How to Write Affirmations to Increase Your Self-Esteem

Because low self-esteem is sometimes caused by our own internal dialogue in the way of negative messages, it really does make sense to nourish our mind with positive messages in order to increase our self-esteem. By giving ourselves positive affirmations we can improve our self-esteem and well being.

Giving ourselves positive affirmations can sometimes be a block for some people not only because they find it difficult to take on board and accept affirmations but they don't really know what to say to themselves or know how to word the affirmations for maximum effect.

Affirmations - Do They Really Work?

Two years ago you couldn't get me to do affirmations to save my soul. The irony is; now I do them all the time to save my soul! And guess what? They do work and, when done purposefully - with heart and consistency, they do wonders.

When I was first introduced to the concept of affirmations I found I couldn't get past having to say something that I knew in my heart wasn't true, much less having to repeat it. I felt like I was lying. To me affirmations ranked right up there with platitudes. "Don't worry, be happy." Right. I'll get right on it.

The Power of Affirming "I Am Healed"

Eventually you will come to understand that love heals everything and love is all there is. - Gary Zukav

A number of years after my father died I heard that the lungs are where grief is held. When I heard this it helped to explain the following experience I had.

While my father was in the last couple of weeks of his life, I contracted a lung infection. I had never had one before and it made me realise just how much stress I was going through. It took quite some time to clear the infection, but every now and again it would return.

While I was visiting Medjugorje in 2001, on a peace pilgrimage, the infection came back again, and I really wanted to clear it up once and for all. One morning at breakfast, I spoke to a member of the group.

"Do you know if anyone in the group knows reiki or similar, which could help to clear a lung infection?"
"Yes, Linda does, and she's a good healer," she replied.
"Excellent, thanks," I said.

Daily Affirmations For Well-being And Happiness

Setting goals or desiring a change in your life is much easier than achieving goals or making change happen. That requires determination, the right attitude and a few handy tools to get the job done. Daily affirmations are a powerful tool which makes changing your life for the better a positive and empowering experience.
What is an Affirmation?

You could consider affirmations as antonyms to complaints. They are opposites, in the same sense of a complaint being, "I'm so darned tired all the time." The affirmation sounds more like, "I'm full of energy, alive and awake."

The goals we have and the changes we desire are represented by affirmations. It's important to state them positively and in the present tense. There are no rules to follow concerning the appropriateness of any affirmation; it could be material, spiritual or a combination of both types.

Attract Money Now Using Affirmations

So you desire to gain material things in life? Affirmations are usually effective in this respect - maybe even more so than with other desires because material desires often come with stronger emotional attachments. You'll recall that in my previous article I emphasized that affirmations that are emotionally charged are the ones most likely to work. So when you are emotionally connected to your desire for material things, you can use the power of affirmations to see how quickly your need is manifested!

How Positive Affirmation Works With The Law Of Attraction

Before I get into how affirmations affect the Law of Attraction, and what is brought into (attracted into) your life, first I'll go what exactly affirmations are, and what a positive affirmation is. Affirmations are simply spoken words, either by you, or someone else, that are directed towards YOU, that either consciously or subconsciously affects you in some way. An example affirmation would be "I love my job and am happy to be there every morning." That is an example of a positive affirmation. The following is a negative affirmation: "I hate my job and I cannot wait until this weekend."

The Most Powerful Affirmation

Have you used affirmations in the past and gotten little results from them? The problem with traditional affirmations is that they usually place the emphasis on the WORDS. But here's a little secret: the words don't matter a bit when placing your order with the universe.

What does matter? The FEELINGS you bring up as you say the words.

Remember that the law of attraction works according to your thoughts, beliefs and emotions. You can recite "I am wealthy" all day long for years - but if you don't feel wealthy and you don't really believe you are wealthy, guess what will happen? Nothing!

How To Make More Money Through Spiritual Affirmation

A few years ago, a young bank cashier asked Maria Duval, a famous clairvoyant, "How can I get more money? How can I get to do things I want to do?"

She answered him with a simple explanation, telling him that his habitual thoughts were ingrained in his subconscious mind and that if he steered his thoughts and inner dialogue in the right direction, he could have all the money he needed.

Inner dialogue is responsible for everything happening in our lives. Stop and think about this scenario now. How would you act, react or speak if you already had all the money that you want? This young bank cashier replied to Maria Duval that he would buy a beautiful home for his family and a boat so that he would travel round the world and then he would study political economy at a good university.
