Directions :

Identify: 

1️⃣ 5 things you SEE (e.g. a lamp, a plant, your hands)*  

2️⃣ 4 things you TOUCH (e.g. your shirt fabric, a pen, your phone)  

3️⃣ 3 things you HEAR *(e.g. birdsong, traffic, your breath)*  

4️⃣ 2 things you SMELL (e.g. coffee, fresh air)

5️⃣ 1 thing you TASTE (e.g. water, lip

balm)

Remember 🌱:  

“Wherever you are, you are here. And here is enough.”

P.S. Take these activities at your own pace...progress, not perfection, is the goal. 💚

"Affirmations are seeds, plant them daily and watch your confidence grow."

This is such a perfect way of putting it.

It includes the fact that affirmations are not an instant cure. But with time and work they can achieve great things. This is positive without setting up unrealistic expectations.

It is also includes the fact that Affirmations start off small and hard and we should see encouragement, not discouragement in that.

@Clio9876 Absolutely! Affirmations aren't going to work overnight but if one stays consistent with them, overtime they will see the true and real benefits! Being aware that it'll take a lot of time an effort to feel like it's working would definitely help you in setting realistic expectations/goals. Same thing for starting small. 

I'm glad you enjoyed the quote! Sending light and love your way! 🫂💞
