This is Rachel from Therapist Spills the Tea,
And thanks for joining me for a mindfulness moment.
This one is a series of mantras and affirmations for putting yourself first.
Many of us are people-pleasers,
And we find ourselves burning out and stressed because we prioritize others' needs over our own.
And putting ourself first is not selfish,
It is self-care.
Please enjoy these series of mantras.
I value my personal time and myself.
It is not selfish for me to stop people-pleasing and take care of myself instead.
I choose to value my needs and put them first.
I am not letting the needs of others disrupt my inner peace.
Even if I say no,
It is not my fault someone else is unhappy.
I can only find myself if I stop working to please others.
I recognize the importance of self-care,
And I choose to prioritize it.
Saying no respectfully and kindly will help me to prioritize myself without feeling bad.
My needs are valued and important.
I am not responsible for the feelings of anyone else except myself.
I am going to focus on the things that matter most to me.
I focus on my life path rather than approval from others.
I am focused on improving my self-respect.
When I value myself,
I attract valuable people and things.
I am responsible for making decisions in my life.
Putting myself first is my first priority.
I choose to trust myself and tune into my needs.
I choose self-care.
I choose to nourish myself,
Mind,
Body,
And spirit.
I love myself.
Thanks for joining me,
And I'll see you next time.
