How Positive Affirmations Can Empower Your Life: Here Are 15 Benefits
Previously, I touched on the transformative power of positive affirmations. Out of all the strategies I tried to tackle my anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, positive affirmations had the most profound impact on my journey out of despair.
It's easy to get caught up in the negative whirlwind of stress, doubt, and worry. Even when life feels overwhelming, using positive affirmations can help you face and overcome challenges. These simple yet profound statements transformed my inner beliefs, improving my mental and physical well-being while positively influencing my close relationships.
I am a firm believer in positive affirmations. As I have talked about before, I grew up in a very chaotic family environment that resulted in me having low self-esteem and self-worth. It wasn't until I was nearing sixty-five that I decided enough was enough because I didn't want to die with regrets.
I had heard about positive affirmations from people like Louise Hay, Dwayne Dyer and others. But they didn't seem to work for me. At least, that is what I thought at the time. It wasn't the affirmations; it was me who was the reason. I didn't make them a daily habit. I tried writing them out or repeating them while standing in front of my mirror. Standing in front of a mirror and looking into my eyes was a significant challenge. I couldn't do it. I hated the person who was looking back at me. So I stopped.
When, at sixty-five, and wanting to live a happier and fulfilling life, I knew I had to do something different. I still believed in the power of affirmations but knew I had to change things up. Instead of writing them out or standing in front of my mirror, I found a great app. I immersed myself in affirmations.
The app I found allows me to record the affirmations in my voice, and then once recorded, I can set the affirmations to music. To this day, any chance I have, in the shower, on a walk, or in my car, I listen to my affirmations, repeating each of them. I keep filling my mind with "I am worthwhile." I live an empowered life. "I deserve a wonderful life."
The more I listen to my affirmations, the better I feel about myself. The better I feel, the more my life changes, bringing me the love, joy, and happiness I seek.
What are Positive Affirmations?
Positive affirmations reinforce positive beliefs about yourself, your abilities, and your circumstances. They are simple declarations of positivity and self-worth that, when repeated regularly, can rewire your brain to focus on the good rather than the negative.
How Affirmations Impact Mental and Physical Well-being:
The mind-body connection is a powerful force, and positive affirmations serve as a bridge between the two. When you cultivate a positive inner dialogue, your body responds with:
reduced stress levels,
improved immune function,
and increased overall well-being.
Studies have shown that individuals who make affirmations a daily habit experience lower levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, and report greater feelings of happiness and...
