Standing in a resolute stance, you articulate your own affirmation. When formulating an affirmation, it is important that it does not feel like a lie. Avoid negative and limiting words or phrases and distance yourself from things and people that create negative or limiting energy within you.

Affirmations retrain our mind to behave differently so that we may easily manifest a certain outcome. A study published in the journal Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience (1) used MRI to reveal that practicing self-affirmation activates the reward centers in your brain. It fires up your neural pathways and makes changes to those areas of the brain that makes you happy and positive.
