How to begin your SELF LOVE journey

in #life8 years ago (edited)

Can you truly say you love yourself? Not just on the outside but every single particle and being within you?

In a world where loving yourself is a strange and often looked down upon subject, be the person that decides to love themselves and truly wants to live life to the full. 

So how can you do this? Although I can't tell you how you can love yourself every day for the rest of your life, as that is truly down to you, I can tell you how to kick start your thought process into the big journey. 

Before you can love yourself now and for the rest of future, you need to let go of all the negative things that may have happened in your past. Anything you try and shut away, maybe a negative friendship or a hardship you had to go through or maybe even a regret. You need to forgive yourself

You can try and love yourself as hard as you want, but until you let go of the past, of things you may have done or may not have done and chuck those memories away. These experiences allowed you to get where you need to be today which is great, however they don't need to hold you back any further. 

Start by writing down anything you feel is holding you back from your past (or maybe even now). Make a list and really visualise each memory, as this is the last time you're ever ever going to dwell on it. Now (using a Tony Robins technique) you need to put all those memories in a visualised 'bin' and set it on fire. 

Separate yourself from a younger more naive and less experienced you, and create this new self loving figure. 

How can you expect to do well in life if you don't value or love yourself? Stop dwelling and start loving yourself today and see the difference. 

This photo of me really makes me happy as I look super smiley and happy! It is important to be able to look at photos and say yes I love myself, yes this moment I look happy and I love it! 

Thanks for taking a look, let me know how you show yourself self love and help me improve myself even further!

NB: Thanks to 'robynlouise12' for kick starting my thought process into self love :-)

Great post. I would say though that you also need to love yourself as you are right now. Maybe you could elaborate on that in a future post?

Yes its still very much a work in progress thats why Ive not really commented on the right now. I am very much trying to accept myself and hopefully I will be able to do so soon :-) thanks for taking a look!

Great article:) Great you mentioned Tony, he gives awesome coaching

yes he is so great! I would love to be able to go to one of his teachings in person but I believe its slightly out of my price range at the moment. Definitely something I would love to do though!

Yes, thats a dream to me too, but i guess for now books and youtube will do for me!!

I believe in you!

good to see you so happy

thanks happiness is key!!
