Fall In Love With Yourself

/ Inner journey, Life Lessons, Mind, Self Love

hands forming a heart

Once you discover how to fall in love with yourself, you can’t help but treat yourself with respect and thoughtfulness.

While seeking love, many people tend to look outward rather than inward. Yet falling in love with yourself can be just as wonderful an experience as falling in love with someone else. While the idea of falling in love with ourselves may be thought of as conceited or selfish, choosing to fall in love with who you are is a powerful act of self-love.
 
When you fall in love with yourself, you can’t help but experience a wonderful sense of discovery. You begin to look at yourself again through fresh eyes, becoming more attentive to the little details that make you so unique. Once you discover how much there is about you to fall in love with, you can’t help but want to treat yourself as lovingly and respectfully as you would treat anyone who is special to you. You start to give to yourself more because you become more attentive to your own needs and desires.

Choosing to fall in love with yourself is a very personal process that takes time. There is no magic wand you can wave to make this happen. But there is the magic of your intention and the power of your actions, whether you are taking the time to do the activities you like, speaking to and treating yourself with respect, taking inventory of all of your wonderful qualities and accomplishments, or nurturing yourself with plenty of rest and self-care. When you fall in love with yourself, you begin to see yourself more positively, appreciate your unique outlook on life, and treat yourself in a more nurturing way. In loving yourself, you are acknowledging that you are special and deserving of love. Best of all, you are giving yourself one of the greatest gifts you have to give another. You are giving yourself the gift of your love.

Take some time to think about the top 5 outcomes you want for this years Christmas season. They could be things like: more family time, less running around and more relaxation, see Christmas lights, don't do neighbours gifts, have people bring a plate to share for your Christmas Day meal, etc etc.⁠

🌳There are seasons in your life in the same way 🌳There are seasons in your life in the same way as there are seasons in nature. ⁠
⁠
There are times to cultivate and create, when you nurture your world and give birth to new ideas and ventures. ⁠
⁠
There are times of flourishing and abundance, when life feels in full bloom, energized and expanding. ⁠
⁠
And there are times of fruition, when things come to an end. They have reached their climax and must be harvested before they begin to fade. ⁠
⁠
And finally, of course, there are times that are cold and cutting and empty, times when the spring of new beginnings seems like a distant dream. ⁠
⁠
Those rhythms in life are natural events. They weave into one another as day follows night, bringing, not messages of hope and fear, but messages of how things are.⁠
⁠

⁠
I do love how like nature we can ebb and flow in our own rhythms & sometimes our seasons of life don't quite match the physical season. ⁠
⁠
I am in the cultivating and creation stage and looking forward to sharing new ideas and ventures with you.⁠

❇️What season are you in?⁠👇
THE BEST ADVICE I EVER GOT. ⁠ ⁠ Thanks to @dan THE BEST ADVICE I EVER GOT. ⁠
⁠
Thanks to @dan.thehuman, a few years ago he shared some top advice – that completely changed my life. ⁠The advice?⁠
⁠
Movement is Medicine!⁠
⁠
When I first began to exercise with my mindset at that time was crap, I had limited mobility and was morbidly obese.  I saw exercise as a quick fix, for me to do until I felt better. ⁠
⁠
His advice helped me transform from a couch potato who saw exercise as punishment to a woman who loves to move her body 5 to 6 days a week – one step at a time! No quick fixes.⁠
⁠
🤸‍♀️Movement boosts your mindset and energy levels and more importantly allows you to feel connected to your body and can help you determine where your energy and time should be spent. ⁠
⁠
💕When you choose movement that:⁠
• supports your body and is sustainable you’re investing in your future health and self. ⁠
• you love rather than endure you make time for it in your life and this creates consistency.⁠
⁠
🐢Remember,⁠
⁠
•Movement is not a short-term fix; it’s a lifelong habit!⁠
•It’s your journey – don’t compare your progress to anyone else’s and take your time⁠
•Small steps applied consistently over time yields results⁠.⁠
⁠

🌻Everyone grows & develops at a different rate. 🌻Everyone grows & develops at a different rate. 

Give yourself permission to grow. 

Give yourself permission to grow beyond people around you. 
You may outgrow some people all together or in a certain capacity.

Don't allow people that refuse to grow hold you back. 

Save this post as a reminder.

Do you believe that reaching out to someone, e.g. Do you believe that reaching out to someone, e.g. a coach somehow indicates that you aren’t enough? That it somehow means you’re incapable and not smart enough, strong enough or good enough? ⁠
⁠
-Well let me assure you, the people who come to coaching are all of those things, extremely capable, smart, strong and a whole lot more.⁠
⁠
-They choose coaching because they are ready to accelerate their personal or professional lives and working with a coach helps them to achieve their goals faster, easier and with better results than they could on their own. ⁠

🤸‍♀️Act Your Age! How often do we hear th 🤸‍♀️Act Your Age! How often do we hear this phrase – facetiously or not? 

When someone says this to me and (trust me I have heard this a few times in my life) as an adult!

🤸‍♀️I remind myself that:
-Each of us experience aging in a different way.
-Age isn’t something to be acted, but experienced. 
-Expressing our inner joy is fulfilling!
-Having a little fun in life doesn’t mean we let go of our responsibilities of being an adult. 

What are your thoughts on this phrase?
