With winter just around the corner, you will probably be, quite literally, wrapped up in all things Christmas and too busy to turn your attention to yourself and how best to make the impending new year as wonderful as you want it to be.

However, once the turkey’s polished off, the Christmas tree is back in the loft, and there’s only one layer of chocolate selection boxes left in the back of the cupboard, how would you like to feel renewed in confidence to tackle all the highs and lows that the new year will undoubtedly bring?

 

Choose Only One Achievable New Year’s Resolution

 

Instead of dedicating the entire front page of your new, yearly diary to a detailed list of everything you think you would like to change about yourself and your current life and lifestyle, instead choose just one resolution that is broad enough to encompass several different elements yet is definitely achievable.

Perhaps you would be interested in taking a martial arts class or two to physically increase your confidence in handling yourself should you fall into a decidedly tricky situation, or else you may prefer more of an emotional confidence booster and might like to try meditating for five minutes every day for a year?

 

Change the Way You Accept Compliments

 

It is, most probably, a common sensibility to immediately activate the self-deprecation switch when confronted with the unnerving situation of being paid a compliment.

Your natural reaction might be to immediately, for example, disregard a compliment surrounding your hair by lying and saying it’s only because you finally washed it, or rebuke a compliment on your new dress by replying that it was only cheap and probably won’t last in the washing machine.

Instead, accept compliments gracefully and warmly, with a smile thrown in for good measure, and feel, accept, and soak in the happy and joyful emotions you feel as a result.

 

Treat Yourself to Professional Teeth Whitening

 

Treating yourself to a professional teeth whitening course is one of the best ways to instantly improve your confidence, as when you smile, this encourages others to smile back too because, like yawning, smiling is undoubtedly contagious.

Other amazing advantages of having your teeth professionally whitened include the improvement of how others view your overall hygiene levels, not to mention a substantial boost in self-esteem and pride in your appearance.

Contrary to popular belief, the decision to treat yourself to a professional teeth whitening course from a professional and respected dentist Enfield is nowhere near as expensive as you may think. Teeth whitening is relatively affordable, entirely painless, and one hundred percent safe.

 

Consider Therapy

 

Thankfully, in 2021 and beyond, therapy is now considered to be a mind-cleansing and beneficial part of self-care rituals and is now far less of a taboo topic than in the not so distant past. Deciding to have therapy is an incredible tool in boosting your confidence levels.
