Today's show is about affirmations. What is an affirmation? Well, according to dictionarycom, an affirmation is the act or an instance of affirming, state of being affirmed, declaration of the truth of something. The weekly affirmation spoken will be short, but it will be full for your thoughts, heart, mind and soul. Carrie's affirmation comes from a beautiful sister named Tarish Clark, and she created a 30 card affirmation deck called I am everything. It's such a beautiful set of cards and I would love to kick off our affirmation Wednesday by reading one of them. So today's reading comes from card number two in the deck and it is called I am free. And the card reads I release myself from the thoughts and feelings that have held me back Any guilt, shame, self-doubt, and fear that I harbor. I release Today. I am free. And this affirmation is not only for me, but it is for you also. Wherever you are in your life, remember you are free. Do not let anyone or anything no longer hinder your growth because, my sister, you are free.
