Faux feeling A judgement of myself
Worthy
Not a feeling: a judgement of yourself.
Also known as deserving
‘I think I have value and deserve good things.’
Why it’s not a feeling
Worthy rates your value and finds it high. It is kinder than its opposite but works the same way, weighing what you deserve instead of naming what is alive in you. What sits underneath is a feeling of its own, perhaps contentment or a deep peace.
Feelings underneath
Needs
When these needs are met
Saying it as a feeling
‘I feel worthy.’
When I said no to the extra project and didn’t apologise for it, I felt peaceful and confident, because I need self-worth.
