affirmations for when you're healing from rejection
Rejection is painful because it leaves you feeling unworthy, lonely and dejected.
It has negatively impacted my self worth on multiple occasions, and I struggle often with moving past those emotions.
If you’re dealing with someone rejecting you romantically, being rejected from an organization or something you applied to, or have a fear of rejection, I’m hoping these affirmations remind you of how worthy you are.
Pick yourself back up after being rejected and align yourself with the power of self love and self acceptance.
