Good morning,
Dear caregiver.
Today's affirmations are best practiced first thing in the morning if you're just waking up or if you have a moment to yourself before your day begins.
So stretch out your arms over your head and take a deep inhale and exhale.
Inhale and exhale.
Inhale and exhale.
Sigh if you have to.
And scan through your body for any uncomfortable,
Tight or stiff areas.
And just breathe into them.
Release any tension and be sure that you're filling your lungs and body with oxygen.
We're going to go over some affirmations to start our day off with the best intentions with a crystal clear focus on what we want to achieve and how we want to be today.
So you can repeat these to yourself in your mind or simply listen.
Let's begin.

Take a deep breath and repeat it to yourself.

Exhale.
Comparisons do not serve me.
I notice when I compare myself to parents and I quickly let them go.
Comparisons do not serve me.
I notice when I compare myself to other parents and I quickly let them go.

And exhale with a sigh.
Rotate your wrists.
Give your arms a stretch.
Shake your ankles.
Rotate them if that feels good.
Stretch your legs.
Just take a moment to feel your body,
Any sensations,
Any emotions coming up,
And smile.
I wish you the best day.
