Weekly Affirmations

Often some people who have anxiety can feel it as soon as they wake up.

The alarm has gone off, they pick up their phones and start looking through emails, socials, reading news etc. then there’s the other responsibilities, kids, partner, pets.

Your nervous system doesn’t switch from sleep to full performance mode as soon as you open your eyes. It needs a softness, a moment or two to adjust, a nice easy transition.

Here’s a gentle affirmation that can help start your day the right way.

My Nervous System is allowed to wake up gently.

Now that might mean staying in bed for an extra two minutes and breathing slowly. It might mean no scrolling first thing, it might mean giving your body a stretch before you speak.

Being gentle with yourself doesn’t mean you’re being lazy, it means you’re allowing yourself to regulate your nervous system.

When you let your body wake up gradually you set the tone for steadiness instead of urgency and anxiety has far less to feed on.

Try this affirmation every morning for the next week. Before you reach for your phone take a slow breath and repeat the affirmation quietly to yourself three times.

Small changes can have a powerful impact.

The ultimate duo for anxiety relief

What if you could combine two powerful techniques to help you finally feel like yourself again?

That’s exactly what happens when you pair silent counselling with hypnotherapy.

Here’s how it works

Silent Counselling is a gentle yet effective method that focuses on releasing emotional blockages stored deep within your body.

By working with your body’s natural energy systems, it clears out the stress and anxiety that’s been weighing you down, without even needing to speak about it.

Add in some Hypnotherapy.

Once the emotional triggers have been released, hypnotherapy helps to rewire your subconscious mind. It replaces anxious thoughts with feelings of calm, confidence, and self-belief, creating a strong foundation for long term change.

Why it works

Together, these methods create a powerful synergy. Silent counselling clears out the clutter, while hypnotherapy fills the space with empowering new thoughts and feelings.

It’s a holistic approach that tackles anxiety from every angle. The mind, body, and energy.

Imagine this. Waking up with a clear mind, feeling lighter, calmer, and ready to take on the day.

It’s possible.

Are you ready to experience the difference?

Your thoughts can be like dropping a pebble in a pond. They can have a rippling effect.

Your mind likes to be right, so if you had a negative thought, your mind would try to prove it, having that rippling effect…How many times have you thought you couldn't do something, you find one reason and then you just seem to keep finding more, it's that's rippling effect. You may not even notice it as it's done at a subconscious level.

So imagine how it would feel if you had dropped a positive thought into your little pond, the mind would want to prove its right, so your thoughts would change and cause a new, positive ripple.

Thoughts create feelings, that create your action and ultimately the outcome.

Give it a go, drop a positive pebble in your pond.

Mindset Shift Ideas

Time for an upgrade

Today I want you to create time for two minutes of stillness. No distractions, just you and your thoughts.

Then gently ask yourself

What belief about myself feels outdated now?

What belief would be better reflecting who I am becoming?

It might be something like “I can’t change, I’ve always been this way” but there are many times in your life when you have changed something. You might have moved house, moved job, changed your name. So saying “I can’t change” is outdated. Because you’ve shown that you can change.

We all carry old narratives, old stories that we tell ourselves.

“I’m not confident”,
“I always mess things up”
“I’m just an anxious person”

At some stage in your life those thoughts may have felt true and they might have helped protect you in some way. But to grow you have to review the story.

Are you still that version of you? Probably not. You might have quietly evolved, even though you might have spoke to yourself as if you haven’t.

So choose just one belief that feels too small for who you are now. Then upgrade it. Don’t upgrade it to something you feel is unrealistic, upgrade it to one that’s a bit more accurate, more supportive and aligned to who you are now.

Then once you’ve done that write it down and read it daily for the next week.

Your thoughts shape your actions, your actions shape your outcomes.

Thought. Feeling. Action. Outcome. Something many of my clients will have heard me say at some point.

Save this post and revisit it when you find the time today to sit in that stillness.

Happiness comes from within.

I was working with a client recently and I had asked them to think of something that made them feel happy, full of love and joy.

They couldn’t think of anything.

They said that they don’t think they’d ever really experienced happiness. They had thought that they had found it on a few occasions but when we spoke it was more about being “happy when”.

For example if you’re looking for a new relationship and you think you’ll be happy when you get it. You might, but you might not. You’ll only get it if you have happiness already within you.

So you can be happy and have (fill in the blank).

Don’t live a life of being happy when you get the new job, new partner, new car, new house. Live a life of being happy and having them.

To find the happiness you want look inside. If you can’t think of a memory, a place, a person or thing that makes you feel happy I’m sure you can imagine what happiness would look like. Maybe it’s a colour that when you think about it, it gives you those warm fuzzy feelings or it may be you’ve watched a movie and saw the stars having those feel good moments, just visualise and imagine that was you and see how that would feel.

There are ways to help you find some happiness inside.

What makes you get those warm fuzzy feelings? For me it’s remembering my grandson being born.

Weekly Affirmations

I’ve created a series of affirmations that you can say weekly to help shift your mindset.

Anxiety usually creates a sense of rush, a feeling that everything must be solved immediately.

If you are rushing around crazy today just take a few moments to yourself, take a few deep breaths and repeat this affirmation 3 times.

Today, I choose steadiness over urgency.

If anxiety rises later then use this one.

I am safe right now.

You don’t have to race through today to get through. Slow and steady is safe.

Follow for weekly affirmations to help reduce anxiety.

It’s time to let it go

You probably already know how much anxiety can cloud your mind and the effects it can have on your body, things like agitation, palpitations, worry, fear...the list can be endless.

How would you like to have more feelings of calm, relaxation, be fearless, more content. The list is equally as endless.

