Join me as I explore what it means to honestly love ourselves – and how that has a ripple effect out into the world.
I argue that self-care is not selfish, self-indulgent or self-absorbed. I talk about the differences between self-soothing, self-care, and self-love. What is involved in truly loving ourselves? And loving ourselves through all of it — not only when life is good and we feel happy, but also during those inevitable periods of uncertainty, stress, darkness and difficulty. I discuss a multi-layered process 1. starting with awareness, 2. challenging the “norms” and expectations placed on us by society and others, and 3. diving in deep inside ourselves to ask (and answer): What do I really need?
While it may not be easy, it can be life-changing and beneficial not only for ourselves, but for the ones we love. Ultimately this ripples out to the entire global community of which we are all intricately interconnected.
