Today’s Affirmation; I, Stephanie, (insert your name here if you like) have a chance today to use the stress in my life as a tool for my continued growth to be the happiest lady it is possible for me to be. It is exciting for me to realize that the quality of my life is directly effected by my ability to manage the stress that is natural in every life. It is up to me to invest time in learning the best ways for me to manage the daily worries of my heart with logical thoughts, meditation and deep breathing. My journey to self love depends on my ability to manage my emotions in ways that create in my being, much calmness, hope and possibilities. I view the daily mishaps, mistakes that I make and accidents caused by gravity as opportunities to exercise my muscles of forgiveness and acceptance. When other people do things that have a chance to trigger me to upset or self pity I nurture my heart with compassion, giving my emotional five year old heart, much empathy, compassion, kindness and patience so that I am able to comfort myself in the hopes of responding to stressful situations from a place of compassionate responding. Thank you for the moments you were here with me today. Thank you for loving your mistakes today. I Love You. :~)
Today I am grateful for getting my big pot of chicken soup finished last night it was yummy I added poblano peppers, sweet potato, onion, celery and I even poured off an extra litre of broth to save for some squash soup I am going to make soon, for the amazing little sweet Sugar Pumpkins that volunteered in the compost pile this year, we have received from nature at least 20 Sugar Pumpkins from just one plant, it is amazing how nature keeps nurturing us year after year and for my belief that I can increase my emotional intelligence with practice, forethought and persistence because to be emotionally intelligent to me, helps me in every social interaction of my life, my ability to connect to each person’s heart allow me to be more easy going and patient with everyone, even me. Thank you for stopping by to see me today. Thank you for being patient with yourself today. I Love You. :~)
