Struggling with anxiety is not fun. It holds us back from many opportunities and can fully control our lives, but only if we let it.
Luckily there exist several coping mechanisms that can help calm you in even the worst situations. One of them is repeating positive affirmations, which can especially be a life-saver with social anxiety.
In this post, you’ll find 25 anxiety affirmations for calmness, tranquility, and healing. Use them when you feel anxious, panicked, stressed, or need to slow down all your racing thoughts.
How Anxiety Affirmations Work
Anxiety comes from a place of fear and insecurity. It’s that little voice in your head that keeps pulling you down. Saying you’re not good enough. You’re not pretty enough. You’re not talented enough. And the more you listen to that little voice, the worse it gets. It lays in your stomach like a rock and can bring many uncomfortable physical symptoms in the worst situations.
But what would happen if you switched the negative to the positive?
Positive affirmations can truly help you overcome anxiety. By repeating them regularly, you help re-program your mind to think positively and to calm yourself in any situation. And the more you keep repeating or even listening to them, the easier it will be to deal with your anxiety and eventually overcome it.
