It’s easy to spiral into your thoughts of insecurity; however, it’s difficult to snap out of it once you’re in too deep.
Affirmations have some kind of magic that turns your negative thoughts into positive actions. For you to be able to power through, you have to cleanse your thoughts by flooding your mind with kind words. Repeating affirmations to yourself convinces you of your inner capabilities and pushes your worries aside. When you believe in your words, these translate into actions.
They say that you are what you think, and in this case, it’s kind of true. Reciting daily affirmations to yourself can help you find your center whenever you’re feeling overwhelmed by your emotions. To help you out, here’s some of the affirmations you can say out loud to gain balance and peace of mind.
Affirmations when you’re feeling insecure
- No matter how I look or feel, I am worth no less.
- My worth does not depend on others’ opinions of me. The only person I should seek for approval is none other than myself.
- I’m unique, capable and free. I refuse to be caged within the standards that society has set for me.
- I’m accepting who I am now so I can grow into the person I’ve always wanted to be.
- Focusing on my faults is a waste of my talent, intelligence and beauty. I have so much more to offer than what people think.
When you’re feeling tired
- Rest if you must, but never quit.
- I am human and I’m allowed to feel things as they come. My vulnerabilities don’t make me any less of a person.
- Admitting that I need help isn’t a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of great courage stirring within me.
- Self-care isn’t selfish, it’s the secret weapon to achieving my end goal.
- I will give myself enough time, love and nourishment to grow and recover.
