Learning to cultivate self-worth pays off in the long run because your sense of self-worth impacts every area of your life. For most people, self-worth and confidence develop later in life and are influenced by life circumstances. In this article, I’m sharing 3 tips for cultivating your self-worth, which can really change your life if you implement them.
The topic of cultivating self-worth comes up regularly in my work with clients. I love seeing my clients learn to trust themselves, their decisions, and their gifts. Everything changes as they step into their sovereignty and start to embody it consciously.
There is a raw diamond in everyone that we need to refine, cultivate, and learn to take care of. When we refine our inner diamond, everything falls into place. Your soul can guide you to the right places and people. When this happens, you know your self-worth. You no longer question it or let strangers decide your value. You tap into your innate worth and restructure your life from your heart and soul.
There is nothing more beautiful to me than witnessing this transformation. People discover who they are and learn to trust themselves. This creates a new generation of leaders, trailblazers, and queens/kings.
So, how to cultivate your self-worth? First, remember that this takes time. You may remember your worth in some situations and forget it in others. Sometimes, you act from your innate worth, and other times, you let circumstances decide your value. Wherever you are, please know that your true self-worth is innate. You need to remember it.
My first tip on cultivating self-worth is to bring your attention to yourself. Now, this could be an obvious one, but there is a deeper energetic component to it. People who question their worth are energetically disconnected from their lower chakras. Energetically, this looks like no one’s home, while most of their energy body hovers above or outside the body.
Knowing your worth is nearly impossible if you’re energetically disconnected from your body. Therefore, the first step in cultivating self-worth is to bring your attention to yourself. Where the attention goes, energy flows.
As an empath, you learned to scan your parents’ emotions to feel safe. This is where the unconscious habit of energetically disconnecting from your body has started. I invite you to practice the opposite to cultivate your self-worth.
Let me give you an example.
Imagine you’re somewhere busy, like a shopping mall. Instead of unconsciously scanning your environment, focus on your own experience. How does it feel in your body? What do you want and need? What do you feel?
Stop scanning your environment. Focus on your experience of the situation. Come back to yourself.
Learn to shift your focus to yourself and your experience. How does this feel inside your body, heart, and mind?
You’re not energetically at home if you focus on how others perceive a situation rather than your experience. Instead, build a strong, energetic core to know your value. This one little tip on cultivating your self-worth can change the game.
My next tip on cultivating self-worth is to change your environment. Your self-worth indicates whether you’re on your soul’s timeline. You won’t feel your worth if you’re in the wrong situation. It’s a sign that those situations aren’t meant for you, or it’s the right situation, but the way you show up in it isn’t genuine for you.
Look at self-worth like a messenger who tells you where you don’t act on something your soul desires. Use that information to create the life you truly desire.
One of my clients struggled with low self-esteem since she was a child. We did a lot of inner emotional healing to create a firm foundation. She learned how to parent herself. Then, feeling internal support and wealth, she began to listen to her soul, which guided her to move to another country and start her spiritual business, which she did.
As a result, she met her fiancé and new friends and felt like she was in the right place for the first time in her life. She values herself because she learned to treat herself as someone who values herself. You value yourself by following your soul’s dreams, recognizing what’s good for you and what’s not, and walking away from what is not.
The last way to cultivate self-worth is to think like someone who truly values themselves. You can reparent yourself by thinking and acting like someone who knows their value.
If you know your value, would you be in this situation?
If you know your value, what would you say yes to?
What environments, relationships, and opportunities would you allow yourself to have?
Ask yourself these questions throughout the day: How would I show up today if I genuinely valued myself? What would I say yes to and what would I say no to? Then, take action, gradually, slowly, until you embody it. You close the gap between where your soul wants you to go and where you are.
How would someone who values themselves show up for themselves every day? How would a person who knows their worth treat themselves?
A bonus tip for cultivating self-worth is to write a list of situations in which you don’t act as someone who values themselves. These areas are places where your soul wants you to make changes. And then see how someone who truly values themselves would change those situations? Where could you start being that person today?
