What are affirmations, positive affirmations, and how can we use them to propel our lives forward? Once you start using affirmations in your life you will learn how powerful they can be.
Affirmations are a statement of what you want or how you intend your life to be. Affirmations should be positive affirmations, meaning they should be about what you want, not on what you don’t want.
One classic example of a positive affirmation is this: ‘every day in every way I’m feeling better and better.’ This one has a lot of history behind it. It was created by a physician in Europe to try and help his patients heal faster. He recognized decades ago the power that the mind has over the body and the environment.
If you have done affirmations you are likely aware of how powerful they can be. Use them as a constant reminder of what you want out of life.
How often do we say affirmations?
It seems like most people that promote using affirmations don’t specify how often to do them, but most say at least daily. Again this isn’t very specific. I try to do my affirmations at least 3 times a day and repeat them about 10 times with emotion, with or without vocalizing them depending on where I’m at.
How long do we say these affirmations?
I was watching a program featuring T. Harv Eker, author of the Millionaire Mind and he had a great answer for this question. His answer was to do affirmations until you achieve them. A simple and to the point answer, but not necessarily obvious to everyone.
