Your first thought about yourself in the morning sets the tone for the rest of the day, even if you have morning breath and your glasses on. (FYI, you’re stunning every second of the day.) While loving yourself is important, it can be hard to feel your best right from the jump. If you need an extra little pick me up or a reminder to create peace and positivity in your life, consider leaving yourself notes on the mirror. It sounds like a cliché way to add some good energy to your life, but it works. Seeing positive affirmations every time you look at yourself can be a fantastic way to get yourself in that self-love mood. And if you have a roommate or SO who could use some extra love, you can leave notes for them, too. Who doesn’t love a compliment?
Whether you are looking for just an extra way to show some self-love, empower yourself more, or just spark joy, here are 40 affirmations for good energy. Take this moment to remember you are loved, beautiful, and deserving of every opportunity. So, grab a sticky note in your favorite color, and your favorite pen (we know you have one) and write yourself some affirmations to read first thing every day and during your nighttime skincare routine. Look at you, you’re glowing already!
