Why Affirmations Still Work—Even When You Think They’re BS
Let’s cut the fluff.
If you’ve ever said “I’m abundant” while side-eyeing your bank balance, thinking:
“Okay… but where’s the proof?”
—you’re not alone.
It feels fake. Awkward. A little cringe.
You wonder if you’re just chanting things into the void.
But here’s the thing no one tells you:
Affirmations aren’t magic spells. They’re neural commands.
You’re not lying to yourself. You’re teaching your brain a new language—the language of who you’re becoming.
The Truth Most “Experts” Skip
Your brain doesn’t care what’s true.
It cares what’s repeated.
This is called neuroplasticity—your brain’s ability to reshape itself based on the thoughts you feed it again and again.
So if you’ve spent years thinking:
“I’m not good enough.”
“I always attract the wrong people.”
“I’ll never be financially free.”
…then congrats, your subconscious probably thinks that’s your identity. Not because it’s real—but because it’s familiar.
Affirmations are how we flip that script.
How It Actually Works
Your subconscious runs the show—it governs your patterns, beliefs, and what you allow yourself to receive.
But here’s the secret formula I swear by:
Emotion + Repetition + Safety = Subconscious Rewiring
That’s why affirmations work best when your body is calm—like while driving, showering, cooking, or listening to music (👀 hey mixtapes).
That’s when your conscious resistance is low and your subconscious is wide open.
You don’t need to “believe” every word at first.
You just need to keep showing up and saying them like you mean it.
Eventually, your brain stops fighting it—and starts becoming it.
Plant the Thought, Water It, Walk Away.
You don’t stare at a seed the minute you plant it, demanding it bloom.
You trust the process. You water it. You keep living.
Same thing here.
Say it. Feel it. Release it.
Let the rewiring happen behind the scenes.
