Journaling and practising your favourite hobby can alleviate feelings of insecurity and self-doubt.
Bhagyashree opened up about her struggle with self-doubt and insecurities.
Bhagyashree made her Bollywood debut opposite Salman Khan with the 1989 blockbuster Maine Pyar Kiya. After leaving a mark in the Hindi film industry, she stepped away from the limelight. Bhagyashree does keep fans hooked with her social media entries. From sharing personal anecdotes to dropping delicious food videos and offering health insights, she has seamlessly slipped into the shoes of a lifestyle expert. In a recent interview, Bhagyashree opened up about struggling with insecurities and how there came a moment in her life when she was gripped by self-doubt.
In a conversation with Hauterrfly, Bhagyashree revealed that she underwent a difficult phase where she questioned herself. “Main khud apne aapko dekhti thi aayne mein aur lagta tha ki main kya baat karu, kyuki mera poora dinn ghar sambhaalne mein, bachchon mein jaata tha toh uske alawa nahi thi koi samay (I looked at myself in the mirror and thought, what can I talk about? My entire day was spent doing household chores and taking care of the kids, leaving no time for anything else),” she said.
Bhagyashree admitted that she felt her life had become stagnant. She continued, “Aapko lagta hai ki jaise kursi, table, takiya hai, waise aap pade ho… aur aapki zindagi mein aur kuch nahi hai (You feel like you just exist, like a chair, a table, or a pillow… and there’s nothing more to your life).”
Like Bhagyashree, if you are also feeling disconnected from life, then here are some steps to overcome the feeling.
Understand your emotions: Sit with yourself and think about why you’re feeling self-conscious. Self-reflection is the primary step to understanding your insecurities.
Journaling: Make a journal and write out your emotions on paper. Penning your thoughts can help you get better clarity and act as a form of catharsis.
Hobbies: Indulge in any hobby of your choice. When you are engaged in something you like, it keeps negative feelings at bay by bringing a sense of fulfilment.
Positive mindset: Even in troublesome situations, have a positive outlook on life. Optimism plays a great role in shaping your resilience.
Seek help: Finally, share your feelings with a loved one or a professional and get the emotions off your chest.
