LOVE YOURSELF FIRST

The Most Neglected & Powerful Act of Self-Care

Many of us are fully focused on taking care of health, eating nourishing and hygienic food and trying to be active in this field.  But not in meditating and taking some time for self care. The above are wonderful acts of self-care, and they are necessary and important. But there’s one act of self-care that is very often neglected, and it might be even more important than all the others that is the practice of loving yourself. If you will not love yourself nobody will do it for you.

In fact, this is so often neglected that “loving yourself,” is also very important aspect of one’s life and you will wonder many people don’t know what that means. Many of us have never consciously done it. If we have, it’s so rare as to be a forgotten memory.

But it’s my belief that we should do it throughout the day, like trying to drink 8 glasses of water. We should give ourselves at least 8 doses of loving ourselves every day. We should go for daily walk, yoga or exercise whatever suits you but you need to do it due to which overall our health will improve and also self confidence. This is especially for married women who really don’t care about themselves. They always stuck in family. They have lots of responsibility and so but please remember you also have one life , it’s good to love and show care to our family and everyone should do it but taking care of yourself is equally important.

What is this “self-love”? Imagine pouring out love in your heart to someone you love dearly - what would that feel like? Now try doing the same thing for yourself. That’s self-love, and it’s a completely foreign concept for the vast majority of people

Why it’s So Important

Think of the people in your life that you love and respect. How do you treat them?  You are kind to them, patient with them and with their thoughts and ideas, and you forgive them when they make a mistake. You give them space , time and opportunity ; you make sure they have room to grow because you love them enough to believe in the potential of their growth.

Now think of how you treat yourself. Do you really give yourself the love and respect that you might your closest friends or significant other? Do you really take care of what your body, your mind needs? It’s so simple the less you love yourself, listen to yourself and understand  yourself, the more confused , angry and frustrating your reality will be.

But once when you begin and continue to love yourself more, the more everything you see, everything you do, and everyone you interact with, start to become a little bit better in every way possible.

This is the basic problem that most of us face, every single day. We don’t love big portions of ourselves. We beat ourselves up, all day long. We stress out about uncertainty because we don’t think we’re good enough to deal with it. We don’t trust ourselves to stick to something, because we’ve formed a really bad picture of ourselves over the years. We get angry at ourselves for eating too much, drinking too much alcohol, messing up in a social situation, getting distracted and watching videos or playing video games, and so on and so on. We are harsh on ourselves, and don’t like how we look or who we are, in many ways.

This affects everything in our lives. It makes us more stressed, less happy, anxious, depressed, stuck, procrastinating, less happy in relationships, less focused, more likely to reach for comfort foods or distraction or shopping to comfort ourselves from the stress and pain of being who we are.

But if we could give ourselves love, it would start to heal all of this. Everything could shift. We could deal with uncertainty and chaos and difficulty in a much more easy way.

Giving ourselves love is such an important act of self-care, and yet is rarely ever done.
