Positive affirmations are a powerful way of liberating yourself and sending positive vibes to the universe.

They can be grounding, life-saving, energizing, motivating and inspiring.

And they work miraculously when it comes to taking good care of your body, mind and soul.

Yes, they’re very controversial and many people couldn’t care less about repeating affirmations. I used to be one of those, but when I began recovering from my eating disorder, positive affirmations helped me like nothing else.

By starting your day with the repetition of one or more positive affirmations, you set the right intention for the day, brighten your mood and up your confidence.

This is why I am going to share my 77 favorite positive affirmations with you.

It may feel awkward at first to say these words to yourself and you won’t even believe them to be true. Don’t let that discourage you from actively using affirmations as a way to take care of yourself.

Writing them down, creating a little special card with the words, putting post-it notes on your mirrors, next to your computer, your refrigerator or using it as your computer screen will reinforce the messages and will train your subconscious mind to tune into the truth of self-love more and more often.
