165 Powerful Self Love Affirmations to Embrace Your Worthiness

You are absolutely deserving of your own love, dear friend. So, if you tend to be too hard on yourself, these affirmations of self love are for you. Read through this list and allow yourself to remember how worthy you truly are.

Do Affirmations Work for Self Love?

Yes, affirmations absolutely work for self love. Self-love affirmations are positive statements that encourage you to adopt new beliefs about yourself and what you deserve. These self-love affirmations will help you to transform your views of yourself so that you can show up as your own nurturer and best friend. 

As you go through life, different experiences and interactions can cause you to adopt limiting beliefs about yourself that are completely untrue. So if you struggle with feelings like these, then you have a tremendous opportunity for self healing:

• Unworthiness
• Shame or guilt
• Resentment
• Anxiety
• Self-sabotage

These emotions are at the low end of the emotional guidance scale and are signals that you deserve more of your own love, compassion, and forgiveness.

As you affirm positive statements about yourself, they’ll begin to affect your thoughts, words, and actions as you move through your daily life. You’ll notice that your choices, perceptions, and preferences will begin to shift. 

How Do Self Love Affirmations Work?

All positive affirmations work because of the law of attraction. Law of attraction is a universal principle that tells us we create our own reality based on our beliefs. 

So as your beliefs about your worthiness improve, every area of your life will begin to improve as well. 

Choose affirmations that make you feel soothed, calm, hopeful, and happy. As you tap into these positive emotions, your vibration will rise, making you a magnet for beautiful experiences.

How To Use Self Love Affirmations

Once you’ve found a few affirmations that hit home, you can work them into your self-care routine in many ways. Here are some ideas to explore:

Self-Love Journaling

You can use any of these affirmations as a self-love journal prompt. Consider the following:

• What the affirmation means to you
• How upgrading your beliefs will improve your life.
• Ways you can practice more self-love.
• Beliefs and fears holding you back

Or, you can repeat your affirmation on paper using the 33×3 or 55×5 manifestation methods to help it sink into your subconscious.

Mirror Work

Have you ever looked yourself dead in the eye and affirmed words of love? If the thought makes you cringe, then you need to try this! Loving and praising yourself should feel comfortable and natural. Keep it up for a week or so and notice the changes that surface.

Meditation

Instead of trying to empty your mind for meditation, focus on your affirmation instead. You can even try repeating it as a mantra. Using green or pink mala beads to help you keep track of your repetitions adds even more power to your meditation practice.

Conclusion

I hope these affirmations of self love help you to remember that you are good, worthy, and loveable. If this post brought you comfort, please share it so others can find it, too.

You deserve the very best in all things! I am wishing you a life filled with love and joy as you explore your path.
