Nurturing Fear and Self-Doubt

2/5/2022

 
Nurturing fear and self-doubt is a way one person can maintain control or influence over another person.
We see this dynamic in many abusive relationships.

Part of being covertly victimized is not being aware that it is even happening. This lack of awareness occurs when a person does not know that what they are experiencing is abuse or doubting ones own perception. 

Not being aware and having self-doubt contributes to a mentally weak state. This is what makes children so vulnerable to victimization. They don't have much (or any)  previous experience and still rely on adults for most of their learning. 

When fear and self-doubt decrease, a general feeling of trusting yourself arrives to that emotional space...Being in the moment and trusting your perception of things... Not being conflicted and confused... Believing in Yourself.

Pay attention to how you are when in a state of self-doubt vs self-confidence. 
Nurture the good things in yourself and become skilled at identifying what others are nurturing in you.
