Write Your Affirmations
Writing your affirmations makes them more tangible. Studies have shown that the physical act of writing enables your brain to remember better. Choose your favorite way of recording your own affirmations. Keep a journal; write post-it notes and leave them where they’re easy to see, on your fridge, bathroom mirror, and computer. Set reminders on your smartphone or tablet with the text of each affirmation at different times of the day.
Make Affirmation Themed Art
This might sound a little off the wall, but try making art themed around your affirmations. Use paint, collage, clay, or colored pencils, and let your Inner Child play with colors and shapes to interpret how your affirmations make you feel.
Turn Your Affirmations into Music
Take a familiar or favorite tune and sing your affirmations instead of the regular lyrics. If you’re musical, maybe you can write a song that uses your affirmations. Make a rap song about your affirmations and create a dance routine to go with it.
Vision Board Your Affirmations
Vision boards are powerful tools for setting out your goals. Affirmations can sometimes feel a little abstract. Using a vision board can help you come up with concrete images of what you want in your life. Look for photos that inspire you and make you feel good. You can make a physical vision board or use an internet platform like Pinterest.

Get inspired
Look around for motivational speakers and writers whose approach to life appeals to you. You can find plenty of motivational talks on the internet, on platforms like TED Talks and YouTube. Search for motivation from people you admire or those who have made their dreams come true while overcoming adversity.
It’s essential to find someone whose values and approach feel right for you. Don’t watch an influencer just because they’re popular. Check back with your affirmations to see if their themes ring true to you.

I think these tips are great.
I want to make a vision board so bad. I have heard how powerful they can be, and I want to see for myself.
As it is, I keep my affirmations in my journal. I’m not just flapping in the breeze with nowhere to store my affirmations.
Thanks!
Kyle, if you make a vision board, I’d love to see it!

These are great suggestions. I personally always like to write them down.
I’ve found that the act of writing things down makes them more real and they stick better to my brain.
I really love how you’ve connected affirmations with a creative outlet — I feel like this will be a beautiful way to be more intentional with what we say and do to support ourselves. I had not considered singing my affirmations or turning them into artwork, but this sounds like something I could really benefit from. Thanks for sharing!
