Happiness and Well-Being With Daily Affirmations


Desiring change in your life or setting goals is easier by far to making change happen or achieving goals you have set. This process requires determination, appropriate attitude as well as a few tools you may find handy in getting the job done. One very powerful tool is daily affirmations, permitting these changes in your life to be more empowering and positive experiences.What is an Affirmation?You could consider affirmations as antonyms to complaints. They are opposites, in the same sense of a complaint being, “I’m so darned tired all the time.” The affirmation sounds more like, “I’m full of energy, alive and awake.”Any affirmation would represent goals we have, as well as any desirable changes. They’re positive statements made in the present tense. No rules apply when considering how appropriate an affirmation may be. They can be either spiritual, material or a combination of the two.Many people just have a strong desire to feel happy. We want to hold on to this sense of well-being which is sometimes elusive. This particular desire is tested simply by our day to day challenges, difficulties, and habits which find themselves instilled within us, producing a contrary effect. We have a desire for a sense of well-being; however we actually create the opposite effect. Daily affirmations can be helpers on the path to reaching this goal of well-being and general happiness. Listed here are some affirmations taken from Ernest Holmes’ The Science of Mind, published in 1926..- I am happy and complete today and forever. Within me is that which is Perfect and Complete. It is The Spirit of all Life, Truth, and Action. I am happy in the sure knowledge of the Inner Light. I cannot be sad or sorry, but must radiate Joy and Life, For Life is within me now. I am happy and complete..- Perfection is already accomplished. I do not have to wait for the Perfect Life. I am that Perfect Life here and now. Today I express the Limitless Life of the All Good. Today I manifest my Completion in every part of me. Today I am saved. Here and now I am healed.There is no need for longwinded paragraphs. Simple sentences designed specifically to uplift and inspire you are more than acceptable. For example,- I am entirely happy in mind, spirit and body.- I am radiant, happy and healthy.- I am filled with light and love, a radiant being.- I accept and love myself just as I am.- I am now able to express love to those I meet.Creating Personal AffirmationsWhat is it you want from life? This is a very difficult subject for many people to grip. If this is the case for you, ask yourself instead what it is you don’t want, and then following up with the opposite of this to create your affirmation. An example of this could be, “I don’t want to feel the stress related to my work.” The affirmation will become, “I know God gives me everything I require, no matter what challenges I face or what happens around me, I am at peace.”Use positivity and the present tense when phrasing your affirmations. Once you can easily identify your affirmation or affirmations, post them somewhere which allows you to see them often. Some suggestions could be the mirror in your bathroom, on your laptop or computer, your planner, or even your journal. Repeat these affirmations a minimum of three times a day, and turn to them when you’re feeling particularly challenged. Eventually your affirmations will be memorized, and turning to them in times of need will come automatically to you.A fantastic way to initiate this process is to choose daily affirmations designed to be embraced, as well as bring you a sense of happiness and well-being. Once you find the ball is rolling well, take time to consider tracking your affirmations beside the resulting changes in your life. This will enable you to evaluate other areas of your life which may require this same process, as you benefit from their practice in your life now.
