33 Powerful Morning Mantras That Will Transform Your Day

33 Powerful Morning Mantras That Will Transform Your Day

Every morning, I choose a word or phrase, a "mantra," to guide my day.  My daily mantra keeps me tuned into my most important emotional, mental, and spiritual priorities for the next 24 hours.

It also sets the tone for the day.  If life feels frazzled, my mantra reminds me to breathe, relax, or rest.  If I'm feeling unsure, it encourages me to embrace my authority.  If I'm distracted, it nudges me to return to the present moment.

I need more than a single word or phrase of the year because I constantly change as does the world around me.  The perfect personal message on a peaceful day will not necessarily suit me on a chaotic day.

Sometimes the right mantra comes to me immediately when I set my pen to paper. Other times, I'm inspired by my daily 3-card tarot reading.

I record my morning mantra in my bullet journal, on my daily page, using tall lettering and encircling it with the outline of a cloud so it stands out.  Check out a photo of my daily page in this article.
