My Journey with Affirmations and Positive Thinking
Hello! If you're reading this, you’re likely interested in the power of affirmations and positive thinking. Let me assure you, it’s more than just a trend—it’s a transformative practice. I've been on this path for some time, and I can confidently say that affirmations have changed my mindset, energy, and even my reality. As a Trauma Survivor with PTSD, I’m thrilled to share my experiences and insights with you, hoping they will assist in healing trauma, alleviating pain, or manifesting your dream life. So, grab a cup of tea, get comfortable, and let’s dive in!
What Are Affirmations and Why Do They Work?
First things first, what exactly are affirmations? Simply put, affirmations are positive statements that you repeat to yourself to challenge and overcome negative thoughts. They’re like little pep talks you give yourself to reprogram your subconscious mind. Affirmations are an important step to a spiritual journey, as is meditation and prayer.
But here’s the kicker: they actually work! As long as you say it, believe it, to receive it. When you consistently repeat affirmations, you start to shift your mindset. Your brain begins to believe these positive statements, and this belief influences your actions and decisions. It’s like planting seeds of positivity in your mind and watching them grow into a beautiful garden of confidence and clarity.
My Personal Affirmation Practice: How I Got Started
I reached the lowest point in my life, truly on my knees, due to years of abuse. Guided by God and Spirit Guides, I discovered my life purpose, which set me on a spiritual journey. Initially, when I encountered affirmations and meditation, I was doubtful. I wondered, “How can a few positive words make any difference?” Nonetheless, I decided to give it a shot, and I'm so glad I did! Had I not followed my divine guidance, I wouldn't be here now writing this blog.
I began with a simple affirmation: “I Love You.” Each morning, I would stand in front of the mirror, look into my eyes, and say it aloud. It felt awkward at first, but gradually it became a powerful ritual. Starting with self-love is essential on your healing journey. I started noticing subtle improvements in my confidence and self-esteem. I felt more motivated, more focused, and—dare I say it—more at ease with myself.
I incorporated meditation alongside affirmations because connecting with your God, Higher Self, and Spirit Guides is like activating your inner GPS with divine coordinates—it provides direction, clarity, and deep peace, especially when the outside world seems chaotic.
The Benefits of Divine Alignment
Clarity: Decisions come from soul guidance, not ego confusion.
Healing: You’re no longer carrying emotional weight alone; you’re being held.
Creative Flow: Ideas feel inspired, as if downloaded straight from the stars.
Empowerment: Life becomes a sacred co-creation with the Universe.
The Science Behind Positive Thinking: It’s Not Just Fluff
Now, let me get a bit scientific. Positive thinking isn’t just some woo-woo concept; there’s actual research to back it up. I’ve seen studies that show positive thinking can reduce stress, improve physical health, and even increase my lifespan. When I focus on the good, my brain releases feel-good chemicals like dopamine and serotonin, which boost my mood and energy levels.
Additionally, positive thinking helps me approach challenges with a growth mindset. Instead of seeing obstacles as roadblocks, I see them as opportunities to learn and grow. This shift in perspective can make all the difference in achieving my goals.
How to Create Affirmations That Actually Work
Alright, so you’re ready to start your affirmation practice. But how do you create affirmations that actually work? Here are a few tips I’ve learned along the way:
Be Specific: Instead of saying, “I am successful,” try, “I am excelling in my career and attracting amazing opportunities.”
Use Present Tense: Phrase your affirmations as if they’re already true. For example, “I am confident and capable,” not “I will be confident and capable.”
Make Them Personal: Your affirmations should resonate with you on a deep level. Choose words that feel meaningful and authentic.
Keep Them Positive: Focus on what you want to attract, not what you want to avoid. Instead of “I am not stressed,” say, “I am calm and at peace.”
Overcoming Doubt and Staying Consistent
Let’s be real—starting an affirmation practice isn’t always easy. There will be days when you doubt yourself or forget to do your affirmations. And that’s okay! The key is to stay consistent and be gentle with yourself.
Incorporating affirmations into my daily routine was one strategy that helped me stay focused. I would recite them while brushing my teeth, driving, or even grocery shopping. The more I included them in my day, the more natural they became.
The Ripple Effect: How Affirmations Impact Every Area of Life
Here’s the beautiful thing about affirmations: they don’t just affect one area of your life—they create a ripple effect. As I became more confident and positive, I noticed improvements in my relationship with myself, my anxiety, and even my health. I was more present, more grateful, and more open to new opportunities.
For instance, I previously grappled with self-doubt because of past trauma. However, by regularly affirming, “I am worthy of love, I am worthy, and deserving of success,” I began to take more proactive steps in shaping my life to align with my purpose. Now, I offer Spiritual Guidance, conduct Readings, and have over 9,000 followers on TikTok—and guess what? I can achieve it! Affirmations greatly assist in managing my triggers, showcasing the effectiveness of affirmations in practice.
Final Thoughts: You Have the Power to Transform Your Life
If there’s one thing I want you to take away from this blog, it’s this: you have the power to transform your life. Affirmations and positive thinking are tools that can help you unlock that power. They’ve helped me, and I know they can help you too.
So, what are you waiting for? Start small, stay consistent, and watch as your mindset—and your life—begin to shift. Remember, every thought you think and every word you speak is shaping your reality. Choose positivity, choose confidence, and choose to believe in the incredible person you are.
If you think, speak, and act negatively, that's what the universe will return to you.
