Summary
Meditation to start your day using an affirmation, "I start today with peace and ease". Be guided in a meditation using an affirmation to retrain your thoughts first thing in the morning. My challenge to you is to repeat this affirmation first thing in the morning every single day this week. It will help you to manage stress triggers throughout your day. Pick just one area you want to improve in your life this week. Commit to starting your day each morning visualizing yourself improving this area of your life.. This is part 1 of a 7-Part Meditations to Start Your Day Series, Episodes 513-519. As always, you don't have to do the meditation techniques -- they are simply there to help you transition from your busy day to a state of stillness. The techniques also help to calm "monkey mind," when your thoughts continuously interrupt your meditation. For free meditation tools to help you start meditating please head over to my website at www.SipandOm.com, and there you'll find a multitude of free resources to help you on your Meditation Journey. Sample from a selection of resources including: *a Free 100-Day Meditation Quest you can join *a Free Meditation Bundle to get started meditating *a Free Sleep Technique to Sleep Better *a Free Instant Calm Breathing Technique *a Free Guide to Get Started Meditating.

| 0:26.6 | Well, in today's meditation, it is a Monday as I post this meditation, |
| 0:33.6 | and every single Monday you are guided using an affirmation to start your week. |
| 0:40.2 | An affirmation is a positive statement. |
| 0:44.2 | And when you repeat it with intention throughout your day, |
| 0:49.1 | can help you to retrain your thoughts. |
| 0:52.1 | And according to research, over 80% of the thoughts we think each day |
| 0:58.2 | are negative and 90% of those are repetitive. So if you start using affirmations, you may |

| 2:36.0 | As you sit down to meditate, it's pretty hard to instantly go into a deep meditation. |
