Tips for writing your holiday affirmations
Affirmations become more personal when you write your own. But following some rules is beneficial:
Focus on your desired emotion
What qualities do you want to develop during the holidays (e.g., gratitude, joy, peace)? Choose affirmations that directly address those feelings. eg: (“I nourish my body and celebrate with joy.”)
Start with “I”
Affirmations written in the first person feel more personal and impactful. eg: (“I open my heart to receive and share love abundantly.”)
Use positive language
Focus on what you want, not what you don’t want. eg: (“I make mindful choices with my finances, allowing space for generosity.”)
Keep it simple and present tense
Short, easy-to-understand affirmations are more likely to remember. Use present tense to reinforce the feeling happening now. eg: (“My heart radiates peace in this present moment.”)
Personalize it
Make the affirmation meaningful to you by referencing specific traditions, values, or loved ones. eg: (“I am overflowing with gratitude for cozy nights by the fireplace with loved ones.”)
Connect it to the holidays
Weave in holiday elements that resonate with you (e.g., twinkling lights, carols, snowflakes). eg: (“In the glow of twinkling lights and festive carols, I cherish each moment with childlike wonder.”)
Make it actionable
Include how you will actively embody the affirmation. eg: (“Today, I reach out to a friend with a heartfelt message.”)
Repeat and believe
Repetition is key to internalizing the affirmation. Say it with conviction and feel the emotions behind the words.
Note that these are only the beginnings. Making affirmations that are real and potent for you is what matters most. Cheers to writing and enjoying the holidays!
Final thoughts on holiday affirmations
And there you have it; amidst the hustle and bustle of the festive season holiday affirmations serve as subtle reminders to calm down, contemplate, and reconnect with the true essence of this time.

They were more than just feel-good phrases; they instilled gratitude for the present moment, joy with loved ones, and a willingness to appreciate the season.
