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…

Do you know that on average women think 85,000 thoughts a day—with upwards of 95% of those thoughts being negative? YIKES!

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…

Healthy Sleep
We all know how important it is to get plenty of sleep but we also know that we are not all getting all the Zzz’s we need. Sleep is important!

Create a restful environment Create a room that’s ideal for sleeping. Often, this means cool, dark and quiet. Exposure to light might make it more challenging to fall asleep.
