Can affirmations heal the body?
Yes, affirmations can heal your body. When practiced regularly, affirmations can help clear emotional blocks that affect your physical health, reduce stress that weakens the body's immune system and stop your unhealthy habits.
How do affirmations heal the body?
There are several ways that positive words and quotes can heal your body. Here are some of them:
- It is medically proven that stress suppresses your immune system and makes it less efficient. Stress also increases cortisol which is linked to high blood pressure, weight gain, anxiety, high blood sugar, sleep disorders and more. People who affirm their values experience less stress and perform better under stressful situations. Their cortisol levels are lower.
- Epigenetics is the study of how lifestyle, environment, and mental states can turn genes on or off — without changing the DNA itself. Mindfulness and positive emotions will make you happier, more confident and relaxed. This, in turn, influences which genes are turned on or off in your DNA.
- Sometimes, mental blocks can show up in the body as physical pain. Affirmations can help clear these blocks and relieve the pain.
- When you affirm things like “I take good care of my body”, you’re more likely to change your behaviour around food, exercise and self care. Affirmations give you a boost of motivation.
- Our bodies have a natural healing intelligence that can be activated through meditation and affirmations.
