July Affirmations 2025

“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.” -Carl Rogers

As I sit to write this, I just had a revelation. I’d gotten so good at avoiding unwanted feelings - well - so good at shoving them down and convincing myself that they weren’t there. Feels the same in my mind. Anyhow, I’d gotten so good at that avoidance game that I was fundamentally unaware of my genuine likes, dislikes, and desires. As I sit in this moment, I am more aware of who I am and what I want than I’ve ever been and it took a lot of discomfort (discomfort in itself + the discomfort of honestly feeling that discomfort) to get here.

Now if I were to zoom into a version of Me, hell, from even a few weeks ago, that version, in the experience of discomfort, might feel very far from my ideal life. That version isn’t yet seeing that it is the discomfort and the awareness of that discomfort that is putting Me much more in the right direction than ever before. Hiding what I was feeling and gritting my way through the low moments was never going to get Me there. Breathing through the low moments, and seeing them for what they are has helped Me know how I want to continue to shape my life.

If this thought resonates with You, let’s use these affirmations together to keep us grounded in the wholeness of our experience as we continue to shape our best lives:

I am the master of my fate.

All moments are in service to Me and my ideal life.

By choosing how I respond to life, I shape who I am.

I find satisfaction in the process of learning and growing.

I am actively creating the life I most want.

My dislikes realign Me.

I am in the right direction.

Sending You so much Love this July and beyond. Keep growing, keep becoming.
