Affirmations have been my absolute life saver for many years.
It is my number one recommendation to anyone who is starting on the journey of self awareness.
They can be extremely helpful when dealing with difficult and stressful situations in life.
They set our energy field in the higher frequency that matches the high energy of the affirmation. If repeated daily, it becomes our reality. It can counteract all our tendencies of self doubt, self sabotage and self criticism. We all have to deal with them in a different degree, on a daily basis. What we believe is what we have been telling ourselves or what we have been told by others for years. This creates strong patterns of our belief system. Most of the time they are really difficult to break, resulting in sabotaging every wholesome intention we try to undertake. For our intentions to become actions and materialise, we need to believe in our abilities.
That is where the affirmations play a crucial role. They shift, change and redesign our belief system. And the best thing about it is that we can program it the way we want.
In yogic philosophy our belief system is ruled by Svadisthana chakra – energy center located around the upper pelvis space in our physical body. Through the power of that chakra we can co-create ourselves anew over and over again by chosing and reaffirming our beliefs.
Repeating your chosen affirmations daily will make them become your new reality.
These are just a few of my favourite general affirmations from Louise Hay you could use daily:
All is well in my world, my life supports me.
Life brings me only good experiences.
I am open to new and wonderful changes.
All that I seek is already within me.
I handle my own life with joy and ease.
I love myself just the way I am.
I am grateful for my healthy body.
I love my life.
I am unlimited in my wealth.
All areas of my life are abundant and fulfilling.
I flow easily with new experiences, new challenges and new people who enter my life.
My heart is open, I speak with loving words.
I now free myself from destructive fears and doubts.
I am safe.
I am in perfect health.
As I forgive myself it is easier to forgive others.
You can choose any of the above if it resonated with you or you can customise your affirmations.

How to customise affirmations for yourself?
Sit down and close your eyes. Think about your biggest fear or doubt you have about yourself. What tends to be the most common narration about yourself in your head?
Then open your eyes and note it down one by one.
Now change each doubt into a positive sentence. For example if your usual belief about yourself is “I am not good enough” change it into “I succeed in everything I set my mind on.”
Create your list of affirmations in this way, using your negative beliefs and changing them to the empowering affirmations. Reading it out loud daily has the best effects.
Then just watch the change in your consciousness and in your life over a short time.
