Speak Your Joy
Find a quiet moment, whether it’s in front of a full-length mirror, your car’s rearview mirror, or even a compact mirror you keep handy. Say out loud—yes, audibly, so that you and the universe hears you—three things that fill you with pure joy about yourself.
As you speak those affirmations, open your heart. Feel the warmth and love for yourself that these words carry. Connect with how it feels to truly appreciate the incredible person you are.
The Science of Speaking, or Why Talking to Yourself is Actually Cool 🗣️
You might be thinking, “Why can’t I just think these affirmations? Why say them out loud?” Great question! Here’s the deal:
1️) From Brain to Mouth: When you take a thought and give it a voice, it’s like you’re telling your brain, “Hey, listen up, this is important!” It makes the idea more real, more concrete.
2️) Your Ears Need to Hear It, Too: Hearing your own voice say something positive is like giving your brain a second helping of joy. It’s like your ears are telling your brain, “Did you catch that? She’s talking about us!”
3️) Feel the Vibes: There’s something magical about hearing your own voice express something positive. It’s like your words are giving you a little emotional hug, making it easier for the message to sink in.
4️) Heart and Soul: And here’s the kicker—when you hear these affirmations, they don’t just buzz around in your brain. They sink down into your heart, where all those warm, fuzzy feelings live.
So, by saying it, hearing it, and feeling it, you’re creating this awesome loop of positivity that’s way more powerful than just thinking it.
Trust me, your heart and soul will thank you!
