Affirmation Monday

I'm working through The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron.  It's a truly wonderful book.  I definitely think a key to finding myself is through my art and creativity.  Part of the assignments involve writing in a kind of journal every morning.  After writing, the instruction is to find any blurts--hurtful or negative things you say about yourself.  Then you turn the blurt into a positive affirmation.  It's a lovely idea.

What I'd like to do is start my week with some of the affirmations I created.  So here are a few of my favorites from last week:


Being vulnerable is good--it is living.

I AM good enough.

I am worthy and deserving of happiness.

I'm a very good Mom.

I can change.  I will change.



I'm going to make these a part of my life this week.  Feel free to borrow them or create your own.  We need to stop beating ourselves up, and begin to see ourselves as the truly beautiful people we are.
