Increase Your Confidence Using Mindfulness

Being confident takes more than just practice.  The real key is developing a sense of your own self-worth and self-esteem which may have been undermined during early childhood. This can happen from internalizing criticisms and rejections directed at you from a parent or adult.   While overcoming this is not easy, your brain can begin to replace negative thinking with positive thinking once you start to practice self-compassion. 

In this self-improvement video we will practice a powerful mindfulness technique to get you build self-confidence and self-compassion.

The Key to Sustaining Positive Change

You want to feel more gratitude in life? What about motivation? What about calmness? Then try this: have an experience where you feel gratitude. Just have one. Here are some examples: to stimulate a feeling of gratitude in response: notice you are alive and breathing. Listen to your breath. See what's in front of you. Be grateful for being alive. Notice when you can move. Be grateful you can move. Notice when somebody smiles at you. Be grateful somebody smiled at you. The list goes on.

If this proves difficult for you to do, that's okay, have patience with yourself and be grateful that you are trying. It's not supposed to be easy like, well, like when we feel anxious or angry. That's not you? Well, for ...

Resistance to Taking in the Good

Eddie Grassi, Point Lobos CA August July 29, 2018 Do you remember the last time you refused something really good? While it may sound counterintuitive, people do it all the time. We resist the opportunity to take in the good. Even though it is all around us, like low hanging fruit, we may have our reasons not to accept it. The invitation to let in the good isn't always a given. For instance, you feel you do not deserve to be happy or that you are not worthy to receive its benefits. Or maybe you have doubts about happiness because of past experiences in which the idea of being happy did not work out so well.

There's also the thought that you already are happy so there's no need for more. All of these possibilities can make you fee...

Self-Compassion, the first step to Wellness

You open the door for an elderly sick person. You offer your condolences to a friend who just lost a family member to cancer. You listen to someone who is alone and in despair after the breakup of their relationship. You hold a crying child in your arms. In these examples, compassion is being given to someone in pain. Compassion is bringing a sensitivity to someone's pain with a desire to help. My children on my wedding day If you are on the giving side of compassion, you know that feeling, the feeling of warmness and caring in your heart. It's such a very good feeling. So why not treat yourself to some of it? I mean aren't you the one who has the most power and responsibility for your own wellbeing? While the experience of giving compassion may appear rewarding only to the recipient, there are rewards for the giver as well. As the giver, you actually lower stres...
