10-minute Morning Affirmations

This nine-morning affirmations course is based on the nine natural energies of the Tao. Each affirmation starts with gentle breathing, then a short teaching on that morning’s ritual, and the completion of the daily affirmation. This is done in gentle repetition. Each morning affirmation involves the mind, a mudra, and a mantra.
