20 mantras to elevate your mind.




Are you a sucker for a good motivational quote? #same.


As much as I love to write, when I'm faced with a challenge it can be hard to find the words to articulate my feelings. I recently started a morning meditation and have found mantras to be an amazing way for me to connect with myself and set intentions for the day.


I've created a list of declarations that ignite my soul and reflect the mama and person I want to be.


Here are a list of my personal mantras / intentions that help ground me in parenthood, partnership and my profession:


I speak from the heart to nurture honest, joyful relationships.


I listen without judgement, and seek to understand.


I acknowledge and challenge bias in myself and my community.


I offer praise in moments big and small.


I lead by example, empowering others and bringing them along.


I create collaboratively, because creativity loves to be shared.


I prioritize with purpose, and release what no longer serves me.


I am open, ready and willing to give and receive love.


I am happy in my body, it is strong and beautiful.


I have everything I need to live abundantly.


I pause and reflect so that I can nurture my inner peace.


I give voice to my dreams, and celebrate those of others.


I acknowledge effort, and inspire persistence.


I look for the lesson in hardship, and grow from challenges.


I seek progress over perfection.


I am the architect of my life.


I am courageous and I stand up for myself and others.


I am grateful for the present moment.


I am exactly where I am meant to be.


I am the best mama for my family.
