Anjali Lavania Instagram – We can think of a positive thought for a second but then all our fears, doubts, past experiences, judgments, social conditioning, low self-esteem, over-analysis and all kinds of negativity start pouring back in. Why do we zone in on negativity more than positivity? I know many people who try their best to be positive but then the first sign of things not going their way – they immediately lose momentum and start feeling miserable. This is because theoretically, we might know the importance of positivity but practically, we need to reprogram our subconscious mind through affirmations. You see over years and years of neglect, the subconscious mind has developed a habit of constantly thinking negatively, and one of the effective ways to undo this – is through the repetition of affirmations. Just like how the repetition of crunches over months develops abs. So today, I will share how to create a manifestation affirmation to program your subconscious mind for whatever you want to manifest. It is important to make your desire – a highly charged emotional affirmation. Then end the affirmation with gratitude as if it has already come into your reality. Emotions carry strong vibrational frequencies. The universe is a mirror that does not reflect words but reflects emotions. So if you say your affirmations robotically without really feeling what you are saying -it won’t help you. Affirmations & prayer only work when emotions are attached to the words and pictures. How to Create a Manifestation Affirmation: A, CLEAR GOAL: I want to do a headstand. B, FIND MAIN REASON WHY? – I will become more flexible and fit. C, DETERMINE A SPECIFIC DATE – I will do a headstand in 3 months. D, CREATE A DEFINITE ACTION PLAN: I will practice yoga every day E, MAKE IT A 3 SENTENCE HIGHLY CHARGED AFFIRMATION: I love practicing yoga every day. I am fit and flexible. Practicing yoga every day gives me the flexibility to do a headstand. F, REPEAT THIS HIGHLY CHARGED AFFIRMATION 6 X A DAY. Note: While saying the affirmation: Make sure you join your fingertips together in prayer (this rewires both hemispheres of your brain) + Visualize what you want with gratitude 🙏
