Affirmation week

At the beginning of this week, choose an affirmation. It can be one you find somewhere, and I will give some examples at the end of this exercise, but from my experience it is best if you take the time to find/write your own affirmation. For that, sit down in a quiet place and have paper and pen ready. Relax yourself and quiet your mind. Then, focus your attention on your current life situation. What do you want to change?
Focus upon that topic and think about what you want to change. How should the situation look like? What do you want to / need to believe in? Try to picture it, and then condense the image into one sentence. It should be positive, short and concise.
Once you are happy with your affirmation, you can start using it. Say it aloud to yourself. If possible, write it on slips of paper and scatter them throughout your home. Use it as the text for your screen saver or background on your computer. Learn it by heart and repeat it often. Link it to something you do regularly and often, such as looking at a clock, and say/think it every time you do that. Use that affirmation during the week; experiment with it if the first one you choose does not fit. By the end of the week you should have one firmly in your mind. Continue to use it, to repeat it regularly, even if you remove the slips of paper and the screen saver after this week.

Examples:
Here and now I am a part of life, filled with strength and filled with love.
I am calm and relaxed.
I am a part of the love permeating the universe.
I am confident and strong.
