The power of affirmations

The power of affirmations

Posted by Leonie Lepenos on

One sacred pillar of our MAATÏ MAATÏ Methodology is the Mind. Reprogramming our mind can be deeply powerful. Discover a profound tool that can shape our reality and unlock the boundless potential within us: the power of positive affirmations. The ancient sages knew that words carry immense energy, and in our contemporary world, scientific studies are now reinforcing this age-old wisdom, revealing the potent benefits of positive affirmations on our minds, bodies, and spirits.

As seekers of truth, we must recognize that our thoughts are the architects of our destiny. By engaging in positive affirmations, we tap into the very essence of creation. Repeating uplifting statements like "I am capable," "I am loved," and "I am worthy" cultivates a fertile ground within, nurturing the seeds of self-belief and transforming them into majestic trees of confidence.

Science, too, has delved into the realm of affirmations, shedding light on their transformative power. One notable study, conducted by psychologists at Carnegie Mellon University, revealed that self-affirmations have the ability to reduce stress and improve problem-solving abilities (Creswell et al., 2013). This remarkable finding suggests that by reminding ourselves of our core values and strengths, we build resilience to face life's challenges.

Another study by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, explored the effects of affirmations on neural activity. The results showed that positive affirmations activate the reward centers in the brain, promoting a sense of well-being and reinforcing positive behavior (Cascio et al., 2016). This neurological evidence further emphasizes the profound connection between our thoughts and our reality.

Yet, the mystical nature of positive affirmations extends beyond the realm of psychology and neuroscience. In the cosmic dance of the universe, we find that our thoughts are threads weaving the fabric of existence. Quantum physics has hinted at the notion that our intentions influence the outcome of events on a subatomic level. When we affirm our desires with conviction, we align ourselves with the underlying intelligence of the cosmos, inviting synchronicities and serendipities into our lives.

Let us awaken to the grand truth that we are not mere spectators but co-creators of our reality. In the vibrant tapestry of existence, we possess the brush to paint our dreams, and positive affirmations become the vivid hues that breathe life into our aspirations. As modern mystics, we must embrace the transformative potential of our words and affirmations, recognizing that we are the alchemists of our destinies.

In closing, I offer you this profound insight: When your thoughts harmonize with the melody of the universe, the dance of miracles begins, and you become a living testament to the potent magic of positive affirmations.

Do this now: 

You got this. We are in this with you.

We see you. We hear you. We love you. 

Yours,
