FU** Your Affirmations: The Science of Self-Talk, Stress & Scripts

from 2D Fit & ISH · host 2D FIT, Dawn Thomas

Text Me Your Thoughts 📲💭Ever catch yourself saying “I’m tired” before you’ve even finished your morning coffee? Guess what — that’s an affirmation. Not the cute kind either.Words are spells. Whether you light sage or not, you’re either casting for yourself or cursing yourself. And while everybody’s busy slapping pastel affirmations on mirrors, most of us are running negative scripts with way more conviction: “I’m broke.” “This job is killing me.” “I can’t keep up.”This raw conversation breaks down how those throwaway lines become your soundtrack — spiking your stress hormone (cortisol), wrecking your sleep, even messing with your focus and body. Pair that with layoffs, social media comparison, and the weight of the world right now? No wonder everybody’s exhausted.But here’s the truth: you don’t need more empty affirmations. You need alignment. In this episode, I give you a 3-step shift: audit the negative phrases you’re chanting, flip one into something you can actually believe, and anchor it with movement so it sticks.Because if you’re not pouring into yourself, the world will pour into you. And trust me — the world’s soundtrack is heavy.So yeah… fu** your empty affirmations. But hell yes to the ones you choose on purpose, the ones that move different, the ones that actually back you up.🎧 Tap in, share it with someone who needs the real, and let’s rewrite your script today.Here is the link to the t-shirthttps://www.2dselections.com/products/fuyouremptyaffirmationt-shirt Support the showNama2DSLAY,Dawn Thomas, Owner2D FITBuy Me A Coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/2DFITISH11392 Livingston RoadFort Washington, MD 20744Studio: 301.203.POLE (7653)ERYT 500Yoga Alliance Continued Education ProviderCertified Personal Trainer Certified Prenatal/Postnatal Yoga InstructorCertified Fitness Nutrition CoachCertified Glute SpecialistCorporate Wellness GuruLife Coach for [email protected]://www.2dfit.lifehttps://www.2dselections.comInstagram: @2dfitlife and  @2dfitish
