30 Affirmations for Turning Seventy

Turning Seventy can bring more than one feeling at the same time. This collection centers on dignity and choice in a meaningful milestone. You do not need to feel positive before using it, and you can leave out any wording that does not fit your experience.

One small next step

Consider whether now is a useful time to say how you want the birthday observed. If it is, choose a small, specific version of that action. If it is not, you might instead ask for the company you would enjoy. The point is a considered choice, not completing an affirmation routine.
