It's another day to pause and reflect.
0:05
I am from Dulin.
0:08
I am glad to have you in this space
0:12
where we are still talking on
0:16
affirmations.
0:18
Today
0:20
we are going to be laying emphasis on
0:22
morning affirmations to shape your day.
0:29
This moment is an invitation to begin
0:32
your day with intention
0:35
before the noise of the day becomes loud
0:39
before responsibilities
0:41
begin pulling you in different
0:45
direction. This is a quiet space to
0:49
center yourself
0:52
and
0:54
breathe
0:56
with freedom
0:58
to relax your muscles
1:01
and cause your circulation to become
1:04
free.
1:07
The way we begin our morning often
1:10
shapes the emotional tone of the entire
1:13
day.
1:15
Many people wake up already carrying the
1:18
weight of yesterday's worries,
1:21
yesterday's disappointments
1:24
or the pressure of what lies ahead.
1:28
But the morning is also a powerful
1:31
doorway,
1:34
a doorway where we can gently choose the
1:38
thought that will guide us.
1:42
Today we will explore how affirmations
1:47
can help shape the direction of our day.
1:51
And we will also reflect on a story that
1:56
unfold or on a story that unfolded in a
2:01
therapy room.
2:03
Take a slow breath in
2:08
and gently release it.
2:13
Take another one and and release it.
2:19
Just try to relax your your neck. Just
2:23
turn your neck left, right, forward,
2:28
backwards.
2:31
Take it down to your shoulders. You can
2:34
be able to move your shoulders forward,
2:37
backwards.
2:39
And then gently take it down to the to
2:42
your uh um the back your lower body. You
2:48
can just roll it
2:51
forward backward twist
2:54
your body.
2:59
By so doing
3:02
you're allowing your mind to settle.
3:05
Before we begin the affirmations, let me
3:08
share something meaningful that happened
3:11
during a therapeutic conversation.
3:15
Some time ago, I worked with a client
3:17
who often described waking up with a
3:20
sense of heaviness.
3:24
Each morning, he will immediately think
3:27
about everything that was not going well
3:29
in his life.
3:31
The thoughts will arrive quickly.
3:37
I am behind life.
3:39
I am not doing enough.
3:42
I am failing.
3:46
By the time he left his house, he
3:49
already felt discouraged.
3:51
This happened because of the challenges
3:54
and the difficulties
3:56
he already faced in his life.
4:01
During one session
4:05
when the negative biases
4:08
were expressed,
4:10
I gently asked him a question.
4:14
What is the first thing you say to
4:16
yourself when you wake up?
4:20
He paused for a long moment.
4:25
Then he answered honestly.
4:28
I usually tell myself that today will
4:31
pro will probably be another difficult
4:34
day. That simple sentence had quietly
4:41
become the script of his mornings.
4:48
Together we began experimenting with
4:52
something simple. Every morning before
4:54
leaving his bed, he will pause, breathe
4:59
slowly and speak a few affirmations
5:03
to himself, becoming grateful
5:08
for his bed that carried him through the
5:12
night
5:13
and supported him to rest. dressed in
5:17
his entire body, for his pillow that
5:20
actually supported his head, for his
5:23
blanket that provided a warmth, for his
5:27
womb
5:29
that actually protected and preserved
5:31
him from getting the direct
5:36
weather out of the environment.
5:41
At first, it felt uncomfortable to him.
5:45
He said the words sounded unfamiliar,
5:49
but he agreed to try for 30 days.
5:55
Each morning he repeated simple
5:58
statements.
6:00
I am capable of handling this day. I
6:05
will approach today with calm and
6:08
clarity. I allow myself to grow through
6:13
whatever today brings.
6:16
After several weeks, something began to
6:19
change. His personal
6:23
concerns did not just go away,
6:27
but his relationship with those concerns
6:32
shifted. Instead of entering the day
6:35
already defeated, he began entering the
6:38
day with a sense of steadiness, balance.
6:42
He later told me something that stayed
6:46
with me.
6:48
When I say stayed with me,
6:51
these uh statements
6:54
encouraged me to keep supporting the
6:58
people who come into my therapy room
7:01
today. It helped me to keep supporting
7:04
those who need psychological,
7:08
emotional, mental support. The statement
7:12
he later told me is this. The situation
7:17
around me
7:20
are still challenging.
7:23
But I feel different inside. I feel like
7:27
I am walking into the day with my
7:31
shoulders
7:33
back instead of my head down.
7:37
This is the quiet power of affirmation.
