Affirmations For Teenagers
Introduction
Most
teenagers face a big spectrum of problems. Some of them, for example, are peer
pressure, body image consciousness, health issues due to poor eating habits,
emotional issues, as well as balancing work and play.
Things are moving and changing fast for teenagers, with that comes some
uncertainty, awkwardness and fear. Teenagers are just about coping with
hormonal, physical changes and getting used to their new image with facial hair,
facial features and not to forget acne. Our media is also much to blame, when
perfect bodies are portrayed as the norm, for bringing the confidence of a
teenager down.
Obesity
One
of the growing problems in today’s world is child obesity. Teenagers with poor
eating habits and that live off processed foods can have physical and emotional
health problems. A lack of healthy foods can also affect their work performance.
Teenagers also face reaching a balance between work and play. On the academic
front they face huge pressures on a number of projects to be completed, coping
with tests, focusing on professional choices, sports and other extracurricular
activities to meet parental expectation. On the other side hanging out with
friends, partying, building relationships, the internet and media are big
distractions.
Being A Part Of Society
They want to be part of society and accepted by others and that’s where huge
parental support comes into play. Children are the next generation and will be
in charge of tomorrow’s world. To have people who are balanced mentally and
emotionally, with a positive mental attitude towards life, a stable loving
atmosphere is a must. Childhood years are very formative and impressible in
one’s life. A good foundation to a child’s development is putting them in tje
habit of saying positive affirmations. In comparison to adults, children and
teenagers carry very little emotional baggage.
Positive Thinking and Affirmations
Their subconscious mind is nearly clean and the amount of unlearning to be done
is very little. That is why children's affirmations work pretty fast. One of the
ways to make children get into the habit of affirmations is by writing and
displaying affirmations around the house. Good habits formed at this stage of
life will last for a lifetime. You can tailor the affirmations according to your
child’s needs and what they are going thorough in their specific phase of life.
Most teenagers neither appreciate or understand the power of affirmations. It
is important to teach them and make them understand this lifelong beneficial
skill for combating problems and building a great future ahead of them.
