It’s not possible to feel good about yourself all the time, even if you’re familiar with subconscious mind healing techniques. But a consistently low self-esteem can be damaging for your mental health. It can make you susceptible to depression, anxiety, self-sabotaging behaviors, toxic relationships, and low self-worth.

Here are a few simple ways to increase your self-esteem:

1. Treat Yourself with Love

Many people find it easy to be kind to others and difficult to be kind to themselves. Constantly criticizing yourself and engaging in negative self-talk will diminish your self-esteem.

Instead, try treating yourself with love and kindness. Eat good food, get plenty of exercise and rest, and take care of your physical and mental health. Make yourself a priority and watch your self-esteem rise.

2. Be Your Own Cheerleader

Some people find that their self-esteem is tied to external validation. They only feel good about themselves when others praise them. While it’s only human to want other people to appreciate you, depending on it too much can be harmful.

Try being your own cheerleader. Celebrate your accomplishments, praise yourself for the things you do well, and give yourself small positive affirmations throughout the day.

3. Get Professional Help

A lot of us carry around painful memories, experiences, and trauma from our past. Leaving them unresolved ensures that they continue to stay with us. Get the help you need to heal yourself and recover, so that you can live a happier life.

There is a range of treatments that you can use. For example:

• A couples therapist can help you build a stronger relationship.
• A hypnotist can help you learn how to express feelings or how to treat subconscious anxiety.
• A counselor can help you navigate a challenging situation.

4. Learn a New Skill

Think of a few things that you’ve always wanted to be good at, then make a list and start learning. Spending even one hour every day learning a new skill will boost your sense of accomplishment.

Practicing new skills is also great for your brain; while you increase your self-esteem, you’ll also be improving your brain health.