7:40
And this is where the change be begins.
7:45
They do not this uh uh gentle power do
7:50
not just really say uh what is there is
7:55
no longer there
7:57
but they shape the simple mindset with
8:00
which we need reality.
8:03
Now take a slow deep breath in
8:08
and gently release it.
8:14
Take another one. Gently release it.
8:21
Allow yourself to become present in this
8:24
moment.
8:26
Remember that the power is in this
8:28
moment. The power is in the now.
8:33
If you are able to consistently
8:38
influence the moment,
8:42
you enjoy
8:44
your life. As you listen to the
8:46
following affirmations,
8:49
allow each sentence to settle gently
8:51
within you.
8:54
You may repeat them silently
8:59
or aloud if you desire.
9:06
And remember
9:08
that for you to begin affirmation, it is
9:11
always good to place your right palm on
9:13
your heart area.
9:15
Now let's go. Today is a new beginning.
9:22
I welcome this day with openness and
9:25
courage. I am capable of meeting today's
9:29
challenges. I approach this day with
9:32
clarity and calm. I trust my ability to
9:37
go through experience.
9:39
I allow confidence to guide my actions.
9:46
I move through this day with purpose.
9:49
My thoughts support my well-being. I
9:54
speak to myself with patience
9:57
and encouragement. I am becoming the
10:00
person I am meant to be. I welcome
10:05
opportunities
10:06
to learn and develop. My presence in
10:11
this world matters.
10:14
I move forward with quiet confidence. I
10:20
allow today to unfold with wisdom and
10:24
grace. Take
10:27
a slow deep breath in and gently release
10:32
it.
10:34
Take another deep breath in, gently
10:39
release it.
10:41
Allow the words to settle within your
10:44
mind and body.
10:49
If it feels comfortable,
10:54
place your hand softly over your heart.
10:57
Again
11:00
take another slow
11:03
deep breath in.
11:09
Now
11:13
repeat quietly within yourself.
11:19
Today I walk with confidence.
11:28
Today I grow. Today I trust myself.
11:34
Remember that authentic self-development
11:37
does not happen in a single moment.
11:44
It is a process
11:47
that unfolds
11:49
gradually
11:51
through small daily choices. Choices to
11:55
speak kindly to yourself.
12:00
choices to approach life with curiosity
12:03
instead of defeat. Choices
12:06
to stand up each morning and begin
12:10
again. As you continue your day, carry
12:14
these affirmations with you.
12:17
You can write them on an index card
12:21
uh and put it on your on your table in
12:24
your office. You can equally write the
12:28
ones that resonate with you on an index
12:31
card and put it in your wallet. Travel
12:34
with it. Keep it in a place where your
12:37
eyes can easily fall on it during your
12:42
daily activity.
12:45
Let them become
12:47
quiet companions that support your
12:50
thoughts and action. It is always good
12:54
to practice affirmation. You can choose
12:58
to follow this video every morning as a
13:04
guide to be able to support you awaken
13:09
this practice that can actually shape
13:12
your life and cause it to become
13:18
a better life. Remember that you are the
13:22
author of your life.
13:25
You were created and some of you things
13:28
that have happened you did not really
13:30
have direct control over because you
13:33
were not conscious of who you are and a
13:38
lot of how you function as a person.
13:44
Right now you have come to that place of
13:47
understanding.
13:49
Your life is in your hands. Take full
13:53
responsibility
13:55
by
13:58
becoming that person
14:00
that takes affirmation
14:02
as a grounding technique for a life of
14:07
fulfillment.
14:11
Thank you for taking this moment to
14:13
pause and reflect with me. May your day
14:17
unfold with clarity, courage, and
14:20
strength.
14:23
I wish you
14:26
support by the universe as you move.
14:34
I wish you
14:36
ease
14:39
miracles, signs and wonders. Today many
14:44
opportunities
14:46
are opened and waiting for you to grasp.
14:51
You are becoming
14:54
conscious
14:56
to noticing and creating positive
14:59
outcome today.
15:05
Today
15:07
is the best day of your life.
15:10
Now repeat this with me. Today is the
15:13
best day of my life.
15:19
Until next time,
15:23
keep
15:25
pouring out good words towards your day
15:29
and everything is going to fall in
15:32
place.
15:35
Have a great day.
15:37
I say I love you because of these little
15:40
steps you're taking to become a better
15:43
version of yourself.
15:46
Our
15:49
families need us. Our communities need
15:53
us. Our world needs us. Thank you for
15:57
being a change maker.
