Overcoming Self-Doubt: You're More Than Your Feelings
If you've ever found yourself feeling like you're not good enough, you're not alone. Self-doubt can be an overwhelming experience, especially when those feelings seem to linger no matter what you do. But I want to remind you of something important: those feelings don’t define you.
Many of us carry beliefs about ourselves that are rooted in past experiences or learned patterns. Whether it's from childhood trauma or difficult life circumstances, it's easy to internalize the message that we're somehow "not enough." These feelings are real, but they’re not a reflection of your true worth.
So what can you do when self-doubt starts to creep in?
First, acknowledge it. It's okay to feel this way. Acknowledging those feelings is the first step to healing them. Sometimes, we resist them, thinking that ignoring or pushing them away will make them disappear, but they often become louder.
Next, consider turning inward with mindful practices like yoga or EFT Tapping. These techniques help you reconnect with your body, release tension, and remind yourself of your strength. By grounding yourself in the present, you can start to separate your true self from those limiting beliefs.
Also, try reflecting on the things you’ve already accomplished. Celebrate the small victories. It’s easy to overlook the positive when you’re trapped in a cycle of self-doubt, but recognizing even the smallest steps forward can help shift your mindset.
Remember, you are capable, you are worthy, and you are enough—just as you are. Self-doubt is part of being human, but it doesn’t have to control your life.
