Great to see you again! Thanks for visiting!
Let’s start with a quick précis of what, precisely, we mean by ‘affirmations’. For those of you already familiar with the idea, you can skip straight to the paragraph headed ‘5 Top Tricks and Tips for Affirmations Preparation’.
In essence, an affirmation is a positive statement which when properly employed can reprogram your subconscious, a positive statement which when said repeatedly to yourself with genuine emotional intensity, can influence internal forces and can lead to the manifestation of dramatic changes in your life.
There are three fundamental stages to the affirmations process. The first stage is recognising that reality as you currently experience it exists as a direct result of your thoughts and thought processes. The second stage is recognising that if you change your thoughts and the way you think, you can change the quality and details of your reality. The third and final stage is reprogramming your subconscious to allow your thoughts and thought processes to change.
5 Top Tips and Tricks for Affirmations Preparation
1) Decide which aspect of your life will benefit most from the effective application of affirmations. Until you become proficient, it’s generally a good idea to focus on one aspect at a time. In other words, start with a plan.
2) Always write your affirmations down. There are two benefits to this. Firstly, it will help you memorize them. Secondly, you’re more likely to carefully consider your choice of words and phrasing. Which leads us neatly on to:
3) Only use positive words. Negative words (such as can’t, never, don’t, mustn’t etc) can create negative feelings which can weaken your affirmations.
4) Always word your affirmations using the present tense. This creates a sense of immediacy. Past or future tenses create a sense of distance between you and your affirmations, which is unhelpful.
5) Schedule a specific time for your affirmations and try your best to stick to that time. Your affirmations need to take on the characteristics of a habit.
If you follow these 5 tips, you’ll find your affirmations quickly become second nature.
Good luck.
