The Power of Affirmations
The Science of Positive Affirmations
The continued repetition of certain thoughts over time has been prover to change your brain, your cells, and even your genes. Which is done via neuroplasticity - neuroplasticity is defined as the ability of the nervous system to change its activity in response to intrinsic or extrinsic stimuli by reorganizing its structure, functions, or connections. Essentially, through positive affirmations, individuals can rewire their brains.
What You Say Matters
How you talk to yourself makes a big difference and can significantly impact your self-esteem and confidence. Your thoughts and self-image shape you, hence the saying, “You are what you think.” Negative thoughts typically translate to negative actions and behaviors. That is why affirmations for positive thinking are crucial, not only for your self-esteem, but also for your well-being.
Try these positive affirmations to improve your confidence and self-esteem:
I am and always will be good enough, smart enough, and strong enough.
I have the power to accomplish everything I need to do today.
I am going to trust the process and take it one day at a time.
