Looking to start the week on the right foot with positive Monday affirmations? Whether your style is the traditional dive right-in approach to Mondays or you prefer to gently ease into the new week, choose from these 140 powerful Monday affirmations to design a week that works for you!

Do you wake up on Monday morning ready to bulldoze your way into the start of the week, eager for the fresh start and limitless potential of a new day?

Or do you find you’re already stressing about your to-do list and dreading the entire week ahead by the time Sunday night rolls around?

I’ve come to love the new beginnings of a Monday morning, however, I’m certainly not a fireball of energy on Mondays.

You won’t find me doing a tough workout on a Monday or even writing a blog post that requires a lot of thought and mental energy.

Similar to my daily early morning ritual that provides me the space to gently wake up, I prefer to calmly ease into the rest of the week on Monday by taking it a little easy.

Giving myself what I need on a Monday instead of “should-ing” myself into a dive right-in expectation that doesn’t feel right to me, is what helps me start the week on a positive note.

Eventually, my energy and productivity catch up!

So whether you tend to pop right out of bed come Monday morning raring to go OR prefer to take your time gearing up for a great week ahead, there is no right or wrong way to go into the new week.

Think about how you want Monday to feel and give yourself permission to design your day, and your entire week, in a way that works for you.

In this post, I share 140 positive Monday affirmations that will help you start the week on the right foot, with a positive mindset that sets the tone for the week you want to have!

But first, what are positive affirmations?

Positive affirmations are a powerful tool you can use to foster a positive attitude and positive outcomes in your life.

Think of them like motivational quotes or brief positive statements that you frequently repeat to yourself to help bring forth positive changes, thoughts, and attitudes from within yourself.

Keep in mind that it’s important to come up with affirmation statements that resonate with you. Simply repeating a statement that you don’t believe in will feel silly and inauthentic and won’t have the effect you’re seeking.

Daily affirmations should speak to your reality and create motivation for you to rely on your innate qualities and abilities to create positivity in your life. They should also be short, simple, and to the point and are most effective when comprised of only positive words and spoken in the present tense.

When used appropriately, these powerful statements encourage you to think positively about the important aspects of your life and will have a positive impact on your self-confidence, motivation, self-worth, body positivity, self-love, or any other positive things you want to encourage from within.

Why use Monday affirmations?

It’s so important to take charge of your thoughts, beliefs, and mindset if you want to see positive shifts in this beautiful life of yours.

Further, with the start of a new week comes a new opportunity for a fresh start, or clean slate, in which you can set the tone for the kind of week you will have by controlling the energy and momentum you bring to it at the start.

Thus, using Monday affirmations to reinforce what you want to get out of the week can help bring forth the positive energy and positive outcomes you want to see.

Monday affirmations can also foster more productive thoughts that improve your mindset and change the way you approach daily challenges and stressful situations during the week.

By helping to combat negative thought patterns and bolstering your feelings of self-confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth, affirmations can ultimately motivate you to move forward in the right direction to accomplish great things.

Starting the week on a positive note with Monday affirmations is a great way to take charge of your week and your life!

How to practice Monday affirmations:

Once you choose a few Monday affirmations that feel good to you, you can use them in different ways, depending on your personality and comfort level.

It’s a good idea to tailor your Monday affirmations practice to best suit your energy level and mood on that particular day. This goes back to trusting the intention you have for Mondays and permitting yourself to design your day how it best suits your vibe.

For example, if your intention is to go slowly and gently into your week, you might want to read the Monday affirmations silently to yourself, close your eyes, and really absorb the meaning behind the words or use them in meditation.

If you’re feeling introspective on Mondays, you could try writing a few Monday affirmations in your journal or even use them as journal prompts to think a little deeper about how they make you feel and what about them resonates with you.

Or if you are one to wake up energized on Monday morning, ready to go full steam ahead, then you may like to loudly speak the Monday affirmations. For added motivation, do this while looking at yourself in the mirror if this feels good to you or during a morning workout!

Below are some additional suggestions for how to practice Monday affirmations:

• Write them down in a journal as part of your morning routine or ritual
• Say them out loud to yourself as you get dressed or take a shower
• Repeat them during a morning meditation
• Pair them with a vision board that you prominently display in your home
• Write them on a sticky note and put them on your bathroom mirror to recite when you wake up
• Save them as a reminder in your phone and set a timer to go off each morning.
• Subscribe to an app like Gratitude, through which you can set affirmations to pop up on your phone each morning and you can also save the ones you like
• Use affirmation cards and leave them on your nightstand so you will see them first thing in the morning
• Record yourself reciting your affirmations and listen to them each morning on your way to work
