Self-care doesn’t have to be grand. Sometimes it is a hand on your heart, a nourishing meal, a short walk, or simply letting yourself rest. With Every Loving Breath is a warm, gentle affirmation song about meeting each day with kindness toward yourself. Play it first thing in the morning as you greet the light, or any time you need a reminder that you deserve tender care, too.
Sing Along: The Words
Verse 1
I wake to greet the morning light,
I welcome warmth, I welcome life.
I place a hand upon my heart,
With loving care, this day can start.
I listen to what my body needs,
I nourish hope with gentle deeds.
A little movement, time to rest,
I give myself the love I give the rest.
Chorus
With every loving breath I take,
I choose the care that helps me thrive.
I welcome peace into my mind,
I feel the wonder of being alive.
I am deserving of good health,
Of tender care and help as well.
One loving choice, one hopeful day,
I walk with kindness all the way.
Verse 2
I welcome food that nourishes me,
And moments where my thoughts run free.
I find my strength at my own pace,
I meet my limits with gentle grace.
My body is a friend to me,
Together, we have much to see.
Through changing days, through sun and rain,
I offer love to myself again.
Chorus
With every loving breath I take,
I choose the care that helps me thrive.
I welcome peace into my mind,
I feel the wonder of being alive.
I am deserving of good health,
Of tender care and help as well.
One loving choice, one hopeful day,
I walk with kindness all the way.
Bridge
I can rest and still be strong,
I can ask for help and still belong.
Whatever this day brings to me,
I am worthy of compassion, freely.
I welcome laughter, I welcome sleep,
And loving promises I can keep.
My heart has room for hope to stay,
I can care for myself today.
Final Chorus
With every loving breath I take,
I choose the care that helps me thrive.
I welcome peace into my mind,
I feel the wonder of being alive.
My body, mind, and soul deserve
The love I share, the care I preserve.
One loving choice, one hopeful day,
I walk with kindness all the way.
Outro
I breathe in peace,
I welcome rest.
I meet this moment
With tenderness.
I breathe in peace,
I welcome light.
I am worthy of care,
By day and by night.
