When working on returning to self-love, you’ll have to look back at your life. You’ll have to look back at the things you thought you had healed or perhaps shoved down or moved past and realize you’ll have to bring them to the surface again. This time, we need to heal them with love and compassion. We all have things that happened to us when we were children. Most of the time, we shove them down or ignore them until…..
When working on returning to self-love, there is a point in your journey that you’re going to have to own your own inner demons. Now, what I mean by inner demons is, let’s say you’ve been working on the bully who’s been in your life. Who’s wounded you, and who you’ve called forth again and again and again? At some point, you’re going to have to look at your own inner bully. Or let’s say you’ve worked with jealousy in…..
When working on returning to self-love, there will eventually come a point when you actually like yourself— really like yourself. You will like your sense of humor, generosity, and kindness. You will like your ability to pick yourself up and move forward even after you’ve fallen again and again. Really like yourself. It’s going to be a moment when you actually like who you are. Who you’re becoming and who you hope to be. We heal our past and let…..
When working on returning to self-love, you have to understand the power of laughing. Whether it’s laughing at yourself for the mistakes you’ve made. Or laughing at the negative beliefs that you’ve allowed to create your life so far. Laughing at the fact that you have these inner orphans you’ve ignored and are now aware of. You’re going to have to learn to laugh. The power of Laughing is a very powerful tool. It takes you right out of despair…..
When working on returning to self-love, you’re going to have to become your own best friend. Self-love actually is about love and learning how to love yourself. Now that doesn’t mean it’s about going to the spa, or eating well or going to the gym, or setting boundaries. All of those things are very good things to do but that’s really not about self-love. Self-love is about learning how to love yourself. How to be compassionate with yourself, How to…..
When working on returning to self-love, there will come a point when you have to heal your emotional triggers. Now, we all get triggered in the outside world. Someone pushes your emotional button, someone says the wrong thing, or someone really bugs you. Well, there will come a point where you have to own that this is your emotional homework, not the person who’s triggering you. So, heal your emotional triggers. That’s the only reason you’re responding to the trigger……
When working on returning to self-love, you’re going to be expanding your sense of empathy. Now, empathy is something that we desperately need on this planet, and I believe it is actually growing. Expand your sense of empathy when you catch yourself judging or being critical of another person. I want you to step into their shoes – that old saying, walk in their shoes – will show you what they’re going through and allow you to have compassion for…..
When working on returning to self-love, you will eventually realize that you cannot make a decision for another person. You only make decisions for yourself. We like to give our opinions and judgments on what other people should be doing. But in truth, if you’ve done your self-love work, you realize you have no right to tell someone else what decision they should make. Each person is on their own journey, on their own path, and the rock that they’re…..
When working on returning to self-love, you’re gonna realize one important fact: all the work you’re doing – all the healing you’re doing – all of the negative beliefs that you’re changing – all the orphans that you’re healing and bringing forward – all the work you’re doing inwardly is to receive love. In truth, everything else is window dressing. We remove our walls from our hearts to receive love. We change our negative beliefs to make them more loving…..
When working on returning to self-love, you have to understand the fundamental part of self-love is love. Self-love is about loving you. It’s not about receiving love from other people. It’s about tapping into the love that resides within your heart. Self-love is about loving you. Now, this can seem easy to a lot of people, but I found that people are able to tap into their anger or rage, or their fear. However, when it comes to tapping into…..
