Quote of the week:

"The dreams of yesterday are the hopes of today and the reality of tomorrow." - Robert Goddard

Hello friends!

My whole life has changed suddenly! I started practicing daily affirmations and when I tell you, everything has changed. It has!

I used to feel so terrible on the inside about a lot of things that we'll get through as we progress through more newsletters, but it's been hard for me for a long time.

I've been through a lot, but one thing has remained consistent - I've always been there for myself.

I love who I've become, but the road to get here did not come without its challenges.

Positive affirmations and practicing meditation daily have completely changed my thoughts, my progress toward my goals, and my overall well-being.

I feel so unstoppable!! It all started when I traveled to San Antonio, Texas, and ate out at a restaurant alone. If you haven't watched the vlog of that experience, you totally should! That was the starting point of the change that I'm feeling.

I was ready to quit my full-time job. I was ready to go ghost and fall off the face of the planet, but something about that trip changed everything for me.

​Click here to watch the San Antonio Travel Vlog. I spent 3 days out there and experienced some things.

Have you ever had a turning-point experience or a life-changing experience that changed everything for the better?

It was a moment where I just got tired of feeling the way I was feeling. I got tired of feeling anxious, sad, stressed, unsure, or whatever negative feeling I was feeling. I was just done! Like, this world is my making.

Last week I started thinking, "If my reality is truly created by my thoughts, then let's change those thoughts. Let's just see what will happen if I try something different this week. What if I practiced those daily meditations and self-love affirmations? What if I listen to my therapist and do some breathwork to calm down my nervous system and anxiety?"

Even after practicing it for a day, my whole life changed. I made the affirmations more real for me. I refused to let myself feel a negative emotion or think a negative thought for more than 5 seconds. I would immediately change my thoughts to something more positive which made me feel better almost immediately.

The practice of changing my thoughts instantly highlighted the fact that I had so many negative thoughts popping off in my mind. I don't let myself sit in misery any longer. I immediately think, "Everything in my life is perfect." "I am safe, secure, loved and adored."

Thinking those two affirmations alone caused things to shift around me. Things would just fall into my lap. I truly felt like people started to show more love towards me. I felt successful all week despite crazy things happening.

Everything in my life is perfect.

I'll list the affirmations I've resonated with this week in a section below.

Nonetheless, I've become a different person. I feel clean on the inside and it's GREAT! I'll continue to practice daily affirmations and meditation and let you know how it goes as we get through more newsletters.

Something worth telling:

This section contains something I've been burning to tell you!

Do you know how to play an instrument? I'm primarily a flute player and last week I had a performance with a choir. It was pretty cool being a soloist again.

I've been playing flute since I was 12 and have not stopped performing since I started. It's so cool!! Playing music with other people is so much fun!

I would love to know if you're a musician as well! Are you?

I vlogged my week last week so be sure to check out my YouTube channel if you're interested! There are a few clips of me practicing in there.

​Self-Care Benefits That Will Change Your Life​

As mentioned previously, I am on a journey of self-discovery and self-love. I want to live out my best life and do everything that I can to make sure that happens. There is no reason why other people can live the life they desire and I can't.

What am I going to do about it?

Everything I can!

What's next?

This section gives you an idea of what's coming up this week.

This week is a big one for my full-time job! I have a huge performance coming up that highly reflects me as an educator. I also want to remain consistent with everything that I've decided to dedicate my time to.

These things include getting 2 videos up on YouTube per week, a blog post, and another newsletter, BUT I'm also leaving for Disney World on Saturday so we'll see how it all goes.

I'll be sure to let you know how it all goes in the next newsletter on Sunday.

If you made it to this point of the newsletter, you're amazing! Thank you for your continued support!

Have a great Sunday!

Cheers!
