I understand because I’ve been there
A lack of self-identity can significantly impact our mental health causing anxiety and insecurity. People have low self-esteem and a lack of confidence may have an unbalanced view of themselves and feel doubtful of their abilities or what they have to offer. This was me for most of my life, causing a negative impact on relationships, and the world around me. I would forget about my own needs, likes, and dislikes, and people please just to feel a sense of belonging. This could often lead to depend too much on people for happiness and approval. My inner critic was saying 'I am not good enough', or 'I can't do this'. This was always leaving me with a feeling of self doubt. Not having a strong sense of self led me to worry and making decisions that were not right for me.

​​​
Exploring new Values that can drive our behaviours and align with who you are.

Celebrate successes and keeping a journal of:

Compliments received

Spending time with people that feel positive to be around

Practicing being assertive, which may mean saying “yes” or “no” to others to set boundaries

I understand myself now, with a strong sense of self. I like who I am, I know what I want, and I trust my own judgement. This has lead to me to be the best version of myself.​​​

The dandelion can be associated with hopes and dreams that come true.
When children blow on dandelion fluff, they close their eyes and make a wish. When they see a dandelion head, they are reminded of all the things they have and will wish for. Some of us are lucky enough to have our dreams come true.
