I’m taking this category into a new direction as of this week. Although challenging myself to overcome anxiety has been rewarding, I want to test out positive affirmations as a new way to calm anxiety. Choosing to see the positive or reaffirming to myself that the world is a kind, loving, and generous place is another way for me to calm anxious thoughts and fears.
Here’s the plan:
Each week on Sunday, I’ll post the affirmation that I’m going to repeat to myself each morning. The following Saturday evening, we’ll see how it went in terms of changing my attitude and how much my anxiety was impacted. The affirmation I choose each week will make me face a phobia, anxious, or negative thought that I’ve been holding onto for my whole life.
My goal is to have a totally different outlook in a few month’s time. I’m working on unlearning negative self-talk and habitually being kind and forgiving. Wish me luck & Happy Thanksgiving!
