]]> Affirmations are simple, positive statements, like “I am grateful for everything I have in my life” or “I am independent and self-sufficient.” But when repeated regularly, these phrases have the potential to reshape your mindset and improve your overall well-being. Let’s take a closer look. 

Rewiring Neural Pathways

Affirmations can contribute to the rewiring of neural pathways in your brain. By consistently repeating positive statements, you create new thought patterns that replace negative or self-limiting beliefs. Over time, this rewiring can lead to a more optimistic and empowered mindset.

Shifting Focus

Affirmations redirect your focus from what may be going wrong to what is going right. Instead of dwelling on challenges or setbacks, affirmations encourage you to concentrate on your strengths, achievements, and the positive aspects of your life.

Goal Alignment

Aligning affirmations with your goals reinforces a positive connection between your mindset and aspirations. Affirmations create a mental environment that supports your efforts, making it easier to overcome obstacles and stay focused on your goals.

Stress Reduction

And finally, positive affirmations contribute to stress reduction by promoting a calmer mental state. By incorporating statements that instill a sense of peace and tranquility, affirmations can help counteract the negative effects of stress on your mindset.

During November 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us found ourselves stressed and anxious. Mia Lind was one of them.

The then-college student needed a way to calm her mind amid the chaos and so she began walking. Although it may be something we do unconsciously all day, walking can be a fantastic way to relieve stress and center yourself. 

While on her daily walk, Lind began to take stock of her life and check in with herself.

She began posting videos of herself walking on social media alongside the hashtag #hotgirlwalk, and so the Hot Girl Walk movement was born. 

“Our generation sees walking, or at least did… as not really a valid form of exercise,” the 24-year-old explains. “For some people starting out, [those] can be really scary, and walking is a very accessible form of exercise. You can be at any fitness level to begin [and] it’s completely free.”

So, what makes this kind of walk different to any others?

Well, during your 4 mile stroll, your mind should be focused on 3 things: 

The things that you are grateful for. What your goals are. And last but not least, how hot you are, because hotness is a mindset. 

“It’s really all about building confidence and taking time for yourself,” Lind says.
