Dyspraxic girls might experience isolation and this could potentially lead to low self-esteem. However, continuing to practice self-love, especially when one is faced with doubt and fear. Self-love can come in different forms. For example, talking positively about yourself or to yourself. It can nullify feelings that can pose to be uncomfortable. Another form of loving oneself is doing a self-care routine. If you are unsure of what to do for your routine, I recommend starting with this sample routine and you can customize it to whatever you would like to do.
