My Favorite Positive Affirmations


Positive thinking has helped me greatly in the past.  I learned early on that thinking positive isn’t something that comes natural to everyone.  For some, we have to change our brain.  I started with positive affirmations written on index cards.  It didn’t take long and it started to work.  Here are some of my fave’s.
  1. Today is a very happy day.  I choose to rejoice
  2. I am confident
  3. I know I can depend on God to save me
  4. I am beautiful inside and outside
  5. I am worthy of love
  6. God loves me just as I am
  7. I have overcome all my trials in life, and will continue to do so with God’s help
  8. I am a positive thinker
  9. I am happy
  10. I am free of anger and resentment
  11. I forgive (person’s name who you want to forgive) for (the offense that they did / said to you)
  12. For singles:  I am fulfilled as a single woman / man
  13. I am at peace with my past
  14. I am sexy
  15. I love working out
  16. I am strong
  17. I will keep my faith in God for all my needs and desires
  18. I am independent
  19. I was made for more
  20. It’s OK to say ‘No’ to others requests when I feel they are crossing my personal boundaries

~~~~~ You have changed my sadness into a joyful dance; you have taken away my sorrow and surrounded me with joy. So I will not be silent; I will single praise to you. Lord, you are my God; I will give you thanks forever. ~Ps 30:11-12 (GNT) 


Finally, I've just recently started writing as a blogger for the International Bipolar Foundation.  I am one of more than a dozen bloggers internationally.  I will post a blog, on average, about once per month.  Please follow at:
