55 Positive Sunday Affirmations to Prepare for A Productive Week

Sunday affirmations are a powerful tool to help prepare you for the week ahead and set you up for a positive Monday.

To some, Sunday is just another day of the week. However, to many, Sunday signifies the end of the week; a day of rest and rejuvenation; and the start of a new cycle as we start preparing for the work week to begin again.

This is why using positive affirmations can be particularly beneficial on a Sunday.

They can help give you a boost, put your mindset in a positive place, and ensure you’re ready to face the new week with confidence.

We can approach using Sunday affirmations in a few ways:

  • Positive affirmations to give you a boost and help ward off the dread so many of us feel before going back to work or school on a Monday.
  • Self-care Sunday affirmations that encourage you to take this opportunity to rest, recuperate, and rejuvenate.
  • Sunday evening affirmations, which help prepare you for a positive, productive week before you go to bed.

I’ll be including them all in this post.

What do Sunday affirmations mean?

Positive affirmations are positive, self-affirming statements that we can repeat out loud, in our heads, or in a journal in order to improve self-esteem, confidence, and our mindset in general.

They work by reprogramming our thought processes.

When we replace negative self-talk with positive, present-tense affirmations, our thought patterns start to drift to a more positive place over a negative one.

When used as a tool to combat negative self-talk, affirmations are fantastic.

Sunday affirmations are simply affirmations that we repeat on Sundays as a tool to help prepare us for the week ahead.

For many, Sundays are the day they dedicate to their faith or spirituality, which is another reason using this day for affirmations can be really powerful.

For others, Sunday is a day to reset before a new cycle.

When I was in school, I used to hate Sundays. I hated school and therefore knew that going back there was only a day away.

I used to feel sick and upset in the evening and over-think the next day.

I now know that I wasn’t the only one!

A reported 90% of millennials and Gen Z get the Sunday Scaries – aka the Sunday Blues.

Now, Sundays are one of my favourite days that I use for self-care and affirmations are a huge part of that.

Sunday Evening Affirmations

Sunday evening might be the best time for affirmations.

This tends to be the time where you start worrying about Monday and negative self-talk might catch up with you, even if you’ve felt fine all day.

How to use Sunday affirmations

In order to get the most out of these Sunday affirmations, my best tips are:

  • Only pick 1 – 3 affirmations so that you don’t get overwhelmed and you can fully focus on just a couple
  • Pick affirmations that resonate with you and how you’re feeling
  • Write down your affirmations in your journal, as well as saying them out loud or in your head (or both)
  • Feel the affirmation as you repeat it
  • Give yourself time – be compassionate and patient with yourself
  • Use affirmations as a tool to combat negative self-talk
  • Stay consistent

The best way to stay consistent with affirmations that I’ve found it is by using affirmation cards.

They help inspire you, as well as remember which affirmation you’re focusing on, which helps transform your confidence and discover self-worth.
