Learning to Increase Your Self Love

​How is it that some people are able to give themselves the gift of time and others struggle to even take a lunch break? 

Many of us go through life putting everyone else’s needs before our own, finding it hard to say no, feeling like we ‘should’ do this or ‘must’ do that, read other people’s minds and decide that they are holding us to impossible standards, work tirelessly to try to feel ‘good enough’.  Sound familiar? 

The feeling of not being enough is epidemic in the modern world,  fueled by social media, glossy magazines and competition from others (who also don’t feel enough).

So what is the secret of those few who seem to be able to show themselves loving kindness and follow their own inner guidance, who take the time to nourish themselves physically, emotionally and spiritually?

This is a huge subject much bigger than the space we have here but some of the first steps are as follows:-
  • Become conscious of the things you do habitually that deny your own wellbeing
  • Give yourself permission to begin to attend to your own needs
  • Forgive yourself for past mistakes (after all we are all only human!)
  • Accept yourself for who you are
  • Believe in yourself
  • Make a decision to start to show yourself more love and care
  • Take some action NOW

One way to start is to make a self care menu which is a list of the things that really nourish your soul.  Things like walking on the beach, having a warm aromatherapy bath, reading a book in the sun, whatever it is that lights you up and replenishes you.  If you have trouble getting in touch with your needs try this little exercise.  Close your eyes, bring your attention to your breathing, place your hand on your heart and ask yourself – how do I feel today, what do I need? 
​
