What Are Positive Affirmations?
Positive affirmations are little bursts of positivity that can work wonders on re-framing your mindset.
They’re uplifting statements can be used to nudge positivity into your thoughts, replacing any less-than-positive things that might have been occupying your attention.
Do They Work?
Yes. Empowering self-talk is considered pseudo-science by some, and it’s good to be skeptical. That said, affirmations have been researched in scientific studies. Timely affirmations appear to be able to provide benefits that can last for years. It turns out that something that gives you a gentle boost when you glance over it can be a good thing.
How Can They help me?
Here’s three ways they can:
By promoting a positive mental attitude and turning down the chatter of your inner critic.
Including positive affirmations into your daily routine can boost your mental well-being and resilience, by replacing negative beliefs with more positive ones.
Affirmations can rewire your thought patterns, paving the way for a more optimistic and confident outlook. It’s all part of showing yourself some love and compassion.
VEEB Projects made an Affirmation device?
Everything we’ve said so far could be achived with lots of post-it notes dotted around a space you spend time in. That can get messy quickly and they will always be in the same colour, in the same boring handwriting.
Imagine having a small haven of positivity right in your home or office - a place where you can catch a moment of inspiration, a reminder to “slow down'“ or to simply connect with your thoughts.
