The Importance Of Self Love

I’ll be frank as I have been in all of my bog posts.  Self love has been a core issue in my life.  It is still something I work on even as I write this.  For a long time, I didn’t posses much self love at all, because truthfully I was in a place emotionally I didn’t feel I deserved it.  This has been one of my biggest ego hooks.  Now that I have been set on the path of my life purpose working with the angels and guides to uplift and inspire others and assist in the process of removing the blocks to the love that exists within people; I know that I was meant to have the experiences I created in my life, so that I can relate to others who may be experiencing the same. Self Love

Letting go, being gentle with myself and being silly haven’t really been easy for me, not since childhood, but my angels and guides continue to help me understand that fun and play are not just something to do for the simple pleasure of it, but that acts of self-love, pleasure and fun are vital to leading a balanced and joyous life.  I have found a common theme amongst clients that I work with; people carry a significant amount of guilt over allowing ourselves to let loose, have fun, be silly relax ect.  We condition our minds often unconsciously to believe that life is hard, we must work all hours to be successful.

We convince ourselves that there isn’t enough time in the day to get important tasks done.  We believe we must work hard to “get some result “out there” that we think will make us happy, 

We set high standards for ourselves and then when we don’t feel we meet out goal, we sit in judgement, we blame ourselves and we create a type of hamster effect where we’re always in search of the elusive next result, and we certainly forget to love ourselves in the process.

I’ve made a pact with myself to be silly at least once a day,  I also set aside time everyday to honour myself – no matter how busy I am or what my deadlines are.  Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t easy especially on the nights that I feel I should keep working.  It takes effort, but I’ve spent years doing the opposite.  I already know that doesn’t work!  The more I can show myself forgiveness and compassion, the happier I feel.  And if I treat myself with respect, I will attract people who will treat me the same way.
