A positive affirmation is something good you say about yourself. It can be a good quality you have, something good you believe about yourself, or something good you've done. It can also be a quality you would like to have or something you would like to believe or do. Affirmations are like seeds planted in soil. When you intentionally care for them, they grow into a strong and healthy mindset.

​

An affirmation is really anything you say or think. Sometimes what we say to ourselves is quite negative and doesn’t create good experiences for us. The good news is we can retrain our thinking and speaking into positive patterns that encourage a healthy growth mindset and help to build self-esteem. Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself.

​

We encourage you to pay attention to your thoughts so that you can begin to eliminate the ones creating experiences you do not want in your life. Check out the positive affirmations you can use every day as you practice speaking affirming and kind words to yourself; words that make you feel good and know that you are enough. It takes practice, so be gentle with yourself and save space for grace on your journey to speaking kindly to yourself.

PS. Share the power of positive affirmations with your children to help build their confidence and boost their

self-esteem.  It will help them grow up great!
