In November we celebrated 30 Days of Mindfulness and a focus on Self Love: appreciating and valuing one’s self-worth to encourage and promote a healthy mindset. Now, with February upon us, and the focus on relationships, what better time to focus on the most important relationship in your life; the relationship with yourself.
How we view and perceive ourselves, and how we believe others perceive us, can make the difference between having a super rotten life, and a super awesome one. People who are constantly worried about what others think of them, and how they blend in rather than stand out can create a lot of anxiety about the future, and worry about the past.
That's where Self Love comes in. Self Love is not about being self-absorbed or narcissistic, it is about tapping into our uniqueness, connecting to our well-being, and nurturing ourselves so we can find our happiness. We practice self-love so we celebrate our strengths, become resilient, and truly shine. Self-love is always evolving and ideally, should be practiced daily. Practicing self-love can be challenging though; especially during times of great change. You need to be patient, kind with yourself, and persistent.
Being mindful is an important step towards self- love. This week we are offering ideas and resources to inspire you to become more aware, appreciate yourself, help navigate change, and find your bliss. To get the party started I have included a few suggestions below. I invite you to check out our website and share your ideas in a comment. I look forward to engaging with you and best wishes for a super awesome February!
