August Affirmations 2025

“To know how to wonder and question is the first step of the mind toward discovery.” -Louis Pasteur

Lately, I’ve been feeling the nudge to journal more. More seems wild considering how much I already do journal, but I think this “more” is not more in quantity, but more in substance. More honesty, more curiosity. Unchecked, the practice of journaling could turn into just another item to check off the list. The point, after all, is self discovery.

Turns out, you never really learn all there is to know about yourself - we’re changing everyday. How often do you question what you think you know about yourself? If our tastebuds change over the years, surely so do our values, our beliefs, our commitments. How do you know if the programming to your autopilot system isn’t outdated? This is the nudge I’ve been getting.

As of this moment, I haven’t quite responded to the nudge. I’m identifying, but not questioning. I think once I get to the questions, the curiosity of it all, this is going to be a game changer. I guess a part of me is nervous of certain questions, hence the reason I haven’t made it to that step quite yet - but this is how I know there are juicy things to uncover. The trick is to get excited about being curious, it’s so easy (for me at least) to block out the benefits of curiosity with judgement.

Send a prayer up for me, I know this is work worth doing and I know there’s healing on the other side of it. Just gotta stop being a little bitch :). Okay, hopefully these affirmations will help me, and you too if you need it:

I am curious about myself and my experience.

I am open to my evolution.

I am grateful for change.

I am eager to learn.

It is safe for me to self-explore.

Accepting all parts of myself heals me.

I Love myself unconditionally.

My half-birthday is this month, so being called to look within myself deeply, to check in, and to tap in - it feels pretty timely. Cheers to uncovering ourselves. Have a happy August, Dear Ones.
