Reciting a mantra or affirmation is a powerful way to insert positive thoughts into your subconscious. The right affirmations can train your mind to be happier and improve mood, self esteem and discipline.
“May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.”
Psalms 19:14 NIV
A man ought to know that it is not easy for him to have an opinion (or fixed principal), if he does not say daily the same things and hear the same things and at the same time apply them to life.
Epictetus
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature.
Marcus Aurelius
