One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life - that word is love. Sophocles
Affirmations are short, positive statements made in the present tense to bring about something which we would like to have or occur in our lives - a transformation in body, mind and spirit. A statement starting with "I am" or "I have" are good ones to start with e.g. "I am at peace and I apply my wisdom" or "I have an abundance of energy". Notice these statements assume you already have these things in your life right now.
By repeating these statements to ourselves many times throughout the day, we begin to make shifts in our lives due to the Law of Attraction. By saying a positive statement over and over we are bringing positive things to us, in the same way as if you were to say negative statements such as "I am fat" or "There's never enough money for me to pay my bills", so too will you be attracting these things into your life. Think about what you are constantly saying to yourself - are you attracting what you don't want?
"We can create what we want in our life by affirming what we want"
For affirmations to be truly effective, one must not only say affirmations repeatedly, but also visualise and get in touch with ones feelings. Let's use the following affirmation as an example - "I am healthy and the ideal weight for my height". Now close your eyes while you say this affirmation to yourself and imagine being healthy and the ideal weight - can you imagine eating healthy foods and exercising? How does it make you feel to eat healthy foods and exercise - do you feel energised, can you imagine seeing yourself look in the mirror each week and see yourself thinner each week? Affirmations coupled with visualisation and getting in touch with how we feel are very powerful tools for us to get what we want and deserve out of life. Life wasn't meant to be a struggle, life was meant to be a playground to enjoy and learn. Let's learn how to create the things we do want in our lives.
