Positive Affirmations To Improve Your Mindset
Positive thinking starts with you. Your body hears everything you think. Your power exists in the space between your ears. Everything you are trying to achieve from improving your health to becoming happier person, it all starts in your head. And repeating short positive affirmations regularly throughout your day is a great tool to help foster positive changes in your life.
Why Positive Affirmations Work
It may seem silly if you’re new to this concept but using positive affirmations to help change your thought patterns is a real thing. Positive affirmations are positive words, phrases, and statements that you repeat in your mind or even out loud to alter your mental state.
According to the National Science Foundation, the average person has about 12,000 to 60,00 thoughts per day. Of those, 80% are negative self-talk. Apparently, most of us focus on the negative without even realizing it. I have heard it said that if you talked to your friends the way you talk to yourself, you’d have no friends.
And I’m a believer. I’ve coached thousands of women to better health, and the work always starts with the subject of mindset because it’s hard to stick with new eating or exercise habits if you continue to have the attitude of self-sabotage.

Therefore, I focus on positive daily affirmation quotes. Positive affirmations are part of what I teach and who I am.
In addition to years of personal experience, there is science from Mayo Clinic and many others, to prove that your ability to think positively can successfully reduce stress, reduce anxiety, increase confidence and even make you more resistant to illnesses.
