What exactly are positive affirmations?

Positive affirmations are a type of “brain food” in which you can feed your mind to expand the limiting beliefs you may have have.

It has been proven that saying 10 things in which you are grateful for every day for 25 days you can literally re-wire your brain to be happy. It may sound silly because of how simple it is, but it works. Positive affirmations not only remove limiting beliefs, but improves your overall outlook on life and and in turn makes you more motivated to succeed in your goals.

Daily Affirmations and the Law of Attraction

Simply put, the Law of Attraction is where you magnetically draw (attract) things vibrating on the same “frequency”. This means that if you work to maintain a high frequency (through positivity, love, compassion, and productivity) then you inevitably end up with more good things in your life.

Law of Attraction experts almost universally recommend using positive affirmations. Psychologists and neurologists are increasingly interested in how positive affirmations affect the brain and subconscious mind. Experts believe that our subconscious mind controls most of our lives.

Affirmations Before You Sleep

Experts have proven that just before you drift off into sleep, or REM mode, you are in hypnosis-like state. This is a good place to start re-programming your subconscious mind. The benefits of practising positive affirmations before bed to has been claimed by world-renowned author and neuroscientist Joe Dispenza, as well as author and “the father of motivation” Dr. Wayne Dyer.

Here is a short video by Dr. Wayne Dyer talking about affirmations 5 minutes before you fall asleep and how it will change your life.

8 Affirmations to Say Every Night Before Bed

4. I am connected to an unlimited source of abundance.

Time to Tap into the Life-Changing Effects of Affirmations

So, I guess the question now is: What are you waiting for? At the very least, by practising even a couple of affirmations that you can think of to get started, you will become aware of just how much negative self-talk you say to yourself.

I truly believe that our thoughts create our actions and our actions create our reality. One positive thought a day goes a long way. You may also look at affirmations as a form of meditation, or you may look at them as the “psychological immune system”. When something knocks you down, you can use your affirmation to pick you back up.

If you are still wondering if this is for you, there are other short videos such as this one .(Affiliate Link) I hope this single small habit can improve the quality of your life as much as it has mine. Just remember, focus on the positive. Are you ready to feel more confident?
