Affirmations for Love

What are affirmations for love?

Before we get into affirmations for love, we first need to discuss the meaning of the word affirmations. What are they exactly?

Affirmations are empowering sentences or words that have profound effects on the conscious and subconscious mind. This can be in a positive as well as in a negative way. The following are examples of affirmations:

• “I'm definitely not capable of doing that” 
• “I will never succeed”
• “I will never find the ideal partner”

Obviously these sentences are negative, the kind you would rather not think about. But let’s be honest, how often do you say these things to yourself? The more negativity you allow in, the bigger the chance that you really start to believe in it.

Affirmations can be used to give these conscious and subconscious ideas a positive twist. By telling yourself something over and over again and repeating the affirmation often enough, you give it empowerment and eventually start to believe in it. The way you think will eventually determine what you do and how you do it.

Are you aware of how powerful your thoughts are? If you change your thoughts (i.e. by using positive affirmations) you can change your life.

What are affirmations? Meaning and background.

What affirmations should I use for love?

Everyone needs love in their life. We want to love and be loved. Have a relationship in which we can be ourselves, trust one another, be honest with each other, and experience unconditional love.

It’s not a fairy tale. Everyone is capable of having a relationship like this, as long as they believe in it. People who believe in love and trust that they are going to meet the right person, will meet the love of their life when the time is right.

Affirmations for love help you to start believing in love. You can use these affirmations to welcome the love of your life into your world, as well as to deepen your relationships. You’re actually training your subconscious to be open to love.

Examples of affirmations for love:

• I am surrounded by love.
• I deserve love and affection.
• I only attract healthy relationships.
• I am lovable.
• I am worthy of love.

How do I create a love affirmation?

It really doesn’t matter which affirmations for love you use. The most important part is that the affirmation is right for you and that you really feel it. That’s why it’s perfectly fine to create them yourself. When doing so keep in mind the three P’s of affirmations:

• Personal. An affirmation doesn't work if it feels like a list of school rules. Your affirmation needs to resonate with you. So use your own words when creating the affirmation, the same words you would use in real life.
  
• Positive. Make your affirmation(s) positive. Don’t say what you don’t want (‘I don’t want to meet the wrong person’) but what you do want (‘I’m open to meeting a loving person’).
  
  
• Present tense. Speak your affirmations in the present tense, as if they are already reality. This way you fool yourself a bit and subconsciously believe that the affirmation has actually become reality.

Affirmations for love can be used in different ways. To begin with, try the affirmations in our app. The affirmations in the Meditation Moments app will help you to welcome love into your life and deepen existing relationships. We developed a track that focuses on love. The combination of the spoken affirmation with music makes it sound like a resonating meditation. These affirmations are also great to listen to while doing sports.

Play the affirmations before you go to sleep

Play the affirmations for love (from the app) while you’re lying in bed. Your subconscious will register the message without having to focus on it (even if you fall asleep).

Mirror work

Mirror work is a method developed by Louise Hay, a popular author who made extensive use of affirmations. She believed that the most powerful affirmations are those you say out loud in front of the mirror, while looking at yourself. This is an incredibly powerful method to connect with your inner self, experience self-love and strengthen relationships with others.

Do affirmations work for relationships?

Yes, affirmations also work for relationships. Affirmations for love help you in believing that everyone, including yourself, is worthy of love! Every human being deserves a strong and positive loving relationship.

But there is a catch. Affirmations provide a strong foundation, however you need to do the rest yourself. If you’re looking for a loving relationship, you won’t find it by sitting on the couch and listening to affirmations. You have to be open to going out and meeting people.
