A Daily Mantra - Choosing Happy.

I often think about prayers, mantras, poems, affirmations ... to me, they are all the same in a way. They are all words that you speak to a greater power than yourself to express a wish or a hope.


To me, while a prayer can be a religious process, for me, it's not - it's just how I describe talking to the universe and expressing my wishes out loud, affirming what my heart and soul want.


I am a firm believer in the law of attraction, and to that end, I wanted to create a prayer or poem to start each day with the right intention. Something catchy that I could memorize and recite when I wake up, to set the tone of my day. It's part of the new, healthy habits that I'm creating for myself.


Here's the one I use now daily, the short version anyway!


Choosing Happy


Today I'm choosing happy.

Because it's up to me.

I take the time to take a breath

Or maybe two or three.


*deep breath*

Inhale

....1

....2

Exhale

....1

....2


Today I live in the moment

Because it's up to me

No worries 'bout tomorrow

As what will be will be


Today I'm choosing awesome

Because that's how I feel.

I celebrate successes

And spread love around me


Today I'm choosing happy.

Because it's up to me.

I take the time to take a breath

Or maybe two or three.


*deep breath*

Inhale

....1

....2

Exhale

....1

....2


* repeat breaths as needed. If you feel you don't have time to take deep breaths, take more of them! ;)


( Note: This is the short version - a longer one will be posted soon! )


I will post some of these from time to time, as I do enjoy writing poetry and I just loooooove a good rhyme. I can't help it. It's catchy. I find it's a great way to recite happy thoughts to yourself and to the universe. I believe in the power of affirmations, so why not throw them in a poem, right? It's great!!!!


More on the law of attraction and affirmations in future posts - trust me, I can't get enough of that topic. Til then, my friends and readers alike, hope you enjoyed the post. And live your best today.


Remember; beyond the fuzzyclouds, there's always clear skies.


Love, MarMar
