33 Affirmations To Keep Yourself Calm and Collected

Right now, we all need to feel more at peace with life. Feelings of uncertainty and strife are everyday struggles for most these days, so it is vital to find a ritual or practice that helps calm and center you as you begin and end your day. Using affirmations for stress is one great spiritual practice that can relax you and reinforce support.

Affirmations work by daily reinforcement. They speak to your subconscious mind and help you reframe any negative thoughts, patterns, or beliefs that keep you stuck in an unhealthy cycle. When working to create a sense of calm, keep your verbs in the present and future tense to set forth a pattern of habit, you wish to create moving forward with your life.

Carrying a worry stone around with you and rubbing it when you feel unease can also help alleviate stress when needed. Some worry stones even have affirmations carved into them that you can use to raise the vibration of your intention. Go with your intuition if you feel it is right for you. Intuitively, we will often be drawn to items that are the best tools for our situation.

Below is a list of positive affirmations that are meant to be spoken aloud with deep breathing exercises to relax the mind and body. If you have the ability to record them and listen back, feel free to do so. They are helpful when used like this with headphones while lying down.
