Self love is the act of genuinely loving who you are without reservation. When you achieve it, you feelloved unconditionally, and you don’t need the approval of others. More often said than done, self love is a term you’re bound to encounter on social media. Then why is it so hard to love ourselves? Sadly, we often treat ourselves in ways that we’d never treat others. The key is to essentially, remember that everything in your life flows from your relationship to yourself. Affirmations have a heart-warming way of healing us from within. All we have to do is allow ourselves that space to speak our affirmations.

But before we begin, let’s look at what affirmations are. Affirmations are positive statements that can help you to challenge and overcome self-sabotaging and negative thoughts. When you repeat them often and believe in them, you can start to make positive changes.

Learn to treat yourself like someone worthy of love, respect, and compassion, and your life will flow more effortlessly and joyfully than you can imagine.
