How do you show someone you love them? How do you love yourself?
Love yourself like a pro and others will follow suit.
Love yourself first and foremost.
Aren’t these the ways you show someone you love them?
- you go out of your way to provide what they need (affection, support, space…)
- you listen respectfully to their concerns, providing constructive feedback
- making it fun for them to be with you, so you think of different things you
could do together. Love yourself first. - you encourage, uplift and affirm them
- you nurture them, encouraging them to look after their health
(to eat well, exercise…) - surprising them with small gifts, treats, sms messages or cards
- if you need to correct them, you do so constructively and respectfully
- if you accidentally hurt or upset them, you apologise and make it up to them
- you support their growth and freedom
- you show interest in what they do
Do you provide these thoughtful actions to yourself?
- you go out of your way to ensure you get what you need (space )
- you listen respectfully to your concerns, providing constructive feedback in your journal
- having fun just by yourself, so you find things you enjoy doing
- you encourage, uplift and affirm yourself in your journal
- you nurture yourself, and look after your health (eat well, exercise…)
- treating yourself to small gifts (without guilt!)
- if you need to correct yourself, you do so constructively and respectfully
- if you hurt or disadvantage yourself, you find ways to make it up to yourself
- you support your growth and freedom
- you respect what’s important to you and allow time and space for it
