You CAN push back on the negative swirl of thoughts in your head.*

Taking a moment each day to remind yourself that you’re worthy of love, kindness and success is a start.

It may feel awkward at first, but research shows that positive affirmations help reduce stress and incite beneficial action. The Mayo Clinic also notes that positive self-talk is also connected to numerous health benefits such as better cardiovascular health and a longer life span.

If you feel resistance to saying positive things about yourself, ask yourself whether a good friend would agree with your affirmation. They likely would, right?

Learn more about self-affirmations and mindset work by booking a coaching session with me. My clients can confirm that coaching can help you gain confidence, combat negative self talk and achieve goals that truly fulfill you. You can learn more in my Frequently Asked Questions About Coaching section.

*P.S.: Talk to a healthcare provider if you’re experiencing mood changes, social withdrawal, sleep or weight changes, hopeless thoughts or other persistent symptoms of mood disorders. You’ll find a bunch of free Canadian mental health resources at the end of this page on the differences between therapy and coaching.
