Affirmations are a great way to work on changing your mindset. For every negative phrase you say to yourself, you can then dismiss it, and replace it with something positive. Why should you replace negative thoughts with positive ones? Consider what your thoughts create. Your thoughts affect how you feel, not only in the form of emotion, but in the physical body. If it feels safe to do so, take a moment to think about something that has happened that makes you feel sad. Notice what happens with your breath and notice any sensations in the body. Notice how thoughts about sadness affect your entire being. Now, take a moment to remember something that made you feel happy. Again, notice what happens with your breath, any sensations in the physical body, and how thoughts about happiness affect your entire being.
Noticing how your thoughts affect you is incredibly empowering! We don’t always have control over our automatic thoughts – the thoughts that just show up out of nowhere. However, being aware of the thoughts that show up is the first step to changing them. The beauty of the mind is that you have the ability to focus your energy where you want it to go, and that starts with refocusing your thoughts when they go astray.
