The Art of Self Love
May 11th 2009 00:43
When we sometimes look back at all our past "failures" and grievances, (can't help wallowing in self-pity once in awhile), certain parts of our body starts to tighten up. Maybe the throat gets a bit choked up, sharp pain around the shoulder blades, or slight and subtle physical discomfort are experienced. Emotionally, we can actually feel old resentment and anger building up, like stubborn old dust piling on top one another and we are powerless to fan them away.
I personally believe that our emotional and mental patterns affect our physical well-being, and Lousie Hay's book ' You can Heal Your Life" has become my holy scripture. I had my nose so deep in that book that I can still smell the paper. It has since been my Christmas and birthday gifts to all my lucky and unsuspecting loved ones.
Anyway, I've become a huge affirmations-convert after that and has seen the results it has in my life. Since I am blessed with good health and love, my primary focus was increasing my financial flow.......and I've seen the results of that after doing my affirmations with conviction, joy and love diligently.
Below are some very very basic, ultra simple affirmations that will help you in many ways. There are so simple that they leave plenty of room for us to doubt their effect. However, give it a shot, do it a hundred times a day, increase it to 200 by next week, repeat it, sing it, humm it.make it your mantra while you are eating, cooking, showering, walking the dog, flossing your teeth or trimming your nosehair........WHATEVER ! but do it from the heart, with lots of love, faith and sincerity.
I am loving myself.
I am accepting myself.
I am approving of myself and all that I am.
I am at peace of where I am in life at the moment.
How many of us have actually said that to ourselves? Let alone believe in that? It is unfortunate but also part of life that our social and cultural conditioning have left us feeling inadequate, and in need of others' approval before feeling worthy. Well, self-love starts from the self. When we truly deeply feel that we are worthy and deserving, our outer life situations starts unfolding as we wish. Old resentment and criticism slowly drops away, we become more accepting towards others and ourselves.
So give it a go ! Say your affirmations, bless yourself, bless your life !!! Spend even if just 5 minutes a day thanking and sending love to every single cell in every part of body. How long ago has it been since we last did that ???
Lots of Love
