Practice Self-Love - The End of the Month Motivational Message - February

Did the month of February treat you well?

Did most of the things go as you had expected?

When things didn't go as planned, how did you respond? 

Our self-talk is most critical when we make mistakes or find ourselves in difficult situations. It's funny how it's so much easier to hate yourself than love yourself.

Practice speaking kindly with yourself and letting go of unhelpful beliefs such as "I can't do anything right" or "bad things keep happening to me".

Write about all the things you did well this month. 

Perhaps you managed to exercise every week. Or maybe tried something out of your comfort zone. 

Appreciate yourself for all the efforts you put in towards improving yourself every day. Practice celebrating our own strengths. 

Love is an Action

Remember, love is an action.

A healthy dose of self-love gets you through all the ups and downs of life. 

Our lives are not perfect. There are times when you're disappointed with yourself and feel less than your best. But that's exactly when you need to embrace the power of self-love.

Loving yourself doesn't always come easy and that's okay. Love requires effort and patience to thrive. 

You're dealing with the impact of traumatic experiences, your self-doubts, unexpected obstacles in your way, and the uncertainty of the future all at once. 

You need to show yourself more kindness when you're vulnerable. 

Building a Foundation of Self-Love

A strong foundation of self-love allows you to build better relationships with others.

Your relationship with yourself largely impacts how you relate to others. Show up for yourself and take responsibility for your happiness.

No matter what happens, you need to take care of yourself and protect your peace. 

You are worthy of being happy.
