How to use positive affirmations

You really can use your positive affirmations at any time. We all have thoughts running through our mind all day every day. Affirmations are a way to deliberately focus your thoughts on what you want so that they support you.

In the hit law of attraction movie THE SECRET – Mike Dooley explains that THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS. In my LAW OF ATTRACTION GUIDE, I explain that the law of attraction responds to your thoughts.

With this in mind, it totally makes sense to focus on increasing your positive and supportive thoughts by using affirmations.

For more on how affirmations work with the law of attraction, read this blog post – LAW OF ATTRACTION AND AFFIRMATIONS.

First thing in the morning and last thing at night are both great times to run through your affirmations as this is a time when your mind is the most relaxed and your subconscious mind accepts these messages more readily.

Then I encourage you to make affirmations a part of your day. Any time you get a chance to focus on your affirmations just repeat some. For example, when you’re in a queue when you’re in the shower when you’re out walking…

Also, try to get into the habit of paying attention to your thoughts and whenever you spot a limiting or negative thought (anything that doesn’t support you and uplift you) swap it for positive affirmations.

You’ll gradually retrain your mind to naturally go to the positive thoughts rather than those unhelpful thoughts.

I encourage you to read through my full HOW TO USE AFFIRMATIONS GUIDE – It’s right here on the blog. And if you’re in business, also check out HOW TO USE AFFIRMATIONS FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS.which is also on the blog.

Make your affirmations specific to you

I have absolutely loads of affirmations ideas here on the blog for different areas of your life, have a browse of my AFFIRMATIONS BLOG POSTS.

You can also create your own affirmations. Simply think about what you want and put it into a positive statement. For example, when I reach out to a company I work with I fill my mind with the affirmation – People are so helpful and really want to support me. I say something similar when I go shopping.

If you want to feel more confident when you go into meetings, you can use the affirmation – I am confident when I’m in meetings.

You can go on to say supporting affirmations such as… I feel well prepared for meetings, I always know what to say in meetings, I am listened to in meetings, my opinions matter in meetings…

If you want to improve a relationship with a family member or friend, you could say… I have a really happy and strong relationship with (name the person). They always have time for me and love spending time with me…

Remember that affirmations are a way to deliberately shape your thoughts so that they support you in creating the life you want.
