Why are “I am beautiful” affirmations effective?

“I am beautiful” affirmations work because we are telling ourselves the kind and uplifting words we are so desperate to hear. Instead of engaging in negative self talk when it comes to our beauty and appearance, we are interrupting this negativity, and replacing it with warm and loving words. 

The media portrays a certain ideal in terms of beauty, and we often internalize this message without even realizing. If we don’t meet this very narrow standard, we can begin to think we aren’t enough, and we must do something to appear more beautiful. 

This is where ‘I am beautiful” affirmations come into play. Telling ourselves we are beautiful, both on the inside and the outside, is a revolutionary act. We are taking our power back from negative programming provided by the media, and choosing to value our own beauty. 

In order for these affirmations to be effective, it’s important that you choose the right ones and focus on the right amount each day. There are many powerful affirmations to choose from the list above, so make sure you choose the ones that resonate with you the most. Select the ones that make you feel good, or put a smile on your face. Feel free to change or leave the ones that don’t resonate with you.

Once you have chosen how many affirmations you’d like to work with, it’s time to incorporate them into a daily practice. This doesn’t need to be complicated or time consuming. Even if you only have a few minutes to spare, you’ll still feel the benefits of positive affirmations.

How to use positive affirmations on a daily basis 

1. Write them on post-it notes. You can then place them in recognizable places around your home. This might include your fridge door, the bathroom mirror, and even on your bedside table. This means you will be reminded to repeat them, either aloud or in your mind, throughout the day. You might even write an affirmation letter to yourself to refer to when you need it.
2. Set a reminder on your phone or laptop with your favorite affirmation. Make sure you set it to notify you at least 3-5 times a day in order to keep repeating the affirmation. 
3. Include them on computer or phone wallpaper. This helps keep you motivated and focused throughout the day, and provides inspiration when you need it most. You can create your own on Canva, or visit my Instagram page for free downloadable wallpapers.
4. Write them in your journal. I enjoy writing down my three affirmations for the day first thing in the morning. It helps me establish a positive mindset, and motivates me to have a productive and fulfilling day. If you’re a morning person, here are my top tips for an effective morning routine. 
5. Use them during meditation. If you’re new to meditation, don’t worry. There are many amazing books and meditation apps that can teach you the basics. You don’t need to meditate for hours a day – even a few minutes are beneficial. You might choose a few affirmations to repeat during your practice, or you can also listen to guided affirmation meditations. 

These are only a few suggestions, but there are many more ways in which you can use affirmations on a daily basis. Enjoy getting creative, and consider trying a few different practices until you find one that feels right for you.
