Daily Affirmations: Time for Me

heronhead

Sometimes it seems so difficult to keep moving forward. One day you are stuck in the muck, another day you are wading in deep waters. And then, there are those days when you can’t find your way out of the everyday world that surrounds you, to take a little time for yourself. But that time for yourself is vital, be it a few moments of meditation, a walk around the block, or day of doing nothing.

Today, I re-mind myself that it is okay and quite necessary to take time for me. I breathe deeply, exhale and vow that today and each day forward I will make time in my busy life each day, that I might find peace and joy in, even for the most fleeting moment.

Daily Affirmations: Open Heart and Mind

peoniesflox2

We are all flowers blossoming in our own unique ways and we make choices each day about how we show up to those around us and the world. Today, I choose to show up as a radiant flower, in full blossom, with an open heart and an open mind, expressing compassion and acceptance towards each person whom I meet. I recognize that the petals of a flower are symbolic of the open heart and mind which I possess and cultivate each day as one cultivates a garden of flowers.

Daily Affirmations: We Are All Connected

Today, I am re-minded that my well-being is connected to the well-being of others. In that, we are all connected, like three dories tied together on one river mooring, we are all dependent upon one another. I seek this day and everyday, to connect with each person I meet with a heart full of compassion and a mind full of empathy.

Daily Affirmations: My Sense of History

Sometimes we overlook the things we have done in our lives as we wish we could do more things, or go somewhere we like to travel to, or have opportunities others have. In these moments we can re-mind ourselves of this:

“I value my sense of history. I am alert to the many colorful and enjoyable episodes in my own life’s unfolding. Rather than bemoan a lack of color or adventure in my life, I consciously choose to notice and appreciate the many small adventures and victories which each of my days entertains. I focus on the precise and measurable evidence of the good that comes to me as I am alert to life’s many blessings. I notice, remark, and remember the kind word, the well-told joke, the flashing beauty of a small finch lighting on a roadside shrub. Alert to the beauty and detail around me, I revel ever more fully in the many graces life has to offer me.” – Julia Cameron: Blessings: Prayers and Declarations for a Heartful Life

Today I affirm the words of His Holiness, The Dalai Lama, “The basic sources of happiness are a good heart, compassion and love.” As I go through my day, I re-mind myself to greet each person I meet with joy in my heart and hold them each in the highest esteem.
