Positive affirmations for anxiety
These anxiety affirmation cards feature uplifting and worry-free affirmations that you can practise saying every day. Whilst affirmations may seem alien to some, they can certainly provide you with a sense of calm and positive energy as you focus on positive thoughts.
These affirmation cards are inspired by the great philosophers of the past from Marcus Aurelius who himself suffered from anxiety to Epictetus and Seneca.
Here are the powerful affirmations these anxiety affirmation cards feature;
I am loved and I myself am love.
I will let go of anxiety for it is within my own perceptions, not outside me.
There is already a great strength inside of me if I so dare to look.
I will face tomorrow with the same weapons I used today.
The universe is all change and this too shall pass as it has many times before.
I am a human being. Therefore, I am subject to anxiety. That’s okay. That is normal.
I must not forget the past, fear the future nor neglect the present.
I will focus on the things I can control and with this I will find strength.
Today I want to feel happiness. Therefore, I choose to be happy.
I can worry for 40 or 40,000 years. What is it I will have achieved by doing either?
My breath is borrowed as is my body. My mind, however, is mind to master.
Today I will improve the quality of my life by committing to improve the quality of my thoughts, one step at a time.
As a dog arises to do the work of a dog, I arise to do the work of a human being. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Every person I come across today will be an opportunity for kindness, even myself.
I will choose to dwell on the beauty of life, not every thought that drifts into my mind.
What a precious privilege it is to be alive, to breathe, to think, to love.
Today my guiding light is love and compassion, not fear, worry or anger.
Today I judge myself not. I am mere flesh and bone as was not born to be perfect or live to an unreasonable standard.
I accept my flaws. They do not concern me. In fact, how exciting it is to have something to work on.
So someone may not like me? This makes no difference. It is their problem.
I will love with all my heart and try with all my might. If it is not enough, there is nothing more to it.
I will love myself as much as I love others for we all want the same things – to matter, to live in peace and be loved.
How much time have I wasted worrying already? I must remember – I can also use this time for self-compassion and self-discipline.
If I am part of this universe, I am this universe. Like the fire of the sun, a blinding light beams from my soul and covers all in love.
I must remember – everything we hear is an opinion, everything we see is a perspective.
