Why self-love is important?

Sharing the joys and wonder of life with another being who lights up your world is absolutely priceless. There’s nothing like it. It’s one of the greatest joys on Earth, and something every human being deserves to experience.But it’s extremely hard to find this happiness with another if you’re in a relationship with a need to be filled up by someone else.

Being needy, insecure, and trying to gain approval and a sense of self-worth from your partner puts a huge amount of pressure on them, and it’s a major turn-off. It’s an unachievable task because feeling inherently loved and worthy comes from within. Not from your partner.

An outstanding love doesn’t come from two half-fulfilled people coming together to make one whole, complete life. Outstanding love comes from two whole people coming together to share and enhance their already full and beautiful lives. An amazing relationship comes about when we own and appreciate who we are and completely accept the other person for who they are.

So loving and putting you first is not selfish, it’s necessary. It’s imperative to creating the wonderful love and life we all desire. And let’s get something straight—loving yourself doesn’t deplete the love tank; it actually fills it up so we have even more to give.


How Does Self-Love Create A Great Relationship?

When we truly love and respect ourselves, we’re free from doubt and endless worry, so we trust our feelings and decisions. It allows us to be courageous and authentic. We begin to live from the heart and play a bigger, kinder, more generous version of life. We forget our self-imposed boundaries and dare to dream larger and wilder.

We stop focusing on negativity and become present to the beauty and possibilities within and outside of ourselves. We realize how great our lives are and open the doors for gratitude to flow in abundance. We start to emanate happiness, confidence, playfulness, peace, and positivity.

It’s electric and like a powerful magnet to others. Your ideal partner will be drawn to you like a bear fresh out of hibernation looking for his first meal. And once you find that special one, love will be easy. It’ll be natural. It’ll flow freely without judgment or pretense. It’ll inspire and nourish you. Your lives will be even richer, happier, and more vibrant than ever.

And you’ll wonder why you didn’t take the time to fall radically in love with you just a little bit sooner.


What Does Self-Love Really Look Like?

- It’s prioritizing your dreams and making an effort to do things that inspire and light you up.

- Saying no to things you don’t agree with or that don’t fit in with your plans.

- Deciding to spend time with people who support, encourage, and motivate you to be the best version of you.

- Owning your thoughts and opinions and refusing to be swayed in order to please others.

- Being gentle with and talking kindly and sweetly to yourself.

- Having the courage to try new things that you’ve always wanted to experience.

- Taking time out to nourish your mind, body, and soul—exercise, eating well, alone time.

- Trusting your intuition and honoring your own truth.

- Spending money on things that make you feel amazing while investing in your future.

- Daring to believe that you’re capable of achieving and creating the life you visualize.

- Choosing to see the good and refusing to let others bring you down.

- Gifting yourself forgiveness and accepting yourself for all of your beautiful and not-so-cool quirks and qualities.


So go ahead! Shower all the love you can on yourself.
