Self Esteem Tips For Moms

Self Esteem Tips For Moms - www.expectingmami.com

February is famously known as the Love month but did you know it’s also recognized, in some circles, as National Self Esteem Month?


I can’t think of a better way to close out February than to discuss some ways to build self esteem because I can’t think of anyone harder on herself and more deserving of greater self esteem than - a Mom. ðŸ’œ


“Self-esteem comes from being able to define the world in your own terms and refusing to abide by the judgment of others.” - Oprah Winfrey 


Here are some powerful ways to boost your self esteem:

  • STOP criticising yourself
  • STOP negative & limiting self-talk/beliefs
  • STOP allowing people’s negative opinion of you to define you. You are a work in progress. You can evolve and grow better every day. 
  • STOP comparing yourself 
  • STOP waiting around for others to celebrate you. 
  • STOP downplaying genuine compliments you receive from others 
  • START recognizing and celebrating your small and big wins. 
  • START showing yourself the kindness and empathy you would show to a friend.
  • START practising gratitude
  • START moving – 20 to 30 minutes of exercise per day is a love letter to yourself. Read that again. 
  • START doing more of what brings you joy in life.
  • START spending more time with the people who bring you joy. 


“Learning to love yourself is (one of) the greatest love (s) of all.” - Whitney Houston 


What are some ways you practice building your self esteem?
