Self Love is your Super Power!
In our society, we're taught from a young age that we must always take care of everyone else first, then ourselves.
The problem with this concept is that eventually this causes burnout, self depreciation and lack of proper energy to take care of oneself, let alone another.
The best thing we can ever do for ourselves is make sure all of our basic needs are taken care of first, and this includes self care and loving ourselves.
So many of us are tired, worn out, unmotivated and struggling because we constantly take care of others first. This leaves us unable to be as effective in taking care of others or the tasks ahead of us. This can effect our decision making and the ability to think clearly. This can effect our emotions and the ability to listen to our gut feelings.
This can also have an impact on our health - leading to all sorts of physical ailments and "mystery illnesses."
We lose our personal power by always putting our own basic needs last. We often tell ourselves when I get this done, or that done, or take care of this person, or any number of tasks we have to take care of. The thing is, nothing ever gets done. Everything around us is a work in progress. So we have to make this time for ourselves.
It is time for us to take our power back!
Make that time for yourself!
Start putting energy into what you really need to survive, to thrive, to live your best life!
This can be as simple as waking up 10 minutes early in the morning to give yourself time to center and set yourself up for the day, or as complex as scheduling yourself a 2 hour spa day to rejuvenate your mind and body!
When we can love ourselves, truly love ourselves, we can then in turn love others even better than before!
