How to Love Yourself More
1. Set aside some time to think through why you feel you’re not good enough, or don’t deserve to be loved. Then actively counter each of those reasons. This is a really crucial step for you to take.
2. Make a list of at least 5 of your positive traits and strengths. Each day, add at least 2 more items to your list.
3. Commit to only saying positive and affirming things about yourself – your appearance, your personality, your abilities, and so on.
4. Each day, tell your body how much you appreciate it.
5. Hold your head high, smile, look people in the eye, and always speak slowly, and with confidence.
6. Have the courage to list and face some of the worst mistakes you’ve made, or some of the challenges you’ve found hard to overcome. Then, gently admit to yourself that you are not perfect. In fact, none of us is perfect, and we all start from different places in life. What has been hard for you may have been easy for someone else. Choose to not be so hard on yourself.
7. Go through your closet and experiment with your clothes until you find something that you feel really good in. Choose to wear that – and to buy other outfits that make you feel good about yourself. Get rid of clothes that lower your self-confidence or self-esteem.
8. Learn to listen to your body and mind, and treat what they are saying with kindness and respect. If you are tired, rest. If you are feeling emotionally drained, then withdraw and do something that will help to build you up.
9. Do something nice for yourself each day. Go for a jog, get your hair or nails done …. Whatever makes you feel good about yourself.
10. Give yourself permission to say no to the things that make you unhappy, or that sap your energy.
