The Joy of Loving Myself

We’ve heard it all before: “All you need is love” and “Love is all you need.” How many songs, conversations and practices really focus on being kind and loving to ourselves? In today’s “stressed out” world we are bombarded with the reality of unhappy or unhealthy relationships, careers, finances, health issues and other challenges. How do you really feel about the state of your inner world?

If you are plagued with self-doubts, pessimistic people or negative situations, then you probably could use a big boost of self-love. The more you love yourself, the easier life becomes! Igniting your positive personal power or Inner Success puts a smile on your face and stimulates positive thoughts, beliefs, feelings and actions, which are the foundation for a thriving, abundant life. Raising your self-esteem means being happy with who you are and feeling your true inner love, joy, peace, bliss and abundance. This connects your innate passion and energy to meaningful actions that manifest your dreams!

Are you suffering from negative self-talk such as this: I’m bad, unlovable, dumb, not OK, not worthy, not good enough and unimportant? These beliefs create emotional, physical, mental and spiritual pain. How sick and tired are you with thinking and acting in ways that sabotage your relationships, career, finances, health or life in general? Shifting negative decisions into positive self-talk lifts your spirits and your life!

One way to start loving yourself more is by accepting who, where and what you are right now. Be grateful knowing your life adventure is a special gift from God that has been given to you to enjoy. Expect good outcomes and fill your heart with appreciation for your own accomplishments, gifts, talents and uniqueness.

It’s important to pamper yourself and feed your body healthy food and good water. Hanging out with nourishing people with good energy who enjoy and support you is love magnified! Happy people attract kindred spirits who want to laugh and play. Remember life is a game, so take yourself lightly, like the angels. Allowing life to flow makes your lessons easier and your personal growth accelerated. Take one day at a time and stay grounded in who you are and what’s important. Be spontaneous as well as mindful and focused in a balance that works for you.

Take a moment to breathe in a deep sense of knowing that all is in divine order in your universe. If a part of you needs healing (emotions, body, or spirit), breathe in love from the Universe or healing energy from the earth and send positive thoughts, a healing color or a gentle touch wherever it feels good.

New and meaningful adventures await us all in the new millennium. It’s time to join together in creating everyday miracles that bring healing to ourselves and each other. Let’s generate love instead of hate, compassion instead of indifference, and positivity. Only then will the higher energetic vibrations of love and peace heal our cells (selves), our families, communities and the nations of the world and ensure that our precious Mother Earth will thrive and support all sentient beings.
