𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐦...

‘Self-confidence’
‘Self-worth’
‘Self-acceptance’
‘Self-respect’

These are all words which reflect the opinion we have of ourselves. Having ‘𝒽ℯ𝒶𝓁𝓉𝒽𝓎’ self-esteem can influence our motivation, mental well-being & day to day life.

Self-esteem can impact our relationships, decision making and emotional health. Low self-esteem can manifest in many ways;

- believing others are better then you
- focusing on our weaknesses
- intense fear of failure
- putting others needs before our own
- frequent experience of fear and worry

This is to just name a few. But, we can take steps to build our self-esteem…

• Using 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤
• Practicing 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧
• Recognising what your 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 at
• Building a 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 support network
• Trying a talking 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐲

We can help others with this too, by celebrating our loved ones successes, attempts and times when they have not been successful. Encouraging them to be more active and to be kind to themselves.

Self-esteem often impacts how I dress and how I feel going out. What's your relationship with self-esteem?
