God loves me and I love me. If you feel uncomfortable, stick with it until you push through your barriers and are able to fully experience looking at, and loving, yourself. You may find this very emotional and healing. Record your affirmations on a tape recorder and play them to yourself while alone. Write out a particular affirmation longhand 10 or 20 times in succession, really thinking about the words as you write them.
Repetition is one of the most powerful techniques and it is one of the easiest to do.
Write or type out your affirmations and post them in various places at home or at work as reminders. Remember, though, your affirmations are yours alone and not to be shared with coworkers or family. Amazing and dramatic changes can be made in your life just by beginning to consciously speak more positively during daily conversation.
