I was always that kid who was way too excited to go back to school: I am both a Capricorn and a teacher’s pet, so I have the senior superlative to prove it. As far back as elementary school, I can remember getting excited to pick out pencils and notebooks and I would carefully decorate and label everything for the perfect year. My secret? Entering the school year with a positive attitude, and a few positive affirmations on repeat in my mind.Â
Affirmations are the perfect way to speak positivity into action. Saying or writing these statements is a way to manifest good energy and have the power to chase away negative thoughts, which sounds like exactly what we need as we transition back into the school year. Putting these thoughts into your mind can challenge you to focus on positivity instead of negative allowing you to be your happiest self. The new school year can be a stressful time, so it’s the perfect opportunity to put some empowering mantras on your mirror to feel ready to take on any class this school year.
