110 Positive Self-Love Affirmations to Cultivate Self-Appreciation

If you’ve been struggling with self-love, self-worth, low self-esteem, and acceptance, please remember that what you are experiencing right now is totally normal.

Most people have experienced or are experiencing this right now, especially with what’s happening in the world, so you are definitely NOT the only one!

The relationship you have with yourself is the most complicated because you can’t walk away from yourself. You have to forgive every mistake. You have to deal with every flaw. You have to find a way to love yourself even when you’re disgusted with yourself.

This is where positive affirmations for self-love and self-worth come in handy!

But why do we fail to practice self-love?

If you don’t know already, our brain just LOVES to overthink.

It is said that the average human mind has around 6,200⁽¹⁾ thoughts per day. Almost 95% of them are repetitive and almost 80(!)% of them are negative. Mind-blowing, huh?

Do you ever catch yourself saying things like:

• “I’m not good enough”,
• “There is no way I can do that”,
• “I don’t deserve this”,
• “I don’t think I’ll ever…”
• or “I am not smart enough”?

I know I’m guilty of this…

It’s crazy because we don’t go around judging if others deserve love or not, but we’re so hard on ourselves. Logically, self-love or at the very least neutrality should be the default, but it isn’t.

Some people find it easier to practice self-love than others, but the fact that you have to give yourself love consciously is wild.

There are several reasons why someone may struggle with self-love and self-acceptance. They are shown in the infographic down below:

Self-love affirmations might be exactly what you’re looking for right now to boost your self-esteem.

The more you practice them, the more your self-esteem improves.

And with higher self-esteem, life just gets better exponentially!

How To Use Positive Affirmations For Self-Love And Self-Worth.

First of all, you have to understand this.

You can go to the gym every single day, drink your water, and take your vitamins, but if you don’t deal with the things going on inside your heart and head, you’re still going to be unhealthy and unhappy.

We are led to believe that happiness is about what is on the outside, but as someone who battles with myself every day… I really wish we had been taught mental well-being growing up and not just physical.

There are a few different ways to use positive affirmations.

My personal favorite is to practice affirmations in the morning. I find that it sets me up with a positive mindset to tackle the day.

Of course, you don’t have to repeat all 110 of them.

These are suggestions and what has worked for me personally. Pick a few that hit home and resonate with you, and repeat them daily.

Preferably at the start and the end of your day.

At first, it will definitely feel like lying to yourself for sure. But eventually, through repetition, you’ll start to believe in them.

Keep in mind that progress doesn’t happen overnight.

You’ve probably talked negatively to yourself for a very long time, so it takes some time to rewire your brain into loving thoughts.

Just keep up with it, be consistent, and you’ll see tremendous results.

I promise.
