I always had problems with affirmations. Like with visualization and scripting, it's easy to repeat affirmations, look for results, feel down because nothing has changed, and then stay negative. Even if I kept thinking over affirmations, the thought would be on my mind but I still wouldn't believe it. Then I started getting more creative; I would write a few affirmations with words that evoked stronger emotions in me, helping me feel more relief and peace then confidence and fun and prosperity. And now, thanks to affirmations, my actions have changed in the way I wanted despite limiting beliefs from before. So for me, it's both repetition and feeling that makes it work. If the thought can make you feel more excited then you will feel like keeping it up and soon enough that feeling alone (of having your desire real now) will help a lot.

 
Absolutely, that's exactly why I hope people will give it another go. But you have to try and find words that allow you to tap into the FEELINGS you are reaching for. That's when the magic begins and affirmations come into their own.

How do you create affirmations that connect to the feelings that I want and  to create what you want ?

Happy Valentine's weekend, beautiful people of planet earth 😘

I have had lots of people asking me about affirmations. So why don't we explore them together?

To me, affirmations are phrases that really strike a chord with your soul. And by that I am meaning that what you say in your affirming is at the very core or "heart" of what you truly desire yourself to be.

I believe that many of you have tried affirmations here or there, but without considering the underlying emotion that you wish to elicit through doing them. You can stare at yourself and repeat "I'm abundant" until the word abundant sounds totally foreign to you lol... but you aren't reaping the enormous benefits of those affirmations. And they are not assisting to propel you into a new and improved reality.

So, with that in mind I am going to run through Affirmations, Cherished-style. Perhaps it inspires some of you to think more deeply and profoundly about your own self-worth. Perhaps it inspires you to laugh and move onto the next thread instead. It's all perfect, either way. But if you want to know a very powerful technique for centring yourself and to spark the embers of your own self-love, then read on!

Ok. First thing you need to be doing when creating your best affirmations is uncovering what it is that you truly desire for yourself. What do you want to be? What qualities do you wish to possess? I'll share some I wrote a year ago. And I can tell you emphatically that after repeating them in the mirror day by day, my feelings of self-worth skyrocketed. Affirmations are a powerhouse that speak directly to your soul and what your soul wants to align with. If you do this properly, you will feel your power soon enough.

It took me a few weeks of rolling my eyes and slaking my head in amusement at how "obnoxious" it felt to write such rubbish and say it to myself. But after a few weeks, a strange occurrence had me changing my opinion of affirmations forever. I began to believe them. And other people began to respond to that energy. And they began to reflect those qualities to me. They started to become my reality. It is my hope that you will all give this a go in the name of self-exploration, acceptance and love. This will go a long way towards bringing your desires into physical fruition.

Here are a list of some of my older affirmations. I still focus on one or 2 points a day. Every day. I encourage you to play with them, tweak them, rewrite them to match your own desires, repeat them, and then BECOME them. 💜🌈

How many times do you say your affirmations ?

For me, just after waking up in the morning is the most effective time to do them. They just stick with me.
