María Laura is a companion in Biodescoding. With her own workshop, Amor Propio de ella, she offers her clients tools that allow them to become aware of how they are perceiving and meaning the different experiences. Thus, with a methodology that she develops both in an individual session and in a group workshop, she accompanies them to rewrite their lives with beliefs that empower them. “When I ask my consultant: what is a different Christmas?” She begins to describe a scene in which he is never the protagonist. Within the description are past experiences, culture, and value-laden thoughts. In other words, his self-concept is the fundamental protagonist of his actions, ”María Laura begins by clarifying.
– What is the self-concept you are referring to?
The self-concept is that way of seeing and describing ourselves and the world around us. Therefore, it goes hand in hand with self-esteem, because if I see myself as someone valuable, I will estimate myself and if I see myself as someone incorrect, I will not estimate myself.
– How is this self-esteem cemented and built?
The big lie about self-esteem is that you have to do things to achieve it, achieve goals, fulfill dreams. Self-esteem comes from the growth process, and when you grow and contribute, self-esteem skyrockets.
– What is the basis on which self-esteem grows?
Being humble and sincere is the basis of self-esteem, because that reflects a thought system that does not need the approval of others. I don’t need to lie, exaggerate, I don’t need to manipulate anything. When I show myself as I am, my self-esteem is at its best. When we have to force, pretend what we are not, it is because we are devalued, therefore my self-esteem goes down. The paradoxical thing is that the more we pretend to increase self-esteem, we sink more and more into low self-esteem.
– So self-esteem is a state of mind and a product of daily work?
Yes, absolutely, and therefore it involves working on yourself. There is nothing magical that raises self-esteem, it is an inside job and it is also a daily choice. It is not that high self-esteem is reached and I have it for a lifetime, self-esteem is a constant decision. The good thing is that we have the possibility to decide.
– In the self-love workshop, do they work on this topic especially?
In my Self Love workshop, precisely, I accompany the client to update their thought system, so that they live in line with their desires. Let’s remember that our thoughts determine emotions, emotions do it with actions and the whole set shapes my way of being. In short, work on your thought system, and what you have left to live will be a great party.
