Daily Affirmations

Daily affirmations are simple, positive statements that empower and uplift the person speaking them. It is very easy to practice positive affirmations; just pick a phrase, say it, and repeat it 3 to 5 times a day. Affirmations help reprogram our minds away from negative, self-statements and unhelpful thoughts. 


Creating an Affirmation Jar is a simple, fun way to bring daily affirmations into your life and home. Write out positive phrases, mantras, compliments, self-love, and kindness statements on slips of paper and put them in a jar. Place the jar by the door you use most. When you leave the house, take a slip of paper from the jar and use that as your affirmation for the day.
