As simple as affirmations can seem, it is a very powerful practice, which reprograms our brain.
"Now a new brain-imaging study published recently in Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience has lifted the lid on what’s happening in the brain when people practice self-affirmation, helping to explain the technique’s apparent effectiveness — and hinting at a simple way to enhance the technique" (TheCut.com)
Our brain operates similarly to a computer. There is a particular program (a.k.a.idea we have about how the world around us works) that directs our behaviors, thoughts, and actions.
For example, two women have similar jobs as editors of a fashion magazine. Laura hates fashion and keeps this job for money. She dislikes fashion because her mother was a fashion model and was away almost all her childhood (let's say a VERY subjective reason to hate something :). The other girl, Viktoria loved fashion and dreamed working in fashion magazine since she was a little girl.
The question is who will perform better at work? Laura and Vikky have very similar environments, but a different mindset. As incredibly important as the environment is, the way we think and feel determines our actions. And actions define our life.
The tricky thing about the human mind is the programming we have can't be deleted. It can be only changed. And this is where affirmations come very handy.
I've been saying out loud, writing, repeating affirmations in my head for years. At first, yes, it seemed very odd. "How can just repeating phrases change my life??" - I thought. But results speak for themselves! I am still stunned when opening my notebooks filled with affirmations from a year ago. I usually affirm something opposite to what I struggle with. The problem that seemed so big, I felt like I will never be able to change it, is just gone now... Of course, affirmations aren't the only thing I did to improve. But they play a significant role.
Today I want to share with you powerful affirmations which help to know your self-worth and value yourself more.
If you like all things spiritual, I link affirmations with chakras for better results, but it's not necessary at all if a word "chakra" sounds like way too much to you :)
