Morning Mantras

Morning Mantras.I started doing Morning mantras (meditation, prayers, affirmations - what ever name you want to put and attach to it) ... I started doing them in August.I was really frustrated with what was happening around me and felt that I had no control - or better yet wasn't certain of where to start to implement changes.I hopped on a call with my fabulous business coach, and she listened. I cried my eyes out for a good ten minuets about my frustrations with work - and she told me I had to change my mindset. And in order to change my mindset I had to make a few changes by implementing mantras.After she told me everything to do, I'll admit - first I felt un easy. Aren't mantras what Muslims do? I can't do that, its not my beliefs. I went online and googled the term mantra.I still wasn't sure about it. So I talked to someone I trust. I told my boyfriend about my day, and the conversation I had with my business coach. I waited to hear the feedback he had to offer. and what he thought of it.We broke down what it really is - which is why you'll see meditation, prayer. For my morning affirmations I chose to focus on what I was struggling to believe. I had to write them in a positive reaffirming state. I paired mine with biblical verses and go over them each morning. Before I decide to take on any type of practice I need to understand what I am doing and why I am doing it. As I continue to reshape my mind, and ensure what I do aligns with my beliefs - I like to do research. Ultimately in doing this I'm searching for results right? I did stop for one month, but since returning I've switched up my affirmations and I am already seeing them come to fruition. Most of what we believe comes from what our parents taught us. We've been conditioned to be a certain way. Our environments tend to shape our upbringing and characteristics. Currently I'm listening to Mindest and I see the connections of human behaviors. Just remember we are all adaptable. We can change.
