Mantras To Live By
A mantra is "a word or phrase that is repeated often or that expresses someone's basic beliefs."
A mantra is a self affirmation that you can repeat & think to yourself. Itcan help you be reflective about your personal thought patterns and work on improving them. Pick 1 or 2 that you want to work on and make a commitment to thinking them this week. Say them to youself when you wake up in the morning and before bed.
Let us know how it goes!You can create your own & share them here. Here are a few for you to start with:
I love myself and accept myself in this moment.
I forgive myself.
Keep your head up & your heart open.
My life is a magical gift.
This too shall pass.
I am strong & vibrant. I bring my unique opinions & world view to everything that I do.
I will accept the change that I cannot change.
Ask yourself "What's really important?"
I started doing this when I transferred to my new school. I was letting what other people say or do control my emotions, and then I would react. I would get hurt and angry. But one day, my colleague told me "Their not important to us." Her words transformed my thoughts and my life. So everyday, when things get tough, I ask myself "What's really important? Are my emotions more important than doing the right thing?" It's not easy...it's a struggle every moment. But it does work. You can overcome your own self-defeating thoughts.
very inspiring, and empowering, thanks for sharing!
