Love is not only exciting but absolutely necessary, not to mention comforting! To give yourself Love might be very different from what you imagine it to be. When your body is sick and tired you need to give it an extra dose of Love.
You’re the only one who can limit yourself, and you’re also the only one who can give yourself permission to live better. You must Love yourself in order to get closer to your own happiness and joy. Love is joy!
Give yourself what you would like someone else to give you, in the form of healthy, tasty food and the time to do things you enjoy. Live your life, not anyone else’s. That way you can share all the good energy, strength, and Love you have created in you.
Some gifts to give yourself:
- Cook at home instead of eating out
- Eat foods that are vibrant and natural coming from Mother Earth
- Reduce fast food and sugar
- Eat good quality food – even chocolate!
- Clear your stomach properly – detox a few times per year
- Forget that soda is something you drink.
- Add a squeeze of lemon to your water, or drop some fresh berries into mineral water
- Meditate for a few minutes each day
- Write a letter to yourself in which you apologize for not practicing self-love in so long. And forgive yourself.
- Do something active! Every day! Stretch for 5 minutes, walk for 10, do a DVD workout at home if you can’t get to a gym. Turn on your favorite music and dance in the living room!
Maybe you will light that fire in your heart again, and simply through these little actions, give yourself permission to be your own priority, and then have so much to share with others.
