Take our word for it Back yourself with these uplifting affirmation cards Some days we feel like we’re on top of the world, and other days we need to have a word with ourselves. But it makes all the difference if those words are kind. Gone are the days when we would frustratedly hiss at ourselves in the mirror to ‘get a grip’ – negative selftalk is so last season. Pepping yourself up with positive affirmations has the power to transform your psychology. And we’ve got the science to back it up. After looking at the way that our brains respond to affirmations, a 2015 study published in Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience found that self-affirmations activate the brain systems associated with rewards and self-image. In other words, they’re good for us on a neurobiological level. This month, we’re bringing you a set of positive affirmation cards. Cut them out and display them on your dressing table, your desk at work, or anywhere you feel like you need a boost. As the darker days begin to draw in, it can be easy to lose the positive spark that flourished throughout the summer months. If you feel like you need to pick up your energy this autumn, we hope that these affirmation cards will do the trick. We all need to learn to back ourselves. It doesn’t happen overnight, and it can take us a lifetime to unlearn bad self-talk habits. But take the first step to a kinder, more uplifted you. Chose to believe in yourself. You’ve got this, we know it.
