Hello. I think I’ve written about “taking care of myself” several times in the past, but this time I’d like to think about what it means for me to love myself.
Even though I said I should take care of myself, I didn’t really know how to take care of myself. If I don’t really understand what it means to cherish myself, I don’t even know how to love myself.
I think love has two aspects: “self-love” and “love for others.”
The first step to self-love is accepting yourself and listening to your feelings and desires. I have written before about “listening to your feelings and wishes” (Think again about attraction）First of all, start by making your own small wishes come true. This becomes self-love.
“Making small wishes come true” means making small choices in everyday life that make you feel excited. For example, if you have a choice between A, B, and C, choose the one that excites you the most or makes you feel good. It leads to trusting yourself, being confident, and having pride.
In order to increase self-love, it is important to cultivate a relationship with yourself. Did you say, “Oh, I don’t really understand what you’re talking about”?
In other words, by being aware of your emotions and feelings and speaking positive words to yourself, you can become closer to yourself.
Even though we seem to know a lot about ourselves, there are many things we don’t actually know. That’s why by making a small wish within yourself come true, you will be able to understand yourself and think, “Ah, this is what I wanted to do.”
Specific methods include watching your favorite TV or movies, cooking, playing games, going for a walk, cleaning, and meditating. It’s also good to take care of your body before going to bed at night. The habit of taking care of your body after a day of work also means loving yourself.
In this way, taking care of yourself is actually self-love. By loving yourself, you will realize that you are happy, and you will be able to live a more fulfilling life than ever before. I’m sure.
I also want to value myself more.
