Welcome to episode 89 of The Mindful Kind podcast about cultivating self-worth.  This episode is a follow on from episode 87 of The Mindful Kind about dealing with challenging relationships. Something I talked about was how building self-worth can help us deal with relationships and I thought I would dive a little deeper into that in this episode! First of all, you'll hear some of my own experiences with having low self-worth and why I decided I wanted to improve it. I mentioned some books which I found really insightful and helpful on this journey, including: - The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown - Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed - Quiet by Susan Cain - You can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay Here are my two top tips for improving self-worth: TIP 1 // Stop outsourcing your self-worth Look at how you might be outsourcing your self-worth and choose instead to appreciate your personality, choices, individuality etc.  TIP 2 // Use affirmations Affirmations help us train our brains to think in new and more positive ways.
