Self esteem and core confidence

(Click Play Button To Hear Recording)

What causes low self esteem and lack of confidence? From the moment we are born we are exposed to many different messages and influences which shape our personality, behaviour and belief systems. Negative childhood messages and experiences throughout our developmental years can create low self esteem and a lack of confidence for many people.

We are all born confident. When we were babies we did not hesitate in making our demands known. We did not worry about what people might think of us. We did not beat ourselves up or put ourselves down.

But as time went on, we learned to doubt, and even dislike ourselves, leading us to believe that no-one else could really accept us for who we truly are.

Consequently many of us then learn to act how we think others would like us to, developing a false image whilst feeling fake and insecure. Others prefer to just hide away and avoid interaction with others as much as possible. This can often result in feeling bad inside and never really feeling happy or at peace with ourselves.

Even as adults, conflicts or negative events or situations can leave us feeling vulnerable and lacking in confidence. If these negative life events continue unresolved, our inner dialogue can often become very critical or cynical leading to unhelpful patterns of thinking and feeling.

Hypnotherapy offers a fast yet gentle method of replacing negative thoughts and beliefs by introducing more positive and supportive content directly to the subconscious mind. This results in feelings and responses which are more congruent to your true potential. Why live in fear when buried deep inside is your true confident inner self, just waiting to be released?

By using the power of your mind in a very positive way, to change the way you think, feel, act, interact and react, you increase your confidence and improve your self esteem naturally.
