π I am quoted in Oprah Daily on the topic of positive affirmations.
π I find that "lipstick on the mirror"/toxic positivity self-talk to be unhelpful. These types of statements can indeed make someone feel worse because they don't feel genuine.
ππ½ββοΈ One thing that can be helpful is if you can ask yourself, βIf my best friend was struggling, what would I tell them?β Then say to yourself what you would tell them and see if it feels right for you.
π Here's another example. Say a person values education and is studying for a particularly difficult exam. They can tell themselves, βStudying for this test feels overwhelming and I will also be one step further to my goals once it's over.β βIβve done hard things before and I can do this too.β
πΆ Other ideas are to use your favorite quote, lyrics from a song, or lines from a loved book to use for your affirmations.
β‘οΈ Itβs all about making genuine affirmations. Donβt force anything.
