🌼| SPIRITUAL SELF ESTEEM |🌼

In today’s society self love is a necessity. Growing up we have learned to feel ashamed about liking ourselves hindering us to speak to anyone outloud about your own goodness. As any being I have had my own battles with self love. I have struggled with comparing myself to others and being unhappy with who I am due to the voices of others. I was inspired by an old friend of mine to write this article expressing the steps we have encouraged each other to let our spirits soar and enrich our lives with love towards ourselves and others.

Self love often gets confused with narcissism. Loving yourself doesn’t mean that your are self obsorbed or only thinking for yourself. Self love is about taking care of yourself the best way you possibly can. Owning your power and acting from a place of kindness towards yourself. Within rivatalizing your own spirit you will be ready to love others.

So with all this talk about loving yourself how does one actually put self love into practice? What happens when we actually do?

1. Owning your life: We hold the source of the power that changes our future, careers, compassion, relationships, passions, authenticity and empathy. Taking responsibility for our own actions is a huge important part of any persons life. Recognising that we are our own source of all happiness. You have the power to change our own life. 

2. Give yourself peace: When you give your spirit stillness and calmness, you begin to accept yourself. You begin to accept the strengths and weaknesses of your spirit unconditionally.

3. Empower yourself: Stop mirroring yourself with self doubt. Believe in, hear and feel your power within yourself. Understand what really matters is how you feel about yourself and not the opinions of others.

4. Renew your spirit: You begin to let go of all those negative forces in your life. Forces like shame, anger and blame. Replacing them with positive forces like creation, power and ownership.

5. Living up to your potential: By allowing to live your own purpose in life you are allowing yourself to show up in this world. Don’t be afraid to pursue what fulfils you in life.

6. Connect with the world around you: Let go of loneliness. Embrace that deeper connection with yourself allowing your spirit to create oneness with the world. This includes others.

7. Embracing your humanity: Allow yourself to be human and understand that we aren’t perfect. Invite vulnerability into your life and accept mistakes and failures you have. 

8. Overflow of your love to others: The more you look at yourself with love the more you begin to love and accept those around us. Let go of the thoughts create a negative impact on your reality, becoming lovers of what is and accepting it including other people. 

9. Being enough for yourself: Acceptance of others is not worthy of your time. Understand that you where not out here to impress anyone. Know that you are enough! 

10. Accept your life: Undersand and get to know your reality instead of fighting with it and blaming it. Love is in every corner. Hold on to your live with a lovingly loose grip.

11. Accepting your failures: Find courage in your own spirit and growth by accepting your failures. Your significance is not dependant on what we do and don’t produce in life. 

12. Allow yourself to grow: The more you grow the more you spread love and joy. Let go of keeping yourself small in this world. 

13. Handle the stresses in your life: When you love yourself you become more aware of your stressful thoughts and how you are reacting to them when they come up. Question the truthfulness and choose to transfer them into calmness. Enriching your spirit into stillness and peace.

14. Securing yourself: Feel save knowing that you are always there for yourself. 

15. Bring harmony and peace to others: Understand that your self knows how to love better and spread it towards other people. As humans we attract to significance, spaciousness and peace in our relationships.

16. Living life abundantly: Remove yourself from scarcity and fill your life with abundance without the need to push and fight for it. 

With this in place you will begin to let your spirit grow. Expressing yourself creatively, inspiring yourself to what your spirit celebrates. No longer ruled by fear and letting go of competition living freely. When you chose love you become a stress free being, improving the overall quality of your own life.
