Whether you use a post-it system or simply stare into

your mirror each morning, positive affirmations are key to changing your outlook.

Put some positivity into your thoughts and it could help to raise your spirits.

You are what you think and thoughts plus spoken words have the power to either

harm or empower so be careful of what you speak into your life.

Always remind yourself that you are special; that there

is no other like you and God was so pleased with you that He broke the mould. There

is no need for a replica because you, in your perfectly imperfect state, are

enough as you are.

The following are a few affirmations or mantras you can

chant, say or whisper to yourself each day. At first, it may sound strange coming

from our own mouth, they may sound like self-praise but often we do not praise

ourselves enough. It is not about being arrogant, it’s about loving yourself so

much that the universe will show its appreciation by loving you too. It is

mentally taking care of yourself before you can take care of others. Start now!

time.
