About this deal
Always be a first-rate version of yourself instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.” -Judy Garland
If you want to change the way you feel about yourself, first you have to change the way you think about yourself. Stellar, J. E., Cohen, A., Oveis, C., & Keltner, D. (2015). Affective and physiological responses to the suffering of others: Compassion and vagal activity. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 108(4), 572-585. DOI: 10.1080/17439760.2016.1209544
Stand in front of the mirror. Position your feet shoulder-width apart in a confident posture. Take deep breaths and look into your own eyes. Avoid Self-Criticism Lange, A., Richard, R., Gest, A., de Vries, M., & Lodder, L. (1998). The effects of positive self-instruction: A controlled trial. Cognitive Therapy and Research, 22(3), 225-236. DOI.org/10.1023/A:1018740725281 By learning to practice positive affirmations at a young age, kids can become much more prepared to use them when facing difficulties later in life (Bloch, 2015). These are very simple affirmations because the easier they are for young kids to remember, the more likely children will be able to practice them without an adult’s help.
Positive affirmations can help to shift your mindset and perspective, allowing you to focus on the good instead of the negative. When used regularly, affirmations can help boost confidence, build resilience, and provide a sense of peace. Another reason why mirror work can make us feel uncomfortable is that it exposes the vulnerable and neglected parts of our inner selves.Mirror affirmations are a simple and powerful tool for improving your mental and emotional wellbeing. By repeating positive affirmations to yourself while looking in the mirror, you can cultivate a more positive mindset, build self-confidence, and increase your overall sense of happiness and fulfillment.
