You Are Worthy Of Your Own Love

Hello family 💛

Hope you are having an amazing weekend.

Hope you are taking time out for yourself to rest and recharge.

Here is something for you to think about as the weekend is ending.

Hopefully it inspires and reminds you how amazing you are as a being experiencing this human journey.

I want you to think back to a time in your life when you were reminiscing on a past moment.

Like the times when you went through some old photos.

Maybe a picture of yourself when you were a baby or younger.

And you think to yourself... I was so cute. I was so young. Time has passed by so fast.

And you get those sudden emotions that inhabit your body when you see it in the moment.

Think about that feeling.

What was it?

Maybe a feeling of joy. A feeling of slight sorrow. Warmth.

You may think about how adorable you looked.

Then you think back on what was going on at that time.

And you may think about how hard you were on yourself. How mean you may have been to yourself. Or how unaware and innocent you were.

And there's usually a hope or a wish that begins to bubble up.

That hope or wish usually sounds like... I wish I could tell myself. I wish I could say to that version of me...

I want you to feel into the energy of that wish. That hope. That feeling you want to impart to that part of you in the photo.

Now here's the key.

Those are the moments when you experience or can practice self-love.

That's what self-love feels like when practiced intentionally.

When you actually have self-love or a loving relationship with yourself, you reduce the amount of time between you and that feeling.

You're able to look at yourself in the mirror today and maybe not love what you see perfectly or completely... but you can still access that compassion.

All self-love really is, is being compassionate towards any inner experience that feels painful.

But it comes from a deeper sense of understanding.

A deeper sense of acceptance.

Like being able to put yourself in the shoes of the moment and realizing you were only able to do as good as you knew how to.

Being able to see beauty in what may seem like imperfection.

When we look at an old photo of ourselves, we can see that we deserve love.

But being truly self-loving right here, right now, in the present... is being able to see that this version of you today also deserves that love.

The self-love and grace you are able to give yourself will determine how well and how fast you move through the moments that seem the hardest to navigate.

Always remember you are full of magic.

You are constantly evolving.

And you are part of something much bigger than you can imagine or comprehend.

From a holistic standpoint, things are always working exactly how they should.

So in those uncomfortable and difficult times... always remember to take some time to be present and show yourself love.

Because you are worthy and you deserve it.

Something to carry with you into the new week.

Does this resonate?
