Fundamentally an affirmation is a sentence which has nothing negative in it.

In simple sense, it’s a positive statement. The word affirmation comes from the Latin word ‘Affirmare’ that is, ‘To Affirm’- means, the action of affirming, to allow something positive.

Words have always been known to hold power in them.

It is known from ancient times that ‘Words have their own vibration “. Most religions have the practice of reciting words, together in certain numbers of times in the form of Mantras, Tasbeeh or Rosary.

The purpose behind it is to raise vibrations and bring in positivity. Affirmations are in similar lines to that of mantras (Mann = mind/Antara = inside).

Positive suggestions from gurus, teachers, doctors, and priests have always been known to influence the individual psyche and thereby their response to situations in life.

Based on these observations, around the later part of the eighteenth-century French Pharmacist and Psychologist Emile Couve came up with the idea of “auto suggestion’ and found it of great benefit in the emotional, mental as well as physical development of the individual.

“Every day in every way, I am getting better and better!” was one of his prescription suggestions to all his patients which is even popular till date as a golden mantra for holistic enhancement in daily life.

Louise Hay in the twentieth century, a pioneer in consciousness and metaphysic with her best-seller book “You can Heal your life” raised the scale for using affirmations in daily life including for physical ailments at an altogether different level. Affirmations are popular as new age Mantras with those who are sincere practitioners of self-work. Following Louise Hay, there have been self-help teachers who have been propagating the use of a variety of affirmations for mental, emotional, behavioural, financial as well as spiritual upliftment.

An affirmation can work at all levels. But by and large, its impact is broadly at two things – motivational and transformational. It is a great manifestation tool. The Key to its effectiveness lies in non-compromising, constant and repetitive use. Its function is like that of computer programming and plays a great role in mental programming and Influencing neurologically and thereby rewiring the brain and influencing neuroplasticity of the brain.

Its application is simple and calls for a non-compromising determination as well as a strong belief in practising consistently. As Victoria Erikson states: “Consistency is an underappreciated form of Intentional Magic disguised as mundane doing”. – Truly is applicable in the case of the Use of affirmations just as for self-healing and spiritual practice.

Any affirmation can be chanted 21 times and for a minimum of 21 days to bring in its Magical transformation. The ideal time is just before going to sleep and immediately waking up which is time for a natural hypnotic trance. Latter makes the efficiency and affectivity of affirmations multifold.

Affirmations written daily can be effective too as writing is subconscious activity, more so when you are writing with a non-dominant hand. It can influence neurologically to bring transformational shift.

However, affirmations are spoken aloud or silently are from a conscious mind state. Hence many times succumb to negation, self-doubt and resistance that comes from the conscious mind. Thereby best way affirmation can reap benefits is by giving in the subconscious state – while in a hypnotic trance.

Affectivity of Affirmations increases 6000 times when given as suggestions in hypnotic trance through hypnotherapist or through self-hypnosis by own self

Affirmation can be practiced as standalone self-healing practice.

However results are rewarding when it is used as adjunct to therapy esp. regression therapy

Latter therapy releases the deep rooted self-sabotaging patterns at the level of thought feeling emotions from its source and affirmation work done in hypnotic trance through self-hypnosis sets strong foundation for new chosen set of thought emotion pattern an beliefs.

Affirmations are immensely useful self-healing tool for manifestation and transformation of self in all areas of life –health relationships, wealth and spiritual growth
