150 Positive Morning Affirmations for Women (to Start Your Day Right)
I was shocked recently. In a good way.
I completed a group challenge that included saying positive affirmations for sixty seconds. Every morning in front of a camera.
Now, I love doing challenges. So, I thought this one would be fascinating, but ultimately no big deal. Boy, was I wrong.
In terms of effort, it was as easy as I imagined. I already had morning affirmations written out that I wanted to say. And it took exactly one minute.
Yet, stunningly, this challenge turned out to be the thing I looked forward to most in my morning (which is HUGE because I love my morning routine).
Saying the affirmations out loud felt glorious. Powerful. And intense.
I always left with more purpose going into the day.
And I began to wonder how a short 60 seconds could make such a big impact on how I felt.

The Intense Benefits of Affirmations
So, I did a little digging. As it turns out, our thoughts are everything.
“What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.”
Buddha
1. Affirmations can rewire the brain to improve positive self-perception, self-esteem, confidence, and problem-solving abilities.
2. With this positive self-talk, a neural process occurs that helps you imagine positive events over negative ones (source). This leads to easier changes and handling obstacles that come your way.
3. Those who use affirmations stress and ruminate less (source). Double win!
4. And finally, affirmations wrap into our identity. Who we are is made up entirely by who we think we are. For example, if you identify as a runner, you’re MUCH more likely to run.
No wonder it gave such a happiness boost!
Next, let’s look at beautiful affirmation examples. Then read on for how to make your unique affirmations work for you.

How to Make Daily Morning Affirmations Effective
Next, while all of the I am affirmations above work well, there are five additional tips to using morning affirmations (for women) that make them astonishingly effective.
1. You MUST Believe Them
Affirmations like “I’m skinny” or “I make a million bucks” are sometimes hard. If an affirmation is difficult for you to believe because it’s far out of your current realm, you’ll feel as though you’re lying to yourself and give up entirely.
Instead, choose something like “I work hard and am committed to a lean, toned body.” Or make an affirmation that is a stepping stone, such as “I make six figures.”
“If you’re consistently speaking positively to yourself, the perception of the world will eventually change.”-Dr. Danielle Kelvas, Physician and Mental Health Expert
2. Use Your Values in Your Affirmations
Affirmations should be personal. Prioritize the values that you hold in your life to focus your affirmations on what matters to YOU.
If you value your work, try: “my work makes a positive impact on others.”
If you value your friends, try: “my friends are a a positive light in my life.”
3. Use Your Goals in Your Positive Women’s Affirmations
What goals are you working on? Use daily morning affirmations for women to help yourself make the progress! This is a huge secret advantage!
Try “I am a runner,” and then spend a few minutes every day running. Before you know it, you’ll be working your way to longer increments, and beginning to identify as a runner.
*Not sure how to word the affirmation you want? Leave a comment below and I’ll try to help you brainstorm!
4. Use Emotion & Visualization
Affirmations work best when you engage your emotions. If your core value is being calm with your kids, picture what that looks like. Then, imagine how you feel (even in tough situations). Strive for that feeling during the day.
See this free vision board template & how-to for more on visualization!
5. Say Them in First Person, Present tense
Finally, it helps to say affirmations as though you are actively doing them. This draws on emotions and you can visualize your preferred outcome. It’s yet another phenomenal way to motivate yourself into action.
