Yoga: Personal Affirmations
Awareness of your thoughts and changing the dialog...
One of the benefits of practicing yoga is the growing awareness one develops of the body and the mind.
As you listen to your thoughts, you find that there are litle voices telling you things over and over again.
Often these messages are negative and filled with emotions and memories of past events.
Affirmations are one way to change the dialog in your head. They help disipate negative emotions
and thoughts and help one move on from the past.
Self-affirmations are:
Healing, positive self-scripts you give to yourself to counter your negative thoughts and images.
Vehicles by which you can free yourself from the over-dependence on other's opinions,
attitudes, or feelings about you. They can lead to you feeling good about yourself.
The visualization of a new order and sense in your life, which you can work toward achieving.
Ways to take personal responsibility for your health and emotional stability.
Learning tools to help you let go of negative emotional baggage you have been carrying. Teach yourself
to deal with your life in a realistic and positive manner.
Tools to help resolve feelings from the past. Now you can face the present with a less obstructed
view.
A means to give yourself permission to grow, to change, to take risks, to rise up, and to
create a better life for yourself.
A way to recognize your rights and affirming your claim on them, giving you an equitable
chance of achieving your fullest potential.
Success prophecies that, when visualized, imagined, or believed in, do come true.
A positive affirmation can lift your SPIRIT and help you achieve your goals.
