Being a parent is one of the most rewarding experiences in life. As parents, we want our children to be happy, healthy, and confident. One way to help our children develop positive self-talk and confidence is by introducing them to positive affirmations.
What are Positive Affirmations?
Affirmations are simply positive statements that affirm a belief, attitude or feeling. Positive affirmations help to reprogram our subconscious mind, allowing us to overcome negative self-talk and beliefs that may hold us back in life. Children can also benefit the same way adults do from positive affirmations.
