Our hormones are constantly responding to everything we do. That includes what we eat or drink as well as our thoughts and emotions.
This is why hormones like oxytocin are released when we cry. It’s also why cortisol is released when we simply think about something stressful or traumatic.
Given how strongly the mind and body are connected, you might find it helpful to use affirmations for hormonal balance.
Below are a few to help you get started.

WHAT IS GOOD TO TAKE FOR HORMONAL BALANCE?
As simplistic as it sounds, balancing your hormones starts with your food choices. More specifically, you want to focus on nutrient-dense and anti-inflammatory foods.
In addition, you also want to pay attention to your macronutrient balance.
Now, all of this outlined in this hormone balance diet plan. Please use that guide to dive into each food category (cooking oils, proteins, flours and more) and learn what to look for when shopping.
Once your diet is on point, you can add herbs and supplements. These will help you cover nutritional gaps that could be contributing to hormonal imbalance.

FAQs ABOUT AFFIRMATIONS FOR HORMONAL IMBALANCE
Is meditation good for hormonal imbalance?
Meditation can help with hormonal imbalance because it’s been shown to reduce elevated stress and cortisol levels. Since high cortisol can negatively impact blood sugar, estrogen and progesterone, using meditation as a cortisol-reducing tool can be beneficial for hormones.
CONCLUSION
The mind-body connection isn’t just a concept or philosophy.
It’s very real and ignoring it can sometimes slow down our ability to experience true health and wellness.
I hope you find some inspiration from the affirmations above.
Hey there! Curious about supplements for women’s hormones? Here are my top picks (in-depth reviews for each is available here):
- Hormone Harmony: Formulated for all around-hormone support, this supplement combines cortisol/stress lowering herbs (aka adaptogens), with herbs for nervous system support, insulin sensitivity and more. it’s no wonder it has 12,000+ (mostly glowing) reviews! Get $10 OFF with code HAPPYYOU076057.
- Live It Up (formerly Enso) Supergreens: after getting a free sample from the company, I was seriously impressed by this greens powder. I love it because it has lots of mineral-rich and nutrient-dense greens and nothing else. The minty flavor is 100% from mint, no synthetic flavors (or other additives). I also love that it has no adaptogens (which my body is not a fan of lately). Think of this as your green, multivitamin/multimineral.
- Moon Balance: this powder combines some of the best herbs for menstrual support, such as hibiscus, maca and shatavari. If your cycle is off balance and you struggle with things like PMS, period pain and other menstrual imbalances, this is one to check out.
- Maca Root Powder: in the single herb category, maca is worth paying attention to. It has traditionally been used in Peru for hormone support (in men and women). Research and anecdotal reports indicate that this root vegetable helps with libido, anxiety, hot flashes, menstrual health and more.
