Now before our episode begins, here's a quick word from our sponsors. Hello and welcome to Wake Me Up. I'm Tyler, your host, and I'm so grateful that you've joined me here today. This week, we've been talking about the idea that life itself is a practice. My friend, life is not a one-time event that happens to us.
Starting point is 00:00:42 Rather, it's an ongoing process that requires constant attention and cultivation. We must constantly work on improving ourselves and above all, understanding ourselves. This practice of life is not something that's limited to a simple. specific time or place. It's integrated into every aspect of our daily lives. So by starting to view life as a practice, we can learn to approach every situation with mindfulness, acceptance, and a commitment to personal growth and development. Through this, we begin to see life more as an art and less as a singular goal that we have to accomplish. Because, because truly the goal is accomplished in living every day.
Starting point is 00:01:35 And today, we're back for some positive affirmations to help seed these ideas a bit deeper in our minds. So let's go ahead and turn to our affirmations. If you're starting this episode from bed, then use this moment to roll over and climb out of bed. It's time to get another beautiful day started. and you can do these affirmations in any way you like. You can simply listen along while you make your breakfast or brush your teeth.
Starting point is 00:02:08 You can repeat them out loud or in your mind. Or for the deepest experience, you can get into a meditative state by finding a comfortable position and closing your eyes. But no matter how you choose to do these affirmations, let's begin with a deep breath. So inhale and feel. all the way up, hold at the top, and then exhale and release. Fantastic.
Starting point is 00:02:47 Now, let's begin with our affirmations. I am calm and composed in difficult situations. I am steady in turbulent times. I accept the reality of all situations, and I adapt to them with ease. I am in control of my thoughts and emotions. I am resilient. I focus on what is within my control. I let go of what is beyond my control.
Starting point is 00:04:26 I embrace challenges as opportunities for growth. I trust in my ability to handle whatever comes my way. I choose to practice living fully every day. I am strong and capable of overcoming any obstacle. I am patient and trust that things will work out in the end. I am grateful for both the good and bad moments in life. I choose to respond to difficult situations with kindness and compassion. I am steady through every phase of life.
Starting point is 00:06:32 I am open-minded and willing to learn from every experience. I am able to thrive in good times and bad times. All right, fantastic. Let's do all of those one more time through. I am calm and composed in difficult situations. I am steady in turbulent times. I accept the reality of all situations, and I adapt to them with ease.
Starting point is 00:07:46 I am in control of my thoughts and emotions. I am resilient. I focus on what is within my control. I let go of what is beyond my control. I embrace challenges as opportunities for growth. I trust in my ability to handle whatever comes my way. I choose to practice living fully every day. I am strong and capable of overcoming any obstacle.
Starting point is 00:09:47 I am patient and trust that things will work out in the end. I am grateful for both the good and bad moments in life. I choose to respond to difficult situations with kindness and compassion. I am steady through every phase of life. I am open-minded and willing to learn from every experience. I am able to thrive in good times and bad times. All right, that finishes our affirmations for today. Let's conclude in the same way we started with a deep breath.
Starting point is 00:11:28 So inhale, fill all the way into your belly, hold, and then end up. Exhale and release. Just let all of the air go. Well, my friend, I hope the episodes this week have given you a new view towards life. It really is freeing to see life as a practice and not as some end goal to be achieved. Because in practice, we're free to try new things.
Starting point is 00:12:08 We're free to make mistakes. We are there to grow. That's what practice is for. And with this mindset, there is truly nothing you can't accomplish. I want to say again, thanks so much for being here and for being a listener of Wake Me Up. The ideas that I share on this show are ones that I try to put into action in my own life. And I hope you can see that across the history of this show. If you don't believe me, go back and listen to the very first episode.
Starting point is 00:12:44 I can't even make it through 10 seconds listening to my own voice. It's that cringy to me. As embarrassing as it is for me to leave it up, I leave it there for you to remember that life is about showing up, practicing. And if you do those every day, you will grow, you will get better, and you will find fulfillment and happiness,
Starting point is 00:13:11 as I have found showing up to make this podcast for you every week. So thank you for being on this journey with me. I can't wait to see you back here soon. And until then, go out and have an absolutely fantastic day.
