7 secrets to self-love

Hi!
I’m declaring today SELF-LOVE Day!

Love is a Universal language that you can find everywhere you go, but is often lacking in our own hearts.

On this journey called life, love is always a beacon of hope, peace and joy.  However, learning to love ourselves unconditionally, can sometimes be challenging.

I know it was for me.

Learn to love yourself

Learning to love and appreciate all aspects of myself took healing parts of me that we’re tucked away in dark corners (Some of which I didn’t even fully realize were there!)

Yet, once I did, it created new levels of peace of mind and freedom from within.

Here are 7 important keys to self-love that I’ve learned over the years through my own personal journey and through my work with folks from all different backgrounds, countries, and languages.

1. The Foundation of Giving and Receiving Love 

Ever heard the expression, you can’t pour from an empty cup? This rings true in love more than anywhere else. If you can’t love yourself unconditionally, loving someone else in the same manner becomes a distant dream. It’s about filling your own cup first to overflow into the lives of others.

2. Acceptance Leads to Unconditional Love 

Loving yourself unconditionally paves the way for accepting your entire being, even the parts you may not appreciate as much. When you eliminate self-judgment, it opens your heart to accept others without conditions, fostering deeper, more meaningful relationships.

3. Emotional Freedom for Deeper Connections

Unconditional self-love means no longer suppressing your emotions, a common defense mechanism developed from childhood criticisms. By embracing your feelings, you unlock the door to profound connections and the potential to find that soulmate-level intimacy.

4. Teaching Others How to Love You

How you love yourself sets the bar for how others will treat you. Through self-love, you establish boundaries, invest in personal care, and show up more fully in every aspect of life. This not only reduces resentment and stress but also safeguards your well-being.

5. Confidence and Positivity Shine Through 

Self-love fuels confidence and a shift towards positive self-talk. This newfound self-assurance means less concern over others’ opinions, reduced likelihood of getting offended or festering resentment, and an overall happier existence.

6. A Beacon for Healthy Relationships 

When you love yourself, you naturally attract and nurture relationships that mirror this love. Your self-worth discourages settling for less than you deserve, leading to healthier, more satisfying connections.

7. The Key to Lifelong Happiness 

Ultimately, unconditional self-love is the secret ingredient to a fulfilling life. It’s the foundation upon which all aspects of well-being are built, leading to lasting happiness and a sense of completeness.

Embracing yourself in self-love is not a luxury but a necessity for anyone seeking to enrich their life and relationships.

If you find yourself struggling with self-love or facing recurring patterns in your relationships that leave you feeling stuck, remember change begins with you.
