The video of a lady teacher named Phillips asking children to make positive affirmations in front of mirrors was posted by Mr. Joseph Roberts on his personal Instagram page.

An affirmation is a brief but impactful statement. They empower you to actively manage your thoughts. Affirmations can increase self-worth by elevating both your belief in your own abilities and your positive self-perception.
According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information in the US, "Self-affirmations are acts that affirm one's self-worth, often by having individuals reflect on core values, which may give individuals a broader view of the self. This in turn can allow individuals to move beyond specific threats to self-integrity or self-competence. "
"A large body of literature; however, demonstrates that a class of interventions called self-affirmations have benefits across threatening situations; affirmations can decrease stress, increase well-being, improve academic performance and make people more open to behavior change."
