🌸 To you who always says, "I'm just..."

• No matter what you do, you think, "I'm just..."

• While raising children, you find yourself blaming yourself

• If only I had more confidence, every day would be easier...

🗣️
Hoshisora (the old me)
"I can't do anything..."

Before I knew it, I was always denying myself like this.

But it's okay.
Self-esteem is not something you are born with, but something that can be nurtured.

Today, I will introduce three simple trainings to boost self-esteem that I actually tried and felt were effective!

💡 [Conclusion] Self-esteem can be nurtured slowly in just "5 minutes a day"!

Do you think that to boost your self-esteem, you have to achieve something big?

But in fact,
through small accumulations, you can start to think, "Maybe I'm okay."

🗣️
Hoshisora (the current me)
"Self-esteem grows with 'a little bit every day'."

It doesn't have to be a big goal.
Small, gentle training that suits us is just fine.

✨ Hoshisora's experience! 3 common things about me when my self-esteem was low

💭 1. I couldn't believe it even when I was told "Thank you"

✔ Even when told "It's thanks to you," I used to think, "No, no, I'm just..."

🗣️
Hoshisora (me back then)
"I'm sure they were just saying that to be nice..."

➡ I couldn't even accept a compliment gracefully.

💭 ② Comparing myself to others on social media and feeling more and more depressed

✔ Every time I saw someone doing better at parenting, or someone who was perfect at work and housework, I felt self-loathing.

🗣️
Hoshisora (me back then)
"Why am I so useless..."

➡ The more I compared myself, the smaller I felt.

💭 ③ Continuing to blame myself for even the smallest mistakes

✔ Forgetting things, making mistakes, getting frustrated with the kids... I took it all on as "my fault."

🗣️
Hoshisora (me back then)
"Maybe I'm just not cut out to be a mother after all..."

➡ I was really bad at forgiving myself.

🌷 Hoshisora's Style! 3 Daily 5-Minute Exercises to Boost Self-Esteem

💡 ① Write down one thing you accomplished today

✔ It doesn't matter how small it is. ✔ "Folded the laundry" or "Made my child laugh" is fine!

🗣️
Hoshisora (my realization)
"At first, I only noticed what I 'couldn't do,' but by keeping at it, I realized, 'I'm actually doing pretty well!'"

✅ If you can, try jotting down a quick note in your planner before bed.

💡 ② Practice just "accepting" compliments

✔ When someone says "Thank you" or "You're amazing," don't deny it by saying "It's nothing."

🗣️
Hoshisora (my realization)
"Just by smiling and saying 'Yeah, thank you' in response to a compliment, my heart felt a little warmer."

✅ Just accept it, no need to explain yourself. That's all it takes!

💡 ③ Change social media from a place to "compare" to a place to "get tips"

✔ Graduate from comparing yourself to others and feeling down! It's okay to just take the parts where you think, 'Oh, this person is saying something good.'

🗣️
Hoshisora (Realization)
'Instead of wanting to be like someone else, I started choosing the words that resonated with me, and I feel so much more at ease!'

✅ Just by slightly changing your perspective when looking at social media, you can reduce the damage to your self-esteem.

🌈 Hoshisora's Gentle Rules for Self-Esteem

• ✅ Write down one thing you 'accomplished' each day

• ✅ It's okay to just accept compliments with a 'thank you'

• ✅ Decide that social media is a 'place to get tips'

It's okay if your self-esteem doesn't go up all at once.
Please take care of yourself slowly, little by little, every day.
