![]() Research has shown that using affirmations to create positive thoughts about yourself can dramatically improve your body and mind. Here’s how to use affirmations in your life.

My obstacles are moving out of my way. My life is already a miracle of change and I’m shaping my destiny. I love everything about my body. My body is healthy and full of energy. I find opportunities to be kind everywhere I look. I am present in every moment. People treat me with kindness and respect, because I deserve it. I learn from my mistakes. I never give up.
