“Stay Positive” is actually pretty good advice…
Creating Positive Emotions Sure, it may be easier said than done, but research shows that positive emotions are really good for the body. So… How do we “stay positive”, especially during challenging times? For one, we understand that life is always going to have positive and negatives, happy and sad, good and bad. Next, create the positive emotions you want to feel! Understand that you are the person who generates your emotions with what you think. You are the only one that can control your emotions. Sure, it may be hard to feel excited or cheerful during stressful times, but we can tap into some other emotions – even if…

Positive Affirmations in Stressful Times We are in this together!
How do we practice gratitude and abundance when we feel stressed or overwhelmed? Affirmations are a simple and proven way to rewire our brains. Much like exercise feeds our bodies, affirmations feed our brain positivity. Ever hear the saying, “We are what we think”? This means that your life is dictated largely by your thoughts. But recognizing this is just the first step. You must then translate those thoughts into words – and then into actions. Here are some positive affirmation examples you can try today: “Today, I am content and calm.” “I am blessed with so many talents that I will use today.” “My body is healthy, my mind…

Daily Affirmations
Today I want to talk about affirmations! What we tell ourselves each and every day is so very important for our health and well being. Do you know that on average women think 85,000 thoughts a day—with upwards of 95% of those thoughts being negative? YIKES! In fact, our brains are wired to make these negative thoughts STICK to play over and over and over again, all in the name of survival mode. What are you saying to yourself daily through your words and thoughts? Are they empowering you and uplifting you to dream bigger? Life is going to have struggles and challenges that’s why it’s so important to have…
