How to Shed an Outdated Self-Image

Do you ever feel like you’d love to reinvent yourself? This week’s video is all about how to shed an outgrown identity, or a false self-identity, so that you can transform and grow. I created a whole program around this called Reinvent Your Self-Image that’s available at DailyOM, so if you are interested, check it out!

The premise behind the program is that, as we go through life, we shift and change. The thing is, we often carry around with us this outdated notion of who we are, when we aren’t really that person any more. That outdated self-image can hold us back and create unwanted limitations.

The good news is, there are 3 easy steps you can take to work on shedding an identity that no longer serves you. Ready? Let’s go!

1. Listen to the Yearnings of Your Soul

What are you yearning for, and what does your soul want? If you’re listening to your soul, you probably won’t get answers like your spirit wants more success or money. This is more about things you love to do, like riding horses, swimming in the ocean, traveling, and learning something new. Give yourself plenty of time to work on this, and then start incorporating these things into your life – and really stick to it!

2. Own the Fact that You have Changed

Get comfortable with saying, believing, thinking and feeling that the old you is not you anymore. Own the fact that you are done with the past! Most importantly, don’t let other people in your life tell you who you are based on who you were back then. Ground into the authentic you. You can love the old self, and also love who you are now.

3. Do Things Differently

Create a new routine, listen to new music, give yourself a total makeover from the outside in and inside out to reflect the new you. I love clothes and the power that style can give us. Look at your closet and get rid of stuff that doesn’t serve you anymore. And as for your routine, why are you doing things the same way? Create new ways of doing things, acknowledging that the new you does do new things, and that will absolutely feed your spirit.

Speaking of that, follow the urge of your soul and spirit, and you will not go wrong. Often what the soul wants isn’t necessarily what everybody says you are supposed to want – and that is liberating!! Honor it!

Your spirit will bring you more happiness, alignment, and balance than you can imagine. It may be non-traditional, but it will be truly YOU.

And you are beautiful.
