Self esteem or self worth can be understood as the extent to which we appreciate and respect ourselves. It is our personal evaluation, dependent on which our subconscious mind sets boundaries. We establish a critical inner voice that reminds us of our perceived limitations and influences our current behaviour. If our limitations are low, we develop negative inner talk such as "I am not clever enough" or "not good enough". As this inner voice develops early on in our lives, we come to accept what it tells us. If our esteem is low, we may feel that we are not good enough to do something and we justify this to ourselves and set out to prove to others and ourselves that this is so, perhaps a bit of self-sabotage. It our subconscious mind keeping us safe and preventing us from taking risks, reminding us of our perceived limitations.
Poor self image and low self esteem can affect you in different ways. Of course, we can be supremely confident in one area, perhaps intellectually, but find it difficult to socialise or relate to others. You may feel better staying in the background (in both situations). It can hold you back from achieving within your sphere of work; you may feel other people are far more capable than you, far more qualified. The negative inner voice reminds us to remain within our boundaries and we lack confidence to do those things we want to do.
So self esteem plays a big part in our self confidence. Self esteem is your considered assessment of yourself, self confidence is your belief in what you can achieve, what goals you can aspire to. If you have high self esteem you have a respect for yourself and an acceptance of who you are and confidence in your abilities.
Hypnotherapy can help you make the necessary changes in your life, it can help you to stop that negative inner chatter and feel much more positive about yourself. It can help lift your self esteem and boost your self confidence. You will have confidence to make plans for your future. Learning to value yourself and accept yourself so that you can move forward and change those things that need to be changed in order to achieve your full potential.
