The words self and love have evolved for me as I experienced life.
Love is everything, it's respect, it's loyalty, it's truth, it's care, it's creation, it's family, it's unity, it's nurturing, it's safety. Self is all the layers of you, the layers of your trauma, the layers of your insecurities, the layers of your shame, the layers of your joys, the layers of your pleasure, the layers of your mind, the layers of your body. To know yourself is to create a perfect plane to plant those seeds of love.
Lets dive into these tips!
Tip #1: Learn Yourself
Take time for yourself. Explore what you want to experience in the real world and not just see it online. You deserve it ! Write down your goals or create a vision board. Learn about what brings you joy.
Tip #2: Practice Faith
Trust in your heart and soul that the God you follow has your best interest and your life has a purpose. Don't settle for a life you aren't happy with.
Tip #3: Try Your Best
No one is perfect, therefore be easy on yourself and try your best. In any life venture whether it be a new job, new relationship, and/or experience, TRY YOUR BEST.
Tip #4: Don't Judge
It is damaging to ourselves when we judge others. We all have different journeys and different lessons to master. Help the individuals if you care enough but don't talk about them and judge them.
Tip #5: Eat Well
We all have our comfort foods but make sure that's not the only thing you consume, eat a salad with your meal.
Tip #6: Push Yourself
When everything is telling you that you CAN'T do it just try to do it even if you fail the first time.
Tip #7: Invest In Your Beauty
We all have heard the saying when you look good, you feel good. I agree with this statement that's why you should buy products that are going to help you feel the best in the long run. I would recommend using our hair products, vegan skin care, and buying fresh fruits and vegetables.
Tip #8: Get Massages
Massages are relaxing and pampering. We all deserve to be pampered every now and then.
Tip #9: Spend Alone Time
My favorite alone time is car time. It's a place for me to think and enjoy my own company. When we spend time with ourselves we can discover more about ourselves.
Tip #10: Treat Yourself
YES! Treat yourself, at least once or twice a year. Buy yourself a nice outfit, go out to eat, take that trip... Be selfish one time and just spend on YOU.
Tip #11: Dress Up
Put on a cute outfit and do your makeup and go out even if it's to the grocery store, looking at yourself dolled up will give you extra confidence.
Tip #12: Learn
Be open to lessons we encounter in our day to day life. I would like to give you an example of a lesson life may teach you.
Tip #13: Free Yourself From Judgement
In life the fear of being judged holds us back sometimes, we get scared to express our true self because of what others may say about us. You FREE yourself from the judgement of others by knowing your WHY. If it makes you happy and brings no harm to others FREE YOURSELF! Be you, sing, dance, draw, be creative, be you.
