If we are to live according to our true selves, we must first do some exploring to discover who we are.
Knowledge of how to find your inner self doesn't come all at once, nor does it come overnight. Most of us will never completely understand our inner selves.
The first thing you want to do is get into a relaxed state of mind. If you know a particular relaxation or meditation technique that works for you, use that to quiet your mind.
Once you are relaxed, bring your awareness to a certain part of your body and affirm to yourself that you are connecting with your inner self. I like to focus on the center of my chest because that seems to be an area where I have a lot of sensitivity, particularly when I feel excitement or distress.
Knowing how to find your inner self will play a great role in how you interact in your relationships with others and is a very important undertaking before you attempt to form a lasting relationship.
It is only through understanding your inner self that you can begin to deal with your issues, remedy past mistakes and learn how to feel good about your "self." As you work to develop the correct mindset on how to feel good about your self image, then how to find your inner self becomes easier.
