When working on returning to self-love, there is a point where you’re going to have to be willing to look at your shame. As human beings, we all carry shame. We usually picked it up in early childhood and carried it forward in our lives into adulthood.  Shame is harmful. It does nothing but cause us to feel bad about ourselves. To believe that we’re not worthy – that we’re not valuable – that we’re not good enough.

But when you bring up shame and look at it consciously with love and compassion and kindness, you’re able to transform that shame into self-love. And change those negative beliefs born out of that shame into more positive, expansive beliefs based on your feelings of self-love. Self-love is imperative, but in order to get there, you’ve got to be willing to look at your shame. And realize it is something that you picked up along the way that you no longer need. It’s all about self-love, people.
