Daily Affirmation Challenge, Day 1

As mentioned yesterday, I want to start an affirmation challenge with all of you. This challenge will last for 21 days and then I may start a new one after the first 21 days are up.

Here is what you need: a pen or pencil, a notebook or journal and a mirror.

You will need one affirmation that you will use each day for the next 21 days. You can use your own or use the one I'm going to use.

Affirmation: I love myself unconditionally. I love my body and all of its flaws. I am unique and perfect just the way I am. Love comes to me naturally and I know just how to share my love with those who I come into contact with.

Step 1: Stand or sit in front of the mirror. Chant OM 21 times to help clear your mind and raise your personal vibration. Then say the affirmation out loud 21 times to yourself in the mirror.

Step 2: In your notebook or journal, write Day 1 as the heading, then write your affirmation 21 times.

Step 3: Spend a few minutes in quiet meditation. This can be anywhere from 2-30 minutes, just spend some quiet time alone and enjoy the peace and serenity that washes over you at this time.

Go about the rest of your day. If any negative thoughts come up about your affirmation, stop, acknowledge those feelings and then just let them go. If you need to, repeat your affirmation to yourself a few times to help release the negativity you may have.
