    Steps to Rebuilding Self-Esteem After a Major Life Setback

    Acknowledge Your Feelings

    Acceptance as the Foundation of Healing

    The first step towards rebuilding your self-esteem is to acknowledge and accept your feelings. It's natural to experience a gamut of emotions after a setback—anger, sadness, frustration, or even relief. Recognizing these emotions without judgment allows you to understand your current state and lays the groundwork for emotional healing.

    Practical Tip

    Start a journal to express your feelings. Writing can be a therapeutic way to process emotions and clarify your thoughts.
