Positive Affirmations

 

I believe everyone should try recording some of these positive affirmations by a person they trust...


Due to the power  of suggestion, the power of repetition, and the placebo effect which just shows how powerful our minds can be when set in a positive manner, I think using a recording of positive affirmations playing on a speaker in a loop while we sleep would greatly benefit so many aspects of our lives.  I encourage anyone reading this to give it a try and below will be a list of some positive affirmations you can pick from to make your day better in countless ways.
