Value Yourself… By Dr. Carol Look

Imagine how much abundance you
would attract into your life if you started to
Value Yourself…

Most of us undervalue ourselves – we either learned this behavior, we have an incorrect image of our self-worth, or we think it’s inappropriate to see ourselves as having or offering value.  The exact opposite is true – it’s absolutely appropriate to Value Yourself, and what’s more, it will help you bring more valuable experiences into your life.

The truth is, if we don’t value ourselves – who we are at our core, what we offer as a friend, family member or employee - others won’t value us either.  We teach other people how to treat us – so it’s a good idea to Value Yourself starting now!

Another truth is that we are all deeply valuable,  yes, all of us, (even those people you don’t like), and we all offer value in this world in unique ways.  So if you are stuck on that beginning point that you aren’t valuable, you may need to do a lot of tapping on this!!

Typical “yes, buts” that I hear from people with chronically low self-esteem when I ask them to value themselves are: “But isn’t that being arrogant?” or “Isn’t it selfish to value yourself?” or “Doesn’t that put other people down?” Valuing yourself is good for all of us, it isn’t arrogant or selfish, and it allows other people to see a solid model of healthy self-esteem. Again, if you have any of these objections to valuing yourself, I invite you to do some tapping to clear these “yes, buts” from your energy system.

Start to Value Yourself right now by making a list of what you think is valuable about you… for example…

1. I’m a loyal friend

2. I get my work done on time

3. I contribute a lot to my family

4. I’m a good model for my kids

5. I’m learning how to take better care of myself

6. I have a good sense of humor etc.

Put anything on this list you are able to think of – it’s not bragging, it’s taking a realistic assessment of who you are, how you have grown, and what you offer in your personal and professional relationships.  Some people will find this exercise emotionally painful if they truly can’t find something to value – if this is the case for you, then I recommend you ask a close friend or family member what they value about you – it will kickstart this process… which is, well, invaluable.

Again, some of you need to examine why this makes you uncomfortable. Why wouldn’t you Value Yourself?  Do you think it’s a waste of time, or not worth the effort? Or maybe you think it’s just awkward.  I have been deeply valued by many people in my life, and I value everyone I come into contact with, even if I don’t like them!  What I know from my decades of professional experience and my personal journey through life is that taking the time and energy to Value Yourself and others will be life-changing in all the right ways.

And what does this have to do with attracting abundance?  When you communicate to the Universe that you are valuable, then the Universe can match that vibration and “deliver” what you want on any level – spiritually, emotionally, physically, financially – into your life.

If you truly want to attract abundance into your life, you need to start to Value Yourself now.  In addition to making the simple list I recommended earlier, here are a few more ways to Value Yourself:

1. Notice what you do for others every day that’s helpful.

2. Make sure you practice better self-care every day – through exercise, energy work, eating well or getting a good night’s sleep. People who value themselves take care of themselves.

3. Follow through – when you say you’re going to do something for yourself or a friend, follow through, it raises your self-esteem.

4. Take time to check in with your needs, feelings, and desires every day.  People who value themselves know what their “interior world” feels like.

5. Write your daily gratitude list – it’s another way to find value in your life, even if you’re having difficulty finding value in yourself.

It’s pretty simple – my invitation in this newsletter is for you to Value Yourself so that others and the Universe start to value you too!

Remember that our thoughts are real
and carry energy…

Our vibration matters!

The most important lesson I have learned from Law of Attraction teachers is that the Universe hears our vibration not our words.  I also know that we will receive more of what we are “broadcasting” to the Universe on an energetic basis.

If you start raising your vibration
by feeling optimistic, joyful, appreciative
and grateful, abundance is sure to follow.

When you Value Yourself, you are offering a clear signal to the Universe that you are ready to receive the abundance you have been asking for because you are worth it.   When you Value Yourself, you are providing the energetic vibration that will attract more value into your life.  When the Universe receives this clear signal or message from you – (no energetic interference from your negative emotions) then the Law of Attraction starts to work in your favor. So give the Universe the right message – you ARE valuable.

It’s your choice… Value Yourself
and enjoy the abundance that starts
to flow into your life!

When you change your vibration,
you will change your life.
