Affirmations tell your subconscious mind – and the universe – what’s true and possible for you. I’m sharing 100 of my favorite affirmations to attract the life you want, plus a set of free positive affirmation wallpaper images for your phone or tablet! [Jump to my list of affirmations]
If I were to ask you, “Is there an area of your life you’d love to improve?“, how would you answer?
My guess is, it would probably be a resounding “YES!”
Good news! There is a proven tool that you can use no matter what specific areas you want to improve in your life. And you can start right now, for free.
I’ve found that one of the simplest ways to create the results you want, as well as add a new habit of positivity to encourage a growth mindset in your life, is to incorporate positive affirmations into your daily routine.
What are Affirmations?
Affirmations are positive, present tense statements of confirmation, validity and belief.
Your own affirmations are powerful tools that declare to your subconscious mind and the universe what you hold to be true and possible about yourself and the world.
But, here’s the catch– affirmations work both ways. In fact, we are constantly using affirmations, whether we realize it or not.
Our thought processes impact our beliefs, and our beliefs impact our behavior. Therefore, your thoughts and beliefs often end up dictating how you respond to the things in your daily life, even if you don’t realize it.
Most people tend to unconsciously affirm the opposite of what they want and intend to create.
For example, they may repeat unhelpful thoughts like, “I don’t have enough money” or “I’m fat,” continuing to affirm those undesired results over time.
In order to create your best life and step into the full potential of a new reality – and to do so with ease – the first step is to tap into the power of affirmations. After all, if you’re already unconsciously affirming negative thoughts, wouldn’t you rather use that same energy to create positive change?
I once heard that the universe’s only response to our requests is, “Yes.”
So no matter what we ask for with our thoughts, attention, and vibration, whether unconsciously or deliberately, the universe is always granting our wishes.
Daily affirmations are a powerful way to boldly state to the universe what you intend to attract and create.
What is the Purpose of Positive Affirmations? Do They Really Work?
It might be difficult to believe that a simple statement could play such a significant role when it comes to manifesting better things in our lives.
Not only are positive affirmations a great way to work with the Law of Attraction, but the impact of affirmations when it comes to making life changes and supporting personal growth have also been well-documented.
In fact, this MRI study showed that practicing self-affirmation in the form of positive mantras activated neural pathways associated with increasing self worth and lowering stress.
Researchers also found that affirmations can predict positive changes in behavior. In other words, study participants who used affirmations were more likely to successfully make changes in their behavior, leading to long term, positive life changes!

Easy Ways to Incorporate Daily Positive Affirmations Into Your Life:
Start your mornings with daily positive affirmations: Doing this simple practice first thing in the morning will set you up for success and infuse you with positive energy to face the new day with hope and optimism.
Use affirmations throughout your day: As you face challenges, demands, and stress throughout the day, call a mental timeout. Take a deep breath and spend a minute or two reciting positive affirmations to enter the next phase of your day in a state of clarity.
Say affirmations as you transition from work to home: Stop and affirm the experience you want to create, how you want to interact with your family, and the good things you desire for the rest of your day.
End your day with positive affirmations: It’s a great way to end your evening on a high note of positivity, gratitude, and optimism. (And, affirmations have been shown to decrease stress and improve sleep!)

Dear Ms. Morrisey,
I have received several emails from you inviting to attend your freeaster classes. I even attempted to attend to attend one; it was a fail because I lacked focus and confidence.
I have been in a difficult life it would appear as though I was born into a dark hole.
A life full of sadness a trauma that has spilled over throughout three generations.
If I am the one to break the cycle, I thank you and I thank the universe today, I did not ignore this message.
Thank you, for giving me hope again.
Joy
