Lacking in Self-Love When I helped three people face the end of their lives, they all had the same regret. They were of different generations and lived different lives, but they all had the same regret: They wished they loved themselves more. I, too, lacked self-love, and after years of reading and doing spiritual, metaphysical, and personal growth work, I finally decided to get to the root of the problem. – My lack of self-love. I was learning that self-love…..
Self-love vs. Lack of Self-love This video shares what happens when two people go through tough times and how they handle it differently. Both cry and yell at the universe for the dark times. Both feel alone during the tough times, but the sameness ends there. It becomes a story highlighting that self-love matters. Lack of Self-love The woman lacking self-love ends her evening crawling into a ball and feeling all alone in her despair. When she awakens the next…..
SPIRITUAL TOOLBOX We all have a spiritual toolbox that we can use. The toolbox contains all the things we need to expand our sense of self-love. I have added many items to my toolbox over the last 30 years and hopefully taught you a few of them – Beginning with my book’s top three tools we all possess – Our Imagination, Our Emoti0ns, and Our Higher Self. The imagination to use in mediation. Our emotions we use to understand what…..
One Minute of Loving Talk. In this video, I urge everyone to begin their day with one minute of loving talk instead of starting your day with worry or being overwhelmed. I use the “I am” fill in the blank. I am smart enough. I am talented. I am good enough. I say to do one minute to begin your day with self-loving talk vs. doubts or fear which is what many of us do. One minute can be difficult……
Practice Self-Gratitude I stress in this short video why practicing self-gratitude can aid in connecting with self-love. In an early video, I highlighted the importance of beginning your day with the “I am’s” -I am powerful, good enough, talented, etc… This begins your day with self-love talk. Now I share why you should end your day with self-gratitude. Pick Three Things I impart the importance of ending your day by choosing three things that make you glad you are you……
Focus on The Positive. When working on returning to self-love you will have to add to your spiritual toolbox. One of the things you will need to add is the power to always find the positive, especially during the tough times. This can be a hard tool to get used to during difficult times. It is so easy to wallow in what is going wrong in your life. However, the reason we try to do this is, is because where…..
Do You Respect You? Many people complain that other people do not respect them. I ask do you have self-respect, or are you looking for it from others? Unfortunately, many are looking for it from others. Everything starts with the self -self-love, including self-compassion, self-gratitude, and, yes, self-respect. Do you honor your feelings? What about your boundaries? Do you listen to what your mind is saying to you or your heart? I had a friend who proved my point……
Stop Believing People’s Words. The only reason you let other people’s words into your heart is that there is part of you that believes it is true. You may fight their words, to begin with, but when you hear to over and over – it gets into your heart. I heard the same thing over and over, and yes, I fought it. But pieces of their words locked into my heart. Why did I let that happen? I let it…..
What do you believe about self-love? This video stresses the importance of everyone finding self-love – for themselves as well as for the world. To learn to be in love with oneself, to be delighted by oneself, and to enjoy being who you are. Highlights going into meditation to discover what you believe about self-love. Is it selfish? Does it take you away from loving other people? Is it your right to love yourself? This video asks you to understand…..
Be Brutally Honest – In order to find self-love, you are going to have to be honest. If it is a belief then understanding why you believe it. Who told you it was true? Is it still working in your favor? If your inner committee is active and making you judge or criticize yourself or judge and criticize another person, you have to be honest. Tell yourself that your inner committee is on overdrive and needs some of your attention…..
