How Affirmations Can Help Your Marriage
The words we say repeatedly have a direct influence on our subconscious mind. In other words, we are subconsciously creating our reality with anything that we think, say, or do habitually.
Affirmations are powerful statements that you repeat frequently to change your thoughts and beliefs and align them with the outcomes you want in your life, while at the same time overcoming negative thoughts, doubts, and fears that may be holding you back.
Studies have shown that self-affirmation activates brain regions involved in self-related processing and enables you to tap into a state of clarity and fulfillment.
