Hello,
I'm Jacqui.
Today is all about believing in yourself,
And we're going to do that with some affirmations.
Affirmations are like superhero powers in words.
When we say them,
They remind us how brave and amazing we are.
Let's start with a deep breath in and out.
Breathe in and out.
I'm going to say some short phrases and then I'll pause so you can repeat them.
Ready?
Say after me.
I believe in myself.
I am brave like a lion.
I try new things.
Even if they feel a little scary.
Now,
Imagine you're putting on a superhero cape.
It can be whatever colour you like.
Tie it around your neck and say after me.
When worries come,
I zap them away with my superhero power.
Next,
Feel your feet on the ground and imagine roots growing down from your feet into the earth,
Like the roots of a tall tree.
And say,
I am steady and strong.
I am unique.
There is just one me.
And I am special.
Even when I make mistakes,
I am still amazing.
What I have to say matters.
Now,
Take one more deep breath in.
Give a big smile and say,
My magic power is believing in myself.
Well done.
You've filled yourself with confidence.
Make sure you take your magic power of self-belief with you wherever you go today.
