| Much attention is given these days to saying positive affirmations. It is also important that we become aware of the impact of negative affirmations. The following are common negative affirmations or expressions. With frequent use, they can create problems and invite the very situations they describe, even though we claim we do not want to experience these situations. So, watch your language as a first step in transforming negative situations.
Common Expressions
From Awareness to Change As you become more aware of statements and expressions that you use, it becomes easier to break the habit. Many articles at this Web site address strategies and techniques for shifting from using disempowering language and thoughts to using empowering language and thoughts. We refer you especially to Asking Empowering Questions, Your Focus of Attention is your Key to Happiness, Say Goodbye to Struggle, and Five Types of Affirmations for Empowerment.
