Quick! Can you name 5 things about yourself that you love?
Did you just suddenly become very uncomfortable? If so, you’re not alone. We’re going to turn that around this week.
This week, we’re going to focus on a little self-love and boosting our self-esteem.
Your goal: write 5 things you love about yourself every day.
Here’s the catch- they need to all be DIFFERENT! :-) I know you can do this.
Why are we doing this challenge? Well, when I’m working with students, I hear a lot of people constantly beating themselves up and not giving themselves enough credit! You are all AMAZING… and I want you to truly believe that (because it’s true!).
Take a little bit of time and think about the things you appreciate and love about yourself.
Maybe you love that you followed through on a fitness goal, go the extra mile at work, or work hard at being a good parent / grandparent or spouse. Maybe you’re a great host, a good dancer, have great handwriting, or remember to send thank you cards. Maybe you love that you volunteer or hold the door for people at the store.
It can be pretty much anything.
This isn’t just a temporary feel-good exercise. It only makes sense that improving your self-esteem makes you take better care of yourself, improving your health and well-being.
Studies even show that as we age, boosting your self-esteem helps keep you healthier, too! (More info is here: www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/03/140312132623.htm)
Are you in for this one? let me know!
