Affirmations: Rewiring Your Perspective (Plus Cool Apps)

Recently I've come across some pretty awesome LOA (Law of Attraction) phone apps and thought I would share them and in addition talk about affirmations.

Warning: long post ahead.

AFFIRMATIONS.

Firstly, an affirmation is a statement that you either write down or say to yourself, aloud or in your thoughts, that trains your mind to believe it is true, even if you currently don't believe it's true. It's a great tool for the Law Of Attraction because it helps us get rid of limiting beliefs that actually hinder us from accomplishing our goals. For example, if I ever catch myself in a mood, feeling sad or tired, I'll say an affirmation like "I feel very energetic and happy!" I'll repeat this affirmation to myself several times til it sets in.

Even if at first I was grumpy and annoyed with myself and the idea that I was anything but sad and tired, eventually the words will sink in and I'll realize that I can change my mood. All it takes is the effort and the will to change. Believe me I know it's hard at first.

Misery does love company and when I'm feeling down I usually want to stay down, wallow in my sadness, eat ice cream, watch a sappy movie, and cry. And that's not necessarily a bad thing. Giving into your emotions can actually be a healthy way to resolve them, IF you move on after you acknowledge them.

Keeping yourself in a low vibration for a long period of time can do a lot of harm. So take caution: If you're going to take a day to be sad and cry, try to limit it to just that day. Let out all of your emotions and wake up the next day with the intention of being happy. Then take it day by day. And the same goes for any other negative emotions like anger, jealousy, resentment, etc.

Getting back on the topic of affirmations, they can be used for anything, not just emotions! Say I'm trying to manifest a new car. An affirmation for that could be "I have a brand new shiny red Mercedes Benz."

Then since I'm using the Law of Attraction, the next step would be to act as if it's true. I would visualize myself driving the new Mercedes. I would save pictures of the car and picture myself in the photo standing next to it. Next, I would take Then of course, I would know that it will all be taken care of by the Universe and I should no longer concern myself with it. Let it go.

Some affirmations I use often are:

"It's a great day!"

"Life is wonderful!"

"Everything is happening for my highest good!"

I AMS.

I am affirmations are affirmations that are used for affirming your beliefs about who you are. You could say them to yourself to rewire your mind to believe you are already the person you want to be. Try it out for a week and see how you start to change into that person subconsciously! It's an amazing tool.

Here are some examples of I Ams:

I am happy

I am positive

I am motivated

I am quick

I am intelligent

I am strong 

I am brave

I am persistent

I am loving

I am beautiful

I am kind

I am generous

I am safe
