If I tell y’all this year has been the absolute ghetto!! It’s like a child’s version of a scary story come true! It’s been so tough for most of us, and I personally feel like I’ve run out of coping strategies. What’s been helping me through these past days have been words of affirmation that I repeat to myself over and over again.So I thought to myself, why not share these affirmations with other Black women?! Here are a few of the affirmations that have helped me through these challenging times…..

You deserve to rest when you’re tired

Your “no” is a complete sentence

You are beautifully and wonderfully created

You deserve all the goodness of this world

The positive energy that you’ve put out in the universe will be returned to you

You deserve love, affection and care in ALL of your relationships

Your skin is perfect, and serve its purpose of protecting you

Your Black is beautiful and deserving of basic human decency

You are deserving of attention and applause

You are enough….
