July 10 - I Release Gossip

Gossip can feel harmless in the moment—just a little comment, a shared story, a quick opinion. It can feel like a way to connect with others.

But afterward, it often leaves a bad taste in our mouths.

A little heaviness.

A little guilt.

A little wondering if we’ve said too much or heard something we didn’t need to know.

Releasing gossip doesn’t mean we stop caring about connecting with others. It means we care enough to speak of others with kindness, to choose silence when it’s wiser, and to be impeccable in our words.

We can choose our words. We can choose our peace. We can be purposeful in what we say and share and listen to.

These affirmations are here to help us have compassion and peace - and to be intentional in our words.
