Creating Custom Affirmations

• Reframe the negative belief → positive present tense
• "I am..." or "I choose..." or "I trust..."
• Test: does it resonate or feel forced?

Delivery Styles

Adapt to preference:

• Gentle: "You are worthy of love and belonging"
• Bold: "I am unstoppable. I create my reality."
• Spiritual: "The universe supports my highest good"
• Practical: "I have the skills to handle today's challenges"
