Document Summary
Two dimensions of self theory who am i. Less anxious the working model is, the more capacity there is for joy. Anxiety tensions need to be contained, addressed, managed in order to be content, experience joy. Self esteem generation- care more about our self esteem than ever before, realize how important it is. Relatively high se: liking/loving oneself, respecting oneself, trust that you can be successful, relationships can be a source of joy, positive working views of other, see themselves as a person of worth. Relatively low se: negative internal dialogues. Anticipate the worst outcome for every situation: negative expectations, self critical/self loathing, anxious about competencies, whether they matter, appearance. Anxieties about self: create a world in which others become critical of them, create barriers. Content message- literal words people say when they speak to us. I love you, you"re valuable, you"re a super kid. Meta-messages- information that is conveyed through how others talk to us.
