We often criticize and judge ourselves harshly and not give ourselves any credit! How is that loving behavior? We all have positive attributes and have something to contribute to society. It’s time to recognize yours. When you love yourself you exude confidence and attract wonderful things into your life. You’ll begin to see situations through optimistic eyes.

Write a list. Think about all the positive things you have to offer and write them down. That includes even the smallest of things you may not consider to be impressive. Here are some ideas: (feel free to use these because they probably apply to you!) you’re a good friend, a great listener, a fantastic cook, fabulous dancer, superb conversationalist, loyal, trustworthy, wonderful gardener…etc.

Remember all your accomplishments. Write another list of the great things you’ve done. Maybe you’ve run a marathon or just begun an exercise regimen. Whatever the accomplishment is, it’s significant and unique to you because of the experiences you’ve had in your life. Don’t compare yourself to anybody else. They have a completely different path.

Accept yourself. This means everything about you! We’ve all made mistakes…and maybe more mistakes. Learn from them and chalk them up as experiences in life. Let go of the things that are done and unchangeable. Your new life begins this moment so move forward and start learning how to love yourself.

Use mantras. When you feel down, repeat the mantra: I love myself unconditionally and recognize the extraordinary person that I am! Think of any mantra that resonates and feels right to you. You’ll have higher chances of success if you repeat mantras that resonate with you otherwise the words are empty. If it feels strange to say “I love myself,” then start of with something you believe to be true like, “I care about my wellbeing” or “I’m worthy of love.” Once your subconscious mind believes that you’re worthy of love, you’ll begin to accept it into your life.

Give yourself a pep talk. We’re often more loving and accepting of our friends and more critical of ourselves. Not anymore! Get rid of the negative self-talk and start with loving and positive messages. When something goes wrong don’t beat yourself up over it. Comfort yourself and remember that it will work out in the end.

Treat yourself. Do nice things for yourself! Enjoy a movie, a cookie, paint your toes, or take a trip to the beach. Do things you enjoy!

Self Love

Return from How to Love Yourself to Spiritual and Alternative Healing

The question remains to be answered. Do you know what it is to love yourself? Do you know how to love another person? In some instances, it may take emotional healing from past wounds to help you in your quest towards personal growth.

Developing Self Love

• Respect Yourself. Treat yourself with the tender care you deserve. Listen to your body and your feelings. Eat only when you’re hungry, rest when you’re tired, meditate, and treat yourself on occasion. Become more self aware.
• The World is Your Mirror and You are the Mirror to the World. Your outlook on life is a reflection of what you’re feeling inside, and what you’re feeling inside is how you see the world. If the world seems cruel and unjust, that’s what you’ll bring into your life. If you expect to receive love and success in your life, your powerful thoughts will manifest positivity. It’s proven that your thoughts are what creates your life. Practice creating only productive thoughts.

• Know What You Deserve. Know you deserve the best. Others treat you the way you allow them to treat you. With self love you’ll make sure others don’t cross boundaries that hurt you.
• Reflect on Your Relationships. How do you view others? Do you treat others well? We’re all trying to get through life with as little struggle as possible. Even if you don’t like someone, don’t mistreat them. The negative energy you put out there harms you before it exists your body. Don’t hurt others and you won’t hurt yourself.
