What are affirmations?
According to YourDictionary.com, the definition of an affirmation is the act of confirming something to be true or is a written or oral statement that confirms something is true.
That basically means having a positive mindset and manifesting positive vibes.
How to Use Affirmations
- Write them down
- Try mirror work
- Meditate using mantras
- Listen while you sleep
- Use reminders
- Get creative
Write them down – get in the habit of writing down your affirmations daily. You can write them in several different places such as a journal, notepad, post-it notes, etc and then place them somewhere you will see them throughout the day. I truly believe things are more effective when they are written!
Try mirror work – it is a technique that you can include in your morning or evening routine. You basically say the affirmations in front of a mirror a few times a day (for at least 3-5 minutes).
Meditate using mantras – while meditation isn’t for everyone, the ones that do meditate feel it is definitely an effective method.
Listen while you sleep – record you saying affirmations and then play them while you sleep.
Set reminders – you can set reminders on your phone and/or use an App. An app is great to utilize because it not only reminds you but also actually sends daily affirmations directly to your phone.
Get creative – you can find all kinds of other ways to implement affirmations into your life. Depending on your personality and your situation think outside the box and do something innovative – or not! 🙂 . . . It really depends on you!
Some signs that show there’s a lack of self-love, confidence and/or self-worth
- The need to receive validation from others
- Feel you’re inferior
- Always put others before yourself
- You don’t give yourself grace
- Feel you’re worthless
- Tend to settle for less
Do positive self-love affirmations really work?
Using positive affirmations is definitely not for everyone, but they absolutely work! Affirmations work when you adjust your mindset and put in the work.
