Positive Affirmations for Beauty And Confidence (Which Have Absolutely Nothing To Do With Stereotypical Beauty Or Confidence)

If you know me, you’ll know I hate superficial, screen-worthy stuff.

I detest social media for how women often portray themselves (and how others portray women), all filtered, hair dyed, skin dyed, whatever else dyed too.

I despise how society defines women to look a certain way or be a certain shape.

This in essence is why I believe so much in wellbeing practices, because it’s never easy to be a woman.

We need to buff up our inner vibe to keep ourselves healthy.

On the plus side, I feel we’re starting to wake up to the bullshit narrative.

Like we’re all sick of striving to be ‘this or that’ and that, perhaps, just perhaps, we are enough?

As we are?

Without a man telling us so, or without being commented on for how we look or what we’re wearing.

But if you’re not feeling it (yet), these affirmations may help you.

They’re not affirmations for traditional beauty and confidence, mind you!

They’re affirmations for you to tune into your self-worth.

As you are today. Right now.

Without needing to change this or that to be worthy.

Let’s do this, shall we?

If you need guidance on implementing affirmations for best results, read this post first.


Affirmations For Beauty And Confidence

“I’m beautiful because I am me”

“I’m worthy of love and affection”

“I don’t need someone to tell me whether I can or can’t – I know I can!”

“I’m my own best friend if I choose to be”

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder – and I choose to see myself as beautiful”

“I don’t need to look like a model to be accepted and appreciated”

“I can find my own tribe when I need to”

“No one knows me as well as I know myself, and I choose to love myself unconditionally”

“Even though I don’t feel it yet, I can still BE it”

“Confidence is my birthright”

“I get to choose how I feel, and I choose to feel epic!”

“My physical appearance is reflected in my inner game”

“Inner beauty lasts way longer than outer appearances”

“I choose to think positive thoughts about myself RIGHT NOW”

“I am a beautiful person just as I am”

“When I do good things, I feel good things”

“With a can do attitude, I can conquer anything”

“Confidence is an inner game – and I’m keen to play that game well”

“I choose to be kind to myself now”

“I accept and love myself just as I am today”

“I get to choose how I feel on any given day”

“My mind is my power source”

“Confidence takes time and practise, and I’m willing to go for it”

“A healthy body is far more beautiful than a pretty face”

“I choose to wear a radiant smile, not a fake smile”

“I am the only one responsible for my life”

“My past experiences do not define me now”

“I can be who I want to be in any given moment. All it takes is choosing to be so”

“I am content in my own skin, as I am right now”

Quite saying "be enough for yourself first, the rest of the world can wait."
Quotes too can be amazing for confidence!

“Positive energy is my birthright and I choose to feel it every single day”

“When I tune into love, I exude love”

“Love is my choice of language, to myself first and foremost”

“I declare that I am enough, I am worthy, I am the best version of me”

“From this day forth I endeavour to banish negative self-talk from life”

“The best way to get confident is to practise it!”

“I become confident through experience or practice”

“True beauty doesn’t depend on your clothes size”

“Amazing things will happen when I start to see my own self worth”

“Natural beauty is something we’re all born with”

“A beautiful soul is a gift to share with others. I am a gift.”

“I am beautiful in my own unique way.”

“Negative thoughts do not define me nor rule my life – I’m always in control”

“Confidence is down to me, I can be confident right now if I choose to be!”

Daily Affirmations

The key to affirmations is to repeat them regularly.

Find a time of day where you get to be on your own (mums – evenings or early mornings are good when the kids sleep), and repeat them in your head or out loud.

Choose just one or two to begin with, and say them repeatedly.

My personal preference is to say them out loud. I repeat affirmations to myself on my early morning runs sometimes (it keeps me motivated to make it up the hill!)

...I'm all about living well and enjoying the present moment. I live life slow, finding meaning in the small things, and chill in my veggie patch as often as I can while running after my two toddlers. I despise social media, love extra hot mochas and crave deep and meaningful conversations. I share lots on this blog for inspiration - wellbeing & health tips (I'm a wellbeing coach with a healthcare background) mindfulness, country life, holistic health, frugal living and family travel to name a few. Welcome! x

😍 These are the days I crave Of doing 'nothin 😍
These are the days I crave
Of doing 'nothing's'
Which become 'everything's'
I am not that abnormal I know
Seeking out beauty in the mundane
Maybe I do stare at you a little too long?
My darlings
Captivated by your zest and youth
For today, my darlings, there was
No to-do list
No errands to run
Nowhere to go or be
Just home, here, with you
These are those days, my darlings
I shall look back on so fondly
As a greying, withering old woman
Shed a tear or two, I shall
For these are the best days of my life
With you two, my loves, my children
These are the days of my youth too
An active mind, a healthy body
So make the best of them - and you
I shall
I dislike talking about politics on social media. I dislike talking about politics on social media. 
But I've been shocked to the core with the news over the past few months, and of course in the USA this weekend, over women's abortion rights. 
(Whether you agree or disagree with abortion is another topic altogether).
What's shocking and heartbreaking is the backward step YET AGAIN for women's rights. 
We keep seeing, again and again, a pushback to old times. 
Times women before us fought hard against, which we'd long moved on from (or so I thought).
Think too about the rape victims in Bucha and other areas of Ukraine and the world. 
Why is the world going backwards? That's what I want to know.

Women,

I’ve got a love-hate relationship with the act of removing my body hair, I admit.
I wish I didn’t give a toss about what people thought of me. 
That I could go round, willy nilly, splashing my leg and arm hair with zero cares. 
What a dream!
But that’s not me.
Not that I’m obsessed with being hair-free – but it’s not what I want to be.
I love silky soft skin. There! I said it!
So I'm delighted to share in my latest blog post my thoughts on the zero-waste shave kit I got from @_weareffs

How can it be that something so innate, so biological, can have such different outcomes?
It baffled me. And I'm not talking about genetics. 
I'm purely talking about women's experiences as a mother to their children. 
Some women thrive. 
In my case, motherhood has been the most radical, positive, transformative stage of my life so far - giving me fuel and passion I never knew existed before. 
For others, it's not like that. 
Why, though? Why do we each have such different experiences?
I do not have support - other than my husband. No family nearby to babysit or anything like that. 
I do not have many friends, but the ones I do have, I treasure hugely. 
I do not earn much money - my coaching business earned me a total of $4k in its first year. 
I do not have the answers either. 
I only have my experience and opinions, which I readily share, in case it helps. 
Food for thought I guess. 
What makes our experiences all so different? 
I'd love to know your opinion?

I read this morning in a magazine that "modern life - stress and anxiety are becoming the norm."
Let's make a distinction with that. 
YES, rates of stress and anxiety are through the roof 
BUT
That does not make it NORMAL. 
Please, let's NOT normalise that.
And if you're anywhere near the stage of burnout (I've had it - past tense), then please get support. 
You could also check out the 'wellbeing' section of my blog for helpful tips in the meantime. 
Don't bury your head in the sand and struggle with burnout. 
It won't go away on its own (and I say speaking from experience)

I’ve been blogging for well over four years now I’ve been blogging for well over four years now (woot-woot!) And y’know what?
I ALWAYS felt uncomfortable talking about self-love.
*Cringe admitting this!*
Yet self-love is a topic that is super duper important to all of our individual well-being.
Ironic, huh?
Now, this could just be me, but I *thought* (notice – past tense) that self-love was actually another word for narcissism.
Seriously!
Glad to say I no longer think like this!
