Questions
How do I use self-compassion affirmations?
Choose one or two sentences that feel true to you. Say them out loud in the morning and keep them in sight during the day. What matters isn't how many, it's coming back to them regularly.
Do affirmations really work?
An affirmation isn't magic; it's a way of choosing where your attention goes. Sentences you can believe, in the present tense, work best. Paired with a small step, they grow stronger.
How many times a day should I repeat them?
Once in the morning, slowly and out loud, is enough. Seeing it on your lock screen during the day counts as a repetition too.
Does Somedaily cost money?
No, the free version never expires. The affirmation of the day, the morning ritual and one board are always open; for more topics and sounds there's Premium inside the app.
