12. Self-Validation Self-Reflection

How do you validate yourself?

Frequently we look externally for validation, for someone to tell you that you are good enough, are okay and maybe even that you are loved. 

We live in a society that places high value in what others’ think and their opinion on how we should look, act, behave, etc. This places all the power externally and leaves you disempowered and misdirected, not knowing from within who you are or what you are meant to do.

Discernment differs from judgment. Judgment stems from the ego and is disconnected from your higher consciousness and awareness. Through discernment you are not judging the differences, there is no better or worse, it just is true or false for you.

 

The truth is, you are the only one who is you and can be you in this world. You are a unique irreducible soul and your essence and resonance is very powerful. You are here to serve the world by being true to yourself and shining your own inner light in life.

 

External validation may feel nice at the moment but it quickly loses its power leading you to search for more. It is time to stop the external search for validation and to embrace internal validation. 

Internal validation is when you acknowledge yourself for how good, beautiful and unique you are and the gifts you bring to the world. It is finally looking in the mirror and unconditionally loving what you see, however you are in this moment. 

Our modern society’s lack of self-esteem and self-validation leaves you a target to sell you products that genuinely do not support your worth. The more you look a certain way (which they decide) the more accepted you will be. Commercialism feeds off of this fear and insecurity leading you farther away from your inner wisdom and soul essence. 

It is time to break this unhealthy and negative cycle and reclaim your power!

 

Reflect on the prompts below for ~5-20 minutes, for the next 4 days. *Unless otherwise directed.

  • Acknowledge whatever you may be aware of at this time with curiosity. 
  • Perform this self-reflection again in about 4 weeks to assess your progress and to gather any new information to continue to support you and your greatest good.
  • Optionally, use your testing technique to determine your optimal frequency and duration to use this reflection.

 

Self-Validating self-reflection prompts:
  • How do you validate yourself? Is the validation external or internal?
  • How do you invalidate or doubt yourself?
  • When you invalidate, gaslight or deny yourself, how does it make you feel?
  • What thoughts are validating or invalidating that you tell yourself?
  • What actions or ways of being can you choose to increase self-validation? 
  • How can you uplight or bring positive energy to yourself?
  • When you acknowledge, validate and listen to yourself, how does it make you feel?
