Self-esteem, our opinion of ourselves, profoundly impacts every aspect of life. Low self-esteem can stem from various experiences and often intertwines with mental health challenges. However, it’s possible to boost self-esteem through practices like self-compassion, surrounding yourself with positivity, celebrating small wins, reframing negative self-talk, and curating a positive social media environment. Building self-esteem enhances relationships and overall well-being.
