Affirmations are a simple yet powerful way to shift your mindset and nurture self-belief. Repeating positive “I AM” statements helps you reprogramme old thought patterns, strengthen self-worth, and step confidently into the life you desire.
The use of “I AM” in affirmations is powerful because it connects the affirmation directly to your sense of self. By starting with “I AM,” you are affirming your identity and reinforcing the belief that what follows is already true about you.
Whether you’re starting your day, facing a challenge, or simply need a reminder of your own strength, these affirmations are here to lift you up.
Why ‘I AM’ Affirmations Are So Powerful
“I AM” affirmations are identity statements. You are declaring to the world that this is who you are. You are owning the statement. And when you repeat them regularly your brain begins to internalise these messages as truth. Over time they can help shift negative self-talk, build confidence, and reinforce the version of yourself you want to embody. You’re not just saying you are something… you’re becoming it.
💛 How to Use These Affirmations
- Say them out loud or repeat them silently to yourself throughout the day (Focus on 1-3 as they’ll be easier to remember)
- Write them down – Choose one or two affirmations to write on a piece of paper or your journal as this really helps your subconcious mind to take it all in
- Speak them whilst looking into a mirror for extra impact

How to Create Your Own ‘I AM’ Affirmations ✍️
While ready made affirmations are a great start, creating your own can feel even more powerful. Tailor made affirmations to suit you and your specific circumstances will be that much more powerful.
Here are a few tips:
- Keep them short, clear and easy to remember – For example, “I am calm and capable”.
- Stay positive, don’t focus on the negative – For example, don’t say things like “I don’t want to struggle for money any more”, instead say “Money flows to me in expected and unexpected ways”.
- Use present tense – This helps reinforce the belief that whatever you are affirming is a reality right now.
- Focus on one thing at a time – Chances are you want to change more than one thing in your life. Don’t bog yourself down by trying to do them all at once. Start with the one thing that matters most or the one thing you believe would be the easiest to change and go from there.
When to Use These Affirmations
There’s no wrong time to use affirmations, but here are a few times where they really shine:
- First thing in the morning to set your tone for the day
- During your skincare routine or while getting dressed
- When journaling or reflecting
- Before a stressful event or meeting

The key is to repeat them regularly and mindfully
As women in today’s world we’re often juggling multiple roles and expectations, sometimes losing sight of our own worth in the process. But it’s so important to remember that you are not just the sum of your responsibilities. You are a powerful, deserving, and worthy individual and it’s okay to take time for yourself, to stand in your own power and to affirm that you are enough. So, give yourself permission to shine, embrace your journey, and know that you are deserving of every ounce of love and success that comes your way.
