Today’s word is centered. Defined as “emotionally stable, calm, serene; having a balanced mind.” To take this a bit further, for me that emotionally stable, calm and serene state comes from finding my true center. For me this is Spirit. When I live in and from Spirit I find myself being emotionally stable, calm, serene and having a balanced mind. Centered.

“Every morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.” ―Buddha

If we carry the difficulties of one day through to the next, and the next and the next, they will pile up until we can no longer move forward in our life. But if we let go of the burdens and difficulties at the end of each day, we can move forward, born again and able to focus on what really matters.

What a blessing it is to have the chance of a fresh start with each new day. Thank you God.

I am valued.

Repeat this affirmation frequently throughout the day.

Today’s word is explore. We all need to look around, see new sites, try new things, think new ideas. When is the last time you went exploring? What did you discover?

I radiate love and positivity.

Repeat this affirmation even if you don’t believe it yet. It will come.

I believe in the power of empathy and compassion to create a better world. 

We live in a world that seems to have lost touch with empathy and compassion and their power to create a better world. Take time this week to listen to others. Don’t be quick to judge but listen with empathy and compassion.

I belong here and deserve to take up space.
