Positive affirmations are statements and phrases used to eliminate unhelpful thoughts. Practicing positive affirmations are easy and will be most effective when performed daily. It only requires a few minutes each day, about 5 – 10 minutes. However, the more you engage in positive affirmations, the more positive you will become. Below are 5 positive affirmations to improve your health and well-being.
But before we dive in, I want to outline the following guideline for effective positive affirmations:
– use present tense
– keep it simple and specific
– speak your affirmations out, don’t just say them in your head
– use positive and meaningful statements and phrases
Now let us look at 5 positive affirmations to improve your health and well-being and gain a deeper connection with your mind, body, and soul.
1. I am energetic, optimistic, and calm
Having the right amount of energy, an optimistic mindset and a calm spirit can save us a lot of headaches. For some people that trio is a part of who they are, while others must make a conscious effort to elicit these emotions. Whatever the case, we can all enjoy the fruit of being energetic, optimistic, and calm by willing ourselves in that direction through daily practice.
2. I am healthy and strong, and my mind is overflowing with peace
Our overall health has a direct connection to a healthy mind and body. When our mind is at peace, we will have clarity and feel more cheerful about living in the realm of positivity. We will then find it easier to maintain our overall health by doing the things that are good for our health and well-being.
3. I move every day
Sometimes it can be difficult to be consistent when it comes to physical activity. Therefore, by affirming that you move your body every day is a powerful motivation to remind you that no matter how you feel, you can get up and engage in some form of physical activity. This can be as simple as going on a walk, dance or go on a light jog.
4. I am grateful for the things in my life
Gratefulness is the foundation for everything good. Make it habitual to wake up each day and express gratitude for the things in your life. Gratefulness allows us to appreciate and cherish who and what we have in our lives, and this is the gateway for continuous healthy, positive emotion and increase.
5. My life has purpose and is full of potential
By affirming that your life has purpose and is full of potential you will ease mental strain and negative emotions, as well as give you a lot to look forward to. Furthermore, this positive affirmation can help you work harder in improving your health and well-being as you work towards fulfilling your purpose and potential.
Summary
Positive affirmations are effective in replacing negative thoughts and emotions with positive, uplifting, and helpful thoughts. Through daily positive affirmations, you can live a more peaceful, optimistic, calm, and healthy life as you purposefully pursue your full potential.
