The power of words and how they create your reality
Bump, a quiet disordered series that is only weird and mysterious for the words. Words coerce their own power. They can uplift us, they can inspire us, and they can change our lives. Conversely, the power of the word can be used negatively to bring us down, mope, and sap energy.
It is incredible that two words can offer so much power to impact our emotions and thoughts, no authors has been honed for many centuries.
From classics, like orwell’s 1984 to a memoir which awakens us, like becoming, by Michelle Obama, even books allow to picture how much the words can create your own reality! If you would like to go deeper into this subject matter, I suggest reading The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, and The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz, which inform the reader how words impact us at an intrinsic level, as well as provide us with insights and techniques to use these impacts intentionally.
What are spiritual affirmations and how do they work?
Have you heard of spiritual affirmations? They are like magical spells for your spirit! In essence, they are positive phrases that you tell yourself to re-affirm a certain belief or mindset. They can facilitate change when you swap out negative self-talk for words that lift you up and push you forward.
So, if you keep telling yourself “I’m not good enough” or “I will never manifest my dreams,” spiritual affirmations will help you re-program your thinking.
When you tell yourself things like “I am enough” or “I am capable of achieving my goals,” and repeat these affirmations, your brain begins to believe what your saying and eventually your beliefs about yourself and what you are capable of doing will change as well. It is like a mind gym workout for the spirit!
The science behind positive affirmations
Have you heard of positive affirmations? These are the mantras people tell themselves to change feelings and feelings in effort to feel better, feel different, or improve quality of life. These techniques actually correlate to science that proves this works.
There is a study by Carnegie Mellon University that states self-affirmation could lower stress and improve problem-solving capacity, and a study by the University of Pennsylvania indicates that self-referential positive affirmation will increase Self-Esteem and increase feelings of overall wellbeing.
With this in mind, if you are feeling down or feeling stuck, perhaps it is time to try self-talk affirmations.
They may just elevate your day.
