How to restore your self esteem
Self esteem is defined as confidence in your own worth or abilities. After going through a divorce one of the things that takes the biggest hit is your self-esteem.
Now I’m not sure how many people would agree with this truth because in reality a lot of us put on outer facades and different appearances to let society know that we are “OK”.
Your divorce, separation or breakup may have left you with negative feelings about your self-worth, but you have so much more value than your marriage and divorce may have led you to believe. It's time to learn to appreciate yourself again.
But what happens when you feel like you can’t love yourself anymore? What happens when you feel like your confidence has been torn into shreds ?
Here are three simple steps to help you to recover your self esteem.
- Identify where your self esteem is lacking by asking yourself; what do I believe about me? What do I think about who I am? What do my thoughts tell me about myself?
- Create a plan to help you strengthen the areas you need to increase your self esteem in (some examples of things you can do are: shift your thinking, say affirmations, focus on gratitude, be kind to your body and yourself etc.)
- Get support.
