One of the tools to help us Rise out of the Ashes is daily affirmations. We must reframe our thought patterns so we can soar above the negative thoughts that have plagued us for years. We have been raised to believe that Monday, the start of a new week, after a relaxing (or wild) weekend, when we are “forced” to go back to work to make a living, is the worst day of the week.

I’d like to change that for us. Let’s start each week off with a bit of motivation and encouragement, gliding on the thermals of inspiration.

If you’re struggling and need encouragement on a specific topic, search for it on the list below. Also feel free to check out all these images, and others, bundled together at Inspirational Quotes on this website.

May Mondays become the catalyst to start a week filled with love, connection, and joy.
