If you've listened to the show for a while, you know I'm a musician, and I'm excited to tell you that the new music you hear in this episode was made by yours truly.

I hope you enjoy it.

Hi friends, and welcome to wake me up.

I'm Tyler your host as always.

I'm so thrilled that you're here with me today.

This week we've been working on trusting yourself.

In yesterday's meditation we practice some self-awareness by learning to listen to your own intuition.

In today's motivation, we'll focus on a few different aspects of trusting yourself,

namely, self-love and self-confidence.

And we'll end with some affirmations designed to help seed those things deeper within you.

If you're still in bed, then I'd recommend starting with Monday's Wake Up and Stretch episode,

which will get you up and going, and then you can come back here to get motivated if you'd like. But wherever you are, whatever you're doing, just pause for a moment.

And bring to mind something that makes you happy to be you.

Perhaps it's an accomplishment you're proud of,

a trait you have, or a skill,

or even a moment where you were uniquely yourself.

Take a deep breath in and fill up with appreciation for yourself.

And then exhale and just let it all go.

Once more now, even deeper this time,

inhaling, filling with appreciation, and then exhale, release.

Now return to whatever you were doing and go about your morning routine.

Whatever would make your morning a good one, I recommend you do that.
