What Affirmations to Say

When it comes to affirmations, there are many different ways to go about how to choose them and how to use them. You can choose to say them out loud, either to yourself or to others; you can write them down, or you can even listen to recordings of affirmations. Whichever method you choose, the important thing is that the affirmations are said with conviction and belief. This article will touch on some tips on what affirmations to say, and how to get the most out of them.

When it comes to choosing what affirmations to say, it is important to keep in mind what your goals are. Are you trying to manifest more money? More love? Improved health? Whatever it is that you are seeking, make sure your affirmations are focused on that goal. For example, if you are seeking more money, you might say something like “I am a magnet for money”, or “I am attracting financial abundance into my life.”

It is also important to keep your affirmations positive. Avoid any negative words or phrases, such as “I don’t want” or “I can’t.” Instead, focus on what you do want, and state it in the present tense as if it has already happened. For example, rather than saying “I will be healthy,” say “I am healthy.” This small change can make a big difference in how effective your affirmations are.

Tips on What to Say and How to Say Affirmations

1. Use “I” statements to affirm your personal power – “I can”, “I will”, “I choose”.
2. Use “Today” statements to help you stay focused on the present moment – “Today I am grateful for…”,
3. Affirmations don’t have to be lengthy or wordy. They can be short and sweet – “I am loved.”, “I am happy.”
4. Including details can be helpful such as -“I am loved by my family, friends, and community.”, “I choose to be happy and at peace with myself and my life.”
5. You can create affirmations for specific areas of your life -“I have a healthy and fit body.”, “I am capable and confident in my career.”, “My relationships are loving, supportive, and fulfilling.”
6. You can use affirmations to manifest your desires into your life -“I am attracting abundance and prosperity into my life.”, “I am surrounded by love and care.”
7. You can use affirmations to release negative patterns and behaviors -“I release all fears, doubts, and worries.”, “I let go of all negativity and instantly feel lighter and happier.”
8. You can use affirmations to change your mindset -“I am worthy of love, respect, and success.”, “I am positive, optimistic, and confident.”
9. You can use affirmations to boost your self-esteem -“I love myself just as I am.”, “I am beautiful inside and out.”, “I accept myself unconditionally.”
10. You can use affirmations to improve your mental and emotional health -“I am calm, relaxed, and at peace.”, “I am happy and content with my life.”

No matter what style of affirmations you choose, the important thing is to be consistent with them. The more you say them, the more likely you are to believe them – and eventually see them manifest in your life. When it comes to choosing what affirmations to say, there are no hard and fast rules. However, there are a few things you should keep in mind. First of all, your affirmations should be specific, positive, and in the present tense. For example, rather than saying “I want to be rich,” you would say “I am a wealthy person.”

The Best Time to Say Affirmations

Affirmations are most effective when said first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Why? Because that’s when our minds are most open to suggestions. Saying affirmations first thing in the morning “primes” your mind for the day ahead and sets the tone for how you want your day to go. Similarly, saying them before bed allows you to reflect on the positive things that happened during the day, and goes to sleep with those thoughts fresh in your mind.

However, just because those are the best times of the day to say affirmations, it is also a good idea to say affirmations throughout the day, whenever you have a free moment. For example, you can say them while you’re waiting in line at the grocery store, or during your lunch break at work. Whenever you have a few seconds to spare, take advantage of that time to reaffirm your goals and desires.

The Power of Positive Affirmations

The power of positive affirmations is often underestimated. However, if used correctly, affirmations can be a very helpful tool to improve our lives.

Affirmations are positive statements that we say to ourselves in order to program our minds for success. By repeating these statements, we can train our subconscious minds to believe them and eventually make them a reality in our lives. Thus creating a strong subconscious bond between us and success.

There are many different ways to use affirmations effectively. One way is to write them down on paper or index cards and carry them around with you throughout the day. Every time you have a free moment, read through your affirmations and repeat them out loud to yourself.

Another effective way to use affirmations is to record them on a voice recorder or your computer and play them back to yourself on a daily basis. Hearing your own voice repeating these positive statements will program your mind for success even faster.

Some people like to create vision boards or collages as a way to visualize their affirmations. By surrounding yourself with images that represent your goals and dreams, you will be reminded of them constantly and be more likely to take action toward making them a reality.

No matter what method you choose to use, the important thing is to be consistent with your affirmations. The more often you repeat them, the more deeply they will be ingrained in your subconscious mind and the more likely you are to achieve success.

How to Get Started With Selfpause 

One way to make affirmations more effective is to add the self-pause technique when saying them. The self-pause is simply a brief pause after we state the affirmation before repeating it. For example, if our affirmation is “I am healthy and fit,” we would say “I am healthy and fit” pause “I am healthy and fit” pause “I am healthy and fit” and so on.

The self-pause allows us to really focus on the affirmation and let the words sink in. It also allows us to add emotion to the affirmation, which can make it even more powerful. When we affirm something with feeling, we are much more likely to believe it and take actions that will help us achieve it. So, if you want to make your affirmations more effective, be sure to add the self-pause technique! Head over to the Selfpause app for the easiest way to get started on your affirmation journey.
