Vow to Self Podcast

In a world that highlights doing and achieving, we must remember the importance of being. Rest is a vital part of our well being. It has the capacity to heal us, rejuvenate us, calm us, ground us, refocus us. Rest gives our minds, body and heart time to let go and relax into the present moment, making room for inspiration and creativity to flow. Sometimes, we have to give ourselves permission to slow down and rest, and that’s exactly what we’re doing today. Listen to this meditation in the moments you need to slow down, to rest, relax and let go. Here are vows to rest our minds, bodies and spirits.   Created, written + voiced by Mel Chanté for Vow to Self. Join our newsletter: Vow to Self Newsletter.

A key ingredient to the recipe of life is our awareness. Being in tune with our own energy and spirit helps us move with more intention and wisdom. It helps guide us in our interactions and decisions. It helps us be mindful of our thoughts and words. Awareness is a gift, a compass that has the ability to lead us on aligned paths. Today, we’re honing our awareness to remind ourselves of the inherent power we hold and yield.  Here are vows to inspire and honor our awareness.   Created, written + voiced by Mel Chanté for Vow to Self.

We are wealthy with life. We are rich in life. Often we see wealth as material, things outside of ourselves, when true wealth is the life flowing in our bodies, our health, a beating heart, peace of mind, the joy we find in doing things we love, being around people we love. Every day our eyes open, prosperity greets us. It’s not to say financial wealth isn’t wealth, it’s to say it’s not the only wealth. Our life is priceless, our breath is priceless. When we begin to see how wealthy we truly are simply by having this life to experience, we draw the wealth around us to ourselves. Here are vows to reclaim that we are truly wealthy.   Created, written + voiced by Mel Chanté for Vow to Self. Join our newsletter: Vow to Self Newsletter.

What if we already hold everything we need to live the life of our dreams? What if we are equipped with all that’s required to prosper?

We have the knowing that our presence is for a reason, and we are equipped with all we require to be our truest, best selves. And it all starts within. Here are vows to remind ourselves: we are already equipped.   Created, written + voiced by Mel Chanté for Vow to Self. Join our newsletter: Vow to Self Newsletter.

Trust and faith go hand in hand. When we have trust, we believe the best is yet to come, we have faith that everything will work out in our favor, even if we don’t see it yet.

Our imagination is supernatural. It grants us the ability to see and dream beyond the natural and physical things before our eyes. It is a powerful, influential gift we’ve been given. When we’re children, our imagination is our best friend, we experience the world without limits. We have child-like faith and dreams. We believe everything and anything is possible, and that is the part of ourselves we need to hold onto and nourish. Today, we’re tapping back into that power.  Here are vows to help us expand, appreciate and inspire our imagination. We'll be taking a break from a new episode next week before we wrap Season 4. Thank you for tuning in every week and soaking in these words, your heart thanks you too. 💛 Created, written + voiced by Mel Chanté for Vow to Self. Join our newsletter: Vow to Self Newsletter.

Happy 2023 Friends! So happy to jump back in with words to motivate our year. We often hear about seeing our cups half full, but today, we’re seeing our cups overflow.
