The Power of Pause

The power of pause:

When I began to lose the war against anxiety, I pause.

I sit, I focus, I breathe deeply, and I call my mind, body, and soul to a place of safety, calm, and peace.

I close my eyes inhale and confess:

My Mind is at Peace
(Exhale)

(Inhale)
My Heartbeat is Steady
(Exhale)

(Inhale)
My Spirit is Calm
(Exhale)

(Inhale)
My Body is at Rest
(Exhale)

And if my mind continues to spiral and refuses to hear my voice, I sit, I breathe, and I write:

My Mind is at Peace

My Heartbeat is Steady

My Spirit is Calm

My Body is at Rest

I repeatedly write or speak until my spoken or written words begin to manifest peace, steadiness, calm, and rest!

I pray this helps someone today!

Today and everyday I believe that:

YOUR MIND IS AT PEACE
YOUR HEARTBEAT IS STEADY
YOUR SPIRIT IS CALM
YOUR BODY IS AT REST!

🥇 You WIN 🥇

Today is the perfect day to be proud of all of the progress you’ve made!

For me, this Sunday August 8 marks the day my favorite cotton candy doughnut leaves Greenville forever! When I got the e-mail, I panicked, I wanted to eat one for breakfast at least 3 times this week as I may never see that beautiful, delicious doughnut again!

I drive by Krispy Kreme every day, it’s Friday AND I’VE NOT HAD ONE DOUGHNUT YET! Why, because I’ve committed to healthy eating during the week, it’s my commitment to myself.

Seems like small potatoes but this is huge win for the girl that once HAD to have something sweet every day!

SUGAR IS NO LONGER IN CONTROL OF MY LIFE!

I AM IN CONTROL!

Stop minimizing your victories!

🏆If you didn’t eat the doughnut.
🏆If you walked the stairs instead of taking the elevator.
🏆If you responded maturely in conflict.
🏆If you checked one thing off of your to do list.
🏆If you told someone NO.
🏆If you gave yourself time

YOU WIN!

These trophies are for you!!
I’m so proud of you.

If you’ve got a win, say so, put your award winning 🥇 medal in the comments and say, “I’m so proud of ME!”

Love on yourself today, reward yourself.

I’ll be having my last cotton candy doughnut tomorrow for breakfast 🤤😆

Happy Happy Friday!

Be YOU!

🗣Say it with me,

We need you to be unapologetically, uniquely you because only you can do what you were carefully crafted and intentionally designed to do!

Say that ⬆️ tongue twister 3x

The first step to loving yourself is “dating” yourself.

⏱ Allow yourself 20 minutes of self reflection today!

Here’s a conversation starter:

My name is _ My favorite color is
My happy place is I smile most when
I’m sad when I want
I do not want I’m passionate about
I’m graced for

Enjoy your date, treat yourself while you teach yourself all about your passions, loves, pains, graces, wins and fails.
