We can use our physical body language to help us to feel better, like having open hands and a half smile, but what about what is going on inside your head - ie how you talk to yourself?

How we talk to ourselves is key to good mental health. If we berate ourselves or put ourselves down internally, we will have low self esteem and a low mood. If we change that negative self talk to something more positive, it will boost our self esteem, and thus our mood.

Try noticing how you think about yourself and if you notice negatives, turn them around into positives. So, we could say ‘I can’t do that’ but it could be ‘I can do that’ or ‘I could do that’.

If you drop something don’t berate yourself, just accept that it’s an accident and clear it up calmly.

Also, try to tell yourself positive things about you; it will really help your self esteem and confidence.
