I take a deep breath and I count one to ten

I fill up my lungs with fresh air and inner strength

I feel my heart beating steadily in my chest

I fill my heart with gratitude for this very moment

I am here and I exist and that is all that will ever matter

I hold my inner child close as we are enveloped in this bright light of God

This light so bright they can’t see us or come near us

And this light is mine, and mine forever

There is beauty in being me, in this very moment

There is beauty in my experience of life

Every day counts

I smell the fresh air and I listen to the birds sing

A bad day does not equate a bad life

A bad experience does not equate a bad life

A bad moment does not equate a bad life

I choose to observe without absorbing

I choose to honor my feelings because all of it is valid

My joy and my pain and my anger and my grief

All of you are worthy and heard and valid

I see you and I choose you

I choose to hold you with equal care

I choose to regulate my nervous system

I choose to be tender and graceful

I choose to maintain my high vibrational energy

I choose to keep my crown on at all times

I choose happiness

I choose love

I choose joy

I choose patience

I choose discipline

I choose self control

I choose to slow down

I choose to observe

I choose to count to ten

I choose to count my blessings

I choose to smell my flowers

I choose to breathe…

… and move on.
