
Each day there will be a short meditation practice using a positive affirmation as a mantra.
I encourage you to say these out loud as you move throughout your day.
You can even write them down on a post-it note or in a journal.
Each day will have a different affirmation and over time,
Hopefully they will help you shift any negative thinking patterns and replace them with positive ones.
With consistent use,
These affirmations can help you reprogram that subconscious mind.
Let's go ahead and find a comfortable seat.
Can do this practice seated in a chair on the floor.
Sit up nice and tall.
Relax your jaw and shoulders.
Allow your hands to rest in your lap or on your legs.
Allow your gaze to soften or your eyes to close if that feels safe and available.
And let's begin inhaling through the nose and exhaling with a sigh.
Let's do that two more times.
Inhaling through the nose,
Exhaling with a sigh.
One final inhale through the nose,
Exhale with a sigh.
Take a moment to just notice and be present.
Silently repeat to yourself the phrase,
I am brave and able to face my fears.
I am brave and able to face my fears.
Feel the power in this phrase.
Notice what sensations come up as you repeat silently to yourself,
I am brave and able to face my fears.
I am brave and able to face my fears.
Stay here as long as you need to,
Repeating this phrase silently to yourself,
Feeling its impact,
And then take it with you as you move throughout your day.
Take care and be well.
