We also talk about how breathwork can help calm your nervous system and lower your pain, and how YOU have the power to impact the way you feel and heal your body.

Affirmations aren’t a new concept. You’ve undoubtedly heard about them and maybe even tried them. But if you’re like me and many of the clients I’ve coached, affirmations can feel disingenuous and dare I say, even “fake.” Plus, if what you’re affirming is in big contrast to your current reality, your brain’s B.S. radar can put up some big walls of resistance. If this sounds like you, or even if you love affirmations and use them, this episode is going to give you 3 specific steps on how to make affirmations feel genuine, empowering, move you to take ACTION in your life, AND get your brain on board.
I hope you listen and even more importantly, I hope you take action and utilize using affirmations in this way in your life!
