Good morning and welcome to wake me up.

The podcast where morning People Are Made.

This is part two of a two-part series that's designed to help you choose happy thoughts.

In part one, we practiced creating some separation between ourselves and our thoughts.

Remember, we are not our thoughts.

Thoughts are just the happenings of our brain.

You get to choose which thoughts you keep, and that's what we'll practice today. Now I want to jump right in today. There's a beautiful day ahead, so let's go ahead and get it started.

You can just listen to my voice as we begin this day and everyone wakes up in their own way and you can do it however works best for you.

If you'd like to follow along with me, then maybe you start really easy today.

Just by opening your eyes.

That's all you have to your back, place your hands on your chest and enjoy that rise and fall of your breath.

Today, let's do a few simple affirmations here, while we're still in bed.

The brain is particularly suggestible first thing in the morning, so we're going to suggest some positivity.

And you can just repeat after me. My thoughts do not define me.

I have the power to live a happy life.
