When in recovery from trauma or dealing with mental health issues, like anxiety or depression, you may be surprised at the effect of the words that you use. Words can have healing power for those of us in recovery. We might be prone to viewing the world in a negative light. We can start to see the positive in life by embracing powerful and healing words. We can use these words to help us when we are overcome by negative thoughts and feelings. Sometimes we can provide ourselves with the help we need. We may feel alone and while we can reach out for support when needed, we can also start to help ourselves by watching our words. We can try to replace some of our negative words and phrases with positive empowering mantras, like:
- “I am strong!”
- “I am a survivor!”
- “I will thrive!”
- “I will overcome this obstacle!”
- “I am worth the struggle!”
- “I can do this!”
- “I deserve to be happy!”
- “I will seek healing!”
- “I cannot control my past, but I can change my outlook for a brighter future!”
- “Nothing can keep me down!”
- “I have loving people who care for me!”
- “I can achieve my goals!”
- “I can overcome adversity!”
- “I will smile today!”
Try to adopt some of these phrases into your daily life. By using mantras, we are harnessing the transformative power of words to work to our advantage. We can use these phrases to help boost our mood during times when we feel low. Recite a mantra every day to build a positive frame of mind focused on empowerment and recovery!
