Daily Affirmations

By



Feeling down on yourself?  Here are a few simple affirmations to pick you right up!
Affirmations are powerful tools to keep you feeling positive, motivated and upbeat. Start clearing your head of negative thoughts and emotions with these simple yet powerful messages. Speak them into existence and watch your life transform.

You can be, do, or have anything you set your mind to.  The Bible tells us that: When you make a decision and declare it, it will be carried out and the light will shine on your life. All you have to do is "think higher and feel deeper".

Soon, you will start to vibrate on a higher altitude that is bound to change your attitude, thus, your life... Pick anyone of these to start, or create your own.

Before You Begin:

First, find a quiet moment and relax your breathing and your body. Then close your eyes and let go of any or all expectations you have of yourself and/or others. Next, put yourself in the mind frame and vibrational energy you want to feel. Now, fill your belly with air like a balloon, from your nostrils. Hold for few seconds allowing the fresh air to circulate in the womb. After a few seconds, expel the air out slowly through pursed lips; while squeezing your kegel until your bellybutton touches your spine. Stay focused on the rise and fall of your belly. You may choose to use visualization as you wish. Repeat the breathing exercise until you feel completely relaxed. Slowly open your eyes and come back to reality. Begin reading/repeating your chosen affirmations.

How to create your own affirmations:

  • Always use the personal pronoun “I, to make it more personal.
  • Use positive action words such as: (I can… I am… I choose… I deserve…) 
  • Keep it present as if it is your current reality... (e.g.: I am in good physical health. *even if you are not*) The trick is to re-program your mind and change your mindset. Remember, what you think, you become.
  • Turn your negative statements into positive ones. (No more: I can't, I don't, I am afraid...)
  • Choose affirmations that are best for the moment. 
  • Write down your affirmations and post them where you can see them on a daily basis. 
  • Say them out loud at least once a day on a regular basis. Look at yourself in the mirror and smile while repeating them.
Affirmations are encouragements for the soul. Use them daily to invite feel good psyche and get what you want out of life.


Until next time,
Be blessed, be bold, be strong be you!

A Visit to Toronto’s First Black Church: Happy Black History Month

By
Faith is a huge part of Black culture. On the last Sunday of Black History Month, I took the liberty of visiting Toronto’s first Black church and establishment—First Baptist Church.  It was a true jubilee. Rev. Dr. Wendell Gibbs's message was powerful and deeply moving. He reminded us of our identity in Christ, declaring, “Black history didn’t begin with slavery or emancipation but in the Genesis beginning.” He also spoke of “The anguish of our ancestors… those who died [so we could have] peace… May humanity never again perpetrate such injustice against humanity. [And] we… vow[ed] to uphold this.” The service reached a pivotal moment when the congregation joined the choir in singing: I’m no longer a slave to fear I am a child of God. Founded in 1826 by formerly enslaved people who sought refuge in Canada, First Baptist Church has long stood as a pillar of the Black community. While the original congregation laid its foundation nearly two centuries ago, the current building, complet...

A Personal Sunday Reflection on the Three Stages of Life: Rest in Peace, My Brother.

By
A personal Sunday reflection of my brother’s life and legacy, in what I call the three stages of life—birth and development, the pursuit and the chase, and sickness and dying— illuminating the gift of mortality. Rest in peace, my brother. Life often demands reflection in its quietest moments. It's no wonder some people are always busy. The recent passing of my brother, Donovan, brought me to one of these moments—confronted by the stillness of an early morning ten days after his departure, I had an epiphany . In that silence, I considered the arc of life, its inevitable stages, and the truths that define us. From the beginning of birth to the vigour of youth and its pursuits of adulthood, to the finale—the fragility of aging and dying. I contemplated that life unfolds in three distinct but interconnected phases: birth and development, the pursuit, and sickness and dying.   Birth and Development: The Foundation of Self Life begins with hope and infinite potential. Each birth represe...
