It is helpful to strengthen our self esteem by accepting that it's normal to experience discomfort in certain situations and it is human to make mistakes.

Mindfulness can positively affect self esteem as it allow us to control our minds and emotions by acceptance of our thoughts, feelings and behaviours without judgement.
