Today is a day to focus on balance. Sometimes my energy dips up or down, my mood swings, battles seem uphill, or opportunities seem to slide downhill. But these are outer appearances. Within myself, I am completely in balance. I am balanced physically through exercise and healthy food. I am balanced emotionally through loving, peaceful relationships. I am balanced mentally with happy, positive thoughts. From the inner to the outer, everything in my life today is in perfect balance.
Today is a day to focus on safety. I will remove from my mind any ideas that make me think I am not safe. There are many beings and circumstances in the world that affect me and my surroundings. I cannot control them, but I can protect myself from them. I can deflect their negative energies and impulses. I am aware that I am protected by all of the forces of the universe and have no need to fear.
Observe … Do not let ‘outside forces’ disrupt your peace of mind and rational decisions.
Longing for what once was is a form of living in the past … let it go, let ‘them’ go … focus on the present moment and what you can do to make it the best possible moment.
Look inside yourself, not at what another may bring to make your day better. Self-reliance, self-love, recognize your own personal value and power to shift and mold your energy and environment.
Smile whenever you can. It will “lift a mood”.
Worrying about the negatives that may come is the same as being fearful of death. It is a complete waste of the “now” energy.
When you focus on suffering, it is an open invitation for more of it to enter your life. Instead, focus on the beautiful things in life, the things that bring a smile to your lips and put a little song in your heart.
Remember being a child in school and doing something naughty and having to write on the chalk board “I will not ….” or something to that affect?
Buy a notepad and fill a page with affirmation, just like that. Line after line repeat it, let it flood your mind for a moment.
I AM Strong … I AM Powerful … I AM Beautiful … I AM Blessed … I AM Worthy … I AM Capable … I AM Free … I AM Enough …
Whatever affirmation you choose, write it, repeat it, grow it in your heart and mind. Let it fill your world, your ‘space’ and generate a new creation for yourself, a new way of thinking and being in this world.
See the gifts in challenge. One can be taught within the calm. But the greatest lessons are learned from the storms.
Today I will remember the wins in my life and not my defeats. I know that growth is the outcome of adversity. I am stronger not because I fall down, but because I can get back up. I give thanks for the storms of life and know that on the other side will come the sun.
We are all becoming. Surrender to your changes. Release your fear. Trust this powerful process.
Today I remember the infinite rhythm of life. I will not be afraid of the darkness for it is always followed by the light. I will not be surprised when the light seems to fade for it is just a part of the process. I know life is a circle of birth, death, and rebirth. I will not fear. I will embrace all that I am becoming and welcome change.
Acknowledge your mission. Align with your purpose. You have gifts to share with the world.
Today I will look deep within myself, remember my destiny and who I really am. I will not let others influence me. I will follow my heart regardless of what others tell me to do. I know my dreams will guide me to my greatness. Today I will align with my mission and feel the power of purpose.
Take time for the dreamer in you. Find your power in stillness. In your sacred space is the peace you seek.
Today I will create a place of stillness. I will take time for my dreams and give thanks for my life. I will look within and find the peace I seek for it is always with me. I will make myself and my world a sacred space with a magic cloak of gratitude and I will be happy.
Something wonderful is happening. Change is in the air. Open yourself to blessings on their way.
Today I know that something wonderful is going to happen. I will keep my eyes and ears open for the guideposts to these unknown blessings. I give thanks for change and the faith that life is about to get even better than I ever thought possible.
Be open for whatever comes next. It might just be the music your hearts been waiting to hear.
Today I know that I must let go of the past to make room for the new. I will appreciate what I already have and create space for even more. In expectation of what is coming I give thanks. I will sing songs of gratitude while the wings of optimism lift me up and take me on the ride of a lifetime.

No matter what happens you can find new wings. Rise from the past. Accept the positive change that is coming.
Today I will give thanks for my trials and recognize them for the many gifts they bring. I know I grow stronger in the broken places. I know that the world will turn in my favor; that the dark night is over and a new day is here because the light has returned. I have ended things well and am ready for this new beginning. I will shine, because the whole universe is mine.
Be open for whatever comes next. It might just be the music your heart’s been waiting to hear.
Today I know that I must let go of the past to make room for the new. I will appreciate what I already have and create space for even more. In expectation for what is coming I give thanks. I will sing songs of gratitude while the wings of optimism lift me up and take me on the ride of a lifetime.
