We all battle with negative thoughts from time to time, if not every day, and it’s important to avoid losing those battles. We won’t win them all, but we can win most of them if we have the right tools. One of those tools is affirmations, which are short yet powerful statements that can challenge negative thoughts and cultivate a more positive mindset. Here are 10 affirmations to tap into your divine energy and spirituality when you’re feeling defeated:
"I’m a vessel of divine light, radiating positivity and love into the world."
This affirmation can be a nice reminder of your inherent connection to the universe and your ability to receive and spread positive energy wherever you go. When you’re feeling negative, you can use this affirmation as part of a meditation session to release the negative energy and embrace your divine light instead.
"I trust in the wisdom of the universe to guide me on my path."
If you embrace the belief that the universe has a plan for you and trust its guidance, you will be able to view your challenges and struggles from a different perspective. When you feel like your faith in the universe is being tested, repeat this affirmation and be reminded that it’s always leading you toward fulfillment and purpose.
"I’m worthy of all the blessings that come my way."
Sometimes, things feel a little too good to be true. That’s our inner saboteur or imposter talking, so you can squash it with this affirmation. Because, yes, you’re indeed worthy of the blessings that come your way. The more certain you are of that, the more you open yourself up to receive the abundance and blessings that the universe has in store for you.
"I release all fears and doubts, allowing my true essence to shine through."
Fear and doubt are a part of the human experience, but they can hold us back if we let them. If you’re feeling any fear or doubt and it’s making you anxious to the point where you’re frozen, speak this affirmation to yourself. Acknowledging and releasing the fear or doubt will allow you to embrace your divine energy with confidence and courage.
"I’m surrounded by love and support, both seen and unseen."
It’s not uncommon to sometimes feel like we’re alone, but we’re not. This affirmation will allow you to acknowledge the presence of love and support from both the physical world and the spiritual realm. This provides a strong reminder that you’re never alone in your journey.
"I’m the creator of my reality, manifesting my desires with ease and grace."
Manifestation is quite a powerful tool and this affirmation can help you feel more confident of your power as a co-creator of your reality, knowing that your thoughts and intentions can shape your experiences.
"I’m grateful for the abundance that flows into my life effortlessly."
Cultivating an attitude of gratitude is key not only to recognizing and appreciating the abundance that surrounds you in all its forms but also to attracting even more of that abundance into your life.
"I’m aligned with my higher self, living in harmony with my purpose."
This affirmation is a great way to connect with your higher self and remember that you’re aligned with your true purpose, living a life that’s authentic and fulfilling. It will be particularly useful when you’re facing challenges that make you doubt whether you’re on the right path.
"I’m resilient and capable of overcoming any challenges that come my way."
Speaking of challenges, this affirmation will help you strengthen your belief in your own resilience and ability to navigate through them with grace and perseverance. You’ve survived other challenges before and you will continue to do so. Even if it doesn’t feel that way at the moment, you have the capacity.
"I’m a divine being, worthy of love, joy, and peace in every moment."
Last but not least, this is a simple affirmation that will help you embrace your divine nature fully, confirming your right to experience love, joy, and peace as your birthright in every moment of your life. This affirmation is not just a reminder, it’s an essential truth. The next time you feel like you’re not doing your best, use any of these affirmations to hold space for yourself, manifest, and boost yourself up.