I may not have a magic pill to offer you but during a session with me we will work on what the main cause of the issue was. We will look into how that made you feel and how we can change that feeling by replacing it with something much more happy and positive.

If you want more information please contact me.

I have a few new followers here so let me tell you a wee bit about me.

Hi I’m Marina,

I love jelly sweets, walking and my grandkids, obviously my kids too, oh and Barry, best not forget him.

I’m from Leven, but have lived in Glenrothes for40 years.

I have 2 favourite quotes

“Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I’m possible” and “Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire”

I am an award winning Clinical Hypnotherapist and Silent Counsellor.

I have been a therapist for 13 years and I work face to face with clients as well as online.

I specialise in working with anxiety and trauma. The reason I chose to niche in my field is because I know what it’s like, I’ve experienced anxiety and trauma, so I know first hand how changing your mindset and dealing with your past can help you move forward in life.

I work with people who feel overwhelmed, on edge or stuck in constant overthinking, even when life looks fine on the outside.

My work focuses on helping you feel calmer, more confident and back in control without having to talk through painful memories or relive past experiences.

I use a unique combination of Hypnotherapy, Silent Counselling & Havening ®️. These approaches work beautifully together to calm the nervous system, create a sense of safety and gently release what has been holding you back, all whilst in a relaxed and supportive environment.

This approach can help with
Ongoing anxiety and chronic worry
Panic attacks and emotional overwhelm
Trauma responses without retelling the story
Intrusive thoughts and overthinking
Low confidence and self doubt
Feeling disconnected or emotionally drained

Clients often notice benefits such as:

A deep sense of calm and relief
Feeling more in control of thoughts and emotions
Increased confidence and inner stability
Better sleep and clearer focus
Reduced emotional triggers
A more positive and grounded outlook

My aim is simple. It’s to help you feel like yourself again, without pushing, probing or reopening old wounds.

I also help with phobias & weight management.

If that sounds like the kind of support you have been looking for, then let me guide you.

A Gentle Reset

Before you scroll any further, just pause for a moment.

Place your hand on your heart. Take 3 slow breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth, and let your shoulders drop.

Now ask yourself quietly

What feels heavy right now that doesn’t need to be carried this week?

What would lightening the load actually look like?

Sometimes the weight we feel isn’t the situation, it’s the pressure we put on ourselves. The expectation we have to handle everything, we have to fix everything or that we have to be everything for everyone around us.

But you are allowed to put something down.

It might be a belief that you have, or a responsibility you feel can’t wait, it could be an internal argument you keep replaying or a standard that is simply too high.

Take a moment and write down one thing that you can release, even if it’s temporarily, not forever, just for one week.

Then notice what shifts when you stop gripping so tightly on to it.

These small mindset changes can create powerful emotional freedom over time.

You might want to save this post and come back to it later when you give yourself time to think what that thing is you are ready to put down.

You are not broken and you do not need fixed.

You just need to learn self love, self acceptance and an opportunity to grow and learn from what’s happened in your life.

I used to let it eat me up inside and it would create so much anxiety, so much self doubt in myself. I never believed I was good enough or that I would ever succeed at anything, which is why I think I continued to do learning, to prove to myself that I was capable. I’d believed I was stupid.

You see no matter what you tell yourself, your subconscious mind will believe it. If you tell yourself you are “broken”, it’ll believe you. If you tell yourself “you’re stupid” it’ll believe you. If you tell yourself you are anxious, it’ll believe you. If you tell yourself you are who you are because of your past, guess what!!

I am who I am because of my past. Because I was not going to let it beat me down, not going to let it make me stay unhappy, insecure, afraid, depressed. No way. I am who I am because I learnt to take the things life has thrown at me and turn them around. I saw the teachings in them.

Life doesn’t have to stay crap, you can turn it around. You can change how you feel about the things that happened in your life.

When you’re ready to do that get in touch.

I am…

The start of many affirmations begins with “I am…”.

Affirmations aren’t about you pretending that everything is fine, they’re actually a nice gentle way to help guide your nervous system into a safer state.

When anxiety shows up it’s because your mind is scanning for a threat. The affirmations help to interrupt that thought pattern, It’s like when you leave the room and forget what you were going to say or do, so breaks that negative loop. What they also do is send a calmer new message.

Your subconscious mind takes everything literally so when you start to use affirmations and tell yourself that you are safe, calm, amazing, whatever positive you want to use to replace the negative self talk with, it will accept it as part of who you are.

Statements that follow “I am” are powerful. But you shouldn’t force them. Start them slowly breathe in between each one so that your body can catch up with the words. If you say “I am calm and safe” then say it 3 times but emphasise a different word each time. For example

“I AM calm and safe”
“I am CALM and safe”
“I am calm AND safe”

The way we say it has different meanings.

Every morning I tap the side of my hand (because in silent counselling this point helps release feelings of holding onto negative thoughts and emotions) and repeat a few affirmations whilst I’m in the shower to help set me up for the day. You can use them at anytime throughout the day as well.

So when you use affirmations regularly you’re building a feeling of safely.

It’s not about trying to convince yourself of something unrealistic, it’s about reminding your body that it doesn’t need to stay on high alert.

Some affirmations you can say are

“I am safe, calm & relaxed”
“I can handle this one step at a time”

Do you use affirmations? What affirmation do you say regularly, drop in the comments an affirmation that can help someone today.

Transformations - Transforming Anxiety

Marina specialise in helping men & women releasing anxiety. Imagine a life without anxiety, being free from the emotional and physical pain that it brings, so that you can be more confident, calm, relaxed and the best possible version of you.
