What are Affirmations?
Affirmations are words and phrases stated in the present that allow you to condition and empower yourself for success in whatever your goals may be. Most often, people think that affirmations are used to focus on positive thinking. But affirmations can be used for a variety of benefits including enhancing relaxation, stimulating creativity, and strengthening self-control among numerous other values.
Your subconscious mind acts much like a computer whatever you tell it to do, it does. So, if you say you want to do something, your consciousness is filled with the desire to make it happen on a multitude of levels. But if you say you are doing something, your consciousness begins doing it now. The more you practice affirming, the more it becomes second-nature.
By affirming daily, you allow yourself to be more comfortable, more beautiful, more joyous, and more in control of your life.
Basic Affirming - Guidelines
Remember, your words have power. Choose them carefully to create what you truly want.
Step 1. Achieve a Meditative State by taking deep breaths and allowing yourself to relax.
Step 2. Make a list to identify what it is that you want to create or change. Let's use the example of "Idon't want to feel resentful".
Step 3. Empower. Take each statement on your List and empower it by making it a statement of positive action now. So, "Idon't want to feel resentful" becomes "I am free of resentment."
Step 4. Repeat your affirmations regularly.
a) Songs. You can sing your affirmations by putting them to music. You can make up your own tunes or use the melodies of popular songs.
b) Post-it Notes. Write your affirmations on post-it notes and place them on mirrors, the refrigerator, in your date book, in strategic places where you will see them often.
c) Use specific daily activities as opportunities to repeat affirmations, e.g., bathroom breaks, meal preparation, time you spend in the mirror (very powerful), while exercising, bathing, etc.
i) I find that affirming during mundane activities is particularly powerful, e.g., turning the key in the lock on your door. You can also attach specific affirmations to specific activities. This practice soon becomes second-nature.
d) Whenever you feel that you are in the process of doubting yourself, be sure to affirm and get back on track.
