Positive affirmations work faster when you repeat them often throughout the day, instead of just once or twice. However, it is easy to forget to do it while rushing through the day. This article will share with you how to make easy portable positive affirmation cards within 5 minutes that you can put in your wallet, car or around the house. They serve as reminders to make use of the affirmations whenever you see them while going about your day.
I recommend handmade cards over those you can buy as they tend to be more effective. Some words work better for you than others. Being able to customise the wordings to those that work best for you means that the affirmations will work better for you. When your affirmation cards are handmade, they become very personal and will resonate better with you than those that are commercial made or store bought.
Materials you will need:
colored paper (100-120gsm works well)scissorsblack markerdecorative embellishments (optional) eg: colored markers, stickers, pictures, glitter etcStep 1: Cut paper into the desired size
Cut your colored paper or decorative paper into the desired size. I like to use either bright or pastel colored paper. Bright colors are more eye catching and draws your attention to the affirmation among a sea of white paper documents. Pastel colors can also be a good option as they are soothing and calming on the eyes. I like to use plain paper and decorate them later, but you can just as well use decorated paper if you prefer. For simplicity and convenience, use what you can find at home.
The size must be small enough that it is portable, but big enough that the affirmations are readable. I like to make credit card sized positive affirmation cards because I find them the easiest to bring out. They are extremely portable as I can fit them into my wallet and then place them in the car while driving or display them on my desk at work. You can choose to make them in the size of post its or postcards if you like.
Step 2: Write one affirmation on each card using the black marker
These affirmations are some examples:
I live in the present moment, joyous and free.
I am comfortable with my sexuality.
It is safe to be who I am.
Step 3: Decorate
Get creative! The only limit is your fear to express yourself.
Add pictures, stickers or glitter to embellish your portable positive affirmation cards to make them more appealing and eye catching.
Now that you are done with your portable positive affirmation cards, bring them everywhere! The more you use positive affirmations, they more true they become for you.
Are you making progress with your affirmations?
It takes some time and effort to change your thought patterns and beliefs, but it is very possible to do so. Loving yourself is a continuous choice and process. Self love and happiness is not about reaching an ideal end destination, but about constantly being true to yourself and placing your happiness as utmost importance. It isn't easy, so keep encouraging yourself to stay on this journey and use affirmations daily.
