Before we begin,
We'll have ourselves a quick blessing.
May we be blessed with the ability to see clearly.
To understand without rushing to conclusions.
To listen without needing to be right.
To hold complexity without shutting down.
May we become the kind of people whose wisdom is not loud but deep.
Not performative but felt and experienced.
May our insights arise not from ego but from quiet attunement.
From a willingness to see the whole.
To honor the parts.
And to offer perspective with grace and care.
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.
The statements that feel not so good,
That feel uncomfortable or foreign or like straight up lies,
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 or 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 this 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.
