Self-validation involves taking the six levels of validation and turning them inward, towards ourselves. Self-validation allows us the opportunity to depend on ourselves in times of emotional dysregulation, especially when our environment is not able to validate us properly or consistently.
Our video on Self-Validation goes into detail about how the six levels of self-validation work to empower individuals to acknowledge and accept their emotions without judgment. Through practical tips and real-life examples, we illustrate how self-validation can transform your relationship with yourself and others.
Whether you're struggling with self-doubt, navigating difficult relationships, or simply seeking greater self-awareness, this video equips you with the tools to embrace self-validation as a cornerstone of your emotional growth journey.
