Affirmation Art to Make a Positive Shift in Your Mindset

What we say to ourselves matters. 

The good news is that our brain can continue to change and evolve even in adulthood. Meaning, even if you’re stuck in some negative thought patterns, that doesn’t always have to be the case. 

A practice that has gained some popularity, for good reason, is the practice of repeating and embodying affirmations. Affirmations are positive statements about ourselves that can help us shift our mindset and thought patterns over time.

Examples of affirmations: 
  • I am strong.
  • My body is capable of amazing things.
  • I prioritize my needs.

We can practice embodying affirmations in a number of ways:
  • Place the written phrases around your house, care, workplace, etc.
  • Have a visual cue with the affirmation on it (such as an affirmation card or affirmation poster) and repeat the statement to yourself.
  • State the affirmation and ask yourself, “If I were someone who believed this statement, how might I show up today?”
  • Use the affirmation as a journal prompt and write about the ways that this statement is true (in big and small ways).

My Affirmation Poster workshop combines art making and affirmations, the perfect pairing for some creative self-care that also has the potential to help enhance your wellbeing over time. This online, self-paced workshop involves a simple process that you can repeat over and over again for different pieces of artwork. What you create will be unique to you and include a mantra that resonates most with you in the moment you create it.

I love using magazines in my art, so it’s no surprise that they’re showing up in this workshop. Magazines are accessible (financially, emotionally, creatively), full of imagery, colors, and words, and a great starting point to begin making some art. 

Sign up for free for the 6 Self-paced Workshop Bundle (free download) to gain access to this workshop and 5 others! The Workshop Bundle will arrive immediately to your inbox after sign up.

Enjoy and, as always, please share your work if it feels good for you. I’d love to see what you create.

Ways to share your work: 
  • Post a photo to social media, and tag me at @theLOVESUM
  • Join my free Art for the Heart Facebook group and share with the community of other big-hearted people using art to enhance their well-being.
