Do you think positive affirmations are good?

I was kind of feeling down with a little negativity and i wrote down and said to myself some positive affirmations and instantly i felt a relief. Do you think affirmations are cheating or they really benefit your positive mental health?

1. I think they really are of benefit. Its always good to keep a positive attitude.

2. Positive affirmations are always good - not only from others but from ourselves too.

It's too easy to fall into a "negative rut", and if we tell ourselves good things it helps our self esteem and also helps us to be positive, upbeat, and more cheerful.

Keep up the Good Thoughts =)

3. Positive affirmations are great! What a lot of people don't understand is that the brain is like a computer, you put software in and if that software is corrupt you don't get your desired outcome. When your brain hears something over and over again, it gets programmed into your head and that's what you start to do or feel like. An example of this would be if a person was trying to lose weight they would get much a much better result if they were to say "I'm going to be healthy, I can do it" rather than "I'm fat and hate the way I look". Your thoughts can easily effect your entire life, so keep on saying positive affirmations, it's great for your mental health and overall well being!

Sorry if this was a bit more than what you asked for, but I hope it helps!
