Read the set of related affirmations below aloud. It’s important to your conscious and subconscious mind to hear the affirmations said in your own voice. Choose one or two of the affirmations from the set to start working with. You only need one or two affirmations, used consistently, to make a substantial change in your life.

Choose one affirmation that feels easy to you and choose another that generates resistance or disbelief. The idea is to practice extending your current self-imposed limits and encourage growth.

Say your chosen affirmation loud enough for your mind to hear your voice saying the words and take notice of how you feel as you begin and as you continue your practice. Repeat your chosen affirmation multiple times a day for at least 30 days and reinforce your affirmation by writing it in your journal.

You can change your life by beginning an affirmation practice – using one or two favorite affirmations over the course of 30 to 60 days can permanently change your mindset and your life.


Affirmations to Eliminate Toxicity from My Life

You don’t have to let toxicity and negative emotions or thoughts remain in your life. It’s YOUR life to live as YOU so choose. Whatever situations you face can be conquered – and you have the strength within to do it.

Use this set of affirmations to reinforce your right to eliminate negativity and toxicity from your life. Release anything and everything that is holding you back, and lean into your authentic strength and power. 

Read through this set of affirmations slowly and give yourself time to feel how each affirmation sits with you. Tune in to your body’s signals – when you say the affirmation, do you feel some tension? Perhaps a little resistance? Think about why you are feeling it.

If what you feel is joy, comfort, or a boost to your strength, consider writing that affirmation down in your journal as one of many you might use over the next 30 to 60 days to keep you moving forward and making positive changes.
