This practice is part of a greater series devoted to promoting character development and positive change. For those of you who only want to do the affirmations, I wanted to make them easily accessible. In this session, we are exploring Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence, which falls under the virtue of Transcendence.

Before we move into the affirmations, Let's pause for a brief blessing. May we be blessed with the ability to slow down long enough to notice what is beautiful, Meaningful, And good. May we allow ourselves to be surprised by wonder, Inspired by excellence, And touched by simple moments that might otherwise pass us by. May we remember that beauty is not something we have to earn, Achieve, Or become. It is something we can receive. May we celebrate the gifts and accomplishments of others without forgetting our own worth. May we remain open to the people, Places, Ideas, And experiences that expand our perspective. And remind us of what is possible. And may we move through this life with curious eyes. And open heart. And a willingness to be moved by something greater than ourselves. I will read each statement twice, Pausing in between to give you a chance to repeat them out loud to yourself, And I do recommend saying them out loud. The statements that are easy to embrace, Savor them, Appreciate them, Stand like a mountain in their truth. And then the statements that feel not so good, That feel uncomfortable or foreign. Go ahead and say them anyway. This is where we are doing the work, Rewiring those neural networks. This is also where we gain insight into unhealed wounds, Limiting beliefs, And ingrained biases and judgments toward ourselves or toward a particular way of being. It's great material for journaling or discussing with a counselor or trusted friend, Maybe even someone doing the series with you. Whether you're just waking up. Walking your dog, On your commute, Or getting ready for bed. I hope these affirmations serve your deepest, Greatest, Highest self. And with that, Let's get started.
