So much of creating a healthy environment for nourishment revolves around our own feelings of self-worth and positivity. How you describe yourself carries into how you live your life and present yourself to others.
This week, a fellow health coach shared an inspiring grounding exercise in a group coaching call. The demonstration of the power of words, language, and descriptors was perfect for a session when each of us was given the opportunity to tell our story. It’s really about creating a powerful affirmation mantra. Most useful for moments of self-doubt.
- First, write down 2 powerful words that describe your strengths. These are qualities you have, like compassionate, brave, influential, inspirational…pick your own.
- Next, pick 3 qualities you aspire to have. Something you may be working towards. Same kind of words.
- Now, in front of each word, write “I am grateful that I am…”
- Use these phrases as your mantra or daily affirmation.
I thought this was a simple yet beautiful exercise in visualization. The power of manifestation is real. Living your life as you envision turns aspirations into reality.
Many thanks to Tiffany from It’s Me, Lady G for the inspiration.
