"Affirmations are short statements that are meant to give your self-esteem a positive boost. People often use mental health affirmation during times in life where they’re dealing with difficult circumstances or when they are experiencing more negative self-talk than usual." But they can be used anytime to train your mind to focus on the positive.

Affirmations can be simply positive or wuwu-- it really just depends what you're into. You can write them yourself or tap into the energy of someone who has taken the time to write them already. I searched the interwebs to find affirmations that honor not only the summer solstice, but also the spirit of summer at large. Affirmations can be spoken any time of day and are particularly effective whilst looking in the mirror.  Numerologist and Author, Sarahdawn compiled this gorgeous list of summer solstice affirmations, whilst also explaining the more wuwu aspects of summer solstice and how saying these summer affirmations can help you have the best summer ever:
