Improve Your Life with Morning Affirmations

Affirmations are one of the most popular self-help and personal development techniques because they are easy to do and to integrate into your daily routine. Beyond that, they are popular because they work. Affirmations are one of the most powerful things you can do to help yourself change and grow.

Using affirmations is simple. You pick a small number of affirmations that appeal to you. A few examples are offered below. Pick no less than two and no more than five. More will overwhelm you.

Each morning, you say your affirmations, aloud or silently, several times each. You can do this before you get out of bed or while going about your morning. You can say affirmations in the shower, while brushing your teeth, eating your breakfast, or on your morning commute.

Gradually, as you use the same affirmations over time, they will subtly change your self-talk -the constant flow of thoughts in your brain -and shift your worldview to be more in line with the affirmations. They quite literally reprogram your brain. When you have gotten all the benefits you can out of one set of affirmations, you can switch to another.
