290 Powerful Positive Family Affirmations

As the old saying goes, we don’t choose our family. Familial relationships can be wonderful and incredibly rich, but they can also be challenging. Family relationships take work, and sometimes that work is more cumbersome than others. Affirmations offer a way to conduct some of the bond-building that families need at times to understand each other and to operate from a place of compassion as opposed to resentment or frustration.

affirmations about loved ones

These affirmations are divided into categories so you and your family can begin based on where you are in your relationship. Consider what your family needs. Is it forgiveness? Perhaps it’s understanding or empathy? It may simply be love and affection.

If you are new to affirmations, you may wonder how they work and what kind of impact they can have on you and your family. Sure, it may seem strange to speak something out loud that feels generic or vague. But the methodology behind affirmations comes from the law of attraction. What we affirm into the universe comes back to us. Sometimes, we simply need to say things aloud to gain a deeper understanding of what is happening inside our minds and bodies.

How to go about your affirmations? The beautiful part about affirmations is that you can do them for yourself, alone. Or you can do them with your family members as a group exercise. Whichever options suit your family best, we recommend going with.

You may also prefer to do some together and others separately, which is fine as well. When you speak the affirmation, try your best to feel what you are saying and manifest what you truly want out of saying it. Believe in the statement. If the statement does not resonate with you don’t then move on to another. And don’t be afraid to sub in your family member’s name so that each affirmation feels more tangible.

Our final note before you begin your affirmations is that your family is not alone in feeling, at times, dysfunctional or disjointed. Familial relationships, whether they are between you and your siblings or your parents or your aunt and cousin, are foundational in our lives. Developing a healthy mindset is essential to growing together and learning to overcome conflict. These affirmations will help you on that vital path.
