Mantras

What is the purpose of wearing a short phrase on your wrist? 

Maybe you have two favorite words or a phrase that you repeat to yourself on a daily basis.

This is your mantra. 

What's a Mantra?

Originally found in Hinduism and Buddhism, mantras are sounds or words that are repeated over and over again in meditation practices. In pop culture, a personal mantra is a favorite phrase that you might repeat to yourself for motivation throughout the day. This could be something as simple as: YOU GOT THIS.

Mantras are great tools to use to stop toxic thought-patterns, ease anxiety, and maintain an optimistic outlook. When it comes to “wearing your WORD,” having a statement that you visualize and repeat to yourself will help to keep your intentions at the forefront of your mind.

How do I choose a Mantra?

Do you have a saying that you regularly tell yourself? Like You Got This or Just Breathe?

Do you have a favorite quote, poem, or lyric that’s helped you during difficult times? 

Which phrase stands out to you and will empower you when you look down and see them on your wrist?

What will remind you to breathe? What will boost your confidence?
