 THE POWER OF MICRO AFFIRMATIONS: A GUIDE TO BOOSTING YOUR DAILY LIFE

Micro affirmations are short, powerful statements that can help you cultivate a positive mind-set, build confidence, and achieve your goals. They’re called “micro” because they’re brief, often just a few words, and can be easily incorporated into your daily life.

What are Micro Affirmations?

Micro affirmations are positive statements that you repeat to yourself, often in the present tense, to rewire your mind and focus on the good. They’re designed to be short, memorable, and easy to repeat, making them a great tool for busy lives.

Examples of Micro Affirmations are

- “I am enough.”

- “I trust myself.”

- “I am capable and strong.”

- “I choose happiness.”

- “I am grateful for today.”

1. Morning Routine: Start your day by repeating micro affirmations in front of the mirror, while brushing your teeth, or during meditation.

2. Throughout the Day: Use micro affirmations as reminders on your phone, or write them down on sticky notes and place them in strategic spots.

3. Before Challenges: Repeat micro affirmations before facing a challenge or stressful situation to boost confidence and calm your nerves.

4. Before Bed: End your day with micro affirmations to reflect on the good things that happened and set intentions for the next day.
