Here are 5 effective self-affirmations that can help you fight anxiety and relax. 

"I am stronger than my anxiety. I acknowledge its presence, but I refuse to let it control me. I am in charge of my thoughts and actions, and I choose to focus on calmness, peace, and the positive aspects of my life. I breathe in relaxation and exhale tension, creating a safe space within myself where I am free from fear."

"I trust in my ability to handle whatever comes my way. I am resilient, capable, and resourceful. My anxiety does not define me; it is just a small part of my experience that I can navigate through with grace and strength. I believe in my capacity to find solutions and to emerge from challenging situations with greater wisdom and peace."

"I deserve to feel calm and at ease. I release any guilt, shame, or self-judgment that fuels my anxiety. I am human, and it's okay to feel vulnerable. I choose to be kind to myself, to speak to myself with compassion, and to allow myself the time and space to heal and grow at my own pace."

"I am in control of my thoughts, and I choose thoughts that support my well-being. I am not my worries or fears; they are temporary, passing clouds in the sky of my mind. I focus on the present moment, where I am safe, supported, and grounded. I have the power to redirect my mind towards peace and positivity."

"I trust that everything is unfolding as it should. Even when I cannot see the bigger picture, I have faith in the process of life. I am patient with myself and my journey, knowing that every step forward, no matter how small, is progress. I let go of the need to control everything, and I surrender to the flow of life, trusting that I am exactly where I need to be."
