NOF osteoporosis affirmations
•I have osteoporosis, but I know that it’s beatable and treatable.
•I plan to live a long and healthy life. Having strong bones is important in achieving this goal, and I am willing and able to do what it takes.
•I stay focused on my strengths. Knowing that I have strengths motivates me to do my best every day for my health and well being.
•I think positive thoughts about my physical and emotional health.
•I seek out and choose to have friendships with people who support me. Having strong, positive relationships keeps me healthy.
•I exercise regularly. My bones and entire body appreciate my effort. I become stronger and more flexible each day.
•I forgive myself for past unhealthy behaviors and focus on the things I can do now.
•I know that what I do today brings strength to my body and soul.
•I reward myself in healthy ways. One of my favorite activities is to take walks by myself or with a friend several times a week. I can focus on the beauty of nature or on pleasurable conversation while I do something positive for myself.
