Why Use Night Affirmations?

I am 100% guilty of focusing on positive affirmations in the morning and even the afternoon while completely abandoning them at night.

It’s an easy trap to fall into.

For me, I have a morning routine that includes journaling for 30 minutes right when I wake up. And almost always, these journal entries include some high-vibe, uplifting affirmations to help me start the day feeling positive and inspired. My workouts are also done early in the day, which is another time I repeat positive affirmations to myself. And I’m pretty decent at remembering to silently recite affirmations when I’m out and about, or when I get a few seconds to pause during work.

But when it comes to the evening, I’m not the best at reaffirming my worthiness. Or simply reminding myself that everything I did today was enough. And the things I didn’t do? Those things are okay, too.

Because my worthiness is not defined by my achievements.

Recently, I set the intention to be more mindful with repeating nighttime affirmations. When I say this, know that this isn’t for the sake of just mechanically repeating positive words like a robot. The purpose of these affirmations is to be more mindful with my thoughts and the way I speak to myself, while owning my story and telling my own truths (especially when my pesky brain starts to return to bully mode).

What Are Positive Affirmations?

Positive affirmations are statements (usually made in the present-tense) designed to uplift and encourage while boosting self-belief and supporting your overall wellbeing.

The classic first two words of an uplifting affirmation are, “I am . . .”

However, an affirmation can start with any phrase that fits the context of what you want to affirm.

Here are a couple other common ways you might start an affirmation:

• I can . . .
• I accept . . .
• My (life, heart, body, worthiness) . . .
• I release . . .
• I have . . .
• All is . . .
• Everything is . . .
• I feel . . .
