How Affirmations Can Help You as a Weight Loss Tool?

 

 The word "affirmation" means, "to make firm". Affirmations are mind statements, which you consciously focus on to make firm with the intention of achieving the results you desire. They are also known as "auto-suggestion" or "subconscious  mind programming".

 

When you go to the history of affirmation, you find that affirmations have been used centuries back. Even today they are still powerful method of goal attainment. People from all walks of life can benefit from using affirmations, to make positive changes in their health, happiness, relationships, prosperity, work and other areas. There are many areas in life to which affirmations may be applied!!

 

Weight loss is one among them! Each one of us knows that weight loss is effectively brought only through consistent activities like nutrition, food, exercise and our routine disciplined life. Even though there are several medicines, supplements, equipments are available in the market those can give you only a temporary relief from your weight problem.

 

Often you forget the famous quote, "when there is a will, there is a way". While trying all the above medicines and tools, you are not focusing on the power of your will (mind), and that is the reason the results obtained are of temporary nature. Our mind is capable of making us more happy and healthy. You don't have to pay a single penny to program your mind with positive statements called "affirmations".

 

If you are following a proper diet, exercise, disciplined life along with the regular practice of affirmations you can change your way of life. You can use affirmations for all your other physical problems like, Blood Pressure, Diabetes, Back pain, Arthritis, Asthma and so on. Simply create your affirmation statements for that specific purpose. 

 

You can apply below mentioned sample affirmations to permanently correct your over weight problem;

 

·         I am not hungry

·         I do not want to snack between meals

·         I do not have to finish the food on my plate

·         I do not want fatty or fried foods

·         I want to eat healthy

·         I feel better when I eat right

·         I like healthy foods

·         I do not feel like eating fatty or heavy foods

·         I am meant to be thin

·         I only eat for survival

·         I like healthy walking

·         I love exercise 

 

Practice: Use any one or two of the above affirmation for your daily practice. Repeat the affirmation at least 15 times either in the morning or in the night, before you go to bed. For better results write the selected affirmation for 15 times as your subconscious mind will catch the written words more receptively than while you read loudly.

 

An affirmation is not complete if you are not visualizing (feeling) yourself as slim, along with the practice. Visualization plays a vital role in mind programming. Hence, see yourself as "slim" throughout the practice. Also play some good relaxation music, while you practice each session. In due course, you will notice some miracles on your way!!
