Most of us, when we look in the mirror will make some nasty internal comment about the size of our butt or the state of our skin or the growth of our love handles. How often do you look in the mirror and say, “Hello beautiful, aren’t you amazing!”? Can you even do it? I urge you to give it a try right now – walk over to the closest mirror and say to yourself: “You are spectacular, I love you to bits!”
Finding that difficult?
Finding that difficult?
The most common problem that I come across in my coaching practice is people’s lack of ability to really love themselves. This is the basis for 90% of problems in all areas, and it all starts when we’re little.
So give your kids a head start and help them to develop a positive internal self-talk that will see them through whatever challenges happen to arise in their lives.
Teach your kids to say good things about themselves in the mirror. When they’re little you can start by doing this for them… as they pass the mirror say: “Who is that beautiful, amazing person in the mirror?” As they get older remind them to make a habit of always saying something nice (and “I love you”) to themselves in the mirror – use post-it notes, or write it in whiteboard markers on the mirror and change the positive message regularly. This is an incredible and powerful way of helping kids to maintain confidence as they go through school and life, and habits formed at a young age tend to stick.
If your internal voice is constantly dragging you down, give me a call. My coaching process is designed to clear out any negative beliefs that you have about yourself and to get you to a place where it is effortless to love yourself and express that love to yourself and the people around you.
