Jumpstarting Your Day: 65 Daily Affirmations For Women

It isn't always easy being a woman.

Many people feel that women have a tougher time than men in this world. The notion that men are the stronger and smarter sex is categorically untrue, and yet men have been ruling the world since the beginning of time. Women have had to fight their way to the top for equality. In the United States, they are still making 82 cents to every man’s dollar. There has been no female president, and movements such as the Me Too movement have really shone a  light on what a lot of women already knew—that many women live in fear of being sexually assaulted or harassed every day, whether you are in the workplace, in a place of higher learning, or simply trying to live your life.

The cutting down of women’s rights is a real and current concern; issues such as the right to choose and have bodily autonomy are hot political topics we see on the news every day. The United States is the only first world country that does not mandate paid maternity leave. And it has not even been 100 years since women earned the right to vote. Every day, women fight against the patriarchy—for positions in the workplace, for equality, for respect everywhere.

So, with all of this going on, being a woman can be exhausting. Add that to whatever battles you may be facing in your personal life, and it can wear you down. Yet women are strong and independent and worthy of praise. That is something that should never be forgotten.

What are some ways you can remind yourself that you're strong, independent, and worthy of praise? Consider daily affirmations. In this article, we outline 36 positive affirmations for women. 

Positive energy for your day

Life is hard. Every day, we face challenges—both old and new. One way to get through the day is to start with some positive energy. Having daily positive affirmations to turn to is one way to help get that positive energy flowing. Daily affirmations are simple, positive statements. They help you declare specific goals for yourself and can help pick you up if you're feeling low. While they may seem simplistic, daily affirmations can plant their way into both your subconscious and your consciousness and have profound, positive effects on you and your day.

“Lakesha was absolutely amazing! She helped me find myself and realize my self worth in such a short period! I highly recommend her services she is FRESH and has amazing insight!”

“I don’t know what I would have done without Harry. I was in a super low place and I was not sure what my problems were or how to solve them, but he was able to help me get to the bottom of my problems and work through them. Today I am happy and feeling like myself again. He was so easy to talk to and worked with me whenever I needed him. Even on vacation he took time to call me and talk through whatever I was going through. I would highly recommend him.”
