I believe that loving oneself is one of the basic lessons, teachings. And that we must learn this early on.
What is self-love? Of course, it is not to consider oneself as superior, perfect, or privileged by looking down on everyone. To love oneself means first loving oneself in the mirror. Accepting your entire physical self. How unique we are. We are unique. The way we look and the way we live.
It's not only about what we see in the mirror. Like adoring all our organs. I'm talking about loving your lungs, liver, and intestines. Every hair, nail, tooth, and eyelash. Ever considered? Your organs are made up of living cells. What to do with life? We contact them. What kind of communication is best? Of course, full of love. Consider our mothers' flower-talking. And he always opened them with joy. Love your organs, brows, and eyes as if they were a newborn. Let them bloom like a flower.
Studies now show how healing these studies are. On how cells evolve in Bruce Lipton's book The Biology of Belief Dr. Joe Dispenza discusses in his book You Are the Placebo how the perfect interaction of cells, tissues, organs, and the invisible field of consciousness that governs the system in the body can be changed by our thoughts and love.
I wasn't aware of such affection till I had a bad illness and realised it. On the brink of death, I discovered that self-love is the source of all kindness and beauty. Love is the greatest anti-stress, the fastest medicine to go into the blood. What if I exploited this intrinsic source for myself first? Try it.
I don't know, do you ever criticise yourself? Are you one of those people who works hard, bears all the burdens, complains constantly, and believes nothing has changed? Begin with liking yourself. In my storey, this is self-acceptance; I am not now well.
After that universe, I call my life the period of enlightenment, since I recognise that self-love is a virtue. I took his brows, eyes, lines, scars, and everything else I disliked and enveloped myself in cotton. I've let go of any self-blame.
So do I, with all my flaws and inadequacies. Sure, I have objectives and desires. Of course, I strive to excel in all I do. But as I grow in understanding and tolerance for others' errors. I make room for myself to do so. This is my right. It's how I learn. What works for me is that my mistakes are not a burden, but a stepping stone. I intend to let go of my fear of what others will think, my self-imposed boundaries, my self-limiting beliefs, and my concern about doing my work correctly. Every time I feel myself getting overwhelmed, I pause and create rewards for myself. It's like going out into nature and chatting to myself.
I first adore myself. And does one injure one's beloved? Deliberately hurt one's own child? No. I treat myself like I would my own child, protecting him from danger. From my nail to my hair strand. Love yourself as you would a child or a cat.
Dr. Bree Brown says in his book "The Gifts of Not Being Perfect" that we can increase our self-esteem by modifying our inner monologue.
“Perfectionist self-talk: Argh! I'm chubby. I hate my looks. To be worthy of love and belonging, I must change.
I want this for myself. I wish to improve my health. The scale doesn't reflect affection or acceptance. To be worthy of love and belonging now, I will summon strength, compassion, and connection. I want to take care of this. “I can do it.”
Isn't it part of loving yourself to value yourself? Belief in one's own storey, self You'll see, you'll heal, and life will become easier.
