At The Holy Mess, we use affirmations.

Affirmations are truth statements.

Here are examples:

• I can do hard things.
• My mess becomes my message.
• I will follow my food plan today.

If you've struggled with your weight for a long time, you've probably told yourself lies like:

• I can't lose weight no matter what I try.
• I have no willpower.
• I'll never lose this weight. Why bother.

You might have said these things to yourself hundreds or even thousands of times. That's created a pathway in your brain, like a well-worn trail through a grassy field.

Thinking and speaking the truth creates a new path. Trust me, the new path is the one you want to be on.

Use our printable cards to reaffirm the new paths you are creating with healthier thoughts.

I respect if you think affirmations are cheesy and not your thing. I used to think that, too.

Give them a try and see what happens.
