Affirmations & positive self-talk: Can they really help you heal?

Hello everyone, how are you doing today? 😊

You’ve probably come across affirmations or positive self-talk at some point, those little phrases meant to boost your mood, shift your mindset, or support your healing journey.

Some people swear by them. Others find them too simplistic, especially when you’re living with chronic pain or ongoing health challenges. Still, for many, the way we speak to ourselves can make a real difference in how we cope day to day.

💬 So let’s talk:

• Have you ever tried using affirmations or positive self-talk?
  
• Did it help your mental health, your symptoms, or the way you relate to your body?
  
• Or did it feel frustrating or even invalidating?

Your experiences, the good and the not-so-good, might help someone else feel less alone in their own journey.
