Using Affirmations to Help You Heal After Loss by Karen Noe l Words to Heal l Inspirational Words l Inspiring Words

In order for you to heal after losing a loved one, it’s very important for you to shift your focus on how your deceased loved ones lived, not how they died, on the blessings in your life, on the happy times, and on positive goals ahead of you. At first it may seem very difficult to do, given all that has happened, but after awhile of deliberately changing your thoughts to more positive ones, it will get easier and easier.

Repeating positive affirmations throughout the day will help you to do this. Make sure they are in the present tense and you feel good when you say them. Here are some examples of affirmations you can use as you are going through your healing process.

I’m Willing to be Happy Again

It is very important to acknowledge that you want to feel well again. Repeat this statement, as well as the other ones, over and over throughout the day for the most benefit. The bottom line is that in order for you to heal your grief, you must at least attempt to focus more on the positive aspects around you. This is not always easy, especially after losing a loved one! However, it is imperative to realize that your main thoughts are creating the dominant feelings you are having, not the other way around. So it makes sense to that when you deliberately change your thoughts from negative ones to positive ones, you will begin to feel better as well.