Be bold, and mighty forces will aid you. Take action. Good luck favors the brave.
Today I will start a new journey. I will not wait until everything is just right. I know there will always be challenges, obstacles, and imperfect conditions. So what! I will get started now. With each step I will grow stronger, more skilled, and more confident. I will take a risk and I will succeed.
Today is a day to focus on removing obstacles. Some days it feels like doors shut, roadblocks go up, stairs become steeper. Obstacles can teach me things, I know. But sometimes enough is enough and it is time to clear them out. Today I remove any obstacles of thought or action that are keeping me from reaching my goals. These obstacles will diminish and my way will be made clear.
A question many of us are asking ourselves these days.
I Am a resilient survivor.
A tackler of inner triggers.
One who must consciously focus on positive affirmation to counter the habitual negative patterns.
A molder of personal character.
One who is in process of releasing judgement and the need to be right.
A person who has vowed to never simply ‘settle’ for the mediocre, the stagnant waters of life. Making effort to stir it up, open it up, and create that which is beneficial and able to incorporate something greater.
One who recognizes that life is a balance.
Working on the scales of positive and negative, aware that when a negative crops up it must immediately be countered with a positive.
A woman who is taking pleasure in cleaning up her surroundings.
A woman in process of admiring that which she has become … thus far …
She recognizes that pessimism and thoughts about the way things ought to be need thrown out the window.
She longs to love and care for life in all its many forms and ways of being, yet like religion, knows that variance of opinion or belief does not need to be imposed upon another.
Freedom to be, to choose … an inherent right, as long as it does no harm to the children, physically or mentally.
Harm … who is to judge what that is? For it varies on the scale of 1 to 10, as does all else in this world … the Scale of Polarity.
I Am She who sees the light of a child in the eyes of a canine, a squirrel, and many other forms of life.
She who sees love shared among even the smallest of creatures, and the celebration of joy in the simplest of experiences.
One who acknowledges past conditioning created many barriers which need dismantled, patterns of beingness reformatted.
She who is determined to take charge and choose a different future from those of previous cycles. Choosing to be an active Creator of environment and life.
A Gentle Soul capable of a Mighty Roar.
One who accepts the guidance and sometimes path altering pushes from Guardian, Guides, Ancestors and Angels.
She admits that her thoughts and ideas should not, and cannot, form the collective scale of what is appropriate. So she practices release of opinion and the sometimes hidden judgement.
One who is grateful to be free from rule-making and managing the various outputs of another.
The world is filled to the brim with people pushing, pulling and attempting to format the minds and hearts of those living around them, and otherwise, ignoring the internal workings of their own mind and heart.
Any time a criticism arises of someone or something, it must be flipped straightaway to the personal … Am I this or that? Do I do this or that? Only then can we begin the see the reality of outward appearances and circumstances as our mirror, which is most often found to be our own reflection.
That beautiful mirror that allows us to see the Raw Truth, should we be willing.
Take a break and enjoy a quiet period. This time can be used to regroup, recover and stabilize yourself. It is wise to keep in mind the fact that this is for a limited period of time. You are pausing to regain your footing. As you evaluate your environment, check to see if you need to clear any ill with anyone. Ask for forgiveness and be willing to forgive as necessary to move forward. Enjoy this downtime. Acknowledge the importance of recharging your energy so you are refreshed and ready to tackle life and any challenges that come your way.
Nature holds all aspects of light. The light is the same brilliant light that shines out of every child while they are still in touch with the magic of the world and nature. Find the innocence of your childhood light within you and reconnect with it. This light represents your virtue and holds the memory of perfect trust, fearlessness in others and total self-reliance. It will allow you to see the world with the eyes of a child. You will be excited to learn new things every day. How much happier your world would be if everyone reconnected to his or her purest essence!
A new course or route is coming into your awareness. It is time to utilize your knowledge and complete the task at hand. As you finish one aspect of your life, begin thinking about what you would like to do next. This is part of your life’s journey – you are constantly shifting and developing. You may feel contentment, fulfillment and pride, because you have accomplished something. There is productivity and reward as a bonus for your efforts. The good fortune you realize is evidence that you are putting sufficient energy into your life’s journey to get out of it all you desire.
