Affirmations are so important in helping to heal our relationships with ourselves. Our minds produce so much negative self talk that is often so loud we don’t hear, or realize, the GOOD and WONDERFUL things about ourselves.
Take a moment to read my ‘How to Create Positive Affirmations” post! It will give you some more insight into why affirmations are so important, how to identify negative self talk, and what scenarios to use affirmations in!
Personally, I think having about 5-10 affirmations is a great place to start. I have eight that I am currently reciting daily. Remember that affirmations are not what you believe about yourself in the moment, but instead are thoughts that you WANT to have about yourself; thoughts that you want ingrained in your brain that are there to fight the negative ones.
