Affirmations only work when we commit to consistently practicing them. This is because it takes time and effort to rewire old thought patterns into the new, positive ones that our affirmations introduce. Often, when beginning to practice with a specific affirmation we may not feel that it is true. It may even feel uncomfortable to repeat at first. The only way to overcome this is by devoting ourselves to daily practice with our affirmations as we cultivate a newfound sense of self belief. 

Setting aside time for your affirmation practice does not have to be hard or time consuming. In fact, incorporating affirmations into your daily life can be easy, enjoyable, and stress-reducing. 

Read on to explore my top 3 tips for incorporating affirmations into your daily life;

1. Listen on the go! One of the great things about affirmations is that we can sit back, relax, and soak up the positivity. An effective way for busy folks to practice affirmations is to listen to them as you cook, complete household chores, or while you sleep. 
2. Sticky note surprises. Write down the affirmations you need to hear the most on sticky notes and put them around your home, in your bedroom, and/or even in your car or office. Commit to mindfully reading or repeating them every time you come across one. 
3. Journaling. Set aside 5 minutes to write down a few affirmations that feel supportive and uplifting to you in the morning. Reread them throughout the day and reflect on how they make you feel. 

Affirmations are always there to redirect your thoughts, provide comfort, and guide you towards greater wellness.
