This meditation is all about starting to crack open the barrier between the younger version of yourself and who you are today; acknowledging that both are equally important parts of you.Allow this practice to support you in opening your heart up to healing something from your past that you may have unknowingly been holding onto for far too long.

In this episode, I will guide you through a morning affirmation meditation. This meditation is a beautiful way to start your day with confidence and ease.

If you find any affirmations in particular that you enjoy, listen to them again, write them down and read them to yourself every day. Affirmations are even more powerful when we share them with ourself in our own voice.

If you would like to learn how to create your own affirmations (a truly powerful practice), join me on May 29th for Know Your Worth, a confidence building workshop themed around the solar plexus chakra. You can find all the details here: https://www.daniellebalsez.com/workshops

In this episode you will learn all about affirmations. I will cover:

• what is an affirmation;
• why affirmations are so powerful;
• my own experience with affirmations as well as some of my favourite ones to use; and
• how you can begin to integrate affirmations into your life today.

If you would like to learn more about affirmations with me join my upcoming workshop on May 28th called "Know Your Worth" where we will be creating our own affirmations, flowing through a solar plexus chakra Hatha Yoga practice, and integrating it all with a guided meditation.
