I Don’t Do Affirmations… I Do This Instead ⚓
Hey Beautiful!💛
I was thinking about something this morning while I was making my coffee…
I don’t really do affirmations.
You know, the ones you’re supposed to repeat over and over hoping they magically stick? Yeah… those never quite felt like me.
But what does work for me?
Mantras.
Not in a “say it 50 times perfectly” kind of way…
More like little reminders I come back to throughout the day. Especially when I feel myself drifting.
This year, my word is Anchor ⚓
So throughout the day, I’ll catch myself and think:
“Come back to Anchor.”
“Stay anchored in this moment.”
“Anchor yourself before you react.”
The words might shift depending on what’s going on…
But the intention stays the same—to steady myself, to stay present, to not get pulled in every direction.
Because let’s be honest… life will pull you.
Your thoughts, your to-do list, other people’s energy—it’s a lot some days.
And that’s when I come back to it…Anchor. ⚓
Not perfectly. Not all at once.
Just one gentle reminder at a time.
So if affirmations haven’t really been your thing either, maybe try this approach. Something flexible, real, and that actually supports you in the moment.
💬 I’d love to hear if you have a Word for the Year and are using it like this...
