I am confident in the divine plan for my life
I am in my power
I am worry-free
I am loving awareness
I choose to get out of my own way and let the Universe bless me
I release energy that is not mine and that doesn’t serve me
I surrender to the flow
I free myself from all negative attachments
The Universe is conspiring in my favor
My purpose is to simply enjoy life
Peace is embedded into everything I think, say and do
I transmute all negativity and pain into love and healing
I breathe deeply and anchor myself to the present moment
I alchemize my doubts and fear into power, compassion and strength
I am confident and calm
I face my fears boldly and courageously
 I prosper everywhere I go
I am a child of the Living God
I inspire others everywhere I go
The Universe is always on my side
Asé
