Wondering how to implement positive affirmations for women? These tips will help you select positive affirmations for your life, and implement them into your daily routine!

How many of you made a New Year's Resolution that sounds like this…..”I'm going to love myself more.”  Hands raised right? Self love and seeing the beauty in yourself is VERY important and it's easy to talk about.  It's a lot harder to implement practices in your daily life that help you ACTUALLY feel that way.  True confidence is hard to find.  It takes work and dedication to bring that type of self love into your life, but it is oh so worthwhile.  Positive affirmations are an amazing, simple way to work on your mental patterns and internal dialog and in my experience? They do make a huge difference.  I wanted to share my own experience and tips surrounding creating positive affirmations for women.

Positive Affirmations for Women

So you guys know I do a version of this with Lydia.  Positive Affirmations for kids can make a huge difference in their feelings about themselves, school anxiety and family transitions.  And guess what? They work for us too.  The key? Repetition and focusing on what is most important to you personally.

Identify No More Than 3 Focus Attributes:

I'm pretty sure we all have a laundry list of things we'd love to improve our outlook on.  To start off, select no more than three.  Inner beauty? A specific relationship? A goal you are trying to reach? An addiction or habitual behavior you'd like to overcome? Three at most.  For me? It's seeing myself as beautiful, seeing myself as a community builder, and being present in my relationships.  That's IT.  Those are three pretty big goals.  And ideally, I'll make progress towards bettering myself in those areas each day.  In some way, shape or form.

Create Phrases:

The next step? Create a sentence or phrase that showcases you having these attributes or working towards them.  You're envisioning them being a part of your life and speaking it into being.  You're preparing your brain to plan for the work you need to get to these goals.  Do I think you manifest them? Debatable.  Do I think you put yourself in the mental state to make these priorities happen in your life? Absolutely.

My current phrases?

I am beautiful, everyday and in every state.

I am a community builder, I welcome new amazing women into my community everyday.

I am present in my marriage, my parenting and my friendships.  My people need me and I need them.

Decide On Two Times of Day to Repeat Your Affirmations and What Method is Best for You:

Now here's the key.  Habit, habit, habit.  You actually have to DO THE WORK.  That means you will be repeating these phrases to yourself multiple times a day.  You decide what works for you.  Will this be verbal? Written? In a voice recording on your phone that you listen back to? Think about your ACTUAL day to day routine.  What can you implement realistically? When I was rushing out the door to teach in the mornings…..I couldn't have done journal time at home and written my affirmations down.  I could however, listen to a recording of MY positive affirmations for women while I drove to work.  So a voice recording on my phone? Would have worked well.

Be Patient:

Mental change takes TIME.  You're rewiring years of negative internal dialog and that doesn't happen overnight.  Whether we are talking about positive affirmations for kids or positive affirmations for women, it will be 4-6 weeks before you start to feel a serious change in your outlook.  Stay the course.  This isn't time consuming.  You're committing a few minutes, a few times a day.  The input? Is minimal for the output you'll get in return.

Do you do positive affirmations for women or positive affirmations for kids in your family? I'd love to hear your experience!

The way I laughed out loud when I spotted this lit The way I laughed out loud when I spotted this little area during our day at Knott’s Berry Farm……. (teachers, you get it right?!?)I mean, HAD TO TAKE A PHOTO (or 20). This weekend was the start of Peanuts Celebration at Knott’s Berry Farm and we spent a day immersed in all things Snoopy.

✨ Happy 100th Disney!✨⠀ ⠀ 💜The people a ✨ Happy 100th Disney!✨⠀⠀💜The people are the magic.  Yesterday was filled with friends and food and fun and feet (sore ones after walking around from dawn to way past dusk)…….and as Lydia and I tucked ourselves into bed last night……I felt so much gratitude.  Our happy place has brought so much joy into our lives and so many people that enrich each moment.⠀⠀✨The Disney 100 Celebration will be happening ALL YEAR, and I feel like we still have so much to see and do.⠀⠀💜Favorite Moments and Experiences from our day one of Disney 100:⠀🚂riding Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railroad: I avoided ALLLLLL spoilers (there are some in this carousel btw), and had seen NONE of the attraction until we stepped into the queue…. it was absolutely adorable and I can’t WAIT to ride it again, plus when we exited the ride…..some of the team that created it were at the exit and seeing their smiles? ABSOLUTE DISNEY MAGIC.⠀🌅seeing the sun rise over the castle bright and early⠀💕running into friends every 5 minutes, it felt like a giant reunion⠀👗characters in their costumes, not going to lie….we didn’t wait in lines for them….they were length, but we gave a wave as we walked by and they looked stunning⠀⠀✨When is your next Disney trip???
🏰Dreaming of Dancing in Front of the Castle for 🏰Dreaming of Dancing in Front of the Castle for Spring Break?🏰⠀⠀📷A few castle photo tips:⠀1️⃣side, not center……both sides of the castle have lovely little spots that provide a great view of the castle and moat, but avoid the crowd (plus you can get some nice flattering light into the mid morning or in the late afternoon)⠀2️⃣want to be closer to the front? Sit on the back of the benches built into the moat entrance, you’ll be a bit elevated, it gives a great angle and a better view of the castle herself ⠀3️⃣if you REALLY want that walking into the castle shot…..this is something you can do during early entry time if you are staying on property ⠀⠀🧳Now, let’s talk Spring Break tips in collaboration with @themeparkfrog :⠀🚨This is IT.  Red alert.  If you’re hoping to visit the Happiest Place on Earth for Spring Break….BOOK IT NOW.  Spring Break is around the corner, and the more you plan, the happier you’ll be (trust me).⠀⠀To do (in order):⠀1️⃣book your hotel, theme park tickets and rental car: for the best deal, you can do this as a bundle with Undercover Tourist (you’ll save a TON this way….I’m sharing more in stories)⠀2️⃣once you have your trip dates….book dining.  At Disneyland you can book 60 days in advance (which means, NOW and coming up very soon for Spring Break).⠀3️⃣ If you want to do something special like the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, you can ALSO book that 60 days in advance.⠀⠀✨So, are you ready? Blue skies, sunshine, and Disney Magic guaranteed. What are YOUR spring break plans?
