Make Self-Esteem Your Practice Compass
- Practice should grow your self-esteem rather than just avoid pain.
- Eva Beronius defines self-esteem as coping competence and feeling worthy of happiness, which must guide what you practice in relationships.
Check If Staying Builds Or Breaks Self Trust
- Evaluate whether staying in a relationship is helping you cope and feel worthy or whether it erodes your self-trust.
- If staying makes you spiral into doubt and loss of self-worth, change the situation or set boundaries to protect your esteem.
