Self-Trust is the capacity to rely sufficiently on your own perception, judgment and ability to respond.
Self-Trust is the capacity to rely sufficiently on your own perception, judgment and ability to respond.
It does not require believing you are always right.
In fact, robust self-trust includes confidence in your ability to discover that you were wrong and adjust.
Without self-trust, every decision requires external permission. Signals from the body are constantly overruled. Preferences must be justified before they are allowed to matter.
Self-trust grows differently.
It says:
“I can listen to myself.”
“I can gather more information.”
“I can make a choice.”
“And if new information appears, I can respond to that too.”
