What exactly is self-love?
Many of us are so focused on everyone else in our lives – our kids, our spouses, our parents, our friends… coworkers… neighbours.
The list goes on.
So we must remember that self-love is imperative to give ourselves the balance we need in life.
These loving affirmations can boost low self-esteem and give you strength and positive energy to get through difficult times.
“Self-love is not simply a state of feeling good. It is a state of appreciation for oneself that grows from actions that support our physical, psychological and spiritual growth”. – Khoshaba
Self-love is appreciating your positive qualities in life and reminding yourself of them.

The Benefits of Positive, Daily Affirmations
Psychology Today has a great definition of why people use affirmations…
“…affirmations are used to reprogram the subconscious mind, to encourage us to believe certain things about ourselves or about the world and our place within it.
They are also used to help us create the reality we want—often in terms of making (or attracting) wealth, love, beauty, and happiness.”
In a nutshell, using positive affirmations can help you:
- Reduce negative thoughts and negative self-talk
- Help you see the good things you have to offer yourself and others (maximizing self-confidence)
- Feel better in your own skin, reducing low self-esteem
- Improve body confidence and body image
- Give yourself unconditional love through affirmations positively impact your subconscious mind
- Have a positive mindset in your day-to-day life

How To Use Daily Self-Love Affirmations Effectively
So often, we let our inner critic and negative emotions take over.
Therefore, it’s good to have a plan on how to incorporate positive self-love affirmations (positive statements) into your daily routine.
Here are some great examples of how you can use these positive statements…
1. Create time in your daily schedule for your affirmations
I highly recommend adding daily self-love affirmations to your morning routine or bedtime routine.
It’s a great way to focus on building your self-esteem as well.
Here’s what you can try:
- Get your list of positive self-love affirmations and choose one to focus on.
- Stand in front of a mirror, close your eyes, and take a deep breath.
- Open your eyes and say your affirmation 3 times.
- Think of what this affirmation means to you in different aspects of your life.
- Repeat your positive affirmation another 3 times so you can let it sink in.
- Throughout your day, leave reminders of your self-love affirmation by writing it in your journal, daily planner, or calendar.
This practice only takes a few minutes but can make a huge impact on your day and your life.
2. Write Your Own List of Self-Love Affirmations
Once you get in the habit of practicing daily affirmations, I would love for you to write your own self-love affirmations.
This will make your affirmations more personal and relevant to your specific needs today.
To write your own affirmations, get a good-quality journal or notebook and a pen you love to write with.
- Begin by writing down your personal thoughts – good and bad.
- Now, circle the negative thoughts and feelings that you need to change into positive thoughts
- Repeat this and circle the positive thoughts (with a different colour pen) that you want to remind yourself of
- Write 2 to 3 affirmations for each thought that you feel will help you focus on a positive outcome
3. Pick Up the Journal
All of these self-love affirmations are available for you to take with you, in my journal…

So happy you found these affirmations inspiring. I think you’ll love writing your own too!
Great affirmations. Thanks for sharing. Definitely add some of these to my daily routine
Thank you for sharing these! You are so appreciated for this. In my struggles, I’ve learned that using positive affirmations is SO IMPORTANT for mental health. My biggest struggle is reminding myself to BELIEVE these affirmations – so, to help with this, I say them aloud to myself while making eye contact in the mirror.
My favorites:
1. I am Enough
2. I am Loved and Worthy of Love
3. I am Resilient
Hi Kristie, I love those affirmations and saying them out loud in the mirror is such a great habit to have. Thanks for sharing!
I love affirmations! They’re very helpful and they become more effective and powerful with everyday practice. Thank you for sharing these affirmations.
I didn’t see this one on there, but it’s one that I believe is important to tell myself, “ I love myself.” I used to think that was some form of vanity, but I soon realized that if I didn’t love myself the alternative was that I didn’t like who I was.
I love, love, loved these! Thanks for sharing. I will be adding a few to my morning routine.
Yay! So glad you love Alyssa 🙂 Having positive affirmations is soooo good for the soul 🙂 Take care!
These affirmations are very important right now. Thanks for such a great post and worksheet!
Hi Julie Ann – thanks so much for taking the time to write 🙂 I agree – affirmations are more helpful now than ever. Enjoy!
I struggle with limiting beliefs and have been trying to figure out how I can help with that. Incorporating self-love affirmations every day should be very useful. Thanks for sharing such a positive post!
Hi Heather – Thanks for sharing. I understand as I’ve been there too. Even when things seem really hard little things like these affirmations really can help 🙂 Take care!
I’ve found that not only writing affirmations but speaking them out loud really helps bring awareness to them. Like a little pep talk for yourself each morning!
I’ve started incorporating more intentional self love. I appreciate this list to get me started and suggesting how to work it into my routine.
I needed ths, I used to write down a different affirmation daily, but got out of the habit
I started by writing down my personal thoughts, and sad to say they are still more negative than positive. But I’m going to work on this with the help of your article! Thanks for sharing.
Denise thanks for sharing your experience and you own them, I like a tool and I don’t know if it is available through Yolanda’s site they are called “(dysfunctional) thought records” you can example a thought more in depth for example the first column you write the date, then situation ( at my families for example) automatic thought ( no one understands me) for example , emotions ( anxiety, sadness for example), distortion: my doesn’t appreciate of care for me (example), alternative thought: my family is not always emotionally available/supportive ( example), outcome: feel better feel worse or at a later date track it… they help with those lingering thoughts that are there for a reason but need to be explored 😀 I hope you are doing well on your journey.

I love this. Been watching videos from Abraham Hicks, Marrisa Peers, Joe Dispenza, etc the past few months. Practicing my own affirmations have been a gamechanger for me. Here are my following affirmations
1. I am enough( newly inspired quote after listening to Marissa Peers)
2. I am exactly where I need to be right now and I look forward to where I end up going
3.I write my own story.
Hi Thomas – Thank you SO much for sharing your affirmations. They are all fantastic and the ‘I am exactly where I need to be right now…” really resonates with me. I think I will use that one as well. I will have to check out those videos you mention. Take care! 🙂
