Time for a mindset shift with end of the year affirmations

December isn’t exactly the most care-free, chill time of year (usually quite the opposite!). So while it is fun, it can also be totally stressful! I’m sure you’d agree that you could use a little encouragement to keep chugging along.

These December affirmations for the end of the year will be your go-to for looking back at what you’ve rocked, setting new goals, and giving yourself a much-needed positivity boost.

We’re all about having a stress-free December, filled with mindfulness and self-care!

What is an affirmation?

Affirmations are short, powerful statements that influence your inner self-talk. Believe it or not, we experience SO many thoughts per day (more than 6,000, actually!) and some can be less kind than others.

The cool thing about affirmations is that when practiced often enough, they can actually re-train our brains to choose positive self talk instead of negative!

Is your inner critic a little harsh? If so, you would see a lot of benefit from practicing these December 1st affirmations.

The more you speak, write, and reflect on positive affirmations, the more you will begin to believe them. This is immensely powerful for improving your mental health and mindset!
