Affirmations are positive statements or phrases that people repeat to themselves with the intention of challenging and overcoming self-sabotaging and negative thoughts. I used them myself, and I believe they helped me enormously when I was at my lowest point in life. The basic idea is that by consistently repeating positive affirmations, we can reprogramme our subconscious mind, promote self-belief, and cultivate a healthier state of mind and attitude. There is some science and research behind it. Eckhart Tolle, Deepak Chopra, and Joe Dispenza are among the proponents of positive thinking, mindfulness, and the power of the mind. They have written extensively about the connection between thoughts, emotions, and overall well-being.
Dr. Joe Dispenza, in particular, emphasises the role of positive affirmations and visualisation techniques in rewiring the brain. When it comes to brain function, affirmations and positive thinking can influence neural pathways and activate specific regions in the brain associated with emotions, motivation, and self-perception. The repeated use of positive affirmations may lead to changes in neural patterns, encouraging the brain to create new, positive thought patterns while weakening existing negative ones. This process, known as neuroplasticity, suggests that the brain has the remarkable ability to reorganise itself, allowing people to form new habits and beliefs.
The effectiveness of affirmations may vary from person to person, and their impact is often influenced by a person’s belief in the affirmation and the context in which they are used. Maybe worth a go?
