The greatest love affair that you will ever have is with yourself. The sad truth is that it’s far more common to fantasise about finding your soulmate than connecting with who you are.
Self-love is the foundation for many blessings in our lives. It sets a precedence for how we allow others to treat us, the decisions that we make and our outlook on life. When we feel love for ourselves, the world loves us back.
Be completely honest with yourself and answer this, do you truly love yourself? Do you know your worth? Do you set healthy boundaries with other people?
Everybody should answer yes to these questions with confidence, however many don’t. It’s a sad fact that so many of us have unhealthy relationships with ourselves. So how can we resolve this and change this negative mindset?
Affirming Love
The more that we speak positive, loving affirmations to ourselves, the more we feel it inside. Affirmations can bring us endless joy and abundance. They can dissolve negative beliefs and instil a sense of happiness and peace.
It is essential to our wellbeing that we only entertain positive thoughts about ourselves. If you think negatively then you will bring more into your experience.
Common limiting beliefs are:
‘I’m not good enough’
‘I’m not worthy’
‘They could never love me’
‘I hate myself’
Every one of those statements does you a disservice. They create resentment and hostility toward oneself that is counterproductive to our development. If you’re guilty of having similar beliefs then love is the answer.
Use loving affirmations to turn your life around. Become the best version of yourself and think nothing less than what you are. From this moment on, make it your mission to fall in love with yourself.
