My healing journey: Daily Affirmations ✨

Words hold so much weight. It is so often that we overlook the power of what we say to ourselves and how these words can manifest within our lives. This is why words of affirmation are vital to our journey of personal growth and healing. Acceptance, Love and Intention have been the biggest themes throughout my journey and the ones I genuinely struggle the most with. So I wanted to share the vulnerability of these affirmations, to hopefully provide comfort to those also struggling.

“I honor where I am in my journey”: Acceptance.

Throughout my personal journey of growth, acceptance has been my biggest struggle. It is the battles of feeling like I'm not making progress or feeling embarrassed when I express vulnerability that have caused me to acknowledge that every version of me deserves acceptance. It is actually the act of surrendering to every version of yourself and not always trying to “fix it” that will ultimately open up the door to loving your most authentic self. Every version of you is good enough.

“As I focus on the love around and within me, I attract more and more love into my life”: Love.

Words can hurt, but words can also heal. It is common that a lot of times we lack this love for ourselves that is necessary for not just healing but for finding yourself. Knowing that you are love and that love you have, isn't just within you but all around you will change the way you view yourself. Instead of having a negative connotation to your process, you provide this blanket of comfort to always go back to. Whether you took yourself on a date or showed yourself extra love with a nighttime skincare routine, these little acts we give to ourselves show us just how important and lovable we are.

“ I love with a constant sense of intention. From moment to moment, I know why I am here: Intention.

This one hasn't come into my journey until more recently when I started realizing that the people and energy I was surrounding myself with, was actually halting my journey. And I mean this in the sense that I wasn't surrounding myself with things that wanted me to grow. Whether these were old habits that no longer were serving their purpose, or friend groups that I never felt genuinely myself in, I desperately needed a change of environment in order to flourish into a different phase of my journey. It wasn't until then that I started realizing the importance of intentional energy and living. That it didn’t need to just be intentional with those I was surrounding myself with, but also the time I was spending with myself. Doing things that felt intimate, and close to my core, were extremely prominent concepts that aided in a lot of growth for me and the energy I was giving/ putting out.

Make sure that the words we are telling ourselves in this vulnerable time are meaningful and intentional. because the words we tell ourselves, manifest within our daily lives. So as you continue to grow and flourish into this beautiful version of yourself, remember to affirm the good qualities about yourself and love them.
