Why You Should Develop a Personal Mantra
Amy Morin, LCSW
Verywell Mind Editor-in-Chief
Could repeating a phrase to yourself over and over again actually improve your mental health? As simple as it sounds, there's a good chance that developing a personal mantra could make a positive difference in your life.
A simple mantra could help you stay on track with your goals, drown out negative thoughts, help you resist temptations or even help you perform better.

I share some examples of how people use them too—from clients in my therapy office to professional athletes.
