In recent years manifesting has become very popular, and you can read about it all over social media. It has grown in popularity for the simple reason that it works and truly has the power to completely transform your life.
The Universe is composed of energy, and the Law of Attraction works on all levels – from microcosm to macrocosm.
The Law of Attraction states that like attracts like. It means that for you to consciously create your life, your thoughts, actions, and beliefs should vibrate in resonance with the experiences you desire to attract.
Affirmations are one of the most powerful tools for reprogramming your subconscious beliefs. It is important to write them correctly so your subconscious mind won’t reject them.
What is the correct way of writing affirmations, and how to use them?
To write affirmations for the Law of Attraction to work, you need to get to know yourself and do deep introspection to discover your true motivations. You need to remove distractions from your life and things that don’t serve you. You need to word affirmations correctly so they will be implanted deeply into your subconscious mind and repeat them daily.
Affirmations are a great tool if you desire to consciously design your life path. If you desire to become more successful, happy, healthy, wealthy, attract a new relationship, or improve the existing ones, affirmations can be of great help.
Here are some of the most powerful tips for using affirmations most effectively.
9 Tips to Write Law of Attraction Affirmations Correctly
Affirmations are designed to be like seeds that you implant into your subconscious mind so they can grow deep roots and become your new beliefs.
For this to happen, you need the soil, your subconscious mind, to be susceptible and fertile and the seeds to be of high quality so they get absorbed and can bloom into your new life experience.
The daily repetition and additional practices, such as meditation, are like watering these seeds. The more love and attention you give to your daily affirmation practice, the greater results it will bring.
1. Get To Know Yourself
The better you get to know and understand yourself, the more effective and powerful affirmations you will be able to write. The deeper you understand yourself, your desires, traumas, deficiencies, wants, and needs, the better you will know what would serve you most.
When we don’t know ourselves well enough, we might focus on superficial things, such as an item we would like to purchase or receive as a gift. But when we explore our subconscious mind, we might discover that the item we desire is our way of compensating for our feelings of unworthiness.
Then you can use affirmations to reprogram your feelings of unworthiness, and as a result, you will become confident and develop a sense of high self-worth.
These feelings will in turn give you the tools necessary to purchase what you have been craving and even much more. Therefore – the better you know yourself, the better your affirmations will serve you.
Great tools for self-discovery can be meditation, journaling, individual psychotherapy, and self-help books and lectures.
2. Journal
Journaling is a truly magical tool when it comes to forming a deeper and healthier relationship with yourself. In your daily life, your thoughts and feelings form something like a cloud that surrounds you.
Often you might not be consciously aware of what exactly you are thinking and feeling as these patterns have become habitual for you. As you journal, you are putting your thoughts in a coherent form, which makes you organize and structure them.
It can bring a great sense of clarity and liberation, and you can discover a lot about yourself.
3. Know Your True Motivations
When desiring something to change or improve in your life, ask yourself what is your motivation behind it.
Are you trying to satiate the needs of your soul, impress others, make someone jealous, or make your parents happy?
You must be clear on your motivations as it will purify your intentions and bring you a lot of self-awareness.
Ideally, you should focus on manifesting and attracting only things that bring you genuine joy and happiness and not something that you are doing to impress someone else, including your parents.
Keep in mind that you are living your own unique life, and your happiness should be at the center of it.
4. Look for Inspiration
Think of people, places, and experiences that excite and inspire you above all else.
- How would you like to live?
- What is your dream job?
- How would you like to contribute to humanity, and what your greatest passions are?
Answers to these questions will help you align with your life mission and discover what type of affirmations you should write.
5. Connect With Your Inner Child
The inner child is a part of you that remembers everything that brings you true excitement and joy. Remember when you used to do things just because they were fun and not because you were trying to get something as a result?
As grownups, we often stop exploring and having fun and focus only on practical aspects of life with certain end-result in mind. This launches an aging process and makes us tired on mental, physical, and emotional levels.
Try to connect with things that bring the most excitement to you. Meditate to connect with your inner child. Feel what it feels like to be free and not disturbed by a single worry in the world.
- What would you do if you had enough money and didn’t have to worry about working?
- What would you do if you could do anything at all?
Answers to these questions will show you how you can raise your frequency and follow your joy. They might hold an answer to how you should write your affirmations.
6. Word Affirmations Correctly
For your affirmations to be effective, you have to be very specific with how you word them. Make sure you write your affirmations in a way that doesn’t sound like a lie to your subconscious mind.
Don’t try to bulldoze your subconscious mind with affirmations that contradict reality.
For example, if you are very poor, saying to yourself: “I am rich. I can afford anything I want,” will be a direct contradiction to your experience, and your subconscious mind will reject this type of affirmation.
Instead, you can say: “The Universe is abundant, it provides everything I need. I am taken care of, and my life is improving every day”.
Wording affirmations smartly and subtly will help you steadily move towards your goals and improve your life experience.
7. Remove What Doesn’t Serve You
If you work with the Law of Attraction and use your affirmations daily but are surrounded by negative people and experiences or consume news that constantly makes you feel bad, it will be counterproductive and much harder for you to enter your desired reality.
It is similar to making a step forward and right away taking a step back.
Examine all areas of your life closely and discover everything that is holding you back. See how you can transform or eliminate them from your life.
For example, if you desire to have a beautiful house and the wardrobe of your dreams but hold on to all the old items in your house, including old clothes that don’t inspire you anymore, you are wasting your energy and slowing down your manifestations.
8. Use Affirmations Daily
The best time to repeat your affirmations is in the morning as soon as you wake up, in the evening, before you fall asleep, or right after meditation.
At these times, your subconscious mind is the most susceptible to reprogramming and receiving new beliefs. Repeat your affirmations throughout the day.
You can also place a note of them under your pillow while you sleep and carry them written on a piece of paper in your wallet or another place where you will see them frequently.
9. Trust the Universe
Have full trust that the Universe hears and sees you. You are a beloved child of the Universe, and the Universe has never turned its back on you, even if you were going through painful experiences.
Keep in mind that you are supported in whatever you believe in, therefore, choose your beliefs mindfully!
Summary
Your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions set your vibrational frequency and attract like experiences. If you spend a lot of time worrying about the future and past, you are wasting the energy that you can be investing in creating the life of your dreams.
Affirmations are an immensely powerful tool that can help you shift your habitual thought patterns. Have full trust that you can reprogram your old beliefs, and attract the life of your dreams!
