Take it from this Mum, who knows best(!), there will always be times of stress in your life. Stress is an unavoidable part of life. Some people thrive on it, others do not. If you\u2019ve felt your stress levels rising to a level you\u2019re not comfortable with, then it\u2019s time to do something about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s all well and good for the powers to be to tell us we need to simply reduce stress in our lives – it\u2019s not quite as simple as flicking a switch! We still have to raise our families, earn an income and negotiate life and relationships, so there will always be stressors there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, there are ways that you can reduce stress in your life, or at least reduce your feelings and responses to stressful situations. One of the best ways to do this is with some simple affirmations to reduce stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meditation is said to be another great way to lower your stress levels but, if you feel like you don\u2019t have the time and\/or patience to master the art of meditating, then you\u2019re going to love using affirmations! They\u2019re quick, they\u2019re easy and they\u2019re free! There\u2019s a lot to love about positive affirmations! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Affirmations?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Affirmations are a bit like a mantra, or a statement you can repeat over and over. It\u2019s said that by using affirmations consistently you can actually change the neural pathways in your brain! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basically the mantras, affirmations or statements that you repeat over and over again will start to become your reality once you\u2019ve convinced your own brain that they are true. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, with this premise, all you need to do to reduce your stress levels by using affirmations, is to choose an affirmation that states how you would like to be feeling (rather than stressed) and repeat it over and over until your brain believes it is true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Use Affirmations To Reduce Stress<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Simply choose a few of the stress relieving affirmations below that make the most sense to you and how you are feeling or how you would like to be feeling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then repeat your chosen affirmations over and over, like a mantra. You\u2019ll want to repeat each affirmation 10-15 times, at least a couple of times a day.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can repeat your affirmations by saying them over and over out loud, saying them in your head, recording them and listening to them, or by writing them out over and over (like writing lines at school). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The important thing to do is to practice this habit daily, preferably at least twice a day, until your feelings of stress diminish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
