Affirmations for weight loss can be a powerful tool in your health and fitness program, but they must be used in certain ways to be truly effective. A lot of people make the mistake of writing affirmations so they are weak, scattered or unfocused. Nor surprisingly, they don't get good results. Today I'm going to share two helpful tips on creating weight loss affirmations that are very targeted and powerful.
First things first: The focus of your weight loss affirmation. You may think that you are creating the affirmation to help you lose weight, but that is not exactly right. Your true goal is feeling good about your body; you just happen to believe that losing your excess weight will help you feel that way. And indeed, it probably will. But to focus on the dropping of pounds won't help you tune into your true goal. Instead, think about how you want to feel, physically and emotionally. If being overweight makes you feel ungainly, sluggish, heavy and embarrassed, then being slender and fit will likely make you feel happy, confident, strong and energetic.
Focus on how you want to feel after losing weight, not necessarily the numbers on the scale. An affirmation that says, "I now weigh 125 pounds" doesn't really tune into your true goal. Instead, how about one like this: "I feel so light, confident and fit!"
That brings us to another point: the immense power of emotion in affirmations! If your affirmations are flat and boring, they simply won't be effective at all. You might as well recite random, meaningless words because they will be just as effective as a flat affirmation. When you stimulate positive emotion, on the other hand, you harness the power of the universe and direct it toward the completion of your desired outcome. That is known as deliberately using the law of attraction!
Next power tip: You must state your affirmations relentlessly until they "sink in". If you only say them sporadically, they won't do much for you. Affirmations are supposed to overwrite old mental programming with more empowering, positive beliefs, right? The more frequently you say your affirmations, the more effective they are going to be.
Last but not least, say your affirmations with strong intention and power. If you just mumble them quietly they won't carry nearly as much power as if you practically shout them (you can just say them strongly instead of loudly if you want to keep them private and there are other people around you). Just make sure to infuse them with a lot of passion and conviction. For most people, using affirmations in this way should inspire some noticeable changes within a week, maybe two. The changes may be small at first but if you keep going they should increase in intensity and frequency.
