A very sweet follower of mine reached out to me recently and said I should write for brides on their wedding day. At first, I thought no, I can’t relate because I’m not married. However, I couldn’t stop thinking about the idea. I love weddings and have been to over 35 because I have a large extended family. I’m also currently in a loving relationship and it’s not unusual for me to think about my future wedding day with my partner. When that day comes I know affirmations like these would be what I need. I know I’ll have to work on my anxiety around my wedding day as many brides do.

I hope the bride reading this knows her wedding will be wonderful simply because it’s her special day.

WHAT’S AN AFFIRMATION?

A positive statement is used to help you overcome negative thoughts and ideas. The message is usually written in the first person and can be long or short sentences. The purpose of affirmations is to develop a habit of positive thinking and self-empowerment.

WHY ARE AFFIRMATIONS IMPORTANT?

Affirmations can help you change your mindset on a difficult idea or situation. They can increase self-esteem, gratitude, and help you overcome loss for example. With all the distractions of the world, affirmations help you remind yourself daily of what is your priority in your personal healing journey.

HOW CAN I USE AFFIRMATIONS?

Affirmations can be used in various ways but the important part is to continuously do them. It’s like working out! One workout will make you feel good but it won’t change your body. You can practice affirmations by reading them out loud, writing them down, or simply having them saved as your lock screen. Interacting with affirmations daily on the topic you choose will improve your life for the better. My recommendation is to get creative with where you feel you will best use them. An example would be to write an affirmation down on a sticky note and hang it on your mirror. Say it every day for a week and then create a new one the following week. It’s all about you.
