If you struggle with self-doubt, low self-esteem, or lack of confidence in some important dimension of your self or life, this meditation will be of help. You don't need to look outside yourself for affirmation or compliments or reassurance. As comforting as the reassurance and approval of others can be, you don't need to rely on other people to remove your doubts or fears or validate your choices. We are self-existing, self-maintaining, and self-sustaining organisms. So your confidence comes from within. You can't control what happens out in the world but you can control your mental and emotional response to those changes around you. And one important response is your degree of confidence. Your self-doubt or low self-esteem is rooted in a confusion about who you are and the nature of your true self. So self-assurance is a choice. For some of you it will be more natural than others but regardless, it is always a choice. This meditation will help you make that choice.

This is a 30 minute version of the I Am Confident guided meditation. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
