RAISING ONE'S SELF-ESTEEM IS A PROCESS AND MAY TAKE SOME TIME First, you will need to address the reason why you have low-self esteem.
Did it come from your childhood? Are you in an abusive relationship? What kind of people do you have in your inner circle? Do you suffer from depression? These are some of the questions you will need to answer to get to the root of the problem.
Follow these suggestions below to help raise your self-esteem.
WRITE DOWN ALL OF YOUR POSITIVE QUALITIES AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS Secondly, make a journal.
List all of your accomplishments.
Think about and write down all of the good things in your life on daily basis.
For example, be grateful for waking up in the morning.
Be thankful for having a roof over your head and the food inside your belly.
ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE Give gratitude for all of your blessings, which is a great way of raising your self-esteem.
Review this list throughout the day or as much as you can.
If you cannot think of any accomplishments, start by being kind towards other people, like saying hello to your neighbors.
How we treat others is a reflection of how we feel about ourselves.
Therefore, think of something nice to say to someone.
Try to see good in other people.
HELP OUT OTHERS IN NEED Volunteer some of your time to a non-profit group or charity.
This will give you a sense of purpose.
However, do this from the heart and not to please your ego.
Help an elderly person by sweeping their sidewalk or by carrying their groceries.
Just help someone in need.
Think about how you feel afterwards.
Once you have done a good deed, add this to your list.
This is also very affective in raising your self-esteem.
APPRECIATING ONE'S SELF AND AFFIRMING YOUR WELL BEING Look into the mirror and see the beauty in you.
Take the time to appreciate and love yourself.
See how God made you a beautiful being, because our creator does not make junk.
Create affirmations while you are looking in the mirror.
For example, I love myself or I am beautiful.
Affirmations will train your mind into feeling this way, if they are said daily and repeatedly.
Do this every morning upon waking up for at least 15 minutes or more and every evening.
LET GO OF YOUR RESISTANCE What you resist will continue or still exist.
You must learn how to be receptive.
Learn how to receive a praise or compliment from others.
Just surrender to the Divine.
Think of something that is positive and make you happy, while saying your affirmations.
However, if you are having difficulties in aligning your vibration with your affirmations, write them down.
Where did these difficulties come from? Mediate and answer listen for answers within.
FINDING SOLUTIONS AND HEALING Think of solutions on how to overcome them.
Get in contact with the inner-child.
If necessary, let the inner- child cry or get angry to help you heal, as long as you do not hurt yourself or anyone else.
Dialogue with the person who made you felt this way.
Express your feelings that you could not do when you were a child.
Release them out of your system by take a deep breathe out and learn how to comfort yourself.
Give yourself a big hug and connect to the divine.
Surround yourself with people who are positive and supportive of you.
Your friends should be uplifting and encouraging.
If they are not, you need to change your inner-circle.
This includes your mate as well.
Some people will zap your energy.
Many will berate you so they can feel good.
Listen to your vibes or instincts about people.
Mostly importantly, learn to love yourself.
