Stand Up Tall
Changing your posture can have a profound and surprising effect on your mood and self esteem. Always walk and sit with your shoulders back and back straight. Make sure you’re using an ergonomic chair and that your neck is also in a suitable position if you work sitting down.
Dress However You Want
When deciding what to wear, make sure you wear clothes that make you feel good. Try not to worry about what other people will think. As long as your clothes make you feel good, wear them!
Change Your Self-Talk
The way you talk to yourself can also have a huge impact on your self-esteem. Do you currently speak to yourself like a best friend, whether out loud or in your head? If not, it’s time to start! Try to be more mindful and make the effort to spot negative self talk and change it as soon as you can.
Smile As Much As You Can
Smiling can actually trick the brain into believing it’s in a better mood. You might not feel it right away, but it will work if you stick at it! Cosmetic dentistry helps you have the smile you’ve always wanted, so this could be something to look at if you have always been embarrassed of your smile. Our individual quirks are amazing, but if something is bothering you, you should speak to a professional to weigh up your options.
Remember The Compliments
We naturally remember all of the negative things people say to us and rarely remember the good things. Do your best to remember the compliments that people have given you over the years. Write them down, even! Look at them when you’re feeling low.
Compliment Yourself
Don’t forget, your own opinion matters more than anybody's. Compliment yourself. Look in the mirror and marvel at how gorgeous you are!
Spend Time Learning and Growing
Don’t stop learning and growing. Learn more about your hobbies and interests. Go to courses and workshops. Do it just because you want to. Show yourself what you are capable of!
Express Yourself
Channel your energy into art and creative exploits. Paint a picture, even if you don’t think it’ll be very good. Have fun! Find new ways to enhance and enrich your life.
Come To Terms With Your Past
Stop blaming yourself for the past and wishing you could change things. It is what it is. You’re in this moment now. Get help from a counselor if you need it.
Stop Trying To Be Perfect
What is perfection anyway? Aim to be your perfectly imperfect self!
