"I am growing every single day." 👏🏼👏🏼 Research shows that affirmations can activate the brain's reward centers, increasing self-worth and motivation. A Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience study* found that self-affirmation activates the ventromedial prefrontal cortex. This area of the brain is linked to how we view ourselves and what we value. When this part of the brain is activated, people can focus on positive qualities, boosting their self-worth and resilience. Thank you to @thecharlesclark for joining us at BRAVE Summit 2025, sharing your story and reminding us that we are enough just as we are. *Self-Affirmation Activates Brain Systems Associated with Self-Related Processing and Reward and Is Reinforced by Future Orientation | Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience | Oxford Academic, academic.oup.com/scan/article/11/4/621/2375054.
