Do Positive Affirmations Really Work?

Positive affirmations are phrases and statements we repeat to overcome negative thoughts and behaviors. Positive affirmations can help you improve your mood, change unhealthy habits, and reduce stress.

But the real question is, do they work? Yes and no! 

Research shows that certain neural pathways are activated when we use positive affirmations. That means when we repeat a positive statement about ourselves, our brains are more likely to believe it and make better decisions.

However, another study shows that affirmations only work for people who already have a positive outlook on life, giving them an extra boost of motivation. For those with a negative outlook on life, affirmations do little to change their negative thought patterns.

So, if your self-esteem is low and affirmations don’t seem to be helping, it might be time to talk to a therapist or other mental health professional.

That doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t give them a try. You can always use positive affirmations as a supplement to other therapies.

One of the best ways to use positive affirmations is to tailor your phrases to fit specific situations. In other words, make your affirmations as personal as possible.

For example, the generic phrase “I am strong and healthy” might not have much impact if you don’t believe it. 

On the other hand, saying a phrase like “I’m not too pleased with my fitness level, but I am committed to moving my body more” might be more effective because the statement is tailored to your situation and feeling, and believing it can help motivate you to take action.

The key takeaway here is that your words matter. It reminds me of Proverbs 18:21, which says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” 

So use your words wisely. And choose words that elevate you.

How to Use Positive Affirmations

There are tons of ways to practice affirmations. Here are some tips on how to use them:

1. Say them aloud: Reciting your affirmations out loud can help to solidify them in your mind. You can repeat them in the mirror, in a quiet place, or even while you’re out and about.
2. Write them down: Writing your affirmations serves two purposes: it helps you visualize your goal and keep track of your progress. Write them on a physical item, like notecards or post-it notes. Then, put them in visible places where you can read them daily, like your bedside table, desk, bathroom mirror, or even your car dashboard. You can also save them as your phone lock screen.
3. Visualization: Another great way to help make affirmations stick is to visualize what it would look and feel like to achieve your goal. Close your eyes for a few minutes, imagine achieving what you set out to do, and then focus on how that accomplishment makes you feel. 
4. Use them regularly: Practicing daily positive affirmations will be more effective than doing them on a whim. Doing so will help to retrain your brain and reprogram it to think positively. You can add them to your morning or self-care routine and repeat them for a few minutes each day.
