Affirmations-do they work


I am beautiful
I am worthy
I deserve to find love
I am wonderful
I deserve prosperity
I deserve financial success

The above are positive affirmations.Saying these to ourselves is supposed to better our lives,bring about prosperity ,abundance and love .However, a lot of times people repeat these to themselves and despite that they feel flawed and horrible from within.Instead of manifesting and harvesting prosperity and abundance, they attract lack and negativity.

They ask themselves why?

The answer is that affirmations don’t , in themselves, work unless our core truly believes we are worthy.If we were to give an angry and grouchy child sweets and toys to play with to appease it but never give it any love, the child would feel neglected and unloved.Even if somebody came along and tries to hug or comfort such a child,  the child would be wary of their love and intentions and pull away from because love feels unfamiliar.

However, if we spent time comforting the child and also gave it occasional gifts out of love,the child would feel nurtured and would be happy.Same is the case with affirmations-if we self-abandon with various addictions, self-judgement, making others responsible for our feelings and self worth and do not feel our feelings, the affirmations would be akin to water being poured on a ducks back.

On the contrary, if we spoke them brimming with genuine self love, they can be the cherry on cake.

Difference between coaching and therapy

LIFE COACH VS. THERAPIST One of the most common misconceptions about  life coaching  is that it is therapy in disguise — or, worse yet, therapy from an unlicensed practitioner.
