Nite Nite Nurse Podcast Show Notes
Season 1 Episode 5
Welcome to Nite Nite Nurse: Sleep is self care. Today, we will focus on bringing encouragement and positive thoughts into your day. We will take some time to acknowledge and appreciate the incredible work you do, and offer affirmations to help boost your confidence and well-being. This meditation does not involve any visualization, but instead invites you to simply relax and focus on the present moment.
So take a moment to get comfortable in your seat and close your eyes. Take a deep breath in and release it slowly. As you sit here, allow yourself to let go of any stress or worries you may be carrying. Focus on the present moment and feel the support of the earth beneath you. Take another deep breath in and release it slowly. Repeat this for a few more breaths, allowing yourself to fully relax and be at peace.
Now, I want you to take a moment to acknowledge the incredible work you do as a healthcare worker. Every day, you show up and provide care and support to others, often in challenging and demanding circumstances. You are making a difference in the world and it is important to recognize and celebrate that.
Affirmations are powerful statements that can help to shift our focus and promote a positive mindset. Repeat these affirmations silently to yourself, and allow the words to sink in and bring you comfort and encouragement. These affirmations are specifically crafted to speak to the unique challenges and experiences of healthcare workers, and will serve as a reminder of your resilience and the positive impact you are making in the world.
