Affirmations for Returning to Center

When you know things are out of balance...

I feel and experience gratitude in this moment. I acknowledge that I've been busy, a lot on my plate, mind moving in all different directions and I push pause now.

I take a deep breath and feel the ease and relaxation in my body. I feel my eyes relax, my cheeks, my nose, my tongue, my lips, my jaw, my neck, my shoulders

I feel the weight, pressure, stress ease and soften with each deep breath.  I feel myself becoming grounded and anchored again.  I am aware of my body and each breath brings me closer, in tune with my soul and my centre.

I keep in check and I put in check again the person who is in charge of my time, how I plan my time, how I spend my time, my values, my priorities and my well being and that's me.  And if I feel the need to reset because I've gotten too far, far away from the core of who I am and the core of who I want to be, then it's time to reset

I know the word no, I know how to communicate it and it's up to me simply to communicate it, even when I need to say it to myself. I make plenty of sacrifices on many levels for others. But there's some things I'm not willing to sacrifice because it compromises my health, my well being and my personal fulfillment in this season of life.

I live reflecting on who I am and who I want to be each day, each week, each month. And now I take time to reflect on what's working in my life, what's not working in my life and the changes I need to make.

I affirm that I am moving forward in the direction I want to be going in. I am setting goals and I am reaching them. I am focused in achieving a richer life every day.

You Are Worthy ❤️

 

Feeling down about yourself? Struggling with setting boundaries? Wishing you were better at managing your emotions and staying grounded in the present?

Very often, we lose ourselves in the darkness of our own judgment. We allow our inner critic to drown out our voice of self-compassion, and find ourselves in a downward spiral of negativity - yikes!

But imagine what would happen if you started speaking to yourself kindly. Imagine if you embraced all parts of yourself - even the work in progress parts - and welcomed an abundance of self love into your heart, body, and mind.
