10 Affirmations for Going With the Flow

Life may seem to be moving at a snail’s pace as you wait for the world to get back to normal. That feeling of wanting to move forward may mean that you’re being all too hard on yourself about things you’re not doing.

Allowing yourself to think about all the “shoulds” and “what if’s” just isn’t necessary and can suck a lot of energy out of you.

But before you beat yourself up even more for being hard on yourself, give yourself a pass for it right now. Recognizing a thought pattern is step one in recovering the joy you deserve in life, even during a pandemic, and whatever else you might currently be going through.

The following affirmations have been crafted to help you relax a little bit and allow you to “go with the flow” of where life is currently taking you…because sometimes that’s all we can (and should) do!

How Do I Use These Affirmations?

  • You can use the affirmation you choose with meditation beads, also known as mala beads. For each bead, recite the affirmation one time until you’ve held all the beads. Do that once per day until you feel the shift you desired has become a habit. You can continue doing it as long as you’d like.
  • Record yourself saying one or more of the calming affirmations for five minutes and listen to the recording right when you wake up before getting out of bed, on your way to work, and right before you fall asleep.
  • Write the affirmation 20 times each day in your journal and feel in every fiber of your being that it is true every time you write it.
  • Write a bunch of sticky-notes with the calming affirmation you choose and place them around the house to get you in tune with that way of thinking.

6. “Being hard on myself will not lead to growth.”

This uses the power of your intention to replace fear with trust. This will help you see possibilities instead of problems and will help your body trust your gut instincts.

More Helpful Tips for Going With the Flow

Be sure to give yourself ample time to relax and unwind each day. That means don’t work right until it’s time to go to sleep.

Do something that helps you enjoy the day, every day.

Maybe give yourself time to cook something delicious, watch a movie, or take a stroll in the park. Surround yourself with spiritual tools that will help you stay connected to the vibration of loving-kindness, whether it’s a picture of nature, plants, incense, crystals, or meditation music.

Make it a personal goal to really go with the flow this week and remind yourself of that goal each day. Notice how it brings up new ideas of how you could spend your time and what you can let go of that creates too much pressure on yourself.
