THE PURPOSE OF THIS GROUP IS TO POST OR SIMPLY READ AFFIRMATIONS OR QOUTES THAT CAN ULTIMATELY IMPROVE THE QUALITY YOUR LIFE. Affirmations have been used since humans have had language. We use affirmations now to help us lose weight and stop smoking. We use affirmations to build our self-confidence and self-esteem. We use affirmations to help us get out of depression and to relieve our anger. We use them to control our fear and anxiety and for stress management. Affirmations are used successfully in all areas of personal growth and self improvement. An affirmation is a statement that you make to yourself. Everyone uses them intentionally or unintentionally. You wake up in the morning, jump out of bed and exclaim "I feel great". That is a positive affirmation. You drag yourself out of bed in the morning and whimper "I feel rotten". That is a negative affirmation. Both statements help to maintain the emotional state you are in. Our self-talk, the things we say to ourself, is very important because it directly effects our conscious and subconscious mind. We listen to everything we say to ourself. Because our affirmations work so well to maintain the state of mind we are in, we can use them to change that state of mind. True, it takes more work to change how we think and feel, but, if you follow these guidelines, the use of affirmations can become a strong, useful tool for helping yourself become happier and healthier. Affirmations are a healing tool that can make you feel better about yourself to gain control of your life. They adjust your attitude during daily routines thus empowering you to believe that you can create what you need for happiness and success in life. An affirmation (from Latin affirmare, to assert) is the declaration that something is true. In spirituality and personal development, an affirmation is a form of autosuggestion in which a statement of a desirable intention or condition of the world or the mind is deliberately meditated on or repeated in order to implant it in the mind. Affirmation could be viewed positively as a mobilization of one's inner resources, or negatively as a kind of self-induced brainwashing, depending on the psychological depth and wisdom of the affirmation. For example, "I am making more room in my life for success every day" is a much wiser affirmation than "I will win the lottery today!" Affirmations can be a very powerful means of reprogramming the unconscious mind. They appear to be most effective when repeated in a quiet and restful state of mind and body. Daily affirmations may change negative thoughts to positive ones. You become more assertive, self-confident, and happier. You learn to be kinder and more accepting of those around you realizing that everything does not revolve around you and your needs. They may be expressed verbally, read, or written down. |
