When Change Is in the Air: Affirmations to Encourage Enthusiasm, Curiosity & Trust

1. It’s fun when fear turns into love.

As I start pondering a new way to live, I open myself to “signs” that feel like more than coincidences: little notes from the universe pointing me down the path. I listen with love instead of fear. I focus on the loving nature and greater purpose for doing what I must do.

2. I am grateful and excited, all at once.

My gratitude and enthusiasm are not mutually exclusive. I adopt a grateful spirit for what has been and still is here if it has served my growth, expansion, clarity, and self-understanding. I adopt an enthusiastic outlook for what has yet to be shown: this is how I grow, gracefully.

Gratitude coupled with enthusiasm feels like grace.

3. I stop forcing and start receiving.

Even if I am waiting, I can wait with purpose. Even though I may not know, with full clarity, what my purpose is, I am willing to find out. Even though this season of my life is uncomfortable, I respect that every season serves a purpose.

“When we do not grasp with our mind, we find a fresh way of being.” — Pema Chödrön

4. My curiosity births joyful growth.

I open my heart so that I can feel my way through change with joy. I open my mind so that I can see what’s behind doors that once were not even known. I let curiosity lead the way. I let myself experience what it’s like to be a human, growing.

Curiosity births joyful growth: the heart that's open to creative solutions sees more than the mind closed by what it thinks it already knows.

5. I am trying trust instead.

The heart feels the truth before the head understands it. I am learning how to trust my “heart thoughts” instead.
