How To Love Yourself
1.
STOP ALL CRITICISM
Criticism never changes a thing. Refuse to criticize
yourself. Accept yourself exactly as you are. Everybody changes. When you
criticize yourself, your changes are negative. When you approve of yourself,
your changes are positive.
2. DON’T
SCARE YOURSELF
Stop terrorizing yourself with your thoughts. It’s a dreadful
way to live. Find a mental image that gives you pleasure (mine is yellow
roses), and immediately switch your scary thought to a pleasure thought.
3. BE
GENTLE AND KIND AND PATIENT
Be gentle with yourself. Be kind to yourself. Be
patient with yourself as you learn the new ways of thinking. Treat yourself as
you would someone you really loved.
4. PRAISE
YOURSELF
Criticism breaks down the inner spirit. Praise builds it up.
Praise yourself as much as you can. Tell yourself how well you are doing with
every little thing.
5. BE
KIND TO YOUR MIND
Self hatred is only hating your own thoughts. Don’t
hate yourself for having the thoughts. Gently change your thoughts.
6. SUPPORT
YOURSELF
Find ways to support yourself. Reach out to friends and allow
them to help you. It is being strong to ask for help when you need it.
7. BE
LOVING TO YOUR NEGATIVES
Acknowledge that you created them to fulfill
a need. Now you are finding new, positive ways to fulfill those needs. So,
lovingly release the old negative patterns.
8. TAKE
CARE OF YOUR BODY
Learn about nutrition. What kind of fuel does your
body need to have optimum energy and vitality? Learn about exercise. What kind
of exercise can you enjoy? Cherish and revere the temple you live in.
9. MIRROR
WORK
Look into your eyes often. Express this growing sense of love you
have for yourself. Forgive yourself looking into the mirror. Talk to your
parents looking into the mirror. Forgive them too. At least once a day say: “I
love you, I really love you!”
10. LOVE
YOURSELF...DO IT NOW
Don’t wait until you get well, or lose the
weight, or get the new job, or the new relationship. Begin now, and do the best
you can.
When you know who you are, you
will love yourself.
When
you live what you know, you will respect yourself.
When
you do as you are guided, you will trust yourself.
When you
love, trust and respect yourself, you will be whole and happy and free.
