Wake & Affirm: A 5-Minute Practice

Take a moment to evaluate how your body feels this morning.

Do a quick check through the body.

Sending it love.

If there are any places that are a little tight,

A little stiff,

Just maybe breathe a little deeper into those areas.

Not trying to change anything,

But just sending that area a little bit more breath,

A little bit more love.

Now we're going to go over a few affirmations just to get our day off to a good start.

So you can either just listen and absorb or repeat along.

I live as my best self.

Take a deep inhale.

Hold on to that mantra,

Repeat it in your mind,

And release.

Inhale.

Hold all of these mantras,

Just keeping them close to your heart,

And as you exhale,

Exhale.

Exhale powerfully.

Gently blink the eyes open.

Find some nice gentle movements by just rotating the wrists and ankles,

Maybe rocking the knees back and forth before gently coming onto your side in order to push yourself up.

Plant those feet on the ground.

Beautiful.

I wish you a wonderful day.
