Words are one of the most impressive tools of creation in our power. Humans are born free of self-judgment; it is words that are spoken to us and that we speak to ourselves which make us who we are.
To demonstrate the might of words think of a friend who doesn’t realize their own worth. Everyone has one of these friends. It’s the friend that is indisputably skinny, but perceives herself fat. She’s the one that orders vegetable juice for lunch because she can’t afford the calories! You give her an unfathomable expression as her rib cage is visible through her shirt, but she just shrugs as she is convinced of her reality.
While your friend is clearly living in a distorted reality, it is her truth. The first time she heard that she should watch her weight, she also thought it absurd. But then she heard it again and again and again. “Watch your weight,” said her mother. “Men don’t date fat women,” said her brother. “Size 0 is what men consider sexy,” said her pop culture magazines. Words influence. The repetition of words influence until we eventually bring them to life with our actions.
Has someone delivered words during your break-up that made you feel confused, unlovable, rejected, or that you will never love again? Are you saying words that reinforce these types of messages to yourself? You may consider this a natural part of the break-up process; however, reinforcing negative words in your mind is slowing down your recovery and will hinder your future ability to meet new people. It’s time to make a change. We all act under the influence of words, so it is not possible to just block them out. What we can do is use words to our advantage in the form of positive affirmations.
Positive affirmations recreate the messages we send to ourselves and communicate to the world. Positive affirmations are not just new age fluff: they can act as a tangible healing agent in our lives. Write down an affirmation to yourself that you will repeat every morning and every evening for the next week. Repeat this affirmation in your mind over and over again. Humans think an average of 60,000 thoughts per day, so it’s not too much to ask to squeeze in your affirmation at least 1000 times!
Write your own affirmation or use the healing words of others. Below are some great affirmations that you can use. Let us know if you have any favorites by posting comments.
Tip! Always say and write your positive affirmation in the present tense.
• I am positive, hopeful, and optimistic that I am on my authentic path in life.
• The difficult challenges in my life are brief and are replaced by happy moments.
• I have complete faith and trust in God, the universe, myself, and my possibilities.
• I radiate friendship and warmth to all and, in return, receive the same.

Light fills my days, my nights, and my heart. This is the one I say to myself before I sleep.
I flow freely and lovingly with life. I love myself. I know only good awaits me at every turn. I let go of all expectations. I say this every single morning.
Sharon – thank you, I like that
Acceptance is the answer to ALL my problems today. I know I can not have peace until I accept this aloneness.
Thank you God for this wonderful day. No one can make me feel miserable. God’s love is my strenght. Have faith always!

I am patiently loving the flow of understanding and the life long last healing that once ruled me from the darkness of ignorance. Those dupe me baby days no longer exist and heartbrake no longer has the capability to keep me from the love I live to reliease and recieve. I believe this is without a doubt the path that brought me to love and accepting me yes ME that was all I ever truely lacked and its Wack yet nothing is truer for me being decieved lets call it a double dupe cause I denied what I percieved so its on me. anyways the love lost the pain the cost has come back to fill me beyond my brims rim with more than I could even have imagined. praise God for what I understand today is years away from the man I was not so long ago. the past is past.

I am COMPLETELY Honest with myself as I am committed to Idenifiing and Challenging every thought every fixed belief and every behavior that resists the Changes needed to heal to grow to Experience all that is LOVE that the here and NOW reveals to me. Let go and flow. In this moment is all I ever wanted all I need as well as all I have. Accountability and Acceptance are gifts I give to me. FREE. Free from blame. Free to Experiencing all that this moment has to offer . Thank you pain for revealing the power to Change and take the ranes of Responsibility .
YOU are all beatiful spirits that deserve all that is love and good and virtuous . Concieve it, Believe it, Achieve it. Activate as I do here and now, LOVE come to us all and now I need only to get out of the way and Let it be. Oh yes, sweet drudgery I work on me to be able to give and willing to recieve all . soon if not already feel what pulsates to you now, upon the very force that is and created the universe. Love from me to you. in siklence I feel you too.
We are in control only of our thoughts, behaviors, and actions. But the words we say to ourselves can bring us up and break us free from the intense pain or knock us down and bind us/enmesh us to the excruciating pain from our lost love. The choices we make are ours to make, and we decide what words we’ll say to ourselves..it’s my choice to love myself; to take care of ME. No more torturing myself with negative self-talk.
I stare up at the stars and cry, ”God, can you hear me?” I look around and I feel the life that surrounds me. I am not alone, I have never been alone. God has always been with me from the beginning, and will remain with me till the end and beyond- Life is an adventure, Life is a rocky path of a joy mixed with tears. I will meet each and everyday with tenacity and faith, and I will live my life and embrace everything I must traverse. I have been blessed with a strength, I have been blessed with a Heart. I love you God, I love myself and I love my family.
*This isn’t anything I say to myself, but I felt like saying it..I will have to think of a good thought to tell myself before I sleep.*
dont b a coward in life stand up for yourself
I look in the looking glass, directly into my eyes. the windows of the soul. and I say It’s okay Bailey, I love you, and we will make it through one tear at a time. Then piece together a vision board, taking magazines based on health, wellness, healing … creating a future mind, allowing the pictures to be soaked into the subconscious mind. Place this next to the looking glass, next to a window where the sunrises or sunsets, anywhere of supreme significance. Face the facts and let the made up ideals slowly fade. Allow the human emotions to rise and fall ~ Wow, writing this is even helping me. Realize that your a multidimensional being and posses great gifts of transformation.
Sharon I want to tell you I believe you nailed it in every way, consise full of feeling absolutely positive. you “get it ” now if I may I send you and all who have the want and grace to recieve,Peace, Love, and every gift that is pure and good. May the laws of reciprolality fill you up. Feel yourself embracing these gifts and the universe expanding as your healing reveals to you the hidden gifts that this heartbreak uncovered. Fullfill that purpose and give those gifts to your family, your partner and yourselfs.
Today I will be the best woman I can be for no one but myself.
Dear Friends, what i think is very difficult to cure a broken heart, because it takes seconds to break , and to years to cure. But what i would say that if yu want to cure u should have to give a pure love and commitment that this will be your life a biggest achievement.
Please freinds don’t ever try to break the heart who loves , care , respect, you.
Be the best to love.
