Scientific Affirmations For Healthy Self Esteem

Here is set of affirmations for self esteem I am submitting for the benefit of readers.

In this article we will see how and why positive affirmations work against low self esteem and give a list of affirmations that will create success for ourselves and happier expectations. What we think of ourselves is the controlling factor in the decisions we make and those decisions dictate the course of our lives. These affirmations were written by a true master of the art, a woman who has gone from extreme self hate and self defeat to a very advanced and successful tactician in the game of life. They serve as excellent examples of how to write life changing affirmations for yourself.

When we repeat short positive statements about ourselves, called affirmations, in the course of our day and when we intentionally sit uninterruptedly telling ourselves good things about ourselves and how our life is our subconscious mind accepts those things as true. It believes whatever we tell it about anything. If we tell it we are worthless and deserve failure and discomfort it reacts as if those are definite facts. It will accept healthy self respect and happy expectations equally. To affect the change we want we always choose affirmations that are worded grammatically as if what we want has already happened. If, instead of repeating “I will begin to feel better about myself” we repeat “I am a fine person in every way” we change the way the inner mind defines itself. Then our strong, deeper unseen mind takes action in kind in our lives. This happens because we all are strongly compelled to achieve and maintain consistency within ourselves. Saying something “will” happen instead of saying it already is places the goal always in the future preventing it to be a fact in the present. The more frequently we affirm to ourselves we are what we want to be the more strongly and solidly it is established in every way. Telling ourselves we feel good will cause us to feel good.We need to practice our affirmations daily to have the best success.

But there is a way to go much deeper into the power of the soul to bring about change in our lives through affirmations. In his book Scientific Healing Affirmations Paramahansa Yogananda tells exactly how the sages of the Eastern World apply meditation, relaxation, concentration, will power, feeling, and the mechanics of the cosmos to achieve miraculous results. He describes a system through which the soul can literally heal the body of any physical or mental infirmity. Yogananda demonstrated an absolutely beautiful attitude toward God, others, and above all, himself, in his many insightful books on life and the science of Yoga. The book is short and easy to understand but you can effectively change your outlook on life with just properly worded affirmations repeated intently with good concentration and the feeling of conviction. Scientific Healing Affirmations is for those who want a deeper understanding of the process in order to bring about physical healing of the body and mind.
