40 Powerful Self Care Affirmations For Moms

Motherhood is both the greatest blessing and the biggest challenge of my life. It has made me beam with joy and pride while also wreaking havoc on my mental health.

Which is exactly why it is so important to tend to our mental and emotional health regularly

Your thoughts are incredibly powerful in shaping your reality, which is why it is so important to choose your thoughts on purpose. That is where these self care affirmations for moms come in.

I used to think that affirmations were silly. I didn’t think I could just tell myself that I was an amazing mother when I didn’t believe it was true, and then magically turn into Carol Brady. And I still don’t.

In fact, think that is the problem that most people find with positive affirmations and mantras. In response to that, I would tell you to start with something that you do believe and then build on that.

You may be surprised by how much of an impact positive affirmations can have on your mental and emotional health if you use them intentionally. Read more about the benefits of affirmations here.

To start, pick just one self care affirmation from this list that resonates with you, and repeat it to yourself every time you think of it. Try it for a few days and see if it is improving your mindset.

In addition to reciting affirmations, I also like to have them around my home, like on my coffee mug or hanging on the wall. It’s a great way to remind myself of the positive throughout the day.
